Do you think about your obsession all the time? Want it? Long for it? Suffer if you don't have it? Loose sleep over it? Can't go without thinking about it for a week, day, hour? I would have an easier time describing obsession if I knew what
"it" was.

A good rule of thumb is, if you hide it from your friends and families, or they noticed and told you so and you deny it.
Everybody has something he/she is concerned about, passionate about, or deeply care about. It's hard to tell just where the line is, and therefore, know when you crossed it. Whatever "it" may be.

i think it sneaks up and catches us unaware. i think then if you question whether you have crossed the line then you haven't not yet touched the line. not that often does one who has crossed the line even question their own obsessing.
