I think obsession and OCD are two different things. I know a guy who came to me with his problem of Obsession .. He is obsessed with a girl, he said he doesn't love her but he is obsessed .. He likes to talk to her, thinks about her all the time, can't ignore her, fulfill her needs, and even possessive about her .. He thinks that he doesn't love her because he loves someone else... He uses 'Undoing defense mechanism' which in Freud's theory, usually OCD people use it. He doesn't have such problem before, i mean no past obsessions of any object/ person .. Its been two years he met this girl ..
What do you think? Is it OCD or jst an obsession? If its an obsession, how to deal with it?
