mister?: What are good jobs for sufferers of obsessive-compulsive disorder?
Jobs that can be beneficial for the coping and treatment of OCD? Jobs that dont cause the sufferer to feel so obsessed and compulsive about their job but still require a minimum BS or BA degree and are not dead end jobs?
I forgot to add stressful to the list, jobs that dont cause too much obsessions, compulsion and stress to occurr on a daily basis.
Jobs that also have coping mechanisms to the illness.

Librarian. My friend (I’ll call her Claire) has extreme OCD and she’s AMAZING at her job. You have to be very precise and organized to be a librarian, so people with OCD usually are best at it.
It’s also a calm environment because it’s very quiet and clean.
I’m not sure about coping mechanisms; I know Claire loves to read, so when she’s stressed out, she’ll just read, or watch a movie in the back room (that is, if there aren’t too many people in the library…which there usually aren’t). She’ll also just clean. She has a BS in Literature. If you’re somewhat of a bookworm, or have intellectual tendencies, you might find it really fun.
