obsession

[GuiltyPleasure]

I obsess about spiders - they fascinate me.

what about if you are fortuitous enough that obsession takes you down the logical path?

I refer to my original comment that obsession is never good despite how it may workout.

Obsession is a mental disease.

Well except my obsession with you.

everything fun is a mental illness.
nobody does sanity these days.

Fun for the nutty one. For the partner, not so much.

I do, in fact I'm obsessed about being sane.

they're both nutty.
one is just less in denial.

escapism

I used to practice violin obsessively, because of the sheer pleasure and perhaps the escape. But once I put it down for the day that was it - the activity didn't enter my thoughts in a troubling way and it didn't infringe on my ability to enjoy or focus on other things.

I have trouble defining obsession as something that enriches one's life - I think it's the opposite. More of an avoidance thing in my experience, favouring one type of pain/anxiety over another more self-aware type.

I will have you.

I will have you.
