I periodically get fixated on one particular thing and I feel like I have to have it or have to learn everything about it **now**. My fixations usually end up in a purchase. For example, there was a time that I suddenly got into perfuming as a hobby. I bought all kinds of essential oils in pursuit of the "perfect" scent for me. My last fixations have been related to my hair. Recently, I was almost delusional that I secretly have curly hair (despite it being pin straight and cannot hold a curl). Currently I'm just sitting here facepalmed because I bought two silk shower caps and have all sorts of hair oil in my cart. I can't shake the fixations off, I constantly think of the thing I want, constantly wanting more information on it. Is this part of being bipolar? Is it related to hypomania?
