On the merits in isolation I think she’s correct that there are not serious extant studies backing up the posited conditions, but also she seems deeply pathological and we may not have a scientific category for what ails her (and many like her).

If I were to guess based on her public affect, she might be agoraphobic, but that’s between her and the mental health professionals I hope she is talking to.

Yeah “no diagnosis = its not real” isnt a great argument. The DSM is not the arbiter of truth.

No, it isn’t. But also we should be suspicious of the urge to invent mental illnesses to pathologize people that we find irritating or whatever (that’s how homosexuality got into earlier editions of the DSM).
