What Problems Might Patients Cause if Attached to the Collins Software Projects ?
Question by counterspy: What problems might patients cause if attached to the Collins software projects ?
Patients with personality disorders share certain characteristics:
1. Except those suffering from the Schizoid or the Avoidant Personality Disorders, they are insistent and demand preferential and privileged treatment. They complain about numerous symptoms, though they frequently second guess the diagnosis and disobey the physician, his treatment recommendations and instructions.
2. They feel unique, are affected with grandiosity and a diminished capacity for empathy. Consequently, they regard the physician as inferior to them, alienate him and bore him with their self-preoccupation.
3. They are manipulative and exploitative, trust no one and find it difficult to love or share. They are socially maladaptive and emotionally labile.
4. Disturbed cognitive and, mainly, emotional development peaks in adolescence.
5. Personality disorders are stable and all-pervasive – not episodic or transient. They affect all the dimensions of the patient’s life: his career, his interpersonal relationships, his social functioning.
6. Though the patient is sometimes depressed and suffers from mood and anxiety disorders – defenses – splitting, projection, projective identification, denial, intellectualization – are so strong, that the patient is unaware of the reasons for his distress. The character problems, behavioral deficits and emotional deficiencies and instability encountered by the patient with personality disorder are, mostly, ego-syntonic. This means that the patient does not, on the whole, find his personality traits or behavior objectionable, unacceptable, disagreeable, or alien to his self.
7. The patient is prone to suffer from other psychiatric disturbances, both personality disorders and Axis I disorders (“co-morbidity”). Substance abuse and reckless behaviors are also common (“dual diagnosis”).
8. Defenses are alloplastic: patients tend to blame the external world for their misfortune and failures. In stressful situations, they try to preempt a (real or imaginary) threat, change the rules of the game, introduce new variables, or otherwise influence the external world to conform to their needs.
9. The personality-disordered are not psychotic. They have no hallucinations, delusions or thought disorders (except those who suffer from a Borderline Personality Disorder and who experience brief psychotic “microepisodes”, mostly during treatment). They are also fully oriented, with clear senses (sensorium), good memory and general fund of knowledge.

That is a very complex question and I don’t think that you can just put a ‘type’ person down to all the problems associated with collins, no doubt there were certain unstable and eccentric personalities involved, but this is not uncommon in something with such a wide ranging scope of variance 🙂

Alcohol Abuse Disorder – This disorder is well known to most of us. Remember that tolerance is built up over time, explaining the increase in intake of alcohol. Initially most substance abuse begins with the euphoric sensations the substance creates, soon however, once our body gets used to the substance, use of the substance mutates the user into a creature desperately and continual attempting to avoid the awful symptoms of withdrawal. So substance abuse is really the change from the pursuit of pleasure to the avoidance of withdrawal.
