Answer to Question 1

The anxiety disorder involves intrusive, obsessive thoughts. The personality disorder involves similar rigid and unadaptive behaviors, but the behaviors feel under control. People with the personality disorder do not show obsessional thinking that seems to force itself into consciousness, nor do they engage in the kinds of irrational rituals performed by people with obsessive-compulsive anxiety disorder.
