I don't know... it's just a thought.

Of course I don't know what any of these obsession objects are you're talking about. But, without going into detail here on my end either, I'll just say I can relate to much of what you've written here. And I don't really have any answers either. It's something I've dealt with my entire life. I presume it has something to do with material that's stored in non-conscious areas of my brain somehow... or perhaps there's a genetic component. But saying that doesn't really help when it comes to trying to figure out what to do about it.

I suspect the biggest problem may simply be the nervousness & shame you're feeling. Perhaps if you could find a way to overcome that it would help. One small thing that has been helpful to me is just coming to learn there are many other people who share the same problems I've had. There were so many years when I presumed I must be the only person in the history of the world who had the "obsessions" I've had. Just coming to know I was far from alone has brought me at least a measure of comfort.

If it's not going to harm you or others, what's the harm? What your describing might be a mixture of fear or humility, tht's a common affair really.
Well I did go to look for the obsession object the other day and there was no nervousness. I didn't get one because they were too expensive, but I had no problems going into shops and looking. So that nervousness is gone now, or at least under control.

What's confusing me most is how the fetishes change so much. Instead of just having one (or more) start in my teens and then always having them. That seems to be how other people are. I suppose it doesn't really matter. Just wondering why I seem to be so different.
