My sister is a first-hand victim of OCPD abuse. As a witness to this struggle, I lived with her for 7 years during this period of my college years. And it still sends shivers down my spine to imagine what she went through, her emotional weakening, and finally, her claiming her life back.

Is OCPD Narcissistic, are they OCDs, and do they sometimes have Paranoid personality disorder?

Yes, for all three and, in fact, more. OCPD is one of the most complex personality disorders to live with and the hardest to cure. Because the person with OCPD actually thinks the rest of the world is wrong.

What the Hell Is This OCPD?

If you are new to this term, Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD) manifests itself as excessive control bordering on narcissism, hypocritical attitude where rules exist but only for others, and a very unrealistic view of loyalty in a marriage. They also have borderline OCD, with an obsessive nature to keep their personal spaces and hygiene clean. They could not care less about the surroundings or the rest of the home.
