Oh I can relate. I go through those times of obsession myself and while difficult, it's important not to lose sight of your responsibilities. Do what you can, when you can and make time for dressing where you're able.

When I'm stuck in the fog obsessing with dressing, I tend to push the limits and add new things to the mix. After the obsessive period has passed, many of the new items added along the way become new requirements. For example, once I added a good, high quality wig to my collection, I all of the sudden 'need' to wear it to feel 'complete' when I get dolled up. I was fine dressing up without the wig for some time, and then with a crummy one (sometimes), but now I'm not fully dressed until 'The Good One' is on and looking neat. I guess in a way, those 'pink fog' visits are like girly growth spurts. The fog has a way of forcing us to push our limits, take some risks and reap the reward or consequences. My best advice is to try to learn from these episodes and to be open to new experiences always.
