Catch all

A disease with a diagnostic criteria so vast that it consumes and absorbs all the other diseases. Short for “catch all diagnosis.”

Person 1: “Idk man, I was just sitting in class then my heart started beating real fast and I fainted.”
Person 2: “did you see a doctor?”
Person 1: “yeah they said it’s anxiety and that fainting was recently added to the symptoms in the DSM.”
Person 2: “whatever anxiety is a catch all anyway.”
