Compulsive present unwrapper

[Andy63]

We have a friend who must unwrap any present that is in her care . She unwrapped and rewrappped all of her sons presents this xmas . She even unwrapped all of the secret santa presents at her work. She cannot bear the thought of not knowing what is in the wrapping . Is there a name for this condition or has anyone any amusing suggestions ?

[rosandjohn]

is it about the not knowing whats in the parcel or is it about the wrapping and unwrapping?

She's a Wrapscallion.

Hi
Maybe she is a (w)rapper, who is in (w)rhapsody with the presents.... (sorry, I know thats bad, but its not easy thinking with a new years day hangover....)

Happy New Year Everyone ;-)

Re Rosandjohn
Its about the not knowing what is within

Thanks for all other suggestions

Im not sure if there is a special name for it, but i would say it is a form of OCD- obsessive compulsive disorder.
She seems to be obsessing about knowing, and unable to prevent herself from doing so, hence it is a compulsion.

isn't she just a nosey cow?

[ummmm]

I'd say she's just bloody nosey.

There is a well known condition n the medical books, it's quite long word:

Hi Andy I work with people on the autistic spectrum (see the national autistic society website) and this kind of behaviour is very common. take a look and see what you think. cheers:-)
