OCPD is NOT a form of the psychiatric disorder OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder) but rather is a personality style characterized by a rigid character structure.

Extractions: Anxiety Disorders by William T. Goldman, MD Anxiety symptoms and disorders are the number one health problem in America, ranging from a simple Adjustment Disorder to more difficult and debilitating disorders such as Panic Disorder and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. According to the most recent data, the lifetime prevalence for anxiety disorders as a whole in adults is about 25%; the frequency in children is unknown, but felt to be significantly underreported and under-diagnosed. More specifically Social Anxiety Disorder has a lifetime risk of 17%, while Panic Disorder occurs in approximately 1-3% of the adult population. Mental Health Information for Children Anxiety is a subjective sense of worry, apprehension, fear and distress. Often it is normal to have these sensations on occasion, and so it is important to distinguish between normal levels of anxiety and unhealthy or pathologic levels of anxiety. The subjective experience of anxiety typically has two components: physical sensations (e.g., headache, nausea, sweating) and the emotions of nervousness and fear. Anxiety disorders, when severe, can affect a child's thinking, decision-making ability, perceptions of the environment, learning and concentration. It raises blood pressure and heart rate, and can cause a multitude of bodily complaints, such as nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, ulcers, diarrhea, tingling, weakness, and shortness of breath, among other things.

The compulsions are repetitive and senseless. The stress and anxiety can be best described as a continuous mental scream. more... "One evening I was walking along a path, the city on one side of me and the fjord below. I felt tired and ill. I stopped and looked out across the fjord the sun was setting, the clouds were turning blood-red. I felt a scream passing through nature it seemed to me that I could hear the scream. I painted this picture, painted the clouds as real blood. The colors screamed." (Edvard Munch, 1863-1944) The Scream, 1893 OCD Bulletin Board

What are some common obsessions? ... How is OCD treated? Printer-friendly version Email this article Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is an illness that causes people to have unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and to repeat certain behaviors (compulsions) over and over again. We all have habits and routines in our daily lives, like brushing our teeth before bed. However, people with OCD have patterns of behavior that get in the way of their daily lives. Most people with OCD know that their obsessions and compulsions make no sense, but they can't ignore or stop them. Return to top Obsessions are ideas, images and impulses that run through the person's mind over and over again. A person with OCD doesn't want to have these thoughts and finds them disturbing, but he or she can't control them. Sometimes these thoughts just come once in a while and are only mildly annoying. Other times, a person with OCD will have obsessive thoughts all the time. Return to top What are compulsions?
Extractions: @import "../styles/advanced.css"; Skip navigation Obsessive-compulsive disorder is a common psychiatric condition with a prevalence of up to 1% of adults, in which the patient engages in repetitive actions (compulsions, e.g. hand washing) or trains of thought (obsessions, e.g. counting rituals) which he knows are irrational but which, if he stops, lead to incapacitating anxiety. Standard first line psychiatric treatment is either clomipramine (an older tricylic antidepressant with strong effects on the neurotransmitter serotonin) or one of the newer specific serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs). A recent meta-analysis [1] attempts a systematic review of the evidence for this approach. Since OCD is a chronic, relapsing and remitting condition, where treatment effects are generally modest, the review is rightly restricted to randomised controlled trials. The authors describe a strategy of computer and manual searching to identify as many as possible, and found as many as 53.
