Just briefly glancing through here it seems like anywhere from 15-25% could be diagnosed as morbidly paranoid, with 5% of that as full bore schizophrenia. There's also a great deal of mania in this forum, with the other subforums exhibiting mania/depression or both depending on the subject. It's difficult to parse through a forum but it just seems like an unusually large number of posters here are suffering from some combination of narcissistic/victim personality disorder, either resulting from social isolation, autism spectrum diseases, substance abuse (perhaps bitcoin's primary use) or PTSD. Has anyone elucidated the link between bitcoin and mental illness? How many people here got involved in bitcoin because you couldn't function in the normal economy, or in society at large? I'm seriously asking because the idea of a currency that specifically draws the unstable members of society is fascinating from a social psychology perspective. There are certainly a very high number of sociopaths leading the bitcoin community (which explains the continuous scams and thefts of the beta member resources). Anyway if there are any normal members here you might want to commission a social worker to survey this forum for potential suicide/homicide risks or a psych researcher to try to and determine what factors of the bitcoin system are selecting for dredges. Cheers! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

I am worried about the drug use, but more drugs are bought with fiat then ever will with Bitcoin. Traces of drugs are even on US dollars as well as most likely most fiat currencies. So it seems to say fiat is used more for drugs then Bitcoin. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2009/aug/17/cocaine-dollar-bills-currency-us

I'm glad at least some of the trolls are still putting a good effort into making well written, entertaining posts. I like the way this one goes right for the self esteem! Very acidic. Cheers! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

You come to this forum, dedicated to Bitcoin and then piss on other people, for them expressing their opinions and views on the subject matter. We do not need to hide behind a newbie account....we say what we think, and we stick to it. Climb back on your horse, and go back to the cave you crawled out of.... leave us, to make the important decisions about the future of money. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) How did you like that...? Let's see if you can psycho analyze that dribble.

Believing in something doesn't make them ill, but those who are yelling Bitcoin is going to $10,000 everyday are mentally ill.

Cheers! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) My left brain (responsible for over 62% of my daily interactions) tells me I'm the most stable, drug abusing buttcoin hodler that he's ever met! My right brain (responsible for just 18% of my bodily functions) tells me bad things which I won't repeat on here. There are multi-dimensional lizards monitoring this forum so I must type quickly whilst wearing my level 9 gamma cloak. (I refer to this fact as my 20% brain conspiracy contingency or B.C.C 2.0) I hope this answers your question.

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

I think if you're at all capable of grasping bitcoin, the whole concept, in the first place, there's little damn chance you're at risk of being mentally ill. The required level of intelligence to understand bitcoin, the foundation of bitcoin, the blockchain, the point, the nuances of economics, and the dynamics of bitcoin is not a sign of a weak mind susceptible to mental illness. The idiots in comment sections who continually call people names, troll these and similar forums hollering bitcoin's end times and have nothing else to do but post over and over day in and day out trying to warn everyone against it, it's in its "death throws" as one put it in a comments section earlier - now those ones are soft in the head and could probably make do with a visit to a psychiatrist. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

It is interesting how someone could be judged as insane from their association with Bitcoin. We are so lucky to has a physiologist here on this form to point this out. I would like to know, why are you here on this form?

That's one of the most stupid posts I've ever read here, I don't know whether I should be responding to it seriously or not, probably better if I didn't take it seriously.

We are all insane here. And you are one of us, you can't deny that!! That's one of the most stupid posts I've ever read here, I don't know whether I should be responding to it seriously or not, probably better if I didn't take it seriously.
Not the most stupid, that's for sure. To be take seriously? Really? It's one of the good, entertaining posts of the day! Thanks OP. You made me laugh. Your post is much better than all this "Bitcoin is dead"-posts.
Yup, it made me smile too. And I will check this thread from time to time. I expect beautiful answers ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)
