Sosaria Turbocharged December 23, 2022 Share December 23, 2022 Nothing to be emotional about it. People need to accept it as part of our personality. It doesn't have to be labelled as a syndrome and catered for. This is just too "woke" IMHO I know someone who's very straightforward doesn't mince his words. But nice guy in his own way. You know if anything he doesn't like, or feels is wrong, he will say out straight. Might be classified autistic these days... But he went through life without such label and we all accepted him as he is! Psychology is a pseudo-science inventing all these disorders which are just normal variations in human personalities 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCD trait is even more common Most of us have a little bit of every trait (OCD, attention deficit, hyper activity, autism etc) Embrace our beautiful imperfections and flaws.
