Resuming cross.
Still talking about attachment theory. Secure, avoidant, anxious, disorganised. Is drawing a parallel to borderline. Are they setting up to blame LS's mother for Gannon's death here??
Tollini is talking about the hours and hours of phone calls. Witness: "I did listen to some pretext phone calls but I don't recall them being hours." Tollini: "You're lucky." Laughter. Oh wow, dude, you are the DEFENSE.
Is he trying to say you can be a 'little bit bipolar'? Okay, he's trying to talk about different mental illnesses affecting people differently I think. She says it's not relevant to her role in assessing competency.
He's talking about developments published in peer-reviewed journals."That would be relied upon by people in your field?" "It would be considered."
Talking about psychosis. Deliusions are fixed belief. Grandiose, paranoid, etc. Halluciantions. Auditory, visual, tactile. "You don't want to cover the rest of the hallucinations?" Laughter. He asks for them. "Taste and smell." Disorganised thinking. Tangential thinking all the way to word salad. Abnormal motor behaviour. Shaking, picking, pulling, not moving. Negative symptoms, now. Underactive motor, flat affect, lack of emotions, etc.
Bipolar disorder with psychotic features, major depressive disorder with psychotic features, schizophrenia are the common ones.
Talking now about PTSD with psychotic features, and borderline with transient psychotic features.
