Reclusiveness, or the desire to live apart from other people, is not a disorder, but it may be the symptom of a disorder. It depends on the reason for the reclusiveness. Some people just like living alone and are perfectly happy, well-adjusted individuals. Others, however, live alone out of fear of others and anxiety over social situations. In the latter, there is some sort of disorder that should be treated by a professional.
