      @@DarthZ01 No, OCPD is indeed a disorder, and it has implications beyond just wanting things to be neat. I’m not a mental health professional, nor do I have OCPD, so I can’t speak much to it, but I can link a resource to it if you like. OCD can actually involve the “it has to be perfect” thing, or at least something similar to it, by the way; for some, things have to be “just right”- turning lights on and off an arbitrary number of times, opening and shutting a door, double, triple checking a door is locked, etc. Less a desire for perfection, more that an arbitrary set of conditions must be perfectly met, but I at least think that still falls under a reasonable interpretation of “it has to be perfect”
      Anyway, sorry if I seem correct-y or annoying about this, I just happen to quite care, due to a variety of personal factors. Take care!

      I agree. I feel like calling it OCD is reinforcing misconceptions about the actual diagnosis. Unfortunately I haven't found a good expression to use in its place, but for "This satisfies my OCD" in particular, people should just call it satisfying. The inverse is a bit harder, can't think of a quick way to cummunicate that you are frustrated or bothered by something being slightly off 🤔

    The thing about OCD is that everyone experiences it differently. For the books, I would have gone small to big. For the papers and receipts, i would have stacked them on top of eachother with the biggest at the bottom and smallest on the top. I can't tell you how many times I've gone to the store to pick out, say, a box of noodles or loaf of bread and I have to pick the one that my brain tells me to. Often times I spend more time picking out the "correct" item of each than I do actually moving to the next item.
    Edit: I always start going up or down a staircase with my right foot, and if I dont end on my right foot I have to do a little shuffle in order to make sure I do. I step over cracks right-foot-first. I open doors with 2 twists of the nob and I triple-quadruple check my door locks every night. There's an entire list of little things I do. Dishes are an obstacle for me because I have to rinse them 5 times before I'm satisfied that all the soap and gunk is off.

      The dishes is a big thing for me. Im a germophobe. I keep track of what things have been touched by whom and what they touched before, that could be harmful. Even in a bigger, quite populated room. So I know the perfect time to wash my hands and I don't touch things that can't be washed easily after I wash my hands. For example my jacket when i come home and i leaned against a window in a tram...
      When i was a kid, i always had to drink from a glass from a side, that hasn't been used before. I feared the lip marks. And as you say, there are so many more things.

      @@valecasini OCD isn't just perfectionism, that's just what people without it believe it is. OCD comes in different "clusters" of obsessions, (different types of intrusive thoughts that trigger your anxiety) a few of the more common ones being Harm OCD (having intrusive thoughts and anxiety about hurting people), Contamination OCD (anxiety about and intrusive thoughts involving contracting diseases, being around germs, etc.), Religious OCD (Having intrusive thoughts that are blasphemous to your religion), Sexuality OCD (intrusive thoughts about having a different sexuality [this does not mean that a person is homophobic, it can and does happen to anybody of any sexuality with this type of ocd]) just to name a few. A lot of people fall in multiple clusters. Most people with ocd also have compulsions that serve to alleiviate the anxiety from intrusive thoughts for a short period of time i.e. washing your hands repeatedly, flipping on and off light switches a certain number of times when you enter a room, checking and rechecking things like whethrr you turned off the stove or locked the door, or looking up the symptoms of a disease to see if you have to go to the hospital.

  • @susanna6462
    @susanna6462 2 года назад +107

    OCD also affects people in other ways than visual satisfaction. Such as: The amount of times you knock on a door. Which foot steps through a doorway. Checking the light switch exactly three times to make sure it’s off. Lining up items completely straight/level. For me. It also affects my dermatillomania (skin picking). I have OCD in that I must pick at anything that’s visually different on my skin: bumps, blisters, scabs, acne, etc. my mind wants it to be smooth and gone so it forces me to pick. But picking of course only makes it worse. A ironic circle.
    It can affect others differentLy and can be so bad for some that it becomes debilitating to their daily life.

    A bit late to be commenting this, but perhaps the title could be edited to include '(Off Centre dissatisfaction)' beside 'OCD' so that it's differentiated from the condition(s) that are so much more serious with many more underlaying elements than, as others have called it, someone just being fastidious (and as they mentioned, 'fastidious' instead of 'perfectionist' or 'perfectionism' as that implies a standard being strived for, not someone being excessively pedantic).
    This comment was inspired by several other comments that go into detail about the lives of some who suffer with OCD and/or similar conditions.

  • @Jig_up
    @Jig_up 2 года назад +364

    Just so you know (although I’m sure you’ve heard this before) a desire for “neatness,” perfectly straight lines, etc, is far more associated with OCPD, Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder, than it is OCD, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Plenty of people with OCD may not even care about neatness in the slightest- as someone with OCD, I’m actually quite disorganized. However, I understand that the phrase “being OCD” about something, or things like that has entered the common vernacular, and I don’t mean to be “blame-y” about it- in particular, if you’ve had no reason to research, I wouldn’t expect you to know, and (as I said) the phrase’s common use has been effectively entirely separated from the disorder itself. I just figured, given you’ve titled/themed a video around it, you ought to know. That being said, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend you change it to “This game will satisfy your OCPD” or anything like that- it would definitely feel weird, as it would feel less like you were referencing a common cultural phrase, itself rooted in a misconception about a disorder, and more like you were directly referencing a mental illness, which would definitely feel weird.
    Anyway, take care!

      Also even if everyone swapped from saying OCD to OCPD, it would still be wrong most of the time. It'd be more into the right direction, but most people don't have a disorder even if they like things neat. A disorder is something debilitating, not a minor annoyance.

    While I understand there may be confusion around what OCD is I would like to clarify. OCD is not just a general term for people who enjoy neatness and organisation, OCD can be very distressing for people suffering from it and you can’t just describe yourself as “OCD” as an adjective just for perfectionism. The disease consists of feeling a distressing need and compulsion to perform rituals and constantly check things out of an irrational fear of what happens if you don’t. Please use the term perfectionism when you’re referring to this context and leave the term OCD for cases where you refer to the medical disorder.

    How disturbing it is depends on the level of OCD. For example I sometimes wash my hands 3 times in a minute because I barely touched the dirty table or the edge of a trash can, but I wouldn't consider this OCD. For real OCD people I imagine everything is painfully disturbing until it gets perfectly balanced/arranged/placed ecc.

      Usually it's not just arranging everything so it's neat, it's arranging certain things because of what your mind tells you. There's some things that people with OCD arrange over and over and some things are just ignored. Sometimes they even hoard things to the point where it's messy, but as long as it's arranged in the way they want it, they'll do it over and over. It's about the overwhelming anxiety that takes over when you don't do it, not the satisfaction you get that leaves after a few minutes. One compulsion I can think of is the need to walk through every single aisle in order at the supermarket even if the thing you need is in the last aisle or in the aisle right beside you, or walking through a door until it feels just right. For me, if I feel something on one side of my body, I feel the need to make the other side feel the same thing. Lots of this time the feeling is pain, leading me to bruise myself all to get rid of the thoughts.

She was told that each of the (seven) keys would unlock one of (seven) doors outside her room. Inside each room was a child that she could take with her as she fled the building. But she was only allowed to leave her own room with one key, not all (seven). Desperate to find a way to save all (seven) children, the woman melted the (seven) keys together in the furnace to create a single key, hoping it would unlock all (seven) doors. But, of course, it did not work that way. Now her key opened none of the doors. Rather than leaving her room with a key to one life, she had taken with her the key to (seven) deaths.”

    I really like your vids and have been watching for ages but this is the one thing I have started to notice and really don't like in your content. I know it's not just you so many people do it, but please use a term like 'satisfying' or 'perfectionist/ism' because the way you describe OCD (a serious medical condition) is more in line with neatness/perfectionism - a personality trait and not a psych disorder that kills many people every year. It's here and there in other vids but this just seems really insulting, from the title to the description and vid itself - please just omit OCD in editing if it's not genuine discussion about the illness.
    Again, I know it's not just you it's probably one of the biggest stereotypes/stigmas in mental health. But you have a chance to use your platform to correct yourself and make a small but meaningful positive change.

    5:35 The plane ticket has a folded over corner, the cat telephone number below that has a ripped off corner which I would trim straight, the envelope is slightly open I would tuck this in and the items with text on them are being stored sideways meaning the text is harder to read
    8:34 The match box is open as you pointed out, the paperclips were out of line, the flash drive is missing it's cap, the tape measure is broken, the thread on the needle is hanging out of it's compartment and the needle should be stored separately and the batteries aren't level
    9:30 The pencils are all sharpened at different angles presumably using a different sharpener but they didn't put away in the junk draw like they should have done!
