BleatingZombie@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoI’m completely out of the loop as to how they’re referred, so I’m just taking a guess at why the meme calls them mental illnesses:
I think it’s likely because they’re things that require diagnosis and can require treatment

As a dude with OCD, yep it’s a mental illness by classification. It’s something that impedes and impacts the way people function and live their day to day lives along with social difficulties due to those things.
Disorder would be a lateral word to illness, and over-explaining doesn’t categorize it but rather deliberates the meaning.
Just doesn’t sound nice to folks. Until you figure out how to manage it, it’s seen as a disease as it can be debilitating. However, lots of folks can go fine most of their life with the disorders, since it isn’t an illness unless it impacts your life.
