I get obsessive fixations over TV shows, certain songs, school subjects, and movies. Right now, it's a particular cartoon I watch a lot, but I found a forum on it, so my passion over it has been revived for some reason. I get what I call "excited panic attacks" over these perseverations- like, I'll get a panic attack thinking about them until I can watch the show/movie or listen to the song, and then I feel better. I have to give a speech today for one of my classes at 11 am, and this combined with my obsessions over my TV show make me sleep even less than I normally do- thus, why I'm up and going at four am...I honestly don't know if the above is my OCD or if it's mild Asperger's, a diagnosis my therapist and I are still grappling if I have in addition to the quite obvious and ever-present OCD...
