Psychology question?

[crystalline0909]

She gets up, eats and then shuts herself in her room in the dark and binge watches the same comedy show over n over again all day and night, regularly. It's been a year now. First 3-5 months she regularly ate momos...20 momos a day. Next 8 months she eats 5-9 chocolate bars a day... constantly. She'll melt it and eat it while binge watching the same show.
She does nothing other than that. She is completely isolated and has shut out her family. She has no form of interaction with anyone at all. She has no friends. She stays in her room locked inside all day and night and always keeps the drapes shut and no light. She literally talks to no second person at all.
What is up with her?

[IslaTheWitch]

the age? Physic condition? Known medical history? Any fresh or known from the history traumatic events?

[IslaTheWitch]

Using Ockham razor as a base for guessing - all behaviors of this person are directed to bring comfort. Dark room reduces stimuli and blocks observation of passing time. Eating of the same things brings predictability, the same as watching the same show. It engages mind in predictable environment.

Reason? Again without additional data it's a guessing fest. Probably fresh or old traumatic event that memory was triggered. Emotions are so overwhelming that this person runs away, isolates themselves and creates safe environment.

But again... it's just a guess fest...

[crystalline0909]

You have been absorbed right based on limited information you have

[RavVid]

I have seen this. She is a deeply unhappy person and what she binge watches engages her enough to stop unhappy thoughts. Food also does the same. I the case I am thinking off it was alcohol.

[crystalline0909]

Alcohol ain't included

[RavVid]

Thank god for there isn't self medication. But I think the binge watching is avoiding painful thoughts most likely.

[Kaneki05]

It's just what us depressed people do. My food is Pizza though and I watch multiple things. Would join her.

[crystalline0909]

She doesn't watch multiple things. That would have been normal

[Kaneki05]

It's more normal to watch the same show if depressed it's a comfort show. Much like how I've watched Bojack so many times.

[Sameone]

First, you must tell us why she are doing this. Is it because of trauma or an accident?

If there is no condition, this means that she has psychological tension

[crystalline0909]

I don't know why I asked. Psychological tension?

[Sameone]

Psychological stress is the last stage before mental illness.

[sawno]

Sounds like she is trying to sedate her depression, doing whats comfortable but not what works.

[FunkyMonkee]

What's a momo?
Sounds to me like she needs to see a shrink.

[crystalline0909]

Chicken dumplings

[Alex8736]

It's called insanity by doing the same thing over and over expecting different results

[crystalline0909]

She is not expecting anything.

[NathanDavis]

she has enablers around...

[crystalline0909]

Why is she shutting everyone out and isolating herself. Why constantly live in the dark and keep watching and eating the same thing. Enablers should allow her to enjoy everything which means different things to watch and different items to eat.

[NathanDavis]

she needs professional help and true care

[crystalline0909]

What's the problem... specifically

[NathanDavis]

could be some sort of eating disorder, social anxieties, depression, PTSD... who knows really

this is why she needs professional help, asap

and the enablers need counseling as well

[crystalline0909]

First not an enabler.
Second I'm professional and this is an extraordinary case

[NathanDavis]

does she live in your basement

[bowenw]

Could it be depression?

[crystalline0909]

Okay? What else

[bowenw]

I'm not an expert. I suggest she sees her doctor.

[DJB72]

Sounds like depression. Severe depression.

[jahaims]

Depression/mental illness

[crystalline0909]

Which mental illness

[shortster]

OCD mixed with agoraphobia?

[crystalline0909]

She is a very bold girl. She is not afraid of being in a crowd. She will ruthlessly keep her opinion in front of everyone loud and clear. She doesn't feel the need to please anyone or what someone thinks.

[shortster]

You can be bold and have agoraphobia.

[crystalline0909]

No you cannot. Agroaphobians can't even get out in public or handle a spotlight forget talking

[shortster]

You wouldn't think it, but they can. My sister has agoraphobia and is rather brash when in public. Not every phobia is completely crippling; some people have the courage to face their fears in order to get things done.

[crystalline0909]

That would be trying to remedy the problem. This girl is not and no she doesn't have agroaphobia.

[crystalline0909]

70 percent people have little anxiety speaking up in public but she doesn't at all... She has led groups in the past. Therefore your sister doesn't have agroaphobia. If she is showing the courage to remedy it perhaps that's just anxiety.

[shortster]

She has been diagnosed with agoraphobia by a therapist

[crystalline0909]

I'm MD in psychology

[shortster]

Then why did you ask the question when you should know exactly what is wrong with her? A bunch of random people on the Internet are less capable of diagnosing her issues than a medical profession with direct access.

[crystalline0909]

I'm looking for the professional out the bunch of people, no one's personal experience. You don't belong one out of the bunch. We discuss the cases that are left unresolved for years, I take the cases no one can take or resolve

[Anonymous]

How can she afford for these foods without a job?

[crystalline0909]

Dad's rich. But she doesn't spend on anything else other than chocolate. Like no make up, no other food items, no cloth just chocolate

[riverrat3]

Is she afraid of people

[crystalline0909]

No. She is pretty bold n blunt

[exitseven]

It;s not you, is it?

[crystalline0909]

No. It's a file in clinic

[exitseven]

It sounds like she is crazy

[crystalline0909]

Obviously that's why it's in a file. I need a clinical explanation as to why she is crazy.

[exitseven]

If she had some kind of trauma thst could be why she has withdrawn.
