History: cognitive
[edit]"David Shapiro (1965) remarked people with OCPD tend to focus thinking intensely on a particular subject in the manner of people with brain damage. They have great powers of attention to prevent their concentration wandering. This facilitates working on technical tasks or in occupations where concentration is necessary. However, the downside to this is hard to take a global view of a social situation, unable to take in the sweep with ease, but keep on focusing on one aspect of a situation, forcing themselves to fight off distractions.
Shapiro also noted people are driven by a sense of autonomy that turns them into their own project managers with this disorder. They are preoccupied with what they should do, and act on it. Lastly, their fear of making mistakes lead to the impact of losing the sense of reality.[1][dead link]"
^Removed this until someone can find references. (The link is dead and not reliable anyway). Also unclear on how this relates to the history of the disorder.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Fluous (talk • contribs) 19:59, 14 March 2013

OCPD in daily life.
[edit]Hi there. I've recently developed what I believe is OCPD in the past few months. My entire life I've had some issues with things that break away from my schedule or perfectly laid out plan, but most of the time it wasn't as bad. Last year in Springtime I began to become very stressed out because of something in my school life. After school ended my stress did not go away, as a matter of fact, it became much worse. I began to be anxious about friendships and I began to wonder about what my next year of school would be like. I tore down the posters in my room and picked out professional clothing for school, and then my friends began to worry. I was hitting myself HARD in the head at sleepovers when I got yelled at for something or grounded. I began to stop writing my book series I had been working on for 3 years and I thought it was because of something called neurotic perfectionism. But lately I've been developing symptoms of OCPD. The hiding emotions from peers, the mistrust of people, etc. I can't sleep if my room is dirty, or if my schoolwork isn't finished. I've become obsessed with my future and not stepping on cracks. My anxiety about my friends is getting worse. I don't want to go trick or treating without my parents because of anxiety that someone might kidnap me or harm me. It makes it hard to be my age. Lately I've started hearing a voice in my head that tells me what to do. How to talk, what to write. If I don't listen to it it screams at me and makes me delete my books or rip up my drawings or yell at my friends. I went to the counselor's office and he called me over-analytic and told me since there is a voice in my head he has to email my parents. After that my parents became more worried which was exactly what I DIDN'T want to happen. They hate it when I clean my room late at night or stay up studying. They're proud of me, but now they're worried, which makes the voice louder. I feel like I have OCPD and that it's getting worse, but I can't get any help. Any ideas? 73.207.114.168 (talk) 15:41, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
