OCD and Bipolar Disorder are 2 disorders that are commonly spoken about incorrectly in society. It is a big petpeeve of mine when someone passively says “oh I’m so OCD because I like my shirts folded a certain way” or “that girl is bipolar because she is mad one day and happy the next”. Have you heard people misrepresent these terms? There’s a difference in being picky vs having an OCD diagnosis. There’s a difference in being moody/dramatic and having a bipolar diagnosis. Please discuss the criteria for actually being diagnoses with these disorders and why people should not throw these terms around lightly.
