LAST EDITED ON 08-27-05 AT 09:05 AM (EST)Thanks Blondegal, that sounds about right. That really does seem to nail Ivette. Personality Disorder. I think, most assuredly, that Ivette has a personality disorder. Either that or she's just Crazy!! (no offense to our resident crazies).
I think that this setting is actually a pretty good one for making a diagnosis. It's a controlled environment, pretty much the same for all the HGs, so It's like a lab experiment with controls. If Ivette exhibits traits that seem to be indicative of anything (and your personality disorder observation looks very good), and the others don't, then, well, that should make a resulting diagnosis more accurate.
Unless of course, she's just a nut. (Psyche 000.01, that's about first grade, right?)
The narcisstic guess for Cappy was seems pretty good too!. Howabout April?
And (back to Ivette), if this an accurate diagnosis for Ivette, how might she be expected to react when she gets out of house and sequester, and finds out what America feels toward her. Is a train wreck in her future when she has to face the clash between what the real world thinks of her and the self image she has built up over the last few weeks?
Think she'll sue BB for their editing, or the other houseguests, like maybe rachael for making faces?
