Can psychosis be diagnosed from BB posts?

This is so sad.

I really don’t know what to make of it.

He may not be posting, but I’m sure he’s reading, so to Phaedrus I say:

If you imagine for one minute that I would invoke my professional title and standing to bother a U.S. Congressman in an attempt to discern your bona fides, you seriously over-estimate the degree to which I care who you are or what prompts your actions.

I’m glad you’ve decided to stop posting and decided to get some help, because I honestly believe you really need it. Good luck.

Leave him be.

It may appear as if Phaedrus has built a fragile world for himself, but he has an astounding ability to compensate every time one of us forces reality on him. He’ll never admit to that which we all suspect. Any further attempts to “call his bluff” will only serve to prolong what has finally become a sad (and in many way cruel) joke.

I have to agree with Elmer. If we continue to give him attention, even negative attention, he will never seek help.

The most kind thing to do would be to allow all these threads to just drop off the screen.

But Manny, you will inform us of any developments, won’t you?

Six pages, and no one’s posted this link?

Huh.

All bow down before Cecil! Either he has a time machine or he’s psychic! Y’see, he KNEW that Phaedrus would come along to bother us, so he wrote that column FOUR YEARS ahead of time, knowing that we’d need it. The fact that Cecil did not mention Phaedrus by name is intentional. Doing so would’ve given away the secret: Cecil is GOD.

Post #801. (I forgot to check my Profile. Post #800 is elsewhere.)

Sounds like a schizophrenic with delusions of grandeur who has gone off of his medications to me. That is my informal opinion, NOT an official diagnosis (per the original OP of this thread, I don’t believe it’s possible to develop psychological diagnoses based on BBS posts. No matter how long.)

I’m amazed at just how similar Cherokee is to the Lakota tongue.


Tom~

You guys think you’re so smart. Heck, I called this one back on Nov 30th, 1999.

Phaedrus, if you are still listening, I strongly urge you to go back to the flat earth thread. Find my post of Nov 30th, 1999. Read it. Think about it. You cannot escape yourself. You’re delusions will be your own downfall. When they shatter it’ll hurt.

OH, PLEASE, WON’T ANYONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!


If you knew what I know, everything would make sense; and if it didn’t, you’d know enough to know not to worry about it – The God of Somebody Else

not wanting to nitpick-

but does this sound like a threat to you?

And by including that photo, it now takes much longer to download the page. Thanks a bunch.

Alright, since the guy’s on his way out I’ll do him a favor: Provide a link to the document he refers that actually tries to provide evidence, rather than dead links:

Top Evidences Against the Theory of Evolution

I think the bibliography is the most revealing.

Tom~: The Cherokee and Lakota use different fonts when they speak. Everyone knows that.

Dojo. Casino. It’s all in the mind.

Holy mother of god! Did anyone actually read through that??? I sure as hell didn’t!

You know, though, I had to wonder when I saw this today if it was a sign…

It appears some of the “science” proving Origin of the Species is pretty shaky, indeed. Some of what Ken posted might have made sense, if we weren’t so frustrated with the rest of his posts.

Experience is what you get when you didn’t get what you wanted.

as I was saying before you guys interrupted me
I think the most revealing part of the page linked to was the bibliography.

And Tom~, everybody knows the Cherokee and Lakota people speak in similar languages, but different fonts.

Careful Tom, or Phaedy will call you a Wasichu!


It’s worth the risk of burning, to have a second chance…

To which I would reply, “Gesundheit!”

Okay, I’ve never responded to Phaed before that I can recall, but here goes:

First, sexual harassment requires that a plain sexual suggestion be made. Mere ‘dirty words’ are not enough. It further requires a threat by a person to confer or withhold a benefit or advancement. No such threat was made that I can see, since no one here has any power over you. Since you had, at all times, power to end the harassment by no longer coming to this public message board (unlike an employee, who MUST continue to work to make a living), you can in no way claim sexual harassment.

Second, as you oughtta know, you’d have to file your suit in a location where the court would have jurisdiction over the person you claim harassed you. You’d best be prepared to do a lot of traveling…

Third, I’d love to see your supposed court case(s). Give me a cite. I have access to LEXIS and Westlaw, plus a large law library just up the street.

Pretty sloppy, for a supposed lawyer…

Also, posting the same gobbledygook twice, in different fonts, doesn’t make it two different languages.

Very spartan homepage, by the way. http://members.aol.com/cageybee008/myhomepage/

Kudos Max for the link - did he post it or did you do a simple email or photo search. Yep I looked at it. It is clear, there is NO online life, No interests, Nothing about him - I guess he’s a nobody.

Has somebody called Yoko about this?
