+1 here also

I voted that I'm one big disorder myself, but I have READ (razor equipment
acquisition disorder). That basically encompasses everything to do
with straight razor shaving.

I certainly have SSAD, or SHAVING STUFF disorder. Doesn't matter, hones, strops, soaps/creams, and of course the main stay, razors.
However, lack'a moola, has caused my clicking finger to tighten up. I currently have a Silverwing and a Robert Williams to pay for down the road. so..................

I have several ADs.
RAD,
SBAD
SSAD
SMAD (shaving Mirror AD)
GAAD (Guitar accessory AD)
ARAAD (Amateur Radio Accessory AD)
LLAD (lava Lamp AD)

It used to make me MAD when I HAD ASAD, but now I just think it's RAD.

Definitely MAD, but on the bright side, I've been selling a lot of them lately so I guess it balances out.

I have multiple disorders. I have numerous razors, strops, brushes, hones, and soaps and creams.

See soap, buy soap
See hone, buy hone
See strop, buy strop
See cream, buy cream
See razor, buy razor

I'm beginning to worry that I've succumbed to some new Commie plot involving yet un-named pathogens slipped into the water supply, or, or... I've been mesmerized into some weird compulsive behavior by my monitor's cathogen ray tube. I wonder if the neighborhood clinic has any remedy or treatment for Cathogen Ray Syndromes S, H, S, C, R, and X (there's gotta be something out there I haven't bought yet)

But, how will you know the perfect razor until you've acquired it? You MUST purchase one razor after another no matter the time or cost or competing bidders on ebay until you finally acquire the quintessential blade and then realize it's really your honing technique and so begin purchasing hones. After purchasing multiple hones you'll realize you've neglected the soaps and so begin purchasing all manner of delightfully frothy, scented concoctions until you suddenly realize that the aftershave is every bit as important as the shave itself..........
