:thinking: Hi, I`m Kelsey, and I have suffered Obsessive Chrissy Disorder for tooo many years...

Chris Martin has COD?

 

 

No he's a vegetarian he doesn't eat cod fish. :shrug:

 

No, I think he meant Call of Duty. But either way, I don't think he has it. He doesn't seem like the gamer type.

:facepalm:

+1

 

 

 

 

 

 

:lol:

I don't think so. I think he'd know and be open about it if he did. He's just a hyper, happy guy and I love him for that. :nice:

I'm also Hyper and Happy , and can't do nothing for 1 minute ..

I don't have OCD or Adhd

what's wrong with being Hyper all the time ?

Yeah, I don't think Chris has COD, or Call Of Duty since he's a vegetarian and doesn't really play video games like Will and Jonny :lol:

 

I don't think he has OCD either... possibly ADHD, but that's a whole other issue.

Pardon my stupid question, but could someone explain to me briefly what OCD and ADHD are? Too lazy to google it...

...and there was me thinking he had Call of Duty for the PS3, he could have added me ;) I wouldn't mind him putting a few bullets in me, if ya'know what I mean :smug:

 

Took two whole pages for someone to say that? :laugh3:

 

Not enough geeky males on here obviously.

I'll throw in another amateur diagnosis :P

 

Hypomania!

It would be strange if he had OCD :confused:

Can somebody just delete this thread already? I'd be super embarrassed if Debs ever saw it. :dozey:

I'll throw in another amateur diagnosis :P

 

Hypomania!

 

I only have a serious "chrissymania":D

I think I'm very serious, but not contagious.....the patients -mostly the female gender-are all in the pavilion for obsessive compulsive "Chrissy thread":rolleyes4:

I thought this was gonna be about Call Of Duty. </3

Maybe.. Do you have dyslexia?

being as hyper as he is, its AD/HD Not OCD :/ I suffer from it too :(

There have been worse threads than this one... but did you ever think about where those definitions come from?

 

I think most people don't even know exactly what it is.

(And Hypomania isn't that bad a diagnosis to have :lol:)

 

 

If anyone's interested in this, I advise you for a quick read to read the Wikipedia article about the Classification of mental disorders.

 

What is essential however is the definition part

In the scientific and academic literature on the definition or categorization of mental disorder, one extreme argues that it is entirely a matter of value judgements (including of what is normal) while another proposes that it is or could be entirely objective and scientific (including by reference to statistical norms); other views argue that the concept refers to a "fuzzy prototype" that can never be precisely defined, or that the definition will always involve a mixture of scientific facts (e.g. that a natural or evolved function isn't working properly) and value judgements (e.g. that it is harmful or undesired). Lay concepts of mental disorder vary considerably across different cultures and countries, and may refer to different sorts of individual and social problems.

 

The World Health Organization (WHO) and national surveys report that there is no single consensus on the definition of mental disorder/illness, and that the phrasing used depends on the social, cultural, economic and legal context in different contexts and in different societies. The WHO reports that there is intense debate about which conditions should be included under the concept of mental disorder; a broad definition can cover mental illness, mental retardation, personality disorder and substance dependence, but inclusion varies by country and is reported to be a complex and debated issue. There may be a criterion that a condition should not be expected to occur as part of a person's usual culture or religion. However, despite the term "mental", there is not necessarily a clear distinction drawn between mental (dys)functioning and brain (dys)functioning, or indeed between the brain and the rest of the body.

 

Those definitions are made in the context of what is considered "normal" (whatever that may be) which varies between cultures.

This changes over time as well, more things get added, some removed. Lots of discussions involved...

If you are more interested, read about DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) and ICD-10.

 

 

In general it appears to me that people are often too quick with giving a layperson's diagnosis... it surely makes it easier to describe a certain pattern of behaviour however you should be careful to "shelve" people (if that is the term). :uhoh:

 

I don't know if it makes sense what I'm writing here, but I just wanted to say that it varies what is considered "normal" or what diverges from the norm. :thinking:

 

 

End of long post. :P

C.O.D. actually stands for Cash On Delivery, but maybe that's true too!:P

 

Does anyone else think that CHris has C.O.D or is it just me??? :shocked2:

Thats why we love him.. Garsh he's cute. :wacko:

you're being all fan-girly there ;)

Ummm...no. ADHD, maybe. OCD, just no. :tongue:

you're being all fan-girly there ;)

 

:shame:

I know.. It makes me sick :sick:

That's called being creative and inspired. :)

true that, is said that many artist/creative people have some kind of 'illness', i mean is common to read that some writers, painters, musicians have disorders as Bipolar and others, as when they are as most of you say 'hyper' - really happy of their work, and so focused on it development - is when they share some behaviour that can be considered out of the norm or obsessive.

 

I don't think so. I think he'd know and be open about it if he did. He's just a hyper, happy guy and I love him for that. :nice:

not all artist are open about having some disorder, some them have it and reckon it many years after they are 'famous'. anyways is part of their private life, i mean is his decition to reckon it or not.
