Yes she does fantasize about basketball players, but this is pure news talk about basketball. She does become knowledgeable about it and I will sometimes ask her and have conversations about it. There are no other OCD symptoms. I agree with the teenager mentality but she will listen to the podcasts mostly when nobody is around and bothering her. She listens to it when there is silence and just her and her thoughts.
The podcasts have been around for a long time, several months. It used to be music though. The thing about the podcasts is that it went from 2 hours a day to now 5-7 hours. She does not listen to music as much while doing mundane things now podcasts. She used to listen to upbeat music doing laundry, lunches, cleaning etc. Now just podcasts.
I know the music was a distraction or way to deal with depression.
