I started back to school last fall and I met Rachel. We had a few classes together and became friends. She does have this one little quirk, however. She says she's ocd about certain things, and it drives me NUTS Is that even possible? I didn't think so. It's insane. She's ocd about reading, about taking notes, about doing homework, about her job, about driving. BUT, she does not have OCD. I know people who have that disorder. She's not one of them. How can I make her realize that she doesn't have ocd and that she's doing people with the disorder a disservice by "trying to fit in" with them. I mentioned it to her once and she flew off the handle. She said it only "hit" her after she had children and that I could not possibly understand. Some people are just loony. Anyone who would use their "dis-ease" as an attention-getter is just plain wacko.
