Birte...you are not alone. And you don't have to be on drugs to be shoe obsessive. I have been to some degree all my life, and the men in our lives all think it's just their wives etc that are shoe obsessed. I used to work for a company that sold closet organizer systems and I'd go to peoples homes and if the husband was there he'd always say "my wife has a thing for shoes"...and I'd have to tell him that on an average, most women had between 35 - 70 pairs of shoes. Men do not wear colored shoes, and do not need different heel heights etc. Then of course there are those special shoes that "go" with a certain outfit. I attribute my fixation with shoes to having to wear OXFORDS the first 12 years of my life! My choices were brown or black! I've been making up for it for the last 45 years. I leave them all over the house too which is inconsistant with how I do things otherwise. I'm generally pretty tidy.
