but you have no personality of your own...then what happens if you end up working with someone with severe mental problems and you become that person but..you cant get out of this personality?

there's a book with that in it called "dead girls dont write letters"\n\nbut that is just a book for entertainment. i think you should probably see a doctor if that's actually happening to you. it isnt really healthy to adopt other people's personalities. invest in being your own person.

I am sure that they will "be funny" again.  Your personality sticks...the depression might alter it a little but they will spring back to normal.  Support them, be there for them.  If this person you are talking about is you, confide in a friend.  It's okay to cry and be depressed for a while.  It might be almost embarrassing to let that vulnerable side show since you/they were always the "funny and happy" one.  Trust me, you will seem even more real and likable when people see your human and have bad days...even if these days last for awhile.  Also, no one is too good to seek professional advice.  I'm not saying run out there and get put on medication, but you might need an extra boost to get back and going..whether it's just medical advice or whatever.  Good Luck.

That is because you are able to see the underlying issue with other people's problems. Their flaws or personality quirks that may cause them trouble are clear to you, but not to them. Just as your own flaws and quirks are invisible to you. You are too close to your own problem to objectively seek an answer. Lots of insightful people have this problem. Try taking some steps back next time, and see the problem from an outside perspective.

I guess it depends upon how sociable the person is and how strong minded and for how long. For an account you could read an Evil cradling by Brian Keenan.\n\nI have a little personal experience of this and was not pschologically stabel and lost a lot of sense of self

You can't "get rid" of a mental disorder.  You can maintain it with appropriate medications but it will never just go away, sorry to say.

one cannot seperate oneself from oneself.  The moment you did it would cease to be the self.

Anybody can become psychotic under the right circumstances, whether it is stress, drugs, brainwashing, or upbringing.  Some have better control than others.  There are probably as many answers as there are psychotic people.  And.....some people are just mean (mean people suck)!

by the time you're a psychiatrist you might have worked all your kinks out.  You'll have this great brain full of nice brainy ideas and everything...everything will make more sense than your willing to understand.  So while your issues such as depression will be understood by you, you'll still have depression.

Only if you fake being happy, follow orders and never do what you want, I don't think we can get on with everyone cause we all have different personalities and that is what makes us special and interesting, i know the feeling i use to be friends with a girl i meet through work but her constant put downs toward others and bossy personality was just to much for me so i stayed away as i knew if i didn't i wouldn't be happy i really think it's normal to find people you don't get along with i mean how fun would that be if we all got along, we would have no one to gossip and bi**h about........lol

You have an anti social personality and are likely to develop into extremely violent tendencies. You should talk to a psychiatrist about this.

This, of course, is one of those nasty things you think about but never do. It really depends on the person. Generally, whatever would humiliate them the most or cause their reputation to change for the worse.

They could put you in a mental institution!!!!

When you notice that you are changing yourself to accomodate that other person, then it's gone too far.  I was once in an abusive relationship that I changed myself for, stopped talking to my friends and family and was completely miserable.  Someone who loves you will not try to change who you are.

.this is a serious problem , you address the problem, then  you  use another negative to try to rationalize it. you know in your heart this person better than all of us. there is a pattern with a  person  with a  addictive personality disorder. and there is a 70% chance it will happen again. if he cares for you and himself!he would  be wise to seek help and treatment for it. it is a up hill battle .remember he made the problem, not you.
