A lawyer insists on making coffee several times each day. His colleagues do not realize that he lives in fear that the coffee will be poisoned, and he feels compelled to pour most of it down the drain. The lawyer is so obsessed with these thoughts that he spends 12 hours a day at work four of them worrying about contaminated coffee. A man cannot bear to throw anything away. Junk mail, old newspapers, empty milk cartons all "could contain something valuable that might be useful someday." If he throws things away, "something terrible will happen." He hoards so much clutter that he can no longer walk through his house. Insisting that nothing be thrown away, he moves to another house where he continues to hoard. A 10 year old girl keeps apologizing for "disturbing" her class. She feels that she is too restless and is clearing her throat too loudly. Her teachers are puzzled and over time become annoyed at her repeated apologies since they did not notice any sounds or movements. She is also preoccupied with "being good all the time". These people suffer obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The National Institute of Mental Health estimates that more than 2 percent of the U.S. population, or nearly one out of every 40 people, will suffer from OCD at some point in their lives.

OBSESSIVE - COMPULSIVE DISORDER NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF MENTAL HEALTH DECADE OF THE BRAIN MESSAGE FROM THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF MENTAL HEALTH Research conducted and supported by the National Institute of Mental Health brings hope to millions of people who suffer from mental illness and to their families and friends. During the past 10 years, researchers have advanced our understanding of the brain and vastly expanded the capability of mental health professionals to diagnose, treat, and prevent mental and brain disorders. Now, in the 1990s, which the President and Congress have declared the " Decade of the Brain, " we stand at the threshold of a new era in brain and behavioral sciences. Through research, we will learn even more about mental disorders such as depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, panic disorder, and obsessive- compulsive disorder. And we will be able to use this knowledge to develop new therapies that can help more people overcome mental illness. The National Institute of Mental Health is part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Its beautifully poetic verses and breath taking words just settle in my heart and mind so warmly. Though the whole Quran has the power to make me feel like everything will be okay, there is one verse that absolutely wins my heart. That verse is "On no soul doth Allah place a burden greater than it can bear" 2:286. (This verse is also repeated in 6:152, 7:42 and 65:7).

Personality : Obsessive-Compulsive Characteristics and Traits Obsessives-compulsive are concerned with mental (self) and interpersonal (others) control and its symbolic representations. They are perfectionists and rigidly orderly or organized. According to the DSM, such people lack flexibility, openness and efficiency. An Obsessive-Compulsive is easy to identify. He or she are preoccupied with lists, rules, rituals, organization, perfection, details, and order to the point of paralysis. They are unable to see the wood for the trees and are constantly worried that something is or may go wrong. Actually, they place greater value on compiling and following rigid schedules and checklists than on the activity itself or its goals. OCDs are workaholics. They sacrifice family life, leisure, and friendships on the altar of productivity and output. Yet, they are not very efficient or productive. Some OCDs are self-righteous to the point of bigotry. They are so excessively conscientious and scrupulous and so unempathically and inflexibly tyrannical that it is difficult to maintain a long-term relationship with them. They regard their impossibly high moral, work, and ethical standards as universal and binding. Hence their inability to delegate tasks to others, unless they can micromanage the situation and control it minutely to fit their expectations. Consequently, they trust no one and are difficult to deal with and stubborn.

Individuals with OCPD are conscientious, scrupulous, and inflexible about morality, ethics, or values. They may force both themselves and others to follow rigid moral principles and very high standards of performance. They are inclined to be severely self-critical. These individuals are deferential to authority and rules. They insist on literal compliance, regardless of circumstances (DSM-IV, 1994, pp. 669-670). The ICD-10 has an anankastic personality disorder characterized by doubts, perfectionism, conscientiousness, checking and preoccupation with details, stubbornness, caution and rigidity. There may be insistent and unwelcome thoughts or impulses that do not attain the severity of an obsessive-compulsive disorder. These individuals are also inclined to experience undue preoccupation with productivity to the exclusion of interpersonal relationships; they engage in pedantry and strict adherence to social conventions; they are likely to insist that others do things exactly the way they do them (ICD-I0, 1994, pp. 231-232).
