I am a perfectionist. They say that the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem. Unfortunately, many view this trait as a source of pride, not a serious affliction. For those who truly suffer from perfectionism, it can become an overwhelmingly unhealthy obsession.

Very interesting battle w/perfectionism, Rachell! I think when you can use another word for "cheat", you'll have gained even more ground. It's not cheating to use a slow cooker! Cheating is dishonest - or criminal. There is no positive connotation to cheating, so look for words that don't automatically punish you.
