It's easy to become obsessed with your favorite band. It is not so easy, however, to acknowledge that obsession. So, I am here to help. Here are ten signs that you are officially obsessed.

1. You get defensive when someone is trash-talking them.

You can’t stand to see someone hating on your favorite band, but you sit there and watch it happen because you don’t want to seem crazy. Plus, they are the world's greatest band, so how could anyone hate on them?

2. You also get a little too defensive when someone says they’re a fan too.

You are their biggest fan and nobody can be a bigger fan than you; and if they think they are you immediately shut them down.

3. You get excited at the sudden mention of their name.

Whenever you hear their name you go absolutely mental.

4. When someone mentions their name all your friends look at you.

Whenever you’re with your friends and your favorite band's name gets mentioned, everyone turns to look at you.

5. You own every piece of merch they have ever put out.

You have more of your favorite band's merch than you do regular clothes, and you are oddly okay with that.

6. You know all about their lives.

You know lots of random facts about them. For example, you might know who their girlfriend's dad's brother's cousin's boyfriend's sister is dating. You know it.

7. You keep up with all the drama that is going on in that fandom.

You know every single detail to every single story that is put out about them. You keep up with the drama like it is your school work.

8. You see them live every tour.

You are most likely the first in line and in the very front row.

9. You know every lyric to every song.

Any song they have ever released – you know the lyrics to it.

10. You get emotional whenever they do anything.

Everything they do just basically makes you want to cry.
