DSM-IV - (1994)




2955.30  (P.287)


"  Schizophrenia - Paranoid Type

     Delusions are typically persecutory or grandiose, or both,

      but delusions with other themes (eg. jealously, religiosity, or somatization) may also occur.

      The delusions  may be multiple, but are usually organized around a coherent theme.

      Hallucinations are also typically related to the content  of  of the delusional theme.

      Associated features include anxiety, anger, aloofness, and argumentativeness.  The

       individual may have a superior and patronizing manner and either a stilted,  a formal quality

       or extreme intensity in interpersonal interactions.".........

       Anyone you know?  I saw the grandiose behavior  etc. during the "shut down".

       The mass media has created a problem airing these half-baked nuts.

        The First Amendment permits free speech;  including the crazies and the liars.

         The  T.V. could possibly have corrections written below to clarify the truth from the lies.
