pride and prejudice | 2004-09-07 - 11:19 p.m. Teresita, who's been taking clases at the local community college, told me algo interesante el otro d�a. Parece que the American Psychiatry Association has these criteria for assessing craziness. La mayor�a of the criteria are meant to mostrar how loco a person can get. But I believe some of them have a much larger -- and yes, a more sinister! -- aplicaci�n. �Check it out! NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER * Grandiosity (fantasized or actual), lack of empathy and need for admiration are present in a variety of situations and shown by at least 5 of: -A grandiose sense of self-importance (patient exaggerates own abilities and accomplishments) -Preoccupation with fantasies of beauty, brilliance, power or limitless success -Belief that personal uniqueness renders the patient fit only for association with (or understanding by) people or institutions of rarefied status -Need for excessive admiration -A sense of entitlement (patient unreasonably expects favorable treatment or automatic granting of own wishes) -Exploitation of others to achieve personal goals -Lack of empathy (patient does not recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others) -Frequent envy of others or belief that others envy patient -Arrogance or haughtiness in attitude or behavior Mierda. If the Estados Unidos were a human being, it'd be high time for a psychological intervention.
