Looking for like-minded people.
I’m curious as to know who among you share the same problem of Perfectionism with me.

Maybe, we can help each other and support about information and sharing experiences.

For me it’s being a hell, indeed, it has been the reason why I tend to avoid doing lots of tasks, mainly, the ones that involve some kind of social interaction.

Yup been told this from a lot of mental health professionals. From constantly having to be on time to writing things out constantly to everything being perfect no mistakes. It's really hard living like this

Thank you, Laura. Now I feel better because I know other people are going through the same.

I feel like I've had this problem for a long time. Sometimes I feel like I am more strict to myself than others in authority have been - (bosses, coaches, my parents, maybe others). What's the most typical for me is not feeling satisfied if I were tested for something and I came out at around 95%. Good God!

Sorry I'm late to this. I feel like I have perfectionist tendencies and I have never seen a thread titled "perfectionism" until now. I felt a real twinge of it just now and I went to research to find if there's something about perfectionism.

You’re not gonna believe me but reading your posts about your home’s inspection, I thought that you were just like me in this sense. I saw traits of perfectionism.
