diseases for the 7 deadly sins

[dreaming neon darkspot]

i win at bizarre titles.

okay, so i'm working on some new stories and this one idea that i have involves mentally ill people representing the seven deadly sins. so instead of just having the person who represents vanity being really vain, she'll have some disorder characterized by severe self-obsession and narcissicm and such. can any of you intelligent people here list any such illnesses/behavioral problems, etc?

 

[MajestikMøøse]

one of the guys should be named Syphilis.

 

[neal]

fat people like to eat!

 

[Chromatose]

so you'll be rewriting that movie that puts all these into physical manifestations ..... Police Academy?

 

[Chromatose]

also, the disorder for Greed is Jewishness

She specifically asked for the "intelligent" people to post!



Sorry broski, I couldn't let that one slip away.

your people all such?!

is that.. "you people all suck"?!?!?

I'm really trying to think of diseases... I mean... There can be a man with an eating disorder for gluttony, but I can't think of any diseases for arrogance, and whatever else there is hmm..

Sloth could be paralysis. Wrath could be rage blackouts or some kind of angry thing.

[Mephistophiliac]

lust=necropedophilia?

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

thats not a disorder, its a hobby.

 

[Mephistophiliac]

alrighty, then what about spermatorrhea for lust

 

[derek]

Hmmm. I like this idea. Things is, the seven deadly sins categorise personality "faults" anyways, so.

 

[dreaming neon darkspot]

i guess like ... diseases, disorders, etc that cause or are characterized by over-eating, nymphomania, narsiccism, violent outbursts and the like. *shrug*

Look up the DSM IV (2000 revision), I think it's online.
