I hate it when people say “[person] is ADHD”. A person is not a disease. If someone has cancer, do you say “my aunt is cancer”? Weird and insulting.
"I'm so OCD". You ARE obsessive compulsive disorder?
Yeah, you don't say "I am diabetes/cancer/leprosy".
I’ve personally only seen that used by dumbasses who just liked to keep their stuff organized and who had no idea what a devastating condition real OCD can be.
