What does “compulsion” or “compulsive” mean?
Compulsive means to do the behavior over and over again. I know people who find comfort, a good feeling, by straightening out pencils on a desk. That could become compulsive if that’s the only way you can bring about calm inside and good feelings. So behaviors are compulsive, and thoughts are obsessive.
