Synopsis
Dear OCPD Truth and Deliverance Seeker: Here are to be found the MOST IMPORTANT questions (forty-nine, in all) on OCPD a person can ask of a professional therapist or mental health clinician, whether by the patient himself, or by the ‘victim’ of, sadly, another’s OCPD dysfunction. This wholly unique, pocket-sized book (really, a mini-course of instruction) presents a DUAL-PARTY PERSPECTIVE on the terrible nemesis (or, one’s worst enemy) of Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder (referred to, increasingly, by some, as Compulsive Personality Disorder, or CPD). Both the non-OCPD person’s, and the OCPD person’s, legitimate, and not-so-legitimate needs and desires, are taken into account, and compared and contrasted for greater understanding through carefully formulated questions pertaining to each individual involved in what can be, and often is, a highly dysfunctional and detrimental relationship. This regretful and painfully difficult situation, thankfully, need not, however, continue on as so. For those questions’ VITAL and tremendously PRACTICAL, and interpersonally-RELATIONSHIP-ALTERING Answers are reproduced verbatim from the author’s two highly-acclaimed OCPD pocket-books entitled ‘24 KEY Questions the Non-OCPD Person MUST Ask! (And Have Answered)’ and ‘25 KEY Questions the OCPD Person MUST Ask! (And Have Answered)’. When brought together, you have the pressing Heart-Needs of each party fully addressed, in a concise and clear manner, providing a perspective both eye-opening – and wholly RELIEVING! Further, this material is presented by the most prolific, in-depth, and clear writing OCPD Specialist in America today. His dedication and concern reaches out to ALL parties involved in OCPD situations as an ADVOCATE for their personal freedoms, and as a DEFENDER of their individual rights (whether the non-OCPD person, or the OCPD person, alike) within the context of healthful, sane, satisfying, mutually-beneficial relationships. Here, then, are just a few of the Vitally Important 49 Key questions this book addresses. For the OCPD person: When I feel the overwhelming need to control another person, what can I do to squelch (suppress, or silence) this feeling? When I feel the strong urge to criticize my spouse, or coworker, or friend, how can I refrain from doing so? When I find myself complaining, constantly, about world events, the weather, how a natural disaster is handled by authorities, government policies, school board decisions, or most anything else, how can I stop myself from continuing? What is the best antidote to my constant worrying and fretting? People tell me that I am so negative all the time, yet I honestly do not feel that I am. How can I become more aware of this tendency and to distinguish what is truly negative and what is not? And, How can I determine, being a ‘neat freak’, when I am investing too much time for my own good in working on organization, placement of objects, symmetry of arrangement, etc.? OR, for the non-OCPD person: What is the best, overall approach to adopt when dealing and interacting with an OCPD person? What is the single, most important thing you can do, now, to enhance your relationship with the OCPD person? What is the principal, liberating secret to remaining calm and composed while on the ‘receiving end’ of OCPD behavior? What is the never-failing, easily done, conditioning method you can utilize to modify an OCPD person’s behavior? What is the hidden, often unrecognized, motivation underlying all OCPD behaviors, and how knowing this will empower you? What is the easiest way to distract an OCPD person from their automatic behaviors, freeing you from a distressing situation? What is the surprising, yet most helpful, reason you should agree with an OCPD person’s mistaken beliefs, on occasion? And, what is the most effective phrase ever found to help ensure a harmonious interchange with the OCPD person? Answers that SURELY free! Sincerely, The New Frontier Health Research, Inc., staff.
