Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCD)

Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) frequently emerges in late adolescence or early adulthood and is one of the most prevalent personality disorders. OCPD is marked by an intense focus on perfection, a strong sense of order, and a rigid need for control.[1] Individuals with OCPD often find themselves engrossed in these fixations to such an extent that they face significant functional impairments in various facets of their lives.[2] The characteristics of OCPD are consistent over time. Individuals with OCPD may be inflexible, often resist change, and can be overwhelmed by minute details, rules, and schedules, hindering their productivity.
