[quote=Anonymous]Read The Gifts of imperfection by Brenee Brown. I think she has a ted talk too you could watch. Continue with therapy, and try a new therapist if necessary, perhaps one who does psychodynamic therapy to help you figure out the origins of your perfectionism. Be more open to meds. Also, you can become less focused on perfection without becoming a mom who gives lollipops or Tylenol pm. I’m a perfectionist, and our house is so immaculately clean I’ve learned to make it a little messier before guests come over so they don’t think I’m crazy. I cook organic meals, have never bought baby food, used cloth diapers, etc. But there’s a space between obsession and not caring. You need to find that space.[/quote]
