Is it possible that there’s a form of OCD that only kicks in when you’re supposed to be finishing something? For some reason, now that the movie is so close to being done, I have powerful urges to alphabetize my dvds, organize my hard drives, finish unfinished video games, vacuum… Is there a name for that? I mean besides just “procrastination.” I’m talking a serious physical manifestations of need to do these things!
If there’s no name for it… is there a support group?
The term Completion Anxiety just came to mind. Does that sound right? I have it too – but usually only on projects that no one else is depending on me to finish. I don’t know the cure, but I’m here for you if you need a stern pep talk.
Thanks man. I don’t think my anxiety is about completing it… it’s about being so close that I’m getting really buggy about everything. Suddenly, I want all my projects finished. So maybe… Ancillary Project Completion Tension Disorder?
