So after some extensive research on OCPD after learning about it this past summer, I think I might have it. It is the first time in my life that a list of criteria made perfect sense. I have been going to therapy since November and it’s been fine, but now I’m wondering if I should bring up the subject of OCPD with my therapist. The main issue is I fear sounding like someone who is just “diagnosis fishing” if I bring it up vs. I might feel more legit if she came to the conclusion herself. But I also fear she may never bring it up and then I’ll always wonder. I really don’t want to be one of those people who tries to self diagnose or slap a label on my life, but the more I read the more obvious it seems. Those of you who have been formally diagnosed with OCPD, what was the process like for you? I sometimes doubt my own symptoms because I’m so afraid of diminishing the experience of people who have the disorder. I guess I sort of have a bit of an imposter syndrome going on. Anyone have any advice? Should I just face my fears and ask her about it?
