Question: How can I stop being so perfectionistic and obssesive.? .?
When I have projects at school or when I have to study for a test I go anal b/c I always feel that I have not done enough, that I can do more, what will happen if I don't do enough, nothing is ever good enough and then I just obsess and obsess over it. What can I do.?
If something isn't right it's totally wrong. And if I don't do something a certain way, I'll obsess and obsess over it. I am so tired of this life, of not being able to enjoy something without over analyzing everything. Health Question & Answer

Answers:
I tend to be the same way and have some mild OCD, but I am learning to beat it. The thing is, you have to analyze why everything is never good enough. I decided that I was too competitive and that means everyone else has to lose and I must win to be happy and that's not right. I still like to do good work, but I'm losing my need to be better than everyone else. Pride and humility are opposites and pride means I'm better and humility says that I see myself in a way that I see my weaknesses as well as my strengths. Humility is a very attractive quality in people. Pride makes us stand alone, but humility welcomes others and is happy when they do well, even if we don't. You probably are smart and can do things very well, but remember that others need to feel that they can excel too. You don't have to give up all competitiveness, just balance it out so it's not what you live for. Health Question & Answer
