    I thought that meant compulsion to steal things? Collectomania maybe! :D

    ETA - Oh no, I've just looked up the definition and it's compulsion to hoard things, which may lead to stealing things of little significance such as pens and paperclips!! Oh my god it's me!!! :o

    ETATA - Eeek! Mascara is even cited in the Wikipedia entry!! :eek::eek:

    Kleptomania (also spelled cleptomania) (Greek: κλέπτειν, kleptein, "to steal", μανία, "mania") is the condition of not being able to resist the urge to collect or hoard things. People with this disorder are compelled to steal things, generally objects of little or no significant value, such as pens, paper clips, tape, traffic cones, signs, mascara, drugs and small toys. Some kleptomaniacs may not even be aware that they have committed the theft.
