I'm so OCD (infosec.pub)

I'm very disappointed in poem_for_your_sprog for almost understanding this point, and then immediately making the same mistake she was calling out

'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.

While we're at it, "gaslighting" is an abusive manipulation tactic to make someone doubt their own mind. It doesn't just mean "lying".

It doesn't just mean lying

Yes it does and you're crazy for suggesting otherwise. /s

It's really exhausting. OCD, ADHD, NPD, BPD, Bipolar disorder, all these commonly armchair-diagnosed disorders have lost so much meaning due to inappropriate use. I was recently accused of gaslighting because I didn't recall what someone was criticizing me for, so I said as much and asked for examples. Big gaslighter here, everyone.
