Guest Book Page SCHIZOID PERSONALITY DISORDER The key word in schizoid personality disorder is "isolation." These persons are the embodiment of the autonomous personality. They are willing to sacrifice intimacy in order to preserve their detachment and autonomy. VIEW OF SELF They see themselves as self-sufficient and as loners. They prize mobility, independence, and solitary pursuits. They would rather make decisions by themselves and carry out solo activities than be involved in a group. VIEW OF OTHERS They see other people as intrusive. They view closeness as opening opportunities for other people to fence them in. BELIEF S: Their core beliefs consist of notions such as "I am basically alone," "Close relationships with other people are unrewarding and messy," "I can do things better if I'm not encumbered by other people, "Close relationships are undesirable because they interfere with my freedom of action." The conditional beliefs are "If I get too close to people, they will get their hooks in me," "I can't be happy unless I have complete mobility." The

SCID CONSULTATION CORNER We often get calls for "telephone consultations" concerning difficult or confusing SCID (or DSM-IV-TR diagnostic) questions. Here is a sampling of some questions that may be of general interest or that provide good teaching points. Q: A homeless woman who has never had psychiatric treatment was interviewed in a community study. She reported, in answer to the question in Module B about persecutory delusions, that people are always giving her a hard time. and that other people in the shelter are always trying to push her around. According to her, she’s been fired from several jobs because of "bad bosses" who have had it in for her, and she also reports that her family treats her very badly. In response to the question about grandiose delusions, she said that she had a special relationship with God, and that He expects her to do something really good with her life. He also helps her through her depressed times. She denies ever hearing God’s voice, but says that she communicates with him through prayer. (She was unable to elaborate more specifically about any of these ideas). What is the rating on the SCID item about persecutory delusions?

Disclamers Link to us 3/8/2004 8:20:38 AM [Gil Le Bell] Bush Diagnosed with Mental Disorder [0 comments] An anonymous source within the Whitehouse has informed EGI that President George W. Bush may be suffering from a mental disorder.  Those close to the President are very concerned with the Presidents mental state.  One source told EGI that they believe George Bush is Schizophrenic. Another claims the President is suffering from what is commonly referred to as Multiple Personality Disorder. Psychic Psychiatrist Francine Oakrum spoke with EGI regarding Mr. Bush's condition. "Although I have never spoken with the President in person, I have been able to use my psychic abilities to diagnose his symptoms." "Many people think that Schizophrenia and Multiple Personality Disorder are the same thing.  This is not the case.  Schizophrenia typically consists of bizarre delusions or hallucinations consisting of two or more voices conversing with each other or of a voice effecting a person's behaviors or thoughts." "My psychic powers tell me that the President suffers from Multiple Personality Disorder, in which one day’s personality will say one thing, and the next day an alternate personality will say something conflicting with the previous day’s statements.  We should have noticed this behavior much sooner, but those close to the President just thought it was political posturing."

Why should you spend your life being sad? Don't you want to be 'normal'. Take this happy pill and you will be just like this beautiful supermodel who frolicks on the beach with a never-ending smile on her face. Look at her. She feels so alive, so happy, so full of energy. This is how everybody else feels and you have been missing out this whole time! What are you waiting for? Take Effexoritaphanylenol and reclaim your life. By the way: this drug might cause dry mouth, dizziness, nervousness, anxiety, tremor, blurred vision......" Everyone has a pet disorder these days. Everyone has a disease. No one has a choice. No one takes responsibility. Everyone lets the pills do all of the work. Don't get out of line, they say. You must regress to the mean. Can't concentrate? You must be a victim of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Feeling depressed? You are a victim of Bipolar Disorder. Don't feel like talking? You have Social Anxiety Disorder. Feeling tired? You must be suffering from 'Adrenal Insufficiency'. The good news is: we have a cure. The solution: just take this shot glass of Paxil, crack, and Advil. It might make you shit all over yourself , but at least you won't be sad about it.
