Anxiety from obsessions?

Post Reply New Topic

i feel you so much. i actually get nervous whenever i really start to like something because i'm worried that it'll turn into an obsession. my obsessions usually end up being destructive and embarrassing for me in the end, and what makes it unbearable is that they usually last for 5-6 months, depending on how much i repress them. obsessions tend to be a very positive thing for most people, though, so i'm trying to convince myself it won't be so bad if a new one pops up. c:

Over the years, my foot fetish has caused me great anxiety. Only since marrying a very understanding and supportive woman, have I learned to cope with it - and accept it.

THIS.

I get incredibly anxious whenever I have assignments that cut into my special interests. I just have trouble with time management, I guess.
