The President of the USA Has A Mental Illness

Post by screen glare » Mon Feb 13, 2017 8:24 pm

Narcissistic Personality Disorder is a mental illness for which there is no known cure. The only treatment is talk therapy. Trump suffers from NPD. Every symptom is clearly visible in his track record of words and actions. Look up the list of symptoms of NPD. Trump is the embodiment of each symptom. In detail!

Who will be first to point out convincingly to the country - the emperor is naked? Each day it becomes more clear that a mentally ill man who desperatly needs treatment is in charge.

I can't remember any Presidents who didn't have this disorder, at least in our lifetime. It is a prerequisite for holding high public office, worldwide. You have to be kind of crazy to seriously seek power at this level. It kind of reminds me of that Neil Patrick Harris graph from "How I Met Your Mother". His character, Barney, says that all women are at least a 4 on the 10 point crazy axis, and the ones that are "hot" and not crazy are "unicorns". Women have come up with a similar graph for men. So a President that is not seriously narcissistic is a "unicorn" also. If you add up the percentage of Sociopaths that are broadcast journalists and the ones that are print journalists, journalist is the #1 Sociopathic profession, ahead of CEOs, surgeons, lawyers, etc. Look in the mirror at the three fingers that are pointing at you.

TC Shuts Up, you POINTEDLY do not have the ability to research. If you did you would grasp the important difference between a person who has high confidence and obvious self esteem - and another person who is CONTROLLED by their constant invasive narcissistic thoughts.

Those persons exhibit highly maladaptive behaviors in their words and actions - that cause chaos, confusion, and fear for those around them. This pattern happens as the person tries to associate within groups, and interact - whether at school, on the job, at home, or in any situation they encounter.

It is mental illness, TC Shuts Up. Not an endearing personality quirk.

Mental illness symptoms are behavioral, out of one's control, and able to cause damaging consequences for the sufferer and those around him.

And TC Shuts Up - your laughable "crazy" women, 4's, tens, graphs, and "similar for men" whatever - says everything about you. Unable to comprehend beyond sitcom analogies, T-A catagorizing, and cutting up the press.

screen glare must be only about 19 years old to not have remembered that WJC and BHO were also diagnosed by armchair psychologists like him as having NPD. screen glare acts like the diagnosis being applied to a POTUS is something new, typical of a cocky little college freshman who just took PSY 101. I'm sure that his PSY 101 professor spent several classroom lectures last semester wasting our tax dollars in PRAA, PREL, or PRMP, raging against Donald Trump. I stand by the assertion that only Narcissists seek world power on this level, and that the ones that are not are "unicorns".

screen glare is to Psychology and Journalism what Brian Fellows is to Animal Husbandry. TV characters are useful to diagnose screen glare.

Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter were probably two of the most down-to-earth presidents I've seen in my lifetime. As such, both seemed like fish out of water in the high office they held. Despite having campaigned against each other in 1976, the two became best of friends later in life....so much so that Ford asked Carter to deliver the eulogy at his funeral (which he did). There was a pragmatism and realism about both men that is sorely lacking in the political climate of this day and age. I'm not so sure how we get that back (or if we even want it) in a time when we regard our high officials more as celebrities than humble servants of the people.

Guess Screen Glare would have had an issue no matter which candidate won. :roll:
A psychological analysis of Hillary Clinton — Democratic nominee in the 2016 presidential election — by Rylee Pool and Aubrey Immelman, Ph.D., at the Unit for the Study of Personality in Politics, revealed that Clinton’s predominant personality patterns are Ambitious/self-serving (a measure of narcissism) and Dominant/controlling, infused with secondary features of the Conscientious/dutiful and Retiring/reserved patterns. In summary, Clinton’s personality composite can be characterized as an adaptive elitist narcissist.

New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

So a person who cares about themselves while thinking they are better than everyone and can adapt too... at least she could adapt...

The worst tyrants and authoritarians in History were bullied and picked on in school, work, or the military. A certain Corporal in the German Army comes to mind. So does a certain Film Festival organizer, that fortunately has been kept out of public office so far, except for that brief stint on the School Board.

Hitler happened partially because they were soft on Crime. If he would served his full sentence for the beer hall putsch, WW2 probably would have never happened.

Mostly because he filled a power vacuum...

All responses here are representative of the typical American's misinformed views on what constitutes mental illness.

First of all most Americans who would feel sympathy for and try to help a person suffering any other disease or illness of the body do not react the same way toward those suffering mental illnesses. There's denial, fear, and in general a blind eye toward mental illness. Hell, a vast number of homeless Americans thrown out on to the streets when state mental hospitals closed have ended up dead as victims of crimes or perpetrators of crimes. Mental hospitals left a lot to be desired but it was even more cruel to turn out onto the streets those suffering, helpless patients. Would you be that heartless with entire hospitals full of men and women, boys and girls, who were suffering other illnesses and diseases? Would you turn a blind eye, feel fear, and in general be put off or put out having to think about these patients?

It's true that many Americans feel more concern for abandoned pets than for abandoned mental illness patients.

So all the responses here are typical: Off handed. Uncomfortable. Glib. Sarcastic. Political.

However no matter the political party, or your lack of understanding about how self-confidence, ambition, vanity, and other personality tendencies are radically different from Narcissistic Personality DISORDER (of which research now reveals brain structural differences) you are not well served to ignore Trump's NPD. In fact you could be smug and self justifying to the peril of your country.

If a person had time to watch President Trump's first solo news conference IN ITS ENTIRETY this Thursday (2/16/17) that person would worry that - it's true - the 45th president of The United States of America is indeed mentally ill. A shockingly stark reality. Undeniable. Unnerving in its possible implications and consequences.

The whole event went on for what felt like at least forty minutes - perhaps longer. He was rambling. Delusional. Dropping words from sentences. When asked about his wife he also interjected his daughter Ivanka into the answer.

Try to watch it from begining to end.
