Many more women than men have been diagnosed over the years with ‘personality disorders’.
These labels are much more personally damning than autism or ADHD - as they judge who you are, rather than explaining how you function.

And because of that key characteristic--acquiring things makes people who hoard feel good whilst people engaging in OCD behaviours feel horrible--#HoardingDisorder is no longer #classified as a type or manifestation(?) of #OCD in the DSM.
Hoarding Disorder is a separate, specific condition with specific #diagnostic #criteria in the more recent editon(s) of the #DSM.
