Feeling Lost And Inactive

Is there anything abnormal about a person watching the same episode of a tv show, everyday or back-to-back? for example, they watch this particular episode and when it's over they watch it again OR they watch it once every day but there are lots of other shows, dvds, cable tv shows they could watch but they don't elect to. This person is almost 60 years old. I'm verrry concerned.

Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, either he likes that episode every much or he has become obsess with that episode. In that case, you should consult a psychiatrist for proper diagnosis and management. Sometime, people at old age become obsess with one thing, if this is the thing in his case, then he need psychiatrist help.

Thanks
