Emotigraphia

Emotigraphia is a unique and captivating mental disorder that affects an individual's ability to express and understand emotions through traditional means of communication. People with Emotigraphia experience a distinctive impairment in their ability to convey emotions through facial expressions, vocal tone, and body language, which are the typical channels for emotional expression.

Individuals with Emotigraphia find it challenging to express their emotions in a conventional manner, often appearing stoic or devoid of visible emotional cues. They may struggle to exhibit the expected facial expressions associated with joy, sadness, anger, or surprise, making it difficult for others to accurately interpret their emotional state.

Instead of relying on conventional modes of expression, people with Emotigraphia develop a remarkable ability to channel their emotions through alternative means. They may express their feelings through abstract art, using vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and unconventional brushstrokes to convey the depth and intensity of their emotions. Others might turn to writing, crafting prose and poetry that captures the essence of their innermost thoughts and feelings.

It is noteworthy that despite the challenges in traditional emotional expression, individuals with Emotigraphia often possess a heightened sensitivity to the emotions of others. They are exceptionally perceptive to subtle cues and nuances in voice tone, body language, and written words, allowing them to develop a deep sense of empathy and understanding.

While Emotigraphia can pose obstacles in social interactions and may lead to misunderstandings, it also offers a unique perspective on emotional experience. Those with Emotigraphia often navigate the world with a profound appreciation for the complexities and intricacies of human emotion, recognizing that the true essence of feelings transcends conventional boundaries.

Intense Emotion Impulse Disorder (IEID)

Overview: Intense Emotion Impulse Disorder is a psychological disorder characterized by the inability to experience emotions until they reach an intense level. Individuals with IEID display a remarkable capacity to mimic and express emotions despite feeling relatively numb or detached most of the time. This disorder challenges the conventional understanding of emotional expression and creates unique challenges for both the affected individuals and their social interactions

Symptoms:

Emotional Numbness: People with IEID often report feeling emotionally detached and void of intense emotions on a day-to-day basis. They may struggle to connect with and understand their own feelings, perceiving emotional experiences as muted or distant.
Emotional Delay: The hallmark symptom of IEID is the delayed onset of emotions. Individuals with IEID may go through prolonged periods of emotional neutrality or indifference, seemingly unresponsive to situations that would typically evoke strong emotional reactions in others. Instead, they exhibit an emotional "build-up" over time until the emotion reaches a threshold of intensity.
Intense Emotional Outbursts: When emotions finally reach the threshold of intensity, individuals with IEID display highly amplified emotional responses that can seem disproportionate to the triggering event. They may exhibit explosive emotional outbursts, such as intense anger, uncontrollable crying, or exaggerated happiness, even if the initial emotional trigger seems inconsequential.
Emotional Masking: individuals with IEID have developed the ability to mimic and act out emotions convincingly. They often maintain socially expected emotional responses, allowing them to blend into typical social interactions. This emotional masking can make it challenging for others to recognize that their emotional experiences are fundamentally different.

Maleconesthesia/Dysconesthesia

A MUD/Medically Unrecognized Disorder characterized by the presence of:

extreme sensitivity that gradually increases over a long period of tiem with a slow loss of/inability to go into a disassociative/shock state to protect yourself from overwhelm (which may cause physical reactions like sweating, nausea, crying and panic; and at worst epileptic symptoms, most common being partial awareness absence seizures [looks similar to a fugue states] which can last anywhere from 1 minute to 5 minutes)
hyperesthesia, and often the ability to feel parts of the body one usually shouldn't even when not in pain (spleen, liver, gallbladder, ect). People with this MUD may complain of feeling their heart pounding constantly, or that their guts are squirming/moving. This may look like or mimic Medical OCD or Hypochondria to others, but isn't usually based in fear or obsession.
broad spectrum/general synesthesia . defined by wikipedia as "the production of a sense impression relating to one sense or part of the body by stimulation of another sense or part of the body." . This causes an extreme connection and intertwining of senses and bodily perception, hence the name of the disorder.
unusual sensory perceptions and fluctuating levels of sensory ability. May go through periods of good hearing or sight, or periods of hard hearing and poor sight. Also prone to misinterpreting feelings and sense, such as feeling butterflies-in-your-stomach as nausea, or tickling as burning like a rash.
strong emotions can seem physically painful and affect parts of the body
strong responses to sensory input usually deemed unimportant or natural to others. Can include rage, panic and extreme sadness (or even extreme happiness).
Misophonia and Misokinesia come to mind and may be symptoms of this MUD, as well as similar Miso- conditions related to other senses.
common "Sensory Flashbacks" triggered by smells, textures or even temperatures. Often related to harmless memories like the feeling of cold air in your old bedroom, or how the air smelled in your grandma's living room.
psychosomatic symptoms and placebo affect are extremely easy to access
often thinks in senses, as they have greater meaning due to enhanced perception.
may be obsessed by certain colors or experiences and become obsessed with them, regardless of their harmfulness to the person. Sensory seeking is incredible common in this MUD and pain/discomfort is often seen as a necessity to a steady quality of life.

Functional Adaptability:Adaptive functioning in response to quantum emotional fluctuations. Individuals with QEFD may develop unique coping mechanisms and strategies to navigate the ever-changing emotional landscape, demonstrating a degree of functional adaptability.
Temporal Emotionality:Variability in the temporal expression of emotions. Emotions may manifest with different durations and intensities, leading to a fluid and dynamic emotional experience that extends beyond conventional timelines.
