So, this isn't really a medical condition per se, but rather a behavioural/psychological complaint that only appears to manifest in one particular ethnicity?

If you are asking whether it is "OK" to use a term based on ethnicity to describe the condition, I would say the answer is "no". Even if somewhat accurate, I do not see a point to using a term like "Jew Flu" or similar to describe it when there are better, more accurate scientific means to describe something.
