See also: Do You Have a Schizoid Personality?
Asperger's syndrome and obsessive-compulsive personality disorder have many things in common: preoccupation with details, perfectionism, routines, and constricted emotionality.
For each criterion of anankastic personality disorder, decide how well it applies to you personally. If it doesn't apply at all, score it as 0; if it is somewhat applicable, score it as 1; and, if it describes you quite well, score it as a 2. The minimum possible score is 0; the maximum possible score is 16. For an ICD-10 diagnosis of F60.5 anankastic personality disorder, four criteria must be met. I measured myself as having a score of 4.
| ICD-10 wrote: | (a)feelings of excessive doubt and caution;
(b)preoccupation with details, rules, lists, order, organization or schedule;
(c)perfectionism that interferes with task completion;
(d)excessive conscientiousness, scrupulousness, and undue preoccupation with productivity to the exclusion of pleasure and interpersonal relationships;
(e)excessive pedantry and adherence to social conventions;
(f)rigidity and stubbornness;
(g)unreasonable insistence by the patient that others submit to exactly his or her way of doing things, or unreasonable reluctance to allow others to do things;
(h)intrusion of insistent and unwelcome thoughts or impulses.
Includes: compulsive and obsessional personality (disorder)
obsessive-compulsive personality disorder
Excludes: obsessive-compulsive disorder (F42.-) |

| Oops, I used Mozilla Firefox's AutoComplete to type the poll question, and I forgot to change schizoid to obsessive-compulsive! This just goes to show why I don't have an obsessive-compulsive personality disorder! |

Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder and obsessive-compulsive anxiety disorder are not the same thing! OCPD is a disorder of personality with traits of rigidity and stubbornness, an excessive need to do things just right (resulting in checking compulsively for mistakes), and basically a need to be right always. OCPD is classified in as a Cluster C personality disorder in the DSM-IV-TR with the other anxious personality disorders (i.e., avoidant and dependent personality disorders), but it is not an axiety disorder in itself.
In OCD, on the other hand, is defined by obsessional thoughts or images that create a reoccurring state of anxiety or disgust (as often is the case with a contamination form of OCD). OCD sufferers will repeatedly perform compulsive rituals to alleviate the anxiety; rumination is compulsive thinking, by the way. An OCD sufferer may feel "unclean" after touching something and feel the need to wash to remove the feeling of uncleanliness; they usually know it's irrational but feel compelled to do it anyway. An OCPD suffer, in contrast, may wash themselves because they believe it is the right thing to do, and they cannot deviate from this sense of morality at all. A person can have OCD and OCPD, but one does not imply the other. |

a - 1; b - 2; c - 1; d - 0; e - 0; f - 1; g - 0; h - 1 = 6
Not much in the way of this disorder then. |

Stress? In my experience, weird obsessions tend to form out of redirected energy from real-world worries. |
