Dear Members,

Research has shown that perfectionism is often a problem in depression.

Perfectionism is defined as:

    Demands perfection and rejects anything less; sets unrealistically demanding goals.
Could you please tell our community if perfectionism was part of your depression, and what made this better or worse.

Your comments will greatly help others facing these same problems.

Which came first, is the question, my depression, or my need to be perfect? I can trace my depression back to age 11-ish. Being a perfectionist? I'm not sure. I had always been able to live with the depression until being perfect at work started causing anxiety.

At work, I have never (even now) been able to cut corners to get done quicker. I always have to do each part of the task to the nth of a degree. Thanks, to travel nursing being much less stressful, the anxiety is no longer an issue.

At home, I used to think that I was just too depressed to be a perfectionist, as my house remained messy, but that may not be true.
Someone recently told me that maybe I am messy because I am sure that I will fail to be perfect, so I just don't try.

When I have somehting I have to get done at home, I write it out in very small steps, so that it feels lie I am accomplishing alot when I cross stuff off the list. Also, that way I don't give up (before startig it) thinking I won't be able to do it well enough. For example, clean the refrigerator, becomes: wipe outside of fridge; throw out old food from fridge; wipe top of fridge; wipe inside of door; wipe top shelf;wipe bottom drawer; wipe middle shelf. I still feel the need to be perfect, but this way I am able to get some stuff done.



Everyday is a winding road...
