Hmm. I'm not sure I agree with that. A mental disorder is not a disorder unless it causes you obvious distress. It might only be obvious to the person suffering it, but not all people walk around with that kind of monkey on their backs. Believe me, it is not just a matter of who deals with it or hides it better. Some people have it and some people do not.
On a side note, being bummed out sometimes is not a disorder. Getting nervous at something every now and then is not anxiety. Liking an organized closet is not OCD. Remembering something negative and having a negative feeling is not PTSD.
