I broke up with my boyfriend because he was a compulsive hoarder, 4 years later he’s a successful author and guest on Joe Rogan. What the hell is wrong with society?

So I once dated a guy for 3 years who was a compulsive hoarder. It was bad. I had to leave him because I couldn’t cope. I was young and it was hard to deal with. We lived in a 2 bedroom apartment and only the kitchen counter and one half of the bed was clear. It was so hard to function. <br><br>I still befriended him after we parted ways, but we’ve slowly lost contact in the past 4 years and I haven’t been in contact with him in almost 2 years. Until he posted about his new book. I was shook lmao. I read the whole book and it was really good. I looked up further and he had a JOE ROGAN PODCAST episode lmao what the hell. I don’t think he ever got therapy though. It just seems he grew out of it. <br><br>So my question is, what the hell is society doing that people can go from hoarder to successful author? What are we doing wrong that instead of taking care of the mentally ill we let them write books instead and invite them on popular podcasts?
