Compulsion: It is a term used in psychoanalysis that defines a seemingly healthy subject who presents an addictive or obsessive behavior, irresistible before a certain subjugating situation.

Certain people with hobbies or hobbies of various kinds, or those attracted by collecting, may be affected by the compulsion to acquire too much a certain piece of collection or several pieces within the same kind of hobbies. As an example: In people who assemble models, it is common for them to be affected at some point by the compulsion to obsessively store hundreds of boxes of armables beyond their ability to execute them.

One such situation in which compulsion might be implicit is if someone is in need or rescuing, since although they could be "forced" to be rescued, it can be assumed that they would want to be rescued anyway.
