Cloud and Shinji can start a club. The Dependent-Avoidant with Schizoid Tendencies Brough On By Severe Depression and C-PTSD Club. No Avens or Smelly Therapists allowed. Therapists have cooties.

Yeah! Who needs that lame psychology crap, anyway? That stuff is fake, uh, stuff.

Frankenstein's Monster:

  • Paranoid: Very High
  • Schizoid: High
  • Schizotypal: Moderate
  • Antisocial: High
  • Borderline: Very High
  • Histrionic: Very High
  • Narcissistic: High
  • Avoidant: High
  • Dependent: High
  • Obsessive-Compulsive: Moderate

The whole being hideous and unloved thing probably made a few of those inaccurately high, but still. This is what happens when you don't take care of your artificially-created adult children, boys and girls.

I knocked down Cloud's paranoid score down to Moderate because he actually can sense shit, being a superhuman with latent psychic abilities and all. Still nuts, anyway.

I think The Creature wins, though.

Mind you, it's not enitrely accurate, since it sort of lumps Schizoid and Avoidant together and yet claims they're usually mutually exclusive. But still.

Indeed.

Alpha possibly confirmed for only sane person.

Though even that's kinda iffy, what with the growing homesickness and the pressure to keep up appearances and the guilt at having actually killed people and Kirb's death still kind of hitting hard and the virus in the back of his mind slowly eroding his sanity and gorging itself off his negative emotions.

This is largely unrelated, but it's always bothered me how mental illness is portrayed in media — like it's the crazy person's fault for being crazy, and if only that guy with the depression would just change his mindset and stopped being so damn gloomy, he'd feel better, and his new friends will show him that. In song! Stuff like that.

Oh hey, there's an article here. Text steal.

Except for extreme cases such as paranoid schizophrenia, or conditions with sympathetic social connotations (Down syndrome; severe autism), there is a tendency in media to regard mental disorders as some kind of put-on or character flaw that is at best amusing, at worst annoying. [...] At the very worst, a person is portrayed as being completely able to break out of their illness if they were to simply try hard enough — in other words they're just plain lazy in addition to the behavior itself. Depressive? Cheer up! Manic? Just take a deep breath and calm down. Obsessive-compulsive? Relax already. Delusional? Get a grip on that overactive imagination. An eating disorder? Please. You look fine! Hyperactive? Control yourself, my God. Paranoid? It's not all about you, you know! Anxiety with panic disorder? Suck it up, coward!

Of course, there's the other end of the scale, where the author goes so far to make a point about the illness that the entire character becomes the illness and has no personality beyond a walking list of symptoms, but... yeah.

  • Dad Instinct: High
  • Buddy Abandonment: Low
  • Chemist-Related Memetic Disorder: Low
  • Punchtabulousness: High
  • Eyepatch: Very High
  • Arm Loss Potential: Moderate

Yeah, that irks me, too. Chemical imbalances in the brain can't exactly be willed away.

Lodger can join the No Smelly Therapists Club.

Cassie has to stay outside, though.
