Very helpful ... extremely insightful . Thank you so much for providing valuable content on KZread .

very informative and i'm very grateful for the treatments and strategies. I've noticed how detrimental my correcting, rigidity and perfectionism has impacted my romantic relationships, friendships, and ability to work with others and I really want to work on being more understanding and less judgemental and irritable. I LOVE how you explained one of the differences between OCD and OCPD in terms of how it FEELS for the person. I definitely experience irritability more than anxiety, especially when it comes to others not doing things "my way."

What if they aren't "doing it right" evidenced by the fact that you are constantly fixing things up afterwards??? eg.......the dishwasher is not "loaded right" and the dishes need to be re-washed!!.......😕

How important is “doing it right”compared to the other persons dignity?

This was very helpful thank you. What recommendations would you give to the spouse of someone with OCPD? Have you done/could you do any content on that?

Thank you for the info although I just can't envision myself using any of the strategies without feeling very uncomfortable since my thoughts are so rigid and seemingly hardwired in my brain 😢

thanks Amy - that was a good tutorial. will try the experimenting - i hope i can stay with it.

I am wondering if hoarding can also be part of the OCPD symptom list. The persons I know who display the set of OCPD symptoms (especially ego-syntonic rigidity) I’ve read in DSM also cannot throw anything out until it is completely used up, read thoroughly, completely falling apart, rusted through, etc., so they always have an enormous mess around them, look a mess, wear ragged clothing and carry many bags anywhere they go.

Yes…and if it’s not perfect it’s painful for them

OR, you might just be one of the few people that have any goddamned sense!
