A phenomenological-existential analysis of a few examples of compulsive behaviors is undertaken, showing that these are reactions to, or compensations for, a depersonalization-like experiencing of one's activities (a lack of inner involvement with the things one is dealing with). Compulsions that pass in review are: sniffing at books or clothes, recapitalization of chats, confessing, checking. It is explained why these become ritualized.
A highly original, fascinating study, starting from a point of view completely overlooked by the present approach to obsessive-compulsive disorder.
