The question comes up regularly according to the speeches or tweets of the President of the United States: does Donald Trump suffer from a mental disorder or does he have a strategy of rupture?
Almost a year and a half after being elected President of the United States, Donald Trump’s sanity remains in question.
A collective of American psychiatrists is worried and even speaks of a personality disorder.
Donald Trump a narcissist?
After the release of the book “Fire and fury” at the beginning of the year in which the president is described as a “child with attention disorders”, it is a collective of psychiatrist, the “Duty to warn” who announces a diagnosis of “evil narcissist”.
Psychiatrists emphasize the impulsiveness, recklessness, paranoia, lack of empathy and importance he gives to the consequences of his actions. Donald Trump’s excess of rage and his need for domination can actually compensate for inner signs of weakness and a lack of self-confidence.
Can we really do a remote diagnosis?
Diagnosing a public figure without having really spoken to him within the framework of a psychiatric examination does not allow to certify his mental state.
Even if his behavior is worrying, we must not forget the difference between the image Donald Trump wants to send to the world and what really constitutes his personality.
Is there a psychiatric follow-up of the President of the United States?
This is not the first time that the mental state of the President of the United States questions. Whether it’s Reagan’s dementia or Clinton’s sex addiction, many American psychiatrists have wondered about a potential psychiatric disorder in their president.
Even if Donald Trump must have regular medical visits, it is only a physical exam on his weight, blood pressure or cholesterol level. No psychiatric examination has been carried out so far, thus fueling all speculation.
