Hi Everyone and Malachite --

I always feel a bit wary when people start using clinical terms in ways that (at least to me) imply a negative evaluation of another person -- she's so narcissistic, you're schizo, I'm paranoid, my boss is a sociopath, and so forth.

For me, this can be a way of blaming another person, instead of looking at myself. OTOH, maybe I spend too much time doing that, since my two most recent posts have been about my defects.
