I'm afraid that it's a life long disease, no cure. I was infected as a child, my loving Grandmother infected me without knowing it. Poor thing, she never knew that it would never go away, that urge to fondle...fabrics and threads. The need to have more and more materials. The desperate need for "just one more color". I blame my Grandma for all of that.
Hello, my name is xxxx and I freely admit to being a (sob) fabricahollic.
