When is something you do concidered a fettish?


Question:
I sometimes will spennd over 3 hours doing absolutly medioca things such as making sure all my music files are all correctly named even though it is freezing cold and way past midnight?

And is there any possability that this is related to my programming background where i have all my likes of code in a extremly neat order when the environment does not care about spacing?

Answers:
It doesn't sound so much like a Fetish as excessive neatness; my mother would love you!

You may want to check the reference below to OCD, if anything so you can stop worrying about it.

Also when you have finished your music files, I have music files, books and a whole lot more that could do with attention to detail and organising, so if you get bored.

It sounds more like an obsessive-compulsive disorder to me.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obsessive-compulsive_disorder
Fetishes typically refer to obsessions that are deemed "weird" or "odd" by society. To be obsessed with womens feet, or take pleasure from giving or receiving pain are two examples. The activities you refer to are more likely to be called "Anal Retentive" than a fetish. If it gets really severe, it may border on Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. But I wouldn't consider organization to be Obsessive Compulsive, unless you stayed up really late at night to accomplish the task, or it started affecting your personal life.
It might be to consider that it is related to your programming background but let me say that You are to organized skilled.and this we do not call fetish cause a fetish is related with sexual arrousement and get a kick out of some extreme diverentiation of subjects/items/body etc..

so dearest You have some kind of organising urge/pressure disorder nothing else more or less.and if it disturbs you..go and seek some help it will relax you due a period of time!

coralia aka Smilie Girly
fetish - c : an object or bodily part whose real or fantasied presence is psychologically necessary for sexual gratification and that is an object of fixation to the extent that it may interfere with complete sexual expression

I don't think organizing your music files really fits the definition of fetish unless there is something you aren't telling us. It sounds more like an obsessive compulsive disorder.
The diagnosis of Fetish implies substitution of another body part for the sex organs normally used. It is largely a matter of degree and history of abnormal activities associated with it.
