[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 195569, member: 805"] Kathie, I can't speak specifically to the link between obsessions and BiPolar (BP), but the anxiety part I can guess on. My difficult child has not been diagnosis with anxiety, but he has it big time. I believe that, for example, gearing up already for the Christmas list is a way of maintaing some sort of control. "If I know what I'm asking for I won't forget to ask for it" therefore creating less anxiety. It's kinda like perparing our anxious kids ahead of time for a situation that is our of the ordinary or a first-time experience. It lessens the anxiety because there is comfort for them in having a little bit of knowledge in a given situation. It helps them feel they have control. Just a guess.... Sharon [/QUOTE]
