There's this mental disorder where people think their someone who they arent.

EXAMPLE: This REALLY REALLY weird a** girl in my school thinks shes on the show *One Tree Hill. Everyday she comes to school saying "OMg MY BF NATHAN DID blahblahblahblah......" && Some weird s**t like that. && She REALLY believes it...which is pretty scary.



I wonder if anyone thinks that their a party of the Gorillaz......... eek





*Stupidest show I've EVER seen. In my LIFE.





EDIT: Oh yea, && That girl is 16 turning 17. So its not like shes a little kid.

That's weird. I've never really heard of it, before.
What's it called?

Schizophrenia. Its a form of it i believe.

Er, I think it's actually a form of psychosis - though I'm pretty sure schizophrenia is a form of psychosis as well, so you're pretty right in saying that. ^.^'

My best friend's father had schizophrenia; he became convinced that his wife was cheating on him. Longer and more awful story than that, but she would rather I didn't talk about it, I'm sure.

Some people with similar forms of psychosis believe things including:
1. that they are dead
2. that people are swapping identities behind their backs
3. that they have a duplicate

and a lot of other stuff.

So I wouldn't put it in the 'impossible' category, for sure.

The brain is such an interesting organ.
And I find it so funny that we learn more about it from damaged ones than fully-functioning brains. xp

I'm taking psychology this year, see. ^.^ So, yeah. Hopefully we'll cover some of it. I'd really like to know how it works.

We really didn't cover mental disorders very much in my psychology class... sad

But that's probably because it was only a semester. Stupid high school. xp

Well, I'm sure that a university unit is a lot more intensive than a high school semester, no? There's one in final year called "Abnormal Psychology"... which should be fun.

I would love to take that class...

Crazy people attract...well...crazy people...sigh...

Same with mine. All we did was cover domestic abuse.

I know. First it was about the possiblitiy of a person believing they were part of the Gorillaz and now were talking about physcology in general. confused
Still, it's very interesting.
