I can somehow understand if a person for some reason likes to pretend she 또는 he has that condition, and of course that would mean there's something else seriously wrong with the person.

But why do other people agree to waste money and time on documenting such hoax cases, as in to take part in them?

Of course, I acknowledge I can not know if any of those documentaries I've seen are hoaxes 또는 genuine. It's just that the documentaries include such facts that makes the cases 더 많이 또는 less likely hoaxes, so I can not view and speak of them only with my 심장 but with common sense.

Let me point out couple...

No one talks about suicide -- especially in the medical community. When Carla Fine's husband, a prominent New York physician, killed himself, his colleagues reacted to his unexpected death with extreme discomfort and collective silence regarding the circumstances.[1] Her initial reaction was to cover up her husband's death in order to "protect" his medical reputation and preserve his legacy as a healer and fixer, and this placed a huge burden on her emotional state.

Ms. Fine's husband, who was in private practice and on the staff of several hospitals, used his medical expertise to prescribe...

We all heard the terms "psychopath" 또는 "sociopath". These are the old names for a patient with the Antisocial Personality Disorder (AsPD). It is hard to distinguish narcissists from psychopaths. The latter may simply be a less inhibited and less grandiose form of the former. Indeed, the DSM V Committee is considering to abolish this distinction altogether.
Still, there are some important nuances setting the two disorders apart:

As opposed to most narcissists, psychopaths are either unable 또는 unwilling to control their impulses 또는 to delay gratification. They use their rage to control people...

A Little Story
About
The Sense of Belonging


Because I live in the country, I have to drive along a few backroads before I reach the highway that takes me to work. These tranquil roads are often a little slow. One beautiful summer morning, I find myself behind a man on a tractor. Every twenty 또는 thirty meters, he stops to chat with someone. I cannot overtake him on such a narrow, winding road. The conversations only take a few 초 – the time to say hello and exchange news – but they are enough to make me nervous. I don’t know what he could be talking about with the people he meets at...

There is one place in which one's privacy, intimacy, integrity and inviolability are guaranteed – one's body, a unique temple and a familiar territory of sensa and personal history. The torturer invades, defiles and desecrates this shrine. He does so publicly, deliberately, repeatedly and, often, sadistically and sexually, with undisguised pleasure. Hence the all-pervasive, long-lasting, and, frequently, irreversible effects and outcomes of torture.

In a way, the torture victim's own body is rendered his worse enemy. It is corporeal agony that compels the sufferer to mutate, his identity to...

The small Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan takes seriously their country’s “gross national happiness,” which they deem as important as the gross domestic product, a standard economic indicator. Public policy, the king declared, should be linked to people’s sense of well-being, not just to economics. To be sure, the pillars of national happiness in Bhutan include financial self-reliance, a pristine environment, health care, education preserving local culture, and democracy. But economic growth in itself is just part of the equation.

The gross national happiness is not just for Bhutan: the...

I. The Three Intuitions

IA. Eidetic Intuitions

Intuition is supposed to be a form of direct access. Yet, direct access to what? Does it access directly "intuitions" (abstract objects, akin to numbers 또는 properties - see "Bestowed Existence")? Are intuitions the objects of the mental act of Intuition? Perhaps intuition is the mind's way of interacting directly with Platonic ideals 또는 Phenomenological "essences"? 의해 "directly" I mean without the intellectual mediation of a manipulated symbol system, and without the benefits of inference, observation, experience, 또는 reason.

Kant thought that both...

Conversational Hypnosis is a type of hypnosis where it is very important to access certain states of mind in order to set triggers to change lives for the better. In order to do this 당신 must learn and know how to access those states to start the trigger process with a clean and pure state of mind.

Access State Principal plays a huge role in this process. This is because the clarity of the state of mind a person is in when the trigger is set will determine how well the trigger is going to work, if at all. When people access emotions they are really going back through their files of memories...

There are a few good ways described here, but try to 확인 the truth 의해 other means as well, such as confession 또는 investigation of the facts.

You should compare behavior in the person under suspicion to their "base" behavior, if possible. In other words, if they always have shifty eyes, then this trait can't be considered as an indication of lying. On the other hand, if they are normally very calm under pressure, but start...

Daniel J. Levitin, 2006, 320 pages

Why human beings make and enjoy 음악 is, in Levitin’s telling, a delicious story. In this unprecedented meeting of art and science, rocker-turned-neuroscientist Daniel J. Levitin explores the connection between 음악 – its performances, its composition, how we listen to it, why we enjoy it – and the human brain.

Taking on prominent thinkers who argue that 음악 is nothing 더 많이 than an evolutionary accident, Levitin argues that 음악 is fundamental to our species, perhaps even 더 많이 so than language. ‘This Is Your Brain On Music’ is an ear-opening,...
