Therefore I must be a troll, I see. Thanks for pointing that out though, I hadn't quite absorbed the message after a couple of years.illiterate said:
Actually, you're thinking of dissociative identity disorder; the creation of one or more fantasy personalities which each in turn become the dominant personality occupying the affected person. Paranoid Schizophrenia involves the presence of other personalities within the afflicted's mind, similar to DID: the difference is that all of these personalities remain inside the person's mind. He speaks to them, they do not speak to other people; they only affect his actions from within. Hence, I would say that the Joker would be more D.I.D. than schizophrenic.scnj said:
Sorry about that. I know most people don't care, and that it's a common mistake, but I'm a little OCD. My mother works in behavioral psychology and it really bums me out that no one in the general public can ever really seem to tell the difference. It shows just how misinformed most people really are thanks to Hollywood.
This is something that gets publicity as you can see by the forum made by it and it helps raise awareness. I don't see why everyone is acting like this is stupidest thing ever. They could of just been watching star wars and one of them went "Oh shit i just noticed he has symptoms of abandonment!" They're trained to notice these things anyways...Baron Von Evil Satan said:
Just... why?
Oh goody another one. It's good to keep getting reminders from people who haven't been here as long as me, it really is.ThreeWords said:
I meant news by anyone's standards, not from The Escapist's fucking standards.
Assumption incorrect. I don't feel the need to post in every thread I visit and I'm not desperate to get it higher. Not saying he is, but I don't care that much about posting as much as possible. Besides, look at the post count all you want but I've been visiting this place pretty much daily for a year longer, so.Malyc said:
Why are you complaining then? If you admit that the Escapist's standards are different to 'real life', then surely what comes up on the Escapist as news will not be the same a 'real news'Vanguard_Ex said:
Also, try not to swear at random people. I almost thought you were trying to offend me
No no no, I meant news by anyone's standards. By that, I meant it encompasses The Escapist as well, rather than focusing solely on them.ThreeWords said:
And thanks for the life tip, I'm sure I'll put it to use.
HAHAHAHA oh man this is awesome
I did a project last year about Borderline Personality Disorder
compared to the other psychological diseases, this one was the most vague
my group and I looked at each other after reading the description and one of them was like "this just sounds like an excuse to be a jerk"
