That doesn't really help with the social side of describing it though.
So many people insist that it doesn't count unless you're completely or meaningfully incapacitated. But that's stupid place to put the bar.
For more mild and gray-area cases, it's really more akin to personality and it should be about understanding the particular combination of traits or symptoms of an individual. I wouldn't be officially diagnosed with OCD, or depression, or BPD, or maybe even ADD, but I can relate to all of those on some level and I feel like learning about them helps me understand myself better (with a grain of salt just like any health thing). It doesn't make me go around telling people I'm disabled and how they need to accommodate or support me, that's just narcissism.
If you mean "Autism", that might be true. But I don't think "Asperger's" meant that. So we might have taken a step backwards there.
There are many conditions that a key point of diagnosis is impact to your life, and that's a conversation to have with the practitioner doing the diagnosis. It's a starting point not a bar, unfortunately nuance gets lost a lot once it's talked about in the social sphere/used as common parlance.
