I get why Hankster sees it in terms of the deep work of therapy, but it does seem any different than any other dysfunction about ourselves or our lifestyles that we want and need to change.

I don't have this disorder, but I do know it's considered a disability in some states. I would imagine someone who has it would need a specialist the same way there are therapists who specialize in eating disorders, trauma, gender identity, etc. You can't just go to any old therapist and expect them to know how to treat it.
