Most psychological conditions are just ordinary irrational human tricks turned up louder than usual, that's all. Anybody can just slightly play up their personal quirks and very soon someone else WILL see that behavior as being "crazy." Sometimes it doesn't even take that much. But what do you expect? In this world, the lunatics run the asylum.
