[Serious] What mental condition has been parodied so hard that people forget it's a real disease?

Oddly enough, when my doctor went to prescribe something, it like.. snapped me out of it. It was like "OK, this has been ruining me long enough, time to roll around in the mud (mentally), and not care anymore." I'm sure certain aspects of my psyche hint at it at times, but I've completely abandoned it.

I'm sure it's not so easy for others, but for those who obsess over numbers, light switches, lining things up, etc., I just say to take that pig approach. Everyone with it is trying to be a clean pig in a dirty world. Go and roll around; the world isn't perfect/clean, and that level of perfection/evenness/"good" numbers will do and mean absolutely NOTHING.
