This open-ended discussion taken from my straightforward opinions is inspired by and redirected to [noble_time] Sam's Y360 blog entry on Dec 9^th titled “People 360 - A Fantasy or Reality".

Try to breathe lightly, when taking people's issues into your own hands. Your keen observations might offer a Reality Check for whom possibly requires a clinical diagnosis and therapy, but not worth your repulsive reaction to resentment. Sometimes virtual worlds warp human needs in real connections and cause more harms to one another's physical and/or emotional wellbeing. To say the least, any conscious mind may just hold the wisdom to rise above a pity to see to the questionable conditions more positively.

Human natures are complex. Human conditions can all be logically analyzed for solving deep rooted psychosis in order to regain a healthy balance to human relations. Although it might be by any occasion to run into a Schizophrenia blogger in virtual worlds, and their deranged mental states are loud warning signs to stay out. On the other hand, one possible abusive condition to be looked into the socio-behavioral disturbances that pique your interests in any of those questionable personae is Manic Depression. Of which their projected altered-egos in disconnected fantasies and disorderly conducts are often misinterpreted by curious bystanders for pseudo-romanticism.

The dysfunctional behaviors of Manic Depression symptoms could be traced to one's self-defeated failure in overcoming any traumatic event taken place in that person's life. A loss of job or a rejection by their mates can suddenly and progressively trigger a mental breakdown and set forth an unconscious destruction to induce that person's lost grips on practical meanings of life into overrated self-pity abyss. Dark as its black spells seem to be eternal inferno, but only can it be cured by that person's conscious awakening to snap out of one's altered-reality. Human brains are the most powerful things in life.

When if to observe anyone's dramatic changes in social conducts and mood swings, Manic Depression symptoms are obvious to be suspected as in Jackel & Hyde.

* Severe Chronic Depression: withdrawal from daily activities that were once enjoyed, withdrawal from friends & families in real life, persistent thoughts of death, suicidal tendency.
* Impaired Judgment: tendency to be easily distracted, easily agitated or irritated, poor temper control, over-involvement in activities, difficulty in concentrating / remembering / making decisions.
* Elevated Moods: racing thoughts, hyper-activity, lack of self-control.
* Persistent Sadness: loss of self-esteem, feelings of worthlessness / hopelessness / guilt.
* Fatigue or Listlessness: sleep disturbances, excessive sleepiness, chronic insomnia.
* Inflated Self-esteem: delusions of grandeur, false beliefs in one's special abilities such as boasting libido sex drives.
* Reckless Behaviors: spending sprees, binge eating, heavy drinking, drug-abuse, sexual promiscuity.

Yet, the more possibly common encounter with another altered-ego weird blogger experiment is Personality Disorder. Characterized by impulsivity and instability in self-image and personal relations, Personality Disorder is associated with neglect, abuse, or inconsistent parenting, all of which create problems with a person’s childhood identity and personality. Symptoms are marked similar to Manic Depression, except Personality Disorder is laden with a person’s neurotic behaviors of maddening obsession attached to lustful desires that can be identified as in Quasimodo & Casanova.

* Intense Depression: mood swings with intense sadness, long-lasting anxiety, irritability, uncontrolled anger, suicidal tendency.
* Frantic Obsession: impulsiveness & excessiveness in sexual activities / drug-abuse / heavy drinking / spending sprees / binge eating, intense relationships with extreme black and white views, alternating judgmental views between ‘all good’ or ‘all bad’.
* Excessive Worry: fanatically worry about money / work / health / family / relationship.
* Sleeping Disorder: insomnia, fatigue, trembling, muscle tension, headache.
* Chronic Boredom: frantic efforts to avoid abandonment either in real life or delusional fantasy.

To see through the others is to know oneself. Who we associate with in virtual worlds and in real life is a long projection onto mirror mirror on the wall who is the true self after all.

Keep questioning on deeper meanings of Life and we may learn something valuable about ourselves and in the others :-)
Breeze & Breathe. Life is not a mystery.
