When I do my MSc in clinical psychology, I'll get to know many and more of these disorders.

I'll even theorize the Z0mbie disorder syndrome suffered by many Nigerians.

Of course, it must be a persistent behaviour observed in more than one context and by more than one person before it could be classified as a disorder.
A very educative topic that needs be paid serious attention. Some people dont know they have disorders and needs to seek professional help when symptoms persists.

If you come to the clinic and complain of being fulfilled in life and always happy, you definitely will get prescription against "overhappiness". Just like political correctness, medical diagnosis has gone overboard.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

People with OCD obsess over thoughts, urges, or images. The things they can’t let go of cause anxiety and their compulsions are an attempt to reduce this anxiety. Cleaning is one obsession most commonly known as simply organising things. People with OCD understand their obsessions don’t make sense but they feel they can’t control them.

They feel they can't control them? Feel? It wasn't supposed to to there in the first place.
When you have ocd you just have to do the action you are obsessed with, if not you start getting really anxious, your heart rate increases, ur breathing is no longer uniform e.t.c till you carry out d action

You should have included narcissistic personality disorder too. I am particular about this because I witness it on a daily.

Narcissistic personality disorder — one of several types of personality disorders — is a mental condition in which people have an inflated sense of their own importance, a deep need for excessive attention and admiration, troubled relationships, and a lack of empathy for others. But behind this mask of extreme confidence lies a fragile self-esteem that's vulnerable to the slightest criticism.

A narcissistic personality disorder causes problems in many areas of life, such as relationships, work, school or financial affairs. People with narcissistic personality disorder may be generally unhappy and disappointed when they're not given the special favors or admiration they believe they deserve. They may find their relationships unfulfilling, and others may not enjoy being around them.

Treatment for narcissistic personality disorder centers around talk therapy (psychotherapy).
Symptoms

Signs and symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder and the severity of symptoms vary. People with the disorder can:

Have an exaggerated sense of self-importance
Have a sense of entitlement and require constant, excessive admiration
Expect to be recognized as superior even without achievements that warrant it
Exaggerate achievements and talents
Be preoccupied with fantasies about success, power, brilliance, beauty or the perfect mate
Believe they are superior and can only associate with equally special people
Monopolize conversations and belittle or look down on people they perceive as inferior
Expect special favors and unquestioning compliance with their expectations
Take advantage of others to get what they want
Have an inability or unwillingness to recognize the needs and feelings of others
Be envious of others and believe others envy them
Behave in an arrogant or haughty manner, coming across as conceited, boastful and pretentious
Insist on having the best of everything — for instance, the best car or office

At the same time, people with narcissistic personality disorder have trouble handling anything they perceive as criticism, and they can:

Become impatient or angry when they don't receive special treatment
Have significant interpersonal problems and easily feel slighted
React with rage or contempt and try to belittle the other person to make themselves appear superior
Have difficulty regulating emotions and behavior
Experience major problems dealing with stress and adapting to change
Feel depressed and moody because they fall short of perfection
Have secret feelings of insecurity, shame, vulnerability and humiliation

I won't reply you with insults because i am different.

I would leave people to judge. You created 12 monikers today just for me.

You need this article badly.

I reported you simply because you boasted of raping the kids of your neighbours and getting away with it.

I hope you eventually get the psychiatric help you need badly

Let me give a good example.

Someone here boasted of raping kids and getting away with it on at least 10 out of his 50 monikers.

I felt it was disturbing and reported him to MODs. The Mods investigated and banned at least 7 of his monikers.

He subsequently created 13 monikers just for me today.

He abuses Buhari & tribes, i don't care, that's a personal opinion. But i cant just condone pedopihilia.


One of his many monikers include Isaabubakar. His mantras are "kiss the truth", "thunder fire buhari", "trash trash".
that one na person? He has names like "bloodykiller, bloodyassassin, buharimustdie, opiaoku, etc". He's not okay. Don't waste your time on him.
