In this chapter we will we examine how Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) or Obsessive-Compulsive Personality (OCPD) may interact with Hoarding Disorder. It has already been noted that prior to 2013 and the inclusion of a separate diagnosis of Hoarding Disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual Volume 5 (DSM5-TR) *1 was described and included under the new category of Obsessive-Compulsive and related disorders, people with Hoarding Disorder were included as either having OCD or OCPD. In reality, whereas Hoarding Disorder and symptoms of hoarding are common in both OCD and OCPD, not everyone who has Hoarding Disorder also has one of these conditions. On the other hand, hoarding symptoms may be present in both OCD and OCPD without displaying all of the characteristics of Hoarding Disorder. These distinctions can have an effect on what treatments may work for the individual.
