Does your nation's leader have mental disorders?

Postby Mikanjima » Tue Apr 19, 2016 3:07 am

President Rumiko Saitou (斉藤るみ子) has a lot of mental disorders, ever since she was a teenager in high school. The mental disorders she currently has are:


    -Borderline personality disorder
    -Tourette's Syndrome (even though she doesn't swear that much in formal occasions)
    -Social anxiety disorder
    -Androphobia (especially lighter-skinned, cishet young men)
    -Bipolar I & II disorders
    -Panic disorder
    -Paranoid personality disorder
    -Depression (though she managed to overcome this, apparently, as an adult)
    -Asperger syndrome
    -Narcissistic personality disorder
    -Insomnia
    -Postpartum depression
    -Passive-aggressive personality disorder

No, however her predecessor is widely believed to have suffered from borderline personality disorder among other illnesses, which was a factor in him murdering his wife leading to his impeachment.

That would be odd, since most of our leaders have auto-curing viroblood1, which would automatically repair such disorders from the brain.

1 - Viroblood is blood mainly contained pseudo-RBCs and WBCs that produce body-friendly viruses, akin to nanobots.

None of the recent Presidents of Chadtonia have ever officially been diagnosed with any diagnosable mental illness. However President-in-Hiatus President Albert Greenbuckle was tested for Psychopathic Tendencies at the age of 10, yet the test used in Greenbuckle's was later determined by mental health professionals to be an inaccurate measure for testing psychopaths and the result was considered undetermined. Interestingly, President Albert Greenbuckle was the primary organizer of the assassination of President Clayton Deylanna.

Emperor Karl II, hasn't been diagnosed with anything, and is seemingly neurotypical, despite any idiosyncratic quirks, like any other person, court life presented him as strong and there really has not been any reported problems.
Chancellor Felix Westmark is noted for having had depression when he was younger.

However, there has been much research into the mental health of previous emperors.

Ruling a country of over three billion can be stressful for a Lord High Chancellor or any elected parliamentarian or government employee.

In a novel written by journalist Sandy Leitch and historian Maria Kulmala concluded that mental illness is surely more common in Rien-Stadt, C.D.R. than the public knows or wants to believe.

Often, Gristol-Serkonosean politicians grappled with mild symptoms—powerful mood swings, depression and anxiety—while serving in office, including the 10 Oliver Street. In an article published last year, these afflictions can be made worse by the job. While scientists are still trying to understand the underlying medical causes of most mental illnesses, they are at least partly environmental; high stress can cause completely rational feelings of grief, concern and disappointment to become something more unstable.

Lord High Chancellors and other elected members that served during war-time have a higher chance of having a mental disorders during their term of service. Following the conclusion of the Red Revolution, Lord High Chancellor Alistair Dion suffered privately from bipolar disorders during his time in office. James Cromwell, the first Lord High Chancellor, had clandestinely filled their medical cabinets with psychotropic drugs according to sources uncovered only recently. Victor Ionescu, the first Progressive Conservative Lord High Chancellor, for instance was a subject of his top aides, arguing whether the Lord High Chancellor was clinically paranoid or a manic-depressive, and fretted that there was no constitutional “procedure for dealing with nuts.”

The Imperial Diarchy is also not immune to this issue. Five years before her Coronation, Empress Annika I Felvaron had to suspend her responsibilities due to an eating disorder. Even her co-Diarch, Emperor Lorei IV Esteria suffered from mild depression in his early childhood. To this day, both monarchs are seen in court life as strong, and have not reported any problems since their disorders passed. Research from biographers of past monarchs suggest mental health issues on some of them.

Because of this, a part of the health insurance expenses for elected members of the government or employees of the central government are entitled to mental health treatment. Initially as a pilot project, it was eventually expanded to the nationwide Imperial Health Plan and was made mandatory for all private insurance companies in 2006.

To whomever it may concern,

I write to respond to a most unusual request that has been made of the Rose Throne's office; specifically, an enquiry into the state of the mental health of Her Graceful Highness, Queen of the Roses, Juliana I.

It is with little regret that I answer on her behalf - the medical records of Her Graceful Highness are confidential, as they are for any other citizen of this great City-State. They are not open for public or international debate or scrutiny, and they never shall be. Such would be a most heinous betrayal not just of Her Graceful Highness, but of all citizens who should be assured that their medical records are kept in the strictest confidence.

The notion that we might publish such records is, frankly, absurd. I can say that in the event that Her Graceful Highness proves unfit to govern, either because of her mental health or any other reason, she adores her people to such an extent that she would gladly step down from the Rose Throne to allow more competent leaders to guide this country. Let us pray that this does not happen, for she is a most effective and caring sovereign.

Those of you wantonly publishing such confidential information about your own leaders clearly lack a leader worthy of your respect and love.

Most sincerely,

Arch-Regent Sir Benjamin of Amaranth,
Loyal Executor of the Will of the Rose Throne

We are fairly certian that if our leader would show any signs of being incapable of leading, such as mental illness, they would be quickly "removed". Please don't let our leader know this though...
When one becomes unfit to lead they are expected to pass on the title to what is typically the next generation. They are still allowed, and often encouraged, to act in an advisory role if they are still mentally fit but either lose their desire to lead or find themselves unfit to lead for various reasons.


Noting that this is for disorders that fall outside of "normal" personality traits.

Postby TURTLESHROOM II » Thu Apr 21, 2016 10:29 am

The current leader of TurtleShroom, who seized power by a military coup d'etat, is General Bubba Long II. He is a turtle, and as such, his brain functions dramatically different than a human. The brains of sentient turtles are vastly smaller than a human brain, and thus most of its precious space is used on higher functions, while bodily reactions are confined to the brain stem and its immediate vicinity.

In TS vetrinary medicine, a sentient turtle's exhbition of the symptoms of human mental diseases are dismissed as personality traits (nurture) over innate diseases (nature). A smaller, simpler brain makes turtles less vulnerable to mental disease in comparison to a human's vast, complex brain.

In short, General Long II does not have any mental condition.






However, the chairman and ruler of the City of Litlin and its neighboring towns, Cephas Block, is diagnosed with mild Schizophrenic-Paranoia, moderate Psychosis, Bipolar Disease, and severe Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder. He is also suspected to possess Azula's Syndrome (also called "AVATARD Disease").

The reason he is still in office is because he is a brilliant and charasmatic administrator whose use of force and authoritarianism has made Litlin and surrounding towns the safest places in TurtleShroom. Unlike most of the country, there are no riots, protests, or armed uprisings currently occuring under his jurisdiction. His brilliance outweighs his instability.






No further details, such as medications and therapies (etc.) used to combat any possible disorders, other than the formal note of the diagnosis, will be disclosed here, due to respect for privacy of those involved.

There's a little adage that adequately describes urban life in China.

都市生活壓力大,有點不正常也很正常,完全正常反而不正常。

Due to great pressure originating in urban life, it is quite normal to be slightly abnormal; it is, in fact, abnormal to be completely normal.
