Nah, that's the thing with mental disorders and other things: They're usually just an imbalance of otherwise normal behaviors/moods/etc. Most people should be able to relate to most mental disorders.

They just shouldn't do the, "lol I'm so OCD!" thing, because that trivializes how nasty the real disorders get. The people with the disorders don't just have flashes of silly desires or emotions (usually), but rather a literally debilitating to normal daily life disorder that no one would want to deal with.

"I have to sort my books!' she cried,

With self-indulgent glee;

With senseless, narcissistic pride:

'I'm just so OCD!'

'How random, guys!' I smiled and said,

Then left without a peep -

And washed my hands until they bled,

And cried myself to sleep."
