Default Is this an Obsession, a Need, or something else?

Believe it or not, a scene from a Charlie Brown cartoon I watched this afternoon reminded me of the Discord rules in In Nomine: Linus had lent Charlie Brown his security blanket as a good-luck charm for a contest, but began feeling dizzy and faint after some time without it. The effects of losing the blanket were very physical, even making Linus too weak to attack Charlie Brown when he wanted it back. Now...if an In Nomine character had a similar object-dependent weakness, would that be a Need or an Obsession in terms of rule mechanics? Or would it be some other disadvantage/Discord that I've been overlooking?

Addiction? O:> (Seriously, I'd have to dig into the mechanics, and I'm a little too brain-dead at the instant to do so...)
