Which is the bigger epidemic?

Self diagnosis of ADD or self diagnosis of OCD?

Both are awful. As a teacher I have only worked with a handful of kids who were truly ADHD. I'm talking their eyes couldn't stay focused or still without medication.

As someone who suffered under OCD as a kid, frick people who think wanting to keep a neat house are OCD.

Self diagnosis of heart attacks, death, and self defecation. The amount of people who say "I had a heart attack" or "I died" is only rivaled by those who say something "scared the shite out of me."

Marc Summers, the host of the sloppy, messy, insane kids game show "Double Dare" lives with very intense OCD. Watched him talk about it on TV and they followed him through his home and it is pristine. He measures the distances from the corners of his rugs to the walls and shite. Sounds miserable. But you know, annoying bitch behind me at the gas station has to turn off all the lights when she leaves or she freaks out, so you know.....OCD.

Which is the bigger epidemic?

#1 people worrying what other people say in a gas station line

#2 grown men complaining how other men dress (sport jerseys)

#3 self-righteous people who need to worry about their own life instead of coming to a message board and being triggered by the most mundane crap

how does this make you feel?

People put labels on things, and I think some do it to be kind of funny or even ironic.

ADD is not procrastination, but most people like to casually say they are being ADD when they can't get work done.

I guess a lot of people also say OCD for something that they are very particular about. However, I see that one thrown around less often.
