I don't feel proud of my code if it works but I do feel terrible about it if it doesn't work perfectly. As soon as I realize that there is any problem in any of my projects, I need to drop everything and fix it immediately or else I can't sleep or think about anything else.

I guess not being able to carry on with my life if I know that my code has the slightest issue means that I assume it is perfect and therefore I'm idolizing it.



Sounds like a perfect case of perfectionism.
