Assuming the person actually has OCD, the best course of treatment usually involves counseling to help cope with said mental illness/disorder/whatever term you like. Meaning they should be actually diagnosed.
Also, you can easily mis-diagnose yourself or stereotype yourself as OCD if you haven't taken many classes and whatnot. Which is objectively more offensive than a word play, as self-diagnosing on OCD (particularly if its wrong) is often more based on either OCD stereotypes (not actual symptoms) or being edgy and different. The former perpetuates negative, untrue stereotypes about what OCD actually is, the latter reduces it to nothing more than a trend to be in.
