Obsessive Compulsive Disorder vs Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder – What’s the Difference?
These two disorders have similar names but are very difference. Obsessive compulsive disorder is an anxiety disorder and obsessive-compulsive personality disorder does is a part of your personality make-up. That personality make-up does not (necessarily) create anxiety. People with OCD are usually in distress and seek treatment, whereas people with OCPD typically seek treatment because someone else demands it.
