Oh no, a sickness? Do we HAVE to get treatment? It won't go away without treatment I hope. Yes, it could be so much worst. Drugs (already acknowledged) high heels (at my age this is an addiction I needed to get over per Doctor's over), jewelry (so much more expensive but easier to hide the problem from others) and then there are pets (which can get to be so much work and everybody knows when you have 50 cats and/or dogs).
Feel any better? I know several people with this issue and not a one of them is worrying about getting help getting over it.

I can not put the word need in any sentence followed by the words fabric, thread, batting, sewing supplies or sewing machines. If I didn't love all things stitch related, I would not be a member of this board. We might as well admit it. All of this stuff is probably more than just a hobby with us. It is what gives our life that spark and enjoyment. For me it has always been my sanity saver and a wonderful way to calm down, breathe and relax and in our busy lives, we all need that. I don't feel guilty about my "stitching stuff" or feel that I have to explain it to anyone. Quilters already understand and others just don't get it anyway. It doesn't damage my health or harm anyone else so I think it's all ok. It's part of who I am and what I do. The bonus in all of this is that I make some really nice things which make great gifts to share with others!
