Toriel: Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

My name is Jada or JadaE, I’m female, pronouns are she/her.

I am not diagnosed with any mental illness/condition (I use these words interchangeably) even though I could as I identify strongly with some of these conditions. I mostly haven’t for personal reasons... Please please be careful in self-diagnosing. It’s quite dangerous to do. If you think you might have something, please talk to a doctor.

Enough about me.

Neurosistale was made to show people what certain illnesses actually are. I try not to use any stereotypes. The characters are quite vague in their personalities, symptoms, etc, which is used only to allow people to identify with the characters. Everyone has different symptoms so I try to keep it vague.

I've gone through so many versions and so many plans, story plots, character designs, and a whole bunch more and... I decided not to make a story for Neurosistale. However, the characters are always open for asks unless stated otherwise on their ref.

I guess the Neurosistale characters are going to be more of a support group than an AU. Feel free to talk to them and avoid anything too dark, because these will be shared with me and all of Tumblr.

And let's be honest here, I'm not a therapist. I haven't gone to school studying this stuff (other than PSY 1010). I'm going off the internet, books, YouTubers, and my own personal experiences. I'm only here wanting to help people.

There is, my own version of each of the characters in which they have actual personalities, symptoms, and detail. They also would have more specific subcategories of their illness (which may or may not make sense). I may refer to this version as Specified!Neurosistale

(Read below for links, schedules, and more info)

Characters' Stories (Specified!Neurosistale):

Neurosistale (Quotev)

Neurosistale (Wattpad)

For The Female Multiverse (FM)... The Authors' Note is the best explanation for it, just read that.

The Female Multiverse

This is something that I helped Taffy with, the FM belongs to Taffy (@mimi-ikfrea). She had the idea, I helped her with forming it into a story. This AU is not mine but I will answer most Asks about it.

Times are based on Mountain Standard/Daylight Time.

If I post anything, it'll be at 7:30am or 7:30pm

One last thing. I don't plan to post much that's not Neurosistale or The Female Multiverse. I'll have seven main tags, I'll put them below. Also, a note, SNT stands for Specified!Neurosistale.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

Stereotypes:

It has to be clean

~

Real:

Not everyone with OCD is a “clean freak”. While it’s true that some people obsess with it having to be clean, it’s possible to just like things clean without having OCD. It becomes OCD when it’s very repetitive and disrupts normal life.

A common obsession is washing and rewashing hands, or checking locks/switches multiple times in a room. Many, if not most, people with OCD know/believe their obsessions are really not something they should worry about a lot, but they have little control of it.

Not following through with their obsession can cause very deep panic and trouble.

It's Undertale's 6th Anniversary and I'm posting this now because I forgot to post it this morning.

So here's Chara and Neurosis!Chara♥️

Undyne/Montee (ASPD, Psychopathy)

Antisocial Personality Disorder and Psychopathy

Stereotypes:

Psychopaths are emotionless

Psychopaths don’t care about anyone but themselves

The Hollywood psychopath

All murders are psychopaths

~

Real:

Psychopath is not an psychiatric term, nor is it a psychiatric diagnosis. It may or may not be a sub diagnosis for ASPD (more commonly known as Sociopathy), but that's still up for debate. I personally believe they are different, yet closely correlated.

Those with ASPD are not emotionless. They just don’t feel emotions as strong. However, most don’t see to feel fear. This often causes them to create a “mask” to fit in with society.

I don't have anything educational to correct this. This one is more belief than anything else.

Psychopaths shown in movies are VERY wrong. They aren’t insane. Most of them act like normal people.

Not all psychopaths are killers (very few actually are), and not all killers are psychopaths. You can have regular people be serial killers (bet that’s comforting to think about).

Well, dang it. I draw Doomverse!Killer once and now I'm completely obsessed with his design.

Wrath: "I don't know how Nightmare ever delt with you."

Killer: "Lol."

~~

I dunno if Killer is still a brat after being infected, but it seems like a core piece of his personality.

I'll probably get killed for posting this but I'm going to anyway.
