pseudohallucination

"A pseudohallucination is an involuntary sensory experience that is vivid enough to be regarded as a hallucination, but which is recognized by the person experiencing it as being subjective and unreal. By contrast, a “true” hallucination is perceived as entirely real by the person experiencing it " (Pseudohallucination - Wikipedia)

"The term is not widely used in the psychiatric and medical fields, as it is considered ambiguous;^[5] the term nonpsychotic hallucination is preferred.^[6] Pseudohallucinations are more likely to happen with a hallucinogenic drug. But "the current understanding of pseudohallucinations is mostly based on the work of Karl Jaspers".^[7]

"A further distinction is made between pseudohallucinations and parahallucinations, the latter being a result of damage to the peripheral nervous system.^[8]

"They are considered a possible symptom of conversion disorder in DSM-IV (2000).^[9] In DSM-5 (2013), this definition has been removed.^[2] Also, pseudohallucinations can occur in people with visual/hearing loss, referred to as Charles Bonnet syndrome.^{[citation needed][10]}

psychopath vs sociopath

 (20+) Dark psychology and manipulation. | Facebook

Psychopaths and sociopaths are both characterized by a lack of empathy and conscience, but there are some key differences between the two. Psychopaths are typically born with their condition, while sociopaths are believed to be more influenced by their environment. Psychopaths are also more likely to be manipulative and deceitful, while sociopaths may be more impulsive and aggressive.

=================================================================

Fr: Barb Chiqovani

The main differences I’d say are:

1. Sociopaths are more influenced by their emotions than psychopaths are, psychopaths might not even experience emotions at times.

2. Psychopaths are more likely to be sadistic and commit serious crimes than sociopaths.

3. Sociopaths can love pets and people outside of their family, while psychopaths can’t. Psychopaths typically don’t even view their wife or husband as family.

4. Sociopaths are more impulsive than psychopaths, but also more cautious than psychopaths.

5. Psychopaths are more paranoid and suspicious of the environment around - they also display far more social awareness than sociopaths.

Both of them are extremely unlikely to think that they need help or that they have a problem… Sociopaths and psychopaths don’t usually seek therapy.

mania vs hypomania

 Mania - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf (nih.gov)

Dailey & Saadabai, 2023 (National Institute of Health)

"Mania is a period of 1 week or more in which a person experiences a change in normal behavior that drastically affects their functioning. Mania can be distinguished from hypomania in that hypomania does not cause a major deficit in social or occupational functioning, and involves a period of at least 4 days rather than at least 1 week. The defining characteristics of mania include increased talkativeness, rapid speech, a decreased need for sleep, racing thoughts, distractibility, increase in goal-directed activity, and psychomotor agitation. Some other hallmarks of mania are an elevated or expansive mood, mood lability, impulsivity, irritability, and grandiosity."
