Psychotherapist says 'Trump Derangement Syndrome' is real pathology, plaguing 75 percent of his patients
Manhattan-based psychotherapist Jonathan Alpert told Fox News on Friday that "Trump Derangement Syndrome" (TDS) is a real psychological issue he has seen firsthand in his practice, with three-quarters of his patients exhibiting symptoms.Alpert said patients have come into his office exhibiting symptoms of mental distress stemming from their fear or anger toward President Donald Trump.
"This is a profound pathology, and I would even go so far to call it the defining pathology of our time," Alpert said.
TDS is a term generally used by Trump supporters to disparage what they view as hysterical or irrational critics of the president.
According to one psychotherapist, many Americans are suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome, which he argues is a real pathology.
Alpert described some of the symptoms he’s observed in patients he believes are suffering from TDS.
"It doesn't take long for me to pick up on this: people are obsessed with Trump, they’re fixated, they’re hyper-fixated on Trump. And they talk about some of the features of this disorder — they can’t sleep, they feel traumatized by Mr. Trump, they feel restless," he said.
"I had one patient who said she couldn’t enjoy a vacation because anytime she saw Trump in the news or on her device, she felt triggered," he added.
Alpert explained that for these patients, the mere mention or image of Trump triggers intense mental distress.
"And Trump is the trigger for many of these people, and to be that fixated on a figure, on a person, it’s simply not healthy," he said.....
=====================================================
I have seen the same toxic symptoms in JPP posters. TDS seems to be a real group of symptoms. After 2028 if Vance Will there be VDS. Will these symptoms just be transferred to the next Republican president.
