Talk about whatever you want as long as it's (even vaguely) related to MS.

Personality disorders?

Post by ness »

Do you think that personality disorders would work as well? Id love to play a VN with a fellow schizoid as a heroin.

I think it would work if the symptoms were right. It might be a little tricky to write for. I can't say if one of the heroines has schizophrenia though.

Schizoid Personality Disorder is something else entirely.

Please ignore the man behind the curtain with the poor reading comprehension. He is very sorry.

On the topic of Schizoid Personality Disorder: From a writer's standpoint, it seems hard to write for. If I were to write something over that, I'm really not sure how I'd do it. That's just coming from a preliminary wikipedia investigation though. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it ness.

well i feel that the character type is there (shy/socially awkward) and that just needs to be taken to another level. I wouldn't go to school if i wasn't forced to and i wouldn't go outside if i wasn't forced to. Having a route based on gaining someones trust and coaxing them into the real world doesn't seem to out there does it?

I've been thinking about this, so I might as well say it here.
We can't possibly have all the disorders. We'd like to, but we can't. However, we encourage you guys to educate your fellow forum goers by shedding whatever light you feel needs to be shed on whichever disorder you think; whether it be through discussion, fan fiction, fan art, whatever. You guys have the just as much power to do that as we do.
