Its not really a fake word, but the term is stupid, but I don't like to hear people say "I have ____. Its self diagnosed".
WTF man? How can you say you have something them have no type of medical background and say "its self diagnosed"? Just say "I think I have _____".

People that use this word probably go through a “real-a-tor” to buy a home.
