Character Identity Transformation Disorder (CITD)

CITD is a delusional condition in which the sufferer becomes convinced that they are transforming into a specific fictional character from an established work of media. Unlike general character identification or cosplay, CITD involves a profound, unwavering belief that the individual is physically, mentally, and spiritually becoming that character. This delusion can manifest gradually, leading to a complete immersion into the character’s traits, behaviors, and even physical appearance.

Symptoms:

Color Theme: The color theme for CITD is a blend of deep purple, silver, and vibrant blue, symbolizing the blurring of reality and fantasy as the individual slips deeper into the identity of the character.

Visual Representation: A visual representation of CITD would feature a person in the midst of transformation, with parts of their body taking on the features of the fictional character, such as hair color or attire. The background would have a fractured effect, with pieces of the real world giving way to the character’s fictional universe, merging in a surreal, dreamlike manner. The figure’s face would show a blend of intense determination and confusion, as their original identity fades beneath the emerging persona of the character they believe they are becoming.

Delusional Dove Aversion Disorder (DDAD)

DDAD is a delusional condition characterized by an irrational and persistent belief that doves are inherently evil and bring bad luck. Individuals with DDAD see doves not as symbols of peace or purity, but as malevolent creatures that are harbingers of misfortune, deceit, and even danger. This delusion often leads to intense fear, avoidance behaviors, and distorted interpretations of situations involving doves.

Symptoms:

Color Theme: The color theme for DDAD is a stark combination of muted gray, representing the color of doves, combined with dark maroon and shadowy black, symbolizing fear, paranoia, and looming misfortune.

Visual Representation: A visual representation of DDAD would feature a figure standing in a dimly lit environment, surrounded by shadows of doves with glowing red eyes. The figure’s posture is tense, head lowered as if trying to hide, while the doves loom menacingly above. The scene is shrouded in a fog-like mist, emphasizing the person’s deep-seated dread and the eerie, ever-present sense of threat that the delusion brings.

Eldritch Insanity Disorder (EID)

A disorder characterized by a deluison in which one believes that they have, in some way, a personal connection to an eldritch-type deity and said belief causes them severe distress and extremely maladaptive symptoms parallel to Eldritch Insanity.

The diety is not a pre-existing god, but rather something unknown and all seeing.

The holder experiences episodes of psychosis between normal living periods which, in their mind, is caused by the deity connecting with them again.

The episodes always come with:

Other symptoms that aren't necessary but may be experienced are:

Episodes usually happen slowly until hitting a peak before calming back down into "sanity". The feeling of upset and distress may linger but it's able to be put to the side as the holder continues their life, which afterwards they may feel upset for holding "crazy beliefs" during the episode.

Holders engage in behaviour that seems erratic and irrational during episodes. This includes ranting, talking faster than normal, repetitive behaviours/movements, coming off as cold/numb, breaking off relationships, and becoming extremely pessimistic among other things.

Episodes are commonly triggered by stress in any form, but they also may happen on their own.

Holders of EID may only experience delusions and hallucinations during episodes, but no other times (unless they also suffer from comorbid disorders).

If someone you know suffers from EID, trying to keep them grounded in reality without reality checking is the best course of action until their episode declines. Not taking anything they say and or do personally is also important, as they may behave entirely different once the episode is over.

Solipsism Disorder(SoD)

(solipsism is the belief that only your consciousness is sure to exist and that there is no way to prove that others are real)

Solipsism disorder can only be diagnosed if the person is experiencing distress from their belief. if the belief of solipsism is not distressing and does not create any impairment then a diagnosis should not be assigned.

This can be caused by delusions, psychosis, derealization/dissociation, or other neurodivergence, or it can have no cause at all!

The person does not have to hold this belief fully(meaning it can just be a doubt or partial belief) or it can fluctuate/they can only believe it at certain times.

Symptoms of solipsism disorder

  1. the person does not believe that others are real, and thinks their conscious self is the only one that truly exists
  2. the person feels deeply and profoundly lonely because of this belief and often 'wishes it wasn't true'
  3. the person exhibits selfish behavior due to the belief, often similar to the behavior of those with npd, but without a related aggrandizement of self
  4. the person has trouble believing others have deep and rich lives like they do, and think that perhaps others do not feel as deeply as them

There are subtypes for this disorder!

  1. isolating solipsism disorder(I-SoD) in which the primary or only symptom is feeling lonely and alienated due to the belief that they are the only one who's 'real'
  2. self-focused solipsism disorder(SF-SoD) in which the primary or only symptom is exhibiting selfish behavior due to the belief that they are the only 'real' person. this subtype often causes intense distress for the person if they are aware at least partially that their belief is not true.
  3. generalized solipsism disorder(G-SoD or simply SoD) an umbrella term for solipsism disorders that do not fit either of the above categories
