Prognosis (Expectations)
The outlook for people with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder tends to be better than that of other personality disorders. The self-imposed rigidness and control of people with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder may prevent many of the complications -- such as drug abuse -- that are common to the other personality disorders.
However, the social isolation common with this illness may eventually lead to feelings of depression later in life.
