I get obsessed with people very easily. AMA

r/

Since I was 10 years old, I started to notice that I became obsessed with people very easily. When I was 10 years old, I became obsessed with the actress Breanna Yde, after that I had about 5 more obsessions and the last one was the worst. I wanted to know what you think about this because I have never seen anyone like me.

    What do you think triggers these obsessions for you?

    I just wanted to say I have always been the same way. I found out late last year that I am autistic and that sometimes this behaviour can indicate autism as it is considered a special interest. I am a woman and ‘obsessions’ with celebrities are a way that women and girls display their special interests. However, this can apply to men too.

    Are you autistic or have you ever considered that you might be?

    Only celebrities or also people you know? What does the obsession look like?

    Do you think these obsessions are due to a combination of your OCD and Sonder?

    How do you manage/deal with these obsessions?

    It’s interesting, I’ve heard a few of my friends who have borderline personality disorder say the exact same thing!

    I believe that this is also a symptom of borderline personality disorder.

    What do you mean by obsessed? Like you see someone on the street and you get a crush on them? Because that’s pretty normal tbh, do you stalk them or do anything that may be considered illegal?
