N2  - An impressive case of a 48-year-old woman is reported who after parental divorce when she was two-year-old grew up under a wicked stepmother and developed various obsessive symptoms. In context with some personal disappointments the woman increasingly neglected her home which after eight years appeared like a refuse pit. Simultaneously she continued to groom herself, to dress perfectly and to perform well in her office. She finally committed a suicide attempt when undelayable installations forced her to admit artisans into her apartment. Our case is discussed regarding the double aspect of obsession as a protective function as well as an obstacle for the individual in coping with life.<p /> <p>Language: de</p>
