Is there a name for this?

how about "retirement"?

 

I'm the same, I don't know what you call it, glutten for punishment, tight, or broke. I never could see giving good money for a project that needed to be completely gone through anyway. I get the ones nobody wants on the cheap and set on it till I round up the parts. Nobody can say I ruined a good car anyway. I picked this one up in '89 for $ 450 vs a few at the time that were rough for $ 3500.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is an anxiety disorder characterized by intrusive thoughts that produce uneasiness, apprehension, fear, or worry; by repetitive behaviors aimed at reducing the associated anxiety; or by a combination of such obsessions and compulsions. Symptoms of the disorder include excessive washing or cleaning; repeated checking; extreme hoarding; preoccupation with sexual, violent or religious thoughts; relationship-related obsessions; aversion to particular numbers; and nervous rituals, such as opening and closing a door a certain number of times before entering or leaving a room. These symptoms can be alienating and time-consuming, and often cause severe emotional and financial distress. The acts of those who have OCD may appear paranoid and potentially psychotic. However, OCD sufferers generally recognize their obsessions and compulsions as irrational, and may become further distressed by this realization.
Obsessive&#8211;compulsive disorder affects children and adolescents, as well as adults. Roughly one third to one half of adults with OCD report a childhood onset of the disorder, suggesting the continuum of anxiety disorders across the life span.<SUP id=cite_ref-1 class=reference jQuery18305662213563123335="36">[1]</SUP>
