Obsessive Passion
Obsessive passion refers to an intense and uncontrollable desire for an activity or goal, often leading to a preoccupation that can interfere with other aspects of life. This type of passion is characterized by a strong emotional attachment, where individuals may prioritize their obsession over relationships, health, or personal well-being.
Unlike harmonious passion, which promotes balance and fulfillment, obsessive passion can result in stress and anxiety. Individuals may feel compelled to engage in their passion, often experiencing negative consequences when they are unable to do so. This can lead to a cycle of dependency on the activity for self-worth and identity.
