Folie imposée is where a dominant person (known as the 'primary', 'inducer' or 'principal') initially forms a delusional belief during a psychotic episode and imposes it on another person or persons (known as the 'secondary', 'acceptor' or 'associate') with the assumption that the secondary person might not have become deluded if left to his or her own devices. If the parties are admitted to hospital separately, then the delusions in the person with the induced beliefs usually resolve without the need of medication.
Folie simultanée describes either the situation where two people considered to suffer independently from psychosis influence the content of each other's delusions so they become identical or strikingly similar, or one in which two people "morbidly predisposed" to delusional psychosis mutually trigger symptoms in each other.[SUP][[/SUP]

Don't you THINK that
a hat-trick on mental afflictions
in nine hours is too much for a forum :ranger:
though it may O.K. in a classroom?

Don’t the Anglos have an equally beautiful phrase and call it “Stockholm syndrome” ?

Like when a bully and his side-kick(s) interact?

apologies, know the forum culture a bit now, especially if it comes from a veteran. signing of reminding myself not to take coffee or tea after 6pm in order to get a good sleep at 11 pm.

I am reminded of a character-factual of fictitious.

But that does not matter now.

Why is that people do not wait till a discussion starts

in one thread before launching another. :noidea:

Is that to display the width of knowledge or

avoid discussions to hide the depth of knowledge?? :noidea:

Several people did this but now are not seen anymore anywhere! :bolt:

This is a free forum and people can do what they feel right.

Whether or not the others agree is of no importance to such persons.

No need to apologise. Kindly be more descriptive, please. Your message is not very clear. You may possibly have a very good reason for starting threads on similar phenomenon.

As an indirect unrelated thought on this...
As Wiki Says, "This syndrome is most commonly diagnosed when the two or more individuals concerned live in proximity and may be socially or physically isolated and have little interaction with other people" - we should definitely watch out for the "socially isolated" term as the current day mob psychology seems to be working along these lines. Socially isolated when implied to mean social ignorance & social intolerance.
Although people in the psychiatric profession may argue that these are not clinical delusions & may label them as mass hysteria, the point i make is that, is cure possible at the epicenter of the minds of the people pelting stones, damaging public property - whether treating these mad men medically for delusional disorders be considered as an alternative approach to getting rid of antisocial elements??
