waste creation disorder (WCD): a medically unrecognized disorder where a person purposefully and regularly produces more waste than needed. this can manifest in multiple ways including but not limited to:
throwing away objects that are barely worn
buying food near its expiration date for the sole purpose of throwing it out when it does expire
eating more food than needed to throw away its packaging
choosing to buy objects that have the most packaging
stealing things from people or stores to throw it away
this disorder may result in financial issues for the person affected, along with relationship issues for throwing away things when it isn’t necessary. this disorder may also cause aggression towards people who aren’t as wasteful as the affected, although this isn’t a requirement, and is instead a subtype known as WCDwA, or waste creation disorder with agression
