Oh shoot, not really. I wasn’t really thinking when using the term in the title and was so used to all the memey usage of it.

Cheers. I’m very much against the “memification” of psychological disorders. Another commonly “memed” one is OCD. If you look up what those actually are all about, you’ll see a major gap between the meme version and the real version.
Which is normally fine for most things, until someone says they have PTSD or OCD and the average person thinks “Oh lol it’s no big deal, I have that sometimes too!”
