compulsion

[worder]

What do you call a compulsion for buying books? and for counting things? thanks.

Assuming these compulsions are pleasurable, they might be referred to as 'bibliophilia' and 'arithmophilia'. If not, then 'bibliophobia' and 'arithmophobia' perhaps.

[woofgang]

counting things can be a symptom of OCD obsessive compulsive disorder, but can also be a symptom of asperger's syndrome as well
