"Why is pathological neediness for social contact not the "disorder"?"
Don't you have a degree in anthropology? |

Is it this one or the Chris Psaros who claims to have transcended his childish desire for fame that is the inauthentic product of board momentum and too much caffeine? _________________ Last edited by God on Fri Apr 05, 33 4:00 am; edited 1 time in total |

I actually do have a rich, elaborate, and exclusively internal fantasy world.
I don't actually have any 'problem' establishing personal relationships, though. I just don't put the effort in, most of the time.
Anyway, it's hard to say because I have symptoms for basically all mental illnesses, and a huge number of physical illnesses as well. _________________ @}-,-'- *~*~* Member of the FTU Elegant Tea Party Society *~*~* -'-,-{@ |

Schizoid personality disorder and its various sub-types are a serious deal, and while a 'mere' personality DO schizoid typal personality disorder is the most serious of the personality disorders and it can become a smoking fucking gun quite literally if part of a perfect mental health storm. Schizos typal personality disorder with blunted affect and closeted obsessive narcissistic personality DO with rapid-cycling bi-polar 1 and tints of full-blown severe schizophrenia.
You're fucking retarded Chris, ALDP is right and you're so retardedly wrong it looks like you're trolling for Jason to strike you, or something. |

Oh he already did
Its virtually the only personality disorder which can and should be treated with dangerous drugs
I suffer from a God damned litany of various symptoms from at least one of every cluster, enough so I could probably be diagnosed with a granfaloon type, with about three lines worth of subtypes
You're a gay idiot Chris |

Here's a fucking idea you vitriolic petri dish of every known aspect of supercilious faggotry man has only discovered due to your continued existence, go get yourself wet, follow it up with an "episode of Cops Bomb", which consists of a six ounces of Everclear used to wash down a gelcap filled with 100mg of pure crystal Meth and 50mg of.2CE and.another 30mg of PCP and a few hits of some borderline 100% pure crack and then sitting in a room with flashing lights of various intensities and forms, along with loud tinny electronic-infused viciously designed "rave" music filled with loud whispers and suggestions that you rip off all your clothing break your face against the wall and maim yourself fatally because if you don't you'll be in this demonic hellpit forever, and you'll never escape who you are, and take the easy way out and cut off every of your extremeties and then eviscerates yourself.
Kinda what I've seen on the faces if some of these quirky ragamuffins with no REAL problem, and hey, you'd be dead and famous (in a short piece on a news station of the local stripe and a possible part of a Dateline piece until the producers deduced you were Just a Faggot), the fucking ZENITH of both worlds!
For humanity at least. Not sure how your DBZU and DONK BLOG fans would feel.
Fuck you. And theldorrin may "display" certain characteristics but something tells me he ISN'T what you thought HE IS and you're also the Arizona Cardinals of human beings. |

I really want to know what you think is so dangerously horribad about schizoid-ism.
Keep in mind I wasn't diagnosing anybody with anything, I just thought that the reading material there was rather INTERESTING.
I am fascinated by your reaction! |

Sorry Chris, I'm not in the mood to share
The massive quagmire of "eh,ADHD isn't real" "Schizoid? Sounds more like Had a Rough Time at the Party Scene! *high fives mustached blow up doll of tubby black man, which responds with the same startled looking gape over a bowl of molding nachos*! Am I right?"
Little quirks like untreated severe anxiety disorders and a crippling case of ADHD has ruined my fucking life. I've spoken with and listened to schizoids. Schizoids very rarely suffer from only s hizoid personality disorder, and schizoids without any other afflictions majorly clearly tearing them apart. Its fucking horrible and your flippant austerity towards mental illness in general honestly makes me wish I could rape you with a studded blunt object of some type and then set you on fire, not just downplaying a terrible personality dis order like you leave the toilet seat up and your Chevy is more important than your current man in your life.
And (I noticed you switched up your wording a bit via edit when I was typing this out) other stuff perhaps I need to get to bed |

If only I knew someone with severe mental illness, and it'd had an impact on my life in some way!
Maybe then I'd understand.
Anyway, how about we ease the tension here with a little rape humor. |

Re: Band of Gay Brothers |

Let me summarize how that article describes a person with schizoid "disorder": they are disinterested in social interaction, detached, dislike emotional intimacy, are very particular about keeping interaction on their own terms, and are forced to roll their eyes and engage in an elaborate game of "faking it" in order to appease the "ah brah, you need to get LAAAID!" sort.
There is, apparently, considerable question as to whether it should be pathologized at all.
Meanwhile you're talking about it as if it's the Mother Brain of psychofucked.
My point is, psychology seems to like to problematize certain mental and personality characteristics that are not only nonproblematic, but might even be an advantage to certain people (depending on what those people's goals are). A large proportion of everything that is awesome, throughout history, was brought into being by "crazies."
Psychology is very weird. It engages, for example, in a more or less wholesale pathologization of spirituality, or any self-diagnosed sense of differentness or superiority, as "delusion." (Which, of course, CAN be the case, depending, but isn't necessarily.) Non-normalcy can be harnessed, mastered, and wielded with great power.
When I am manic, for example, if I do something creative at the time, then, and only then, do I produce my absolute best shit. I am in no condition to actually evaluate it accurately while in that state, because whatever I do always appears to me as a shatteringly beautiful manifestation of godliness when I'm in the zone (no matter how shitty it actually is), but when I emerge and can start separating the wheat from the chaff, the wheat is genuinely pretty good! Much better than anything I'm capable of when non-manic. The abnormal state is a tool. It just has to be handled carefully and properly, which gets easier with time and experience.
Not all forms of psychological abnormality are equal, nor do they necessarily and inevitably result in the utter catastrophic destruction of a human. You seem to think that I'm saying that mental disorders aren't real, or don't cause problems! No. I'm just saying that it's more complicated than that. Obsessive-compulsiveness, for example, is not at all the same ball game as paranoid schizophrenia.
One guy hears voices and barricades the door to keep the FBI out; the other guy has a sparkling-clean house and gets his taxes done early. Yet they both have a "disorder." |

By the way, in this post:
http://www.ftusa.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=215269#215269
I am answering Seru's question, as me, not mocking you, or some such.
It seems like you may have misunderstood me, based on your "passive aggressive" comment, and your PM today, and the timestamp on your PM.
I wasn't talking to or about you at all! |

As pointed out, its very rare to be schizoid personality disorder afflicted only, and even then, the words on paper do not show how extremely negative they can impact your life. They don't really treat personality disorders with drugs, though pdocs seem fond of the treatment of borderline types with SSRI's. The schizoid realm is the one class that are treated with anti-psychotics, and those are the most drastic option to treat mental illness with.
I really only had time to quickly once-over the first part of your post, my.battery is too low on charge and I don't have a charger at the moment, so yeah, and I agree to an extent that for example, mania, may end up having relatively negligible negative impact on some while somebody else ends up maxing out their credit cards and goes on a two day jacked full of energy excursion into the world of insane decision making.
For either individual, however, it's going to come back and bite them in the ass, be it within a period of time about as long as it takes to write multiple bad checks or somewhere down the line far greater in length of time. Except for perhaps a unicorn, years and years of untreated bi-polar of any type will invariably bite you in the ass, and usually hard
I didn't know you were bi-polar. |
