Are you a perfectionist? Before I was "officially" diagnosed with IBS, all the doctors I saw thought that was what I had -- because I'm a perfectionist! They each asked me that question. I like things "just so" and I'm hardest on myself. If it's not perfect, then it's not right. If I'm not perfect, then I'm not right. (I've subsequently eased up a little, thankfully.)

Anybody else out there?
