Which disorder do you think bbc's sherlock posseses?

13 Comments

This has had a lot of debate amongst fans of the show and I want to see which is the most likely. Keep in mind the schizoid personality disorder is not schizophrenia.

If you want to study these disorders more thoroughly before answering, (and I hope you do) look at these links:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asperger_syndrome

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychopathy

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizoid_personality_disorder

My personal vote is for SPD. What do you think?

Schizoid Personality Disorder 10
Sociopathy 18

    He's a highly functioning sociopath.

      Only an idiot would assume what's told is the truth without researching it himself.

          Doesn't make everything told there true.

        Why do you believe he has a mental illness? I thought he was suppose to be a genius detective that helps solve crime? Is being intelligent a crime now?

          No, it isn't. Neither is having a mental illness. You obviously haven't watched the adaptation I'm referring to. Speaking of which, the Sherlock Holmes from the books is said to have Asperger's syndrome.

        You said "himself". Have you researched whether DannyKanes is male or not? Unless you have incontrovertible medical evidence, you're making an assumption.

        And you know what you think about people who assume what's told is the truth. It's only fair if you now publicly call yourself an idiot too.

          His name is Danny. Danny is man's name. The picture on his profile is a picture of a man. And finally, his description says "I'm a very open guy".

          And on the point of saying "himself", I was talking about idiots in general. I didn't specify, mr DannyKanes.

            Is that your research?
