A new psychiatric condition has been observed by psychiatrists working at the Brandt-Sievers Institute for Eugenics. The condition, Disorder Fabrication Syndrome, is a kind of paranoid delusional disorder where the sufferer believes in their own infallibility and superiority and is often associated with comorbid narcissistic personality disorder. The sufferer will incessantly classify all manner of normal human behaviour as a disorder or syndrome.
The disorder is thought to be caused by a chemical imbalance brought on by studying psychology and psychiatry at an institute funded by big pharma. The constant handling of money doled out by the drug companies seems to affect the way the psychologists and psychiatrists process neurotransmitters. Another theory is that this might be a kind of hysteria induced by chronic avarice.
The most effective treatment for this group of patients is to strike them off any professional registers which makes their craving for pharmaceutical company money remit. In extreme cases, prosecuting them for research fraud is another alternative. This sometimes controversial method has just been applied with great success at the University of Vermont.
It is believed that the condition is underdiagnosed in psychiatrists and clinical psychologists and that a screening programme ought to be introduced in this high risk population.
