Thank you 🙏🏼 these are incredibly frustrating misconceptions. I wish people would stop using OCD in those ways. It feels very invalidating if I say I have OCD and someone’s response is that they do too and that they understand (as you describe in #2).

This may be a dumb question.. but I’m curious - I (redhead, F18 at the time) went under once for an endoscopy. Right as the anesthesia was pushed, it felt as though fire was rushing through my veins. I may or may not have cried audibly (probably just in my head lol). Is this normal? Could this be a side effect of being a redhead?
