Yeah, exactly! I have a bit of trouble with that one too. I'm also trying to train myself out of words like "crazy," and looking for more precise terms (except when I'm talking about my own difficulties with my depression/anxiety cycle, which I am probably allowed to refer to as The Crazy when I'm experiencing it, because wow, I am not well when these things are weighing heaviliy).
There's a whole bucket of useful and precise language out there. I'm a writer. I should be all over that.
