Uhm how about Umaru from Himouto Umaru-chan.
If you don't know her, she is a high school student, and at the top of her class too. She excels at everything, from sports, to exams, to popularity.
But when she is at home, she turns into a lazy, bratty, kid that plays video games and eats junk food all day and tortures her brother

no mental disorder, her functioning isn't seriously compromised and she doesn't seem to feel very negatively about her condition, and her reaction isn't very consistent with a social anxiety disorder
they're just normal adolescents, hopefully anyone older than 19 would get as much
I've only seen a handful of scenes so I can't make a reliable diagnosis, but he just seemed like a cool and overall very well adjusted guy
no mental disorder, she's just very concerned with her public image, like most adolescents are
well if you say so, who am I to argue
narcissistic personality disorder, he feels above the rules, he surrounds himself with underlings to praise him, he puts himself in situations where he can show how cool he is...
his behavior isn't consistent with any mental disorder
one might say he has a bit of a maniac personality because he often acts rashly and puts himself at serious risk for questionable reasons, but that's just it
we're I to act unprofessional for a momwnt I would say he's just a colossal idiot
I'm not familiar enough with the other characters posted to even make scarcely reliable diagnoses

He has creepy small rat eyes. Seriously, i cannot unsee it anymore how small and creepy his fucking eyes are. Look at the fucking ratio of the white part of his eyes to the green/black part. In a normal human, that ratio is maybe 50%. Even in other anime characters, it is often close to 50% like or or

definitely no mental disorder, he's just not very interested in social interaction with his peers and a bit lazy, all very common things in adolescents
both her and Sora aren't portrayed very consistently - they look like they're severely affected by agoraphobia, or maybe possibly social anxiety disorder, before they get inside Tet's game world, but they show almost no sign of that afterwards, where they act all cool and cunning with random peasants, players and princesses alike
a mild social anxiety disorder, she doesn't seem to have much problems being around other people as long as she doesn't have to do anything they might "judge" her for, like speaking, but she seems to be getting over that as well, if only slightly
I'll say she's been affected by it at some point, but she doesn't satisfy the diagnostic criteria later on in the series
no mental disorder, she's just a chuuni dork
no mental disorder, he acted like a pretty well adjusted guy considering what's happened to him - a more fragile person would have had a breakdown, a dissociative personality disorder possibly

I'm not very familiar with BnHA, I'd say he too might have a bit of a maniac personality and be insecure at times, but given the world and environment he lives in I would say he surely doesn't have a mental disorder
that wasn't justified but it's not like it was uncalled for, they live in a world where people fight inside big robots, in a world like that I too wold react strongly if an alpha bitch treated me like that
but again, I' ve only watched a handful of scenes so I might be somewhat off
she was madly in love (as friends or more than that, doesn't matter) and acted selflessly in a way that was very consistent with her situation, she definitely has no mental disorder
I've only watched some scenes and read the synopsis, if I understood them correctly she's likely affected by speech sound disorder
he isn't extremely lazy in absolute terms
being like that would mean stuff like not going to the bathroom because getting up from the chair is too much of a pain
read the previous replies, I haven't even mentioned autism once

>t. psych student
Even if your entire field wasn't one complete mass of unscientific bullshit (and it is, and don't start talking about behaviorism because that isn't used to treat people), thinking you have any ability to diagnose anyone, even a 2d character, both as a student and without any direct interaction, is completely retarded. I'm sorry you're not smart enough to actually go study a real field. Maybe you should go kill yourself instead.

My good sir, please end the debate on what exactly is wrong with this woman.
Xavier Jones
I can see how one might consider adolescence as a mental disorder, but it's a normal phase everyone goes through
that everyone enters at least
antisocial personality disorder, he has no issues doing things that most people would consider "simply wrong", he's manipulative, and so on and so forth
now, this diagnosis technically needs another diagnosis of what basically is juvenile antisocial personality disorder, but I would imagine he wasn't a very good guy even before turning 16
>psychology is unscientific
that's partly true, psychology encompasses an number of fields, from psychotherapy which isn't a science, to social psychology which is a soft science (but sadly not very rigurous at all these days), to abnormal psychology/psychopathology which is a soft science just like medicine, to physiological psychology/neuropsychology which is a hard science
a number of these, including behaviorism, have been and are currently used to treat mental disorders in patients
>you can't diagnose anyone, especially without interaction
I agree, I surely can't be sure of a diagnosis without a hour-or-so long chat with a patient and one with their relatives, but I'm confident I can make a reliable, plausible diagnosis from watching how these characters behave (as in, another trained clinical psychologist would agree with me on the most likely diagnosis)
you just proved you know very little about psychology yourself, so I don't see what gives you the impression that this wouldn't be the case
>ur retard n psych isnt even reel
well if you say so it must be the case, after all you showed you're very knowledgeable already
I would argue he has no mental disorder, he's an alien who sees humans as inferior creatures that need to be sacrificed to keep the universe going and he's acting accordingly
that's akin to a situation where you'd have to lure out an ant per week and stomp on it to keep the earth rotating, I suppose you'd hardly have a doubt

she's a bit of a control freak, so to speak, but nothing about what she does would lead me to believe she's affected by a mental disorder
I haven't really read or watched this, but from what I gathered he was bored, got fit, and then got adjusted to his new situation quite well
he too doesn't seem to be affected by any mental disorder to me
no mental disorder for sure, she grew up in a very very veeery uncommon environment, she didn't learn most things kids commonly learn, like how to properly speak, how to behave, what emotions are..., then she got out of said environment and is having trouble adjusting
that's a exaggerated version of what you would, in another situation, call culture shock
the symptom she suffers from, and which brings people to say she's autistic, is called alexithymia, which is the severe to total inability to recognize one's own emotions, but it's due to her "upbringing" rather than a mental disorder
surely his doctor is trustworthy enough, I'll trust him and go with Asperger's
I'm sorry that seems the case
what assessment do you disagree with?
I'm doing all the characters I know and I don't know the one you posted, sorry
>He's a literal sociopath
leaving aside the fact that sociopath is a pop-sci term in 2019 and doesn't mean much clinically, it would be an error to judge an alien's morality by your own standards
do you feel very remorseful when you stomp on an ant or when you kill a fly?
that's just about what qb feels, he's sacrificing a handful of specimen of an inferior species for the greater good of the universe, why would he feel remorseful about that
as far as I remember her she could have been affected by acute stress disorder following her strongly negative experience with domestic violence (was that it?), and then she got better because of arararararagi and Hanekawa helping her out
regretfully I don't remember a whole lot of her though

No you got it totally wrong but it's fine if you haven't read it, he was bored with life since he was just an average guy unable to get a job, he then went through an insane work out routine that granted him godly physical powers and now he is bored of life since he cannot get satisfaction from anything, he cannot even make connections with people because he feels alienated
Gabriel Bennett
Luke Garcia
sociopathic?
Henry Gonzalez
damn I had forgotten this
that other user is right, she's affected by a mild attention deficit disorder
mild as in, she can still go to school and do most things, to a certain extent, but still shows most of the symptoms needed for a diagnosis
no mental disorders to speak of in that image, from what I remember almost all of their problems can be chalked up to supernatural entities and bad parenting
ah, I see
the most commonly used "limit" to distinguish between the presence and absence of a mental disorder are a serious impairment in one's functioning, such as being unable to keep a steady job or being unable to get out of bed in the morning without help, and a subjective distress, such as the recurring idea that the CIA is after you, or the obsession that a mistake you might or might have not made at work will result in thousands of people dying
one is usually enough to infer there probably is a mental disorder, and those are the criteria I've used in this thread, which have made something clear, like Bocchi's case, and something not really clear, like qb's case
I hope this clears things a bit
surely I don't know or remember enough about her to make a reliable diagnosis then, sorry
no mental disorder, he's just dense as a brick
no mental disorder, rather another adolescent concerned with her public image
I don't know her so I really can't
there's a number of other things that should be considered that I most certainly don't know about, so take this with a grain of salt
your description of his anhedonia makes a persistent depressive disorder the most likely option, but as I've written up here, it depends on how compromised and/or negatively affected he feels - he might just be a bit apathetic, waiting for the right person to speak to his heart or something milder like that

No specific character, but if you have seen it, what's your thoughts on Attack on Titan's portrayal of PTSD? I have to give credit to the mangaka, even though it annoys the audience, having characters cry/break down after killing a human for the first time seems more realistic to me.
Jonathan Kelly
How is the fact that he's incapable of feeling emotions not a mental illness from our perspective? His entire morality is sprouts from the fact that he can't feel anything, perhaps aside from an instinct to preserve himself or his species.
>why would he feel remorseful about that
QB is incapable of feeling remorse and he will always think he's in the right.
Isaiah Price
Not him, but
>it would be an error to judge an alien's morality by your own standards
That pretty much answers your questions.
Now, if you were to ask what seems to be his problem from our human perspective, I'm sure there's many wrongs that can be talked about.

Nathan Richardson
>how you come to your conclusion
I learned the diagnostic criteria for most of the disorders in the DSM-5, aka THE manual with the diagnostic criteria for mental disorders, used by health professionals all over the world
knowing those, and having an idea about the most probable disorders a character might have, I see what action/symptom/behavior/attitude fits the criteria for the probable disorders
no mental disorder, she's very driven and motivated by her love for her boss, basically every male japanese employer's dream, a cute girl who works very hard for you, adores you, and would die for you
haven't read it nor seen it, sorry
going with your example, having characters cry or break down after killing someone is hardly a symptom of mental disorder - quite the opposite, and PTSD is a disorder that might develop some time after a very stressful event (having to kill someone might be a precipitating factor indeed), but the symptoms take some time to show up, are lasting, and are things like having trouble sleeping because of nightmares, amnesia regarding some particulars about the stressful event(s), avoidance of situations that may remind the person of the stressful event(s)...
breaking down after having to kill someone on the other hand is a congruent emotional response, no more, no less
the criteria that I tick the most boxes for is alcohol use disorder, but I still don't tick enough to be formally diagnosed with it

He has a supernatural luck cycle where absurdly traumatic things happen to him followed by bouts of insane luck (like being kidnapped, but finding a winning lottery ticket in the trash bag he was kidnapped in, his plane being hijacked by a terrorist but a meteor hits it and he's the only survivor). He has a degenerative brain disease that his luck keeps in check. He tries to kill himself twice over the course in stupidly elaborate ways of the game to fulfill a "purpose". He puts himself down constantly, calling himself trash, but alternating with arrogance because he's the smartest person in his game. He also wore a collar for two years and called himself a Servant.

Noah Wilson
very interesting one, I thought about it in the past days
supposing that the strange stuff she saw was all allucinations I'd say she's affected by bipolar disorder I with schyzoid characteristics, she has highs and downs and the hallucinations most often come with those peaks
she may also have a disphoria that makes her see different versions of herself
supposing the wired was real and she became a god it was just bipolar disorder II, with no further specifier
narcissistic personality disorder and a bit of a maniac personality, but seeing how many maniac personalities there are it's probably a fighting-anime-guy thing that could be looked over
I wouldn't know, I picked the first relevant result from google images and I'm not familiar with her anime
having fantasies about everything going fine is one of the possible symptoms of PTSD though, but they're delusions rather than hallucinations
of course the anime might not be representing any disorder realistically
come on that's too much stuff to write at this hour, I'll do the most interesting ones - Asuka, Rei and Shinji
Asuka might have had some major depressive episodes during the show, or she may have had some bad reactions to current stressors due to PTSD caused by her mother killing herself and related issues, I'm confident it's either one of the two but I couldn't say which without more info
Rei is literally retarded for her age, but wanting to consider all the facts she's just a very young kid in an adolescent's body, so no mental disorder there
Shinji is most likely affected by avoidant personality disorder because of his father most of all
the others are p much alright
who, Shirou?
no mental disorder, just awkward as fuck because he's ugly and has no friends
the premise of that story is 100% unrealistic, kids don't hate other kids because they're "too perfect" in real life - quite the opposite

I have my bet on Yoshiko being an extremely theatrical and avoidant, yet intelligent person.
Almost all of the difficult situations she barges into are resolved through her antics, leading to better results.
She doesn't piss people off or accidentally hurt anyone.
She made her personality to fit everyone and hides in it.
Also, she has hulk strength.
Is very resilient to physical pain.
Has literally no fear of of taking risks.
She's extremely annoying to Akuru, almost on purpose.
Because she might want to hide herself from him most of all.
There's also her obsession with bananas that... no.
I'd just call her a former long-term torture victim.

wow I'm famous
I would if I had seen her show, sorry
narcissistic personality disorder would be a safe bet if he didn't p much get over it later on
I believe he has no mental disorder, rather he has a giant ego
I wouldn't presume to know why others signed up for the same degree I signed up for, but that seems an extreme generalization, it's not why I signed up, and I don't believe it's the reason why most of my colleagues signed up
mental disorders are (relatively) commonly found syndromes, aka specific sets of co-occuring symptoms, a handful of which are also related to specific changes in brain structures, a lot of those syndromes can be reliably treated with medications or other treatments, and naive, non expert patients can reliably report the same symptoms when they're affected by a certain disorder
it's tempting to believe that someone you dislike is just throwing excuses around to get more attention, but mental disorders are quite real, however disagreeable that may sound to you in particular
no mental disorder at all, why in the world would you think she's affected by one?
no mental disorder, she's just not very well adjusted to her environment
the first part isn't related to a mental disorder at all, and while the symptoms you described make major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder II the most likely candidates they may well be related to his brain disease (which is physical rather than mental), and I'd be unprofessional making a diagnosis without knowing if those are really the symptoms of a mental disorder
look some posts up
surely not, she just found herself in a most unrealistic situation and isn't dealing with it very well
no mental disorder, she lives in a very very hostile environment and reacts appropriately
I can only make a diagnosis if I know the character, but I haven't seen her show, sorry

no mental disorder, just a bit shy
no mental disorders there, just STEEL RESOLVE on the left
Ryuko though seems to have had a major depressive episode followed by a brief acute stress disorder after her discovery of being partly made of life fibers
but nasu can't write for shit, and he also can't read the diagnostic criteria for PTSD, so contrarily to his intention he's written a protagonist that's not affected by PTSD
look up
same as before, I wouldn't say she ticks enough boxes for any mental disorder, including avoidant personality disorder
they're also technically mental disorders rather than illnesses
>survivor's guilt
>hero complex
the former (together with the rest of Shirou's behavior) isn't enough to satisfy the diagnostic criteria for PTSD, and the latter is a popular term that doesn't mean anything formally clear (and is well explained by the last portion of MI first assessment about Shirou)
a bad case of not being very bright at all
he looks like a loser
I haven't seen more than a few scenes from here and there though, I don't know the character at all and I couldn't make a diagnosis, sorry
>savior complex
that's not a mental disorder, it's a vague non-technical term most commonly used to refer to delusions with grandeur content, which in turn are a symptom rather than a disorder

my bad, that was the first related pic I found on google images and it wasn't meant to represent my opinion on those characters, most of which I'm also not familiar with
Katja technically fits the bill for sexual sadism disorder, but I'd hardly call that a disorder seeing that nobody really got hurt or received unwanted and unwarranted sexual advances
Hana on the other hand would technically fit the bill if she was 16, which I really don't know - seeing that Katja's 11 Hana might well be 15
I believe I can confidently say that if Hana can't be diagnosed because she isn't 16 yet she'll still tick all the boxes and could be diagnosed as soon as she turns 16
8man doesn't satisfy criteria 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8 and 9 (DSM-5, page 663) for borderline personality disorder, why would you still say he's affected by it?
he doesn't satisfy the criteria for any mental disorder even
>mental disorder
>lists a number of possible symptoms together with a number of common personality traits
huh?
no mental disorder, just a baka
I can't for the life of me remember if he does, but even if he does that's a physical injury with a possible consequent physical illness
a mental disorder is a condition of unknown cause (causes may be very likely but never 100% sure) leading to abnormal functioning and/or comprosmission and/or self-reported distress where the brain is physically intact
the name has a history - it once (late '30s) was used to refer to a disorder that was more or less halfway between neurosis and psychosis, so the borderline was between those two
Blake Richardson

no mental disorder, she got very good at lying out of necessity but still functions normally

By alien standards Kyubey could be completely but to human standards he's completely racist to the point of sociopathy, just like the human invaders in James Cameron's Avatar.
You can't just compare a sentient being like a bug with a sapient being like a human. Unless Kyubey had a 500 IQ (which I seriously doubt) the only difference between he and us is that his civilization is more advanced.

A police officer would probably be his realistic career choice but he lives in a world where heroes exist and serve as special forces.

there exists a manual called DSM, published by the American Psychiatric Association, that contains the list of currently recognized mental disorders and the criteria that one has to satisfy (stuff like, "has acted on suicidal thoughts at least once in the last 6 months", "has had sensory allucinations in the same time period"...) to be formally diagnosed with each disorder
the DSM, currently at it's fifth major edition/revision, is by far the most common diagnostic tool for mental disorders all over the world
"sociopathy" is nowhere to be found on said manual, and while it's a common enough term it doesn't have a formal definition, and might be used to mean different things depending on who uses it, but you won't hear a professional using it during practice
the disorder that is closest to the common meaning of sociopathy is antisocial personality disorder
>can't compare sentient beings to sapient being
qb does, becaise he clearly believes humans are just about as ants are to us, and he implies that often while talking about the necessary sacrifices to keep the universe going and so on
his species is also of clearly superior intelligence as they're able to travel through space to meet other civilizations and watch them get fucked, so he might well have a 500 IQ
no mental disorder, but I too would like to go and directly ask him what the fuck is wrong with him
>all a psychologist does
not at all, but it's the biggest part of the diagnosis process
"psychologist" is a very broad term nowadays, as psychology encompasses a number of different fields that can be wildly different from one another (say, neuropsychology vs dynamic psychology), and the role I'm playing now is that of the clinical psychologist, which starts with diagnosing someone, proceeds to think about what treatment would be best in their situation, and then checks back with the patient every once in a while, sometimes administering the therapy himself

Chase Ramirez
>what happens if one doesn't fit the criteria for any dosorder
the most common reason why is that said person isn't affected by any mental disorder
now I imagine you meant, what if someone is clearly affected by one but there's no disorder that corresponds to those symptoms on the magic book
in that case two things may be the cause, the most common one being that the patient is lying without knowing what a certain disorder actually causes and they're getting stuff wrong (or the character is written unrealistically, look up for examples), and the other one being that the clinician isn't good at his job
the DSM contains a heap of different disorders, a handful of which are fairly aspecific and can be used to diagnose someone who clearly has a mental disorder (no physical damage, impairment in important areas of functioning, self-reported distress) but doesn't fit the bill for any other disorder
that's a very, very uncommon occurrence though, mind you
>what boxes could be ticked for her
this works more like, the clinician gets an idea of what the problem might be, makes a list of probable diagnoses, and checks the boxes for that (most commonly done when it's not possible to actually interview the patient and/or have them collaborate), and while I'm not very familiar with her at all, I wouldn't say she has a mental disorder from the few things I know
does she have any serious problems interacting with others at school (her friends included), speaking in class to maybe ask a question, stuff like that?
if so she may fit the bill for social anxiety disorder, but from my admittedly limited perspective I would be inclined to say she's just an adolescent with normal adolescent issues
>the human mind isn't that deep
huh
I already did that, check above
I already did that as well, no mental disorder
>mental disorder

the things you mentioned aren't mental disorders, rather fairly normal personality traits

Ryan Wilson
Again, your side has no proof that a soul doesn't exist. But, we are repeating ourselves..
Brody Gonzalez
indeed
already did it
interesting one, I'd say she developed a specific situational phobia in an unrealistic way seeing her panic attacks and avoidance and all, and she was already very (pardon me the old fashioned term) introverted from the start, which I can confidently chalk up to adolescence
that points to juvenile conduct disorder, or however it's called in English, but it's unlikely that one would develop it in a short time and go from x to the opposite of x
anime and manga often depict younger characters that behave 1.5 times their age, and that's probably a factor that makes a diagnosis like this near impossible
no mental disorder, just not a very bright girl
huh
nui seems to fit the bill for antisocial personality disorder, even though it doesn't seem to be that far off from the norm in that world so I'm on the fence
she's also shown some symptoms of bipolar disorder, but I would exclude it seeing the absence of self-arm (that's just a joke, it's not how a pro would exclude such that disorder)
same thing could be said for Ragyou
I haven't seen her anime, but from what I gathered she may well be affected by pedophilic disorder
fuck I should finish this, I've only watched a single episode, sorry
depends, one may be severely impaired in his normal functioning because of it, do very dangerous and stupid things, stuff like that
oh fuck
huh, I'm a bit out of my depth, that image might be affected by a dissociative disorder but I don't have a lot to work on
severe case of literally me
but really, she has no mental disorder, she's just scared by some ideas she has about love and interpersonal relationships, so we can label this one too under adolescence

What we currently have is our best system of explanation for the problems of the brain. If you can disprove any aspect of it or come up with a better system, bring it to relevant scientific authorities and you'll become one of the greatest minds of our generation. If you can't do that then all you've done is bring emotional, performative "I'm way smarter than THIS" bullshit to this thread. Up until this becomes a hard science, this system is currently the best at predicting and explaining the events that happen in our world. People have to use something to explain the world around us, we cannot wait until it is exactly perfect to engage with these problems

>autistic
*rigorous
some authors might well write realistic mental illnesses, it's not very difficult or time consuming to research the criteria and most common symptoms
some illnesses are also better represented in popular culture, so it's easier to write someone affected by, say, depression, than someone affected by bipolar disorder I with schyzoid characteristics, and as you can see from this thread some characters do satisfy the criteria for some disorders
I didn't even think about it, and hopefully the way I format my replies is enough to make it clear it's me, but you're right, I'll remember it in case I do something like this again
yeah, what I meant was that you don't start by ticking boxes, so to speak, unless you have the chance to interview the subject/patient, and since I don't know her very well at all I wouldn't know what disorder to start looking for
please refer to my previous messages where I outline how mental disorders are defined in clinical practice and how they're diagnosed
about half of the published social psych articles each year get falsified these days, but the trend is actually downwards since some years ago, while other areas of psychology don't suffer from this any more than other soft sciences like medicine
psychological theories also work well to explain a number of things humans do and think, a banal example you might be familiar with is the heuristics and biases program for which Daniel Kahneman (Amos Tversky should have too) won a nobel prize in 2002
the DSM simply works, read some review about its reliability if you have doubts
you're spouting much more inaccurate memes than the average social psych researcher does on a regular basis, read a book or something

The criteria for something to be considered scientific, is that it need to be explainable in mathematical terms(Feynman). I completely agree with you, that the concept of a soul can not be reduced to numbers(thankfully). However, just because it can't be explained in mathematical terms, that doesn't mean you can rule the existence of your soul out. Science has limits to where it can be applied. If you want proof you will have to look elsewhere. You can observe someone who claims to have a soul. Or in my belief you possess a soul, so you could even consider looking inside yourself. Good luck, user.

What we currently have is bits of neuropsychology and nothing else worthwhile. Both dsm and almost all psychological theories are oversimplified garbage that cause more damage by existing than any so called mental disorder ever could. Not to mention psychology as a whole is being used as a vehicle to push progressivism into every aspect of everyday life. Disprove any aspect of it? Transgenderism being struck from dsm even though the suicide rate in related cases far exceeds any expectations. Apa pushing for normalisation of the so called gender dysphoria and with the same hand attacking masculinity as something undesirable. Read their latest guidelines, it's all there. It's detestable and in my eyes, anyone that propagates this garbage is nothing more than a villain.

I might have misunderstood what you wrote there, but you rule the possibility, that a behavior can't be explained by the DSM, out? Or at the very least as a psychologist, you are supposed to rule it out?

she has some histrionic traits but it would be exaggerated to say she's affected by a personality disorder, she functions quite well with others, only she's a bit of a duck
that "we're" was the auto-correct actually, the rest is correct english
>his mental disorder is a wall of coldness and I'm positive it's caused by abuse
>she's shy so she has social anxiety disorder
>psychopath
"psychopathy" isn't a mental disorder, it's not a clearly defined term even
>she fits borderline or histrionic criteria
have a look at the damn borderline personality disorder criteria and tell me which ones she fits in, this is the second time, I understand wanting to join the fun but read a book before playing the clinical psychologist
Sora no Woto
>nothing else worthwhile
well if there was any doubt about the fact that you barely know anything serious about psychology this should clear things up
>cause damage by existing
I won't suppose you have a serious argument about this as it's not the first time you mention it and still can't argue about it, while there's heaps of research and clinical trials showing how mental disorders can be treated effectively and more or less reliably
>I have a negative attitude towards some groups that have a positive relationship with something, so that something must be baseless and ridiculous
gender dysphoria substituted gender identity disorder in the DSM-5, which in turn substituted transexualism in the DSM-IV, and "transgenderism" was never in the list of mental disorders
>the suicide rate in a group is significantly higher than in other groups, hence members of said group are affected by a mental disorder
being a white US citizen must be a mental disorder too, suicide incidence there is a lot higher than in other groups
>attacking masculinity
>read their latest guidelines
you mean the guidelines for psychological practice with transgender people?
nothing of the sort is written there

>anyone who promotes ideas I disagree with for the benefit of a group I'm not a member of, and for noone's disadvantage, is a villain and whatever they say is shit, they're just waiting for us to turn our backs and steal our precious bodily fluids and poison our waters with the gays
you're just prejudiced against LGBTQ+XYZwhatevers because it's hip to hate SJWs and whatnot, but you really have nothing to lose from them becoming more widely accepted
>but the number of sexes is the same as the number of genders
this is a speculation on my part, but if that's your (clearly uninformed) opinion then I'd say you too aren't affected by a mental disorder, rather, much like a number of the above characters you have a serious case of adolescence
I'm saying that it's astronomically unlikely that a set of symptoms (aka a syndrome) won't fit the DSM criteria for any disorder, as there's a handful of disorders such as "other unspecified [...] disorder", which has fairly generic criteria and should be used in case someone is clearly affected by a mental disorder (look up in this thread for the usual criteria used to say that someone is affected by one) but his symptoms don't fit the criteria for other, more specific disorders
judging from your calligraphy, the time of your message, and Jupiter's current position, I'll put myself out there and say you might be homosexual
just a wild guess though
no mental disorder, she's just not smart and doesn't think things through
same as before, this image was the first related one I found on google images and it doesn't represent my view, I'm not even familiar with most of those characters
"transgenderism" has never been in the DSM

Jackson Parker
>that wasn't justified but it's not like it was uncalled for, they live in a world where people fight inside big robots, in a world like that I too wold react strongly if an alpha bitch treated me like that
but again, I' ve only watched a handful of scenes so I might be somewhat off
I'm curious what scenes you watched to make you think that, but if you watch the whole thing you'll see that Ange is best girl, and that Embryo is a delusional narcissistic god-complex netori-loving rapist control-freak sociopath who deserved to be treated even worse by her. Also it's entirely his fault that the world is like that. He's basically a 100x more crazy and delusional version of Dio.
Aiden Jackson
This was a pretty fun thread. Thanks OP
Matthew Robinson
>qb does, becaise he clearly believes humans are just about as ants are to us, and he implies that often while talking about the necessary sacrifices to keep the universe going and so on
Yeah, just because he said it doesn't meant he's right. Kyubey is a sapient being just like us.
>his species is also of clearly superior intelligence as they're able to travel through space to meet other civilizations and watch them get fucked, so he might well have a 500 IQ
With enough time we might be able to do the same thing. Electricity was discover 250 years ago and we know that humans weren't stupid 250 years ago or 2000 years ago.
Civilizations aren't built in 1 generation. We use the discoveries of the people of the past.

>Transgenderism being struck from dsm
I'm going to stop you right there. First of all "transgenderism" wasn't a term they ever used.
Second of the concept of it is still in the DSM, but they just call it "Gender dysphoria."
His point was that they never used the term "transgenderism" so you're basically saying that he's right.
William Evans
I'm ignoring the ones I don't know, sorry
Okabe is definitely not affected by a mental disorder, he's just a chuuni
write that nothing fits exactly, and decide on a treatment based on the most severe symptoms
for example, if after double checking I found someone who had depressive and maniac symptoms, was severely impaired in his functioning and yet didn't fit the criteria for any disorder I may suggest a mood stabilizers prescription and keep the patient under observation to see if his symptoms change enough to fit the criteria for a disorder, which would make it easier and safer to treat him
>what scenes you watched
each and all scene featured on fapservice's posts about this show
sure thing
>doesn't mean he's right
that's a matter of opinions, and while it's definitely up for discussion there's no outcome that will result in "he's wrong so he's affected by a mental disorder"
>with enough time
with enough time pigs might evolve into sapient beings and outclass us
you have a lot of remorse when eating pig meat?
it's not like I believe qb's right, but he functions well, he follows his culture's moral guidelines, and that's what leads me to say that he's definitely not affected by antisocial personality disorder, or any other disorder really
>how witty
glad you enjoyed them
he doesn't satisfy criteria C, D, E and G
you can easily find a copy of the DSM-5 online, go to page 271 and try to tick the boxes yourself
Shirou is just badly written and an idiot
you were literally born in the wrong generation, you would have liked the 50s, when throwing rocks to gays was hip and cool
I'll repeat myself, it's unlikely that transsexuals will steal all the jobs and your lunch if they become less discriminated
>my definition of a word is the same as that of a professionally used technical term, hence I can use the two interchangeably
huh
Nathaniel Reyes
>modifying you body via surgery

Just admit that people with gender dysphoria aren't on the DSM because of a political reason.
People with asperger can have a perfectly normal life and they are in the DSM since version IV.

Yes, I'm eager to know aswell. I'd go with something like ADHD, but I'm no professional.

You are talking about something that take millions of years, but the technology of the human civilizations grows exponentially, we have discovered more in past 200 years that in the first 6000, computers were the size of buildings 80 years ago.
>that's a matter of opinions, and while it's definitely up for discussion there's no outcome that will result in "he's wrong so he's affected by a mental disorder"

I already said that alien standards Kyubey could be completely healthy but wanted to compare him to human standards. But since we don't know about Kyubey's civilization let's use a similar example:
Do you think some human invader in James Cameron's Avatar have a mental disorder?
Cooper Bailey
Does mental retardation count as a mental disorder?
Adam Sanchez
>he doesn't satisfy criteria C, D, E and G
He does
Criteria C is avoidance,"Trauma-related external reminders" which he shows by avoiding the center of the town where the fire occurred. He also never thinks about or discusses his biological parents whom were lost in the fire fulfilling "Trauma-related thoughts or feelings"
Criteria D:
"Exaggerated blame of self or others for causing the trauma"
Criteria E:
"Risky or destructive behavior"
Criteria G:
Symptoms create distress or functional impairment (e.g., social, occupational). He only has one friend ie issei, and the brown haired mentions to him how he doesn't fit in with others at school.
You'd make a really shit psychologist

Andrew Mitchell

even if that was true none of that is harmind you or stealing resources from you, so you have no reason to be thins prejudiced
gender dysphoria is a mental disorder recognized by the DSM-5 though, so what are you talking about?
>normal
frogposters aren't normal either but that doesn't automatically make them affected by a mental disorder
>he corrected me
>I'll say he's just splitting hairs
well I responded to all of your points earlier, gender dysphoria is still in the DSM and there's nothing denigrating your idea of masculinity in any apa guideline
but if you read something I didn't, by all means point it out
have you read the "two or more of the following" part?
these symptoms also refer to a pathological level, Shirou didn't have many issues going where the fire occurred and talking about it when he was asked to do so
surely you can review the rest without my help
don't know the character, sorry
Gabriel Cook
user, celebrities do not live "normal lifestyles".
Not at all.
They're usually quite fucked.
Matthew Perry
Criterion D:
Inability to recall key features of the trauma
Overly negative thoughts and assumptions about oneself or the world
Exaggerated blame of self or others for causing the trauma
Negative affect
Decreased interest in activities
Feeling isolated
Difficulty experiencing positive affect
D is the only criteria which requires more than one point to be met, and he meets multiple of these. He never goes to where the fire occurred either btw, not that talking about it or going to where it happened would preclude PTSD mind you.
Austin Bell
>even if that was true none of that is harmind you or stealing resources from you, so you have no reason to be thins prejudiced
not him but are you being stupid on purpouse?
Adam Campbell
you twist people's words into things they didn't say to make their arguments seem lesser. You'll make a great psychologist
Justin Brown
>No he's trying to obscure the point by splitting hairs about details.
You claimed that they removed "transgenderism" from the DSM. He probably thought you just meant the term "transgenderism," because "gender dysphoria" is still in the DSM and he overestimated your intelligence enough to think that you knew that.
Essentially you're upset because he only pointed out one of the two ways in which you were wrong.
Carson Jones
Sounds awfully similiar...
Benjamin Bailey
I wasn't the original poster , I was just making the point that "transgenderism" was in the DSM by way of it's synonym "transsexualism".
Asher Fisher
>gender dysphoria is a mental disorder recognized by the DSM-5 though, so what are you talking about?
>"transgenderism" has never been in the DSM
That's like saying that the poles aren't covered by "frozen water".
Don't pretend that something isn't in the DSM when the same concept with a different name is in the DSM.
