I've already pointed to the 'Beat the Blues' blog on the new Yahoo! Health Experts Blog a couple of times. He writes employing simple, clear descriptions and drawing equally clear distinctions.
Today he talks about Obsessions vs. Compulsions vs. Something You Just Like A Lot!
And I'm now calling myself a fan because of his opening paragraph on today's post:
"My family teases me, saying that I’m obsessed with the musicals of Stephen Sondheim. I confess I’m a little fanatical about them, maybe even “obsessed” as that word is used in its popular sense. But from a mental health viewpoint, an obsession is a problem, not something you enjoy a lot."
See everyone...my devotion to Sondheim is perfectly normal!
