No need to apologize. I agree completely. Mental illness is a horrible thing to have; it shouldn't be trendy. I also think that it encourages misunderstandings about illnesses.

At my barista job, people use the term OCD to replace neurosis. It really annoys me. I have tendencies towards OCD. I convince myself that I have horrible diseases like HIV and have spent hundreds of dollars for tests that I didn't need to quell my debilitating anxiety. It's not funny or romantic.

Also, the romanticization of bi polar disorder drives me nuts. People see hypomania/mania as a creative or productive binge. I don't want my art and hard work to be attributed to nothing but my drive and personality, not a disorder that hurts me.
