Any difference between “obsessed with” and “obsessed over”?

Is there any difference between “obsessed with” and “obsessed over”?

Yes (and the BBC have it wrong, in my opinion!)

I was obsessed with ... "Obsessed" is an adjective.
I obsessed over ... "Obsessed" is a verb.

PS In a post I wrote back in 2020, I said a bit more about obsession. If you're feeling strong, you may find this interesting.
