Is there any information about his mental condition? I don't mean that negatively, but was there an addictive nature in any family member? Was there a possible obsessive/compulsive disorder? Was there a need to 'make something' to counter the destruction that he'd witnessed in the war?

Or was he just trying to avoid real life? Why do we post here, as been said, as don't we have better (and more productive/beneficial) things to be doing?
