Trump *IS* delusional. I believe he really sees himself this way.

As someone who deals with mental illness on a personal level, I believe he may be headed toward a psychotic break.

The problem with that is some people who experience a psychotic break become much more dangerous even if they weren't considered dangerous before, and that is not true of Trump. We know he's dangerous.

I found that might be resistant to #AI #psychosis because I've completely internalized that any compliment or praise is disingenuous and may be retracted or reversed at a moment's notice throughout my upbringing

Everytime the model says I did something really well or have revealed a surprising insight, I flinch.

Thanks, Mom. Thanks, Dad.

You raised a very depressed and insecure John Connor.

#psychosis can result from the spiral of upbeat endorsement #AI showers on users. One psychiatrist was deeply sceptical of this claim but a dig into the research findings confirmed.

And this is a matter on top of the dangerous atrophying of cognitive function from AI offloading.

Clinicians worried that methylphenidate might raise psychosis risk in ADHD can take note: this large Finnish cohort found no such link — and in children diagnosed under 13, sustained treatment was associated with reduced risk.

Methylphenidate Treatment and Risk of Psychotic Disorder

This cohort study of a Finnish national multiyear birth cohort uses instrumental variable analysis to investigate whether methylphenidate alters the long-term risk of psychotic disorder in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

This one was a hard to write story. TW/CW, it involves some VERY real, VERY hard topics that involve a heavy amount of #psychosis and difficult to reconcile thoughts. Read at your caution.
