Chemosensory Disorders and Nutrition

The more severe the patients’ subjective perception of olfactory problems, the more likely they were to have a DSMIII-R Axis II diagnosis of obsessive-compulsive personality disorder based on their MCMI-II test (p<0.018). This association may not be surprising since it is in the nature of patients with this disorder to amplify somatic complaints. Fliess’ model of the phallic nose adds credence to the theory of a primary psychiatric disorder (Freud 1886); the displacement of attention from the genitals to the nose allows the “safe” manifestation of the sexual.
Co-occurring Personality and Substance Use Disorders
Published in Tricia L. Chandler, Fredrick Dombrowski, Tara G. Matthews, Co-occurring Mental Illness and Substance Use Disorders, 2022
Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder is classified in the DSM-5 (APA, 2013) as code 301.4. Those living with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCDPD) have rigid expectations of cleanliness, order, and control (APA, 2013). The rigid expectations cause the individual to struggle with flexibility in layouts of home and other personal spaces. Making adjustments to schedules, moving objects, or making quick responses to unexpected stressors are hard for those living with OCDPD (Gurok et al., 2019). As the need for control is paramount, those living with OCDPD experience interpersonal difficulties with friendships and with vocational interactions, causing interpersonal friction. Due to such concerns, those living with ODCPD may choose to isolate from others, making treatment for substance use and OCDPD difficult for those living with this illness (Atroszko et al., 2020).

Different personality characteristics are associated with AN and BN. As discussed previously, anorexics are typically perfectionists, exercising high levels of self-control and harm avoidance, and hold themselves to idealistic standards (Kaye, 2008). Consequently, they tend to be very self-critical. They are paradoxically obsessed with food and eating rituals, yet steadfast in their restraint from eating in their pursuit of weight loss. Many have symptoms of obsessive-compulsive personality disorder. Because they tend to isolate themselves so that they can pursue their eating and exercise rituals without receiving negative attention, they can exhibit symptoms of avoidant personality disorder (Diaz-Marsá, Luis & Sáiz, 2000).

Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD) is one of the most prevalent personality disorders in the general population (Ansell et al., 2010) and it has been included in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) since its first edition (APA, 1952). It is also part of the Section III "Alternative DSM-5 model for personality disorders" (AMPD) (APA, 2013). In the AMPD, Criterion A refers to deficits in self-functioning and interpersonal relatedness whereas Criterion B has been operationalized by the 25 dimensional lower-order traits of the Personality Inventory for DSM-5 (PID-5) (Krueger et al., 2012). For OCPD, Criterion B is met when an individual displays clinically elevated levels in PID-5 rigid perfectionism and in two or more of the traits of perseveration, intimacy avoidance, and restricted affectivity. The latter two PID-5 traits were introduced in the final DSM-5 model although they were not part of the compulsivity domain of the initial six-domain DSM-5 trait model (Crego et al., 2016; Krueger et al., 2012).

Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD) is characterised by concern with orderliness, perfectionism, excessive attention to details, mental and interpersonal control and a need for control over one's environment at the expense of flexibility, openness to experience and efficiency (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). OCPD represents one of the commonest personality disorders but it has been the subject of comparatively little research, its nosological relationship with other disorders that involve obsessive–compulsive behaviour remains unclear and no strongly evidence-based treatments exist (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). Epidemiological estimates vary widely and a prevalence ranging from 2.1% to 8.7% of the population has been cited (APA, 2013; Grant et al., 2004; Zimmerman, Rothschild, & Chelminski, 2005). In clinical psychiatry samples, the prevalence of OCPD is reported to increase to around 25% (Ansell et al., 2010; Albert et al., 2004; Pena-Garijo, Villamon, de Alba, & Ruiperez, 2013), and in obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) services, to over 30% (e.g., Bejerot, Ekselius, & Knorring, 1998; Diaferia et al., 1997; Garyfallos et al., 2010; Starcevic et al., 2013).

Obsessive compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) is a common personality disorder (7.8%; Grant, Mooney, & Kushner, 2012), with a complex aetiology and considerable psychosocial impairment (Diedrich & Volderholzer, 2015). However, understanding of the OCPD construct has been hindered by multiple revisions to core features and ongoing debate regarding the categorical versus dimensional conceptualisations of personality disorders (Rojas & Widiger, 2017; Zachar & First, 2015). For example, it has been argued that heterogeneity and the retention of polythetic criteria such as miserliness and hoarding have perpetuated diagnostic ambiguity, resulting in OCPD being poorly measured and misdiagnosed (Reddy, Vijay, & Reddy, 2016; Watson, Ellickson-Larew, Stanton, & Levin-Aspenson, 2016).
