Do you have a disorder that you hate thinking of as a "disorder?"?

I often hear people going on about how everyone has something, everything is a disorder, everything can be treated with a pill nowadays… etc etc.
Let’s forget all of that, for a moment.

What about you? Do you have a disorder, or something that might typically be categorized as a disorder, but you don’t think of it that way?

For example, I technically have a (diagnosed) sleep disorder. However, I don’t think of it as a disorder, and I prefer not to. I think of it as working very well for me… but society and I disagree.

Please refrain from projecting and pointing fingers at anyone and everyone else’s situation. I simply want to know if there is anything that you feel, personally, about yourself that would fit the description.
