The only genetic disorder I have (that I know of) is a bad case of restless leg syndrome... and that's not really all that rare at all.
This for starters!

OT:
I'm one of many people that 'suffer' in these warm summer periods where no rain fails at all.
Hay fever!! (or pollinosis depends on how you know it)

Yes it bothers me endlessly. It's ..eehm.. hayfever is spring, summer and parts of autumn, en then a cold in winter. So that leaves me a whole year without being able to breath through my nose.

Do you have a bad case? How does it effect you?
Nah, I can still walk. My pelvis is slightly turned out so my feet are somewhat pidgeoned and my ankles and calves are really weak. Basically I can walk for short distances but I tire easily.
Have you copped any sort of bullying because of it?
I fucking hated high school. Plus being a natural introvert didn't help. Yeah there were kids that were dicks about it and I was picked on because of that, but if it wasn't that they would've found something else.
Sorry about that man, I hadn't heard of the disorder before but thanks for the insight on what it is and how it affects people.

I don't really have any physical abnormalities. The closest things I could name would be my obsessive compulsive disorder and social anxiety disorder.
On the bright side though, I'm the perfect candidate for a butler of someone's summer home that they never visit.

Let's see... I have psoriasis, but some dermatologists disagree with the diagnosis, they think it's something else, so I have like 5 other options open how to call it... It's on my neck and goes all the way under my hair and it's a ***** to live with since it hurts, scratches like hell and sometimes bleeds. It's genetic, I have it since I was 10, (now 25), and I swore I'll never have kids. I am NOT passing these screwed genes to anyone. MINE!!!!

It's an auto-immune, and there is no cure for it. With that came oversensitivity to vitamin C, and other vitamins and acids, that sometimes makes my meals impossible.

I've got Pectus excavatum... Not really a big deal, and it's not a bad case, but I don't see it vary often so I guess my dented chest is at least a tiny bit rare. I see that most of the people here are pretty much just posting double-jointedness and mental disorders... Weird.

Oh, and dude, you sound like you're a vampire... I guess it must get on your nerves when other people complain about the sun.

I've got moderate obsessive-compulsive disorder. I'm not like Monk or anything, but I wash my hands constantly, am almost always symmetrical in my actions (for instance, if I touch one side a hallway, I have to touch the opposite side in the exact same way), and have to make sure I've been thorough. It takes me forever to lock up the house at night, and I always say to myself "Shut, lock, off" in while staring at my doors after making sure they are locked as a way to assure that to myself. You can imagine how long it takes me to play Mass Effect. I have so many chores to do on he Normandy before each mission it's un-fucking-believable. I also save my games wayyyyy too much.

THC sensitivity
!

This piqued my interest. How was it when you found out? Are you just sensitive or plain allergic? Does this mean that you can get high of really small amounts?

Porphyric Hemophilia, besides that I'm clean.
Oh god. I'll admit I was expecting this one to crop up at some point. I want to go play Morrowind now...

I already was that's why I felt the need to try and say it before anyone else did.

I had Persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy (PHHI) when I was young (1 year old)

I spent 7 months in hospital and then a further 8 years on medication =/ I was discharged from outpatients last year, at the age of 14.
Not quite sure if it's genetic though...
