I mean, not be be an enabler or anything, but I'm pretty sure that if the acquisition and retention of STUFF is not becoming an encumbrance to your life, then it's not hoarding per se. Doesn't mean it can't be a problem, though. Excessive spending, excessive shopping, and excessive obsessing over potential acquisitions can all be unhealthy behaviors in their own right.

You're in a good position because the things you're acquiring don't take up physical space, and are likely not all that expensive individually (therefore giving you more leeway before you reach a point where your acquisition behaviors become financially problematic). However, it sounds like the compulsive drive to acquire more that you're experiencing is making you feel agitated and unhappy, more than soothed and satisfied. It's good that you're aware of that. Maybe the next step is to decide whether it's enough of a problem for you that you genuinely want to do something about it. Or is it one of those behaviors that's maybe not ideal, but fuck it, whatever; you need the dopamine, it's not doing any real damage, and you've got other shit to worry about.
