I hate when people treat OCD like it's some cute thing. "I have to put my makeup in this drawer cuz I'm so OCD hehe." "omg I'm so OCD if I don't sweep my floor."
OCD is crying and throwing up when you realize your towels have different stitching. OCD is throwing an entire silverware set away when one piece is missing. OCD is washing my hands 15 times because that last time I just didn't do it right. OCD is getting out of bed when you've already gotten comfortable because if I don't lock the door just right surely someone will break in my house and kill us all.
I struggle every single day. I wish people didn't play it off like it's so easy. If it were as simple and just cleaning my house, you have no idea how happy I would be.

I completely see where you are coming from. I feel like that when people say they are depressed cuz they didn't eat what they wanted. Like they overuse the word. They are real problems that people won't understand unless they have actually had depression or OCD

I understand also.. It is entirely over used. However I don't think everyone reacts the same.. Mine really causes strong anxiety but I don't get physical symptoms like puking.
