Now it takes seven years to become a doctor here and almost longer to become a psychiatrist so stop thinking you are qualified because you are not. The only thing you can speak with authority about is your own condition as you experience it but nothing else. I am an expert on my own OCD but not on anyone elses since symptoms vary very significantly so you cannot extrapolate from the specific and apply it to the general

Pretending to be able to diagnose her, though, would be laughable if it weren't dangerous. It's like thinking you're qualified to work at an architecture firm because you played with Legos as a kid. "You don't think I'm qualified to design a building? What annoying, patronizing, condescending fluff!"

Not to detract from your point, but if you say "Legos" again, I might have to murder you in your sleep.
Thank you for your attention.
