[b]Okay, no, stop[/b]. I'm sorry just... No. Enough with claiming all these mental disorders. [b]One[/b] of these would be enough to cripple you. I know this, personally. Gwazi knows this, personally. A few other people on this forum know this, personally. The vast majority of the time we don't mention it because it's not something that is comfortable to talk about, but since people seem to be believing you, I guess I have to deconstruct just how silly this claim is.

[b]#1:[/b] You cannot be diagnosed with multiple disorders under the same family, due to many disorders sharing many similar symptoms. (ex: You couldn't have "PTSD" with "hints of psychosis" or "sociopathy". You couldn't have Bipolar with Depression; depression is a symptom of bipolar. Same goes for mania to the previous example. ADHD's symptom of broken concentration easily fits [b]many[/b] disorders. It's one of the go-to disorders to start from before finding something more specific for that reason.)

[b]#2:[/b] Psychosis disables empathy and sympathy. It makes it hard to form a coherent line of dialogue. ADHD makes it nearly impossible to write large sums of text without being distracted and forgetting what you were doing. [b]All of these disorders would make you more impatient and more prone to violent or self-defensive outburst[/b].

[b]#3:[/b] I'm sorry I still can't get over the part where you apparently got PTSD by being repeatedly beaten in a hospital, and somehow, [i]nobody noticed[/i]... In a hospital. Look, some medical practitioners are dicks, sure, but the majority of people who go into the field do so with the intention to [b]save you[/b], and everyone like you. To even pretend that an entire hospital would stand by and let your ass be beaten savagely by security guards for no reason... No. Not acceptable. Not remotely. You need evidence for this kind of claim before anyone should remotely believe you.

[b]#4:[/b] It's fine to inquire about mental disorders in RP's, and even to be curious about them, to want to learn about them and try to understand their various symptoms and behavioral mannerisms... But there is no way you would be able to compose a coherent story like that with PTSD. Leave alone ADHD. C'mon man. You don't need to pretend all these disorders, you really don't. It just pisses off people like me and Gwazi, and causes others to look at people like me and Gwazi and go "HEY! YOU ONLY HAVE ONE DISORDER?! Psh! This Wayne guy has like, five disorders, and he's perfectly reasonable and sane! Why can't you be?!" See why lying about this is wrong?

[b]#5:[/b] To RP a disorder, Kestrel has it right. Nothing else needs to be said: Do your research, create facsimile, play. I don't mind if you RP someone with a disorder, just get it right. That's all I ask as someone who [i]actually[/i] has a disorder.

Alright. Hope that clarifies things for anyone who reads this topic, but just in case, one more time.

[b]You would not be a functional human being if you had a combination of any two of these disorders[/b]. You would be, at the very least, clinically incapable of taking care of yourself, and medication would be mandatory just for you to have a remotely coherent thought. Leave alone having twice that many in combination with each other.
