Something that might be a little more feasible, should we choose to do something like that, would be BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder). It's kinda on the cusp of personality disorders without being totally crippling most of the time.
Essentially, this person has a very low self-image and is highly suspicious of others motives all the time. Depending on their mood, they can think someone the greatest person on the planet, but other times they are truly the worst thing they have ever encountered, and each situation is met as though this were always true instead of acknowledging that they are swinging back and forth. They tend toward very black and white ways of thinking, and it is nigh-impossible for someone with BDP to fight off their own emotions, particularly anger. However, in stable environments with stable people, the effects of BPD can be significantly mitigated, but can pop up at pretty much any time if a wrench is thrown into the system. Trust is very important but very hard to obtain.`
IMO even this might be a little extreme for the 15th Man, but I figured I should lay it out there anyway, since we are talking disorders.
wikipdeia Wrote:Borderline personality disorder (BPD) (called emotionally unstable personality disorder, borderline type in the ICD-10) is a cluster-B personality disorder whose essential features are a pattern of marked impulsivity and instability of affects, interpersonal relationships, and self image. The pattern is present by early adulthood and occurs across a variety of situations and contexts.[1] Other symptoms may include intense fears of abandonment and intense anger and irritability that others have difficulty understanding the reason for.[1][2] People with BPD often engage in idealization and devaluation of others, alternating between high positive regard and great disappointment.[3] Self-mutilation and suicidal behavior are common.[4]
