'im sometimes socially awkward :P im such an aspie lol!'

They want all the woque points with none of the struggle, depression, anxiety and co-morbidities that come along with the disability. Kind of like the queer movement, come to think of it. Is that why they called it neuroqueer, because it's also a nebulous term?

"Sometimes I have difficulty paying attention. I'm SOOO ADD."

"I keep everything organized and can't stand a little clutter, I'm SOOO OCD."

It's mildy cringy among teenagers who do not understand that they are misusing the label. When people cling to those "this makes me special" labels into adulthood and proclaim themselves the sole entity capable of understanding which mental conditions describe them, including browbeating people who have been more or less objectively determined to have the condition as oppressive, it goes from cringy phase to narcissistic nightmare.

As someone with real OCD, can't agree more. Also depression. Of coruse mental health is not taken seriously, people use mental conditions as a joke all the time, then people with real diseases get criticized for being too weak charactered or getting called cowards when they kill themselves.

The people who casually use OCD as a synonym for 'liking things to be neat or ordered' really annoy me.

We don't (or shouldn't) do this with other diseases. We don't drop something and go 'whoops, there goes my Parkinsons!'
