As a 50-year-old man dealing with OCPD in women, I have been on a quest to understand and support my loved ones who are struggling with this condition. It can be a challenging journey, but I have learned that patience, empathy, and education are key. It’s important to remember that OCPD is not just a personality quirk, but a real mental health condition that requires understanding and compassion. I have found it helpful to communicate openly, educate myself on the symptoms and treatments, and seek support for both myself and my loved ones. It’s not easy, but with love and understanding, we can navigate through the challenges of OCPD together.
