l*****x 发帖数: 5 | 1 One friend has the following symptoms: laugh(without reason), yawn,
phonate(like the ones when getting up in the morning), sensitive to sound,
when you talk to him,you have to repeat several times before he understands.
Sometimes hard to fall asleep.
One doctor from a big hospital in Nanjing diagnosed it as obsessive, and gave
him Luvox. It has been two months, however he is not getting any better.
I wonder if it is really obsessive, if not, what it may be?
thanks a lot, | l*****t 发帖数: 2019 | 2 这个真是叫强迫症么?

| a******t 发帖数: 23 | 3 I do not think this is OCD at all, according to DSM. It belongs to some one
in the clinical discorders. I have weak memory of this kind of symptoms.
I'll check for you later.

| t****e 发帖数: 527 | 4 Your description of symptoms does not justify a diagnosis of OCD. Does he has
any obsession or compulsion? The definitions of obsession and compulsion by
the DSM-IV are:
Obsessions as defined by (1), (2), (3), and (4):
(1) recurrent and persistent thoughts, impulses, or images that are experienced,
at some time during the disturbance, as intrusive and inappropriate and that
cause marked anxiety or distress
(2) the thoughts, impulses, or images are not simply excessive worries about
real-life pro

Actually I don't think he is obsessive too just from the intuition. However my
knowledge in psychology is poor, that is why I am here.
The personal has a history of unhappiness from work for not a short time. It
started from having difficulty in falling asleep. And the person would be in
very bad mood if he didn't sleep well the night before. Then the doctor gave
him some medicines to help sleep(I don't remember the name). After some time,
he began to laugh (quite

According to DSM, one suffers from schizophrenia must have at least 2 of
following symptoms:
Delusion or hallucination, which means destortions of thought and perception.
Disorganized behavior;
Negative symptoms, such as lack of reations to enviorment or basic drives.
Many medical drugs change effections of dopamine or MAO. I don't know about
Luvox. But you should be very careful about drugs' side-effect and long term
impair.
Let him go to

| t****e 发帖数: 527 | 7 It doesn't sound like schizophrenia to me either. He does not have any
delusion and hallucination, like hearing voices other people can't hear, or
see things other people can't see. Cognitive ability seemed normal. What
crazy things did he say? under what circumstance? Is language organized?
Your descriptions justify my suspicion of a mood disorder, more like a
dysthymia, which is a long term (if >12 months) mild depression. Unhappiness,
sleeping problems, lost of concentration, irratability
