Schizotypal v. Narcissistic

Schizotypal Notes

(S) Fragmented Morphologic Organization (e.g., possesses permeable ego-boundaries; coping and defensive operations are haphazardly ordered in a loose assemblage of morphologic structures, leading to desultory actions in which primitive thoughts and affects are discharged directly, with few reality-based sublimations, and significant further disintegrations into a psychotic structural level, likely under even modest stress).

This is not what happens in detail. Incoming information is adsorbed and falls into a category of misplaced objects until a decision is made where to file them in the manifesto or discharge them.

Narcissistic

(S) Spurious Morphologic Organization (e.g., morphologic structures underlying coping and defensive strategies tend to be flimsy and transparent, appear more substantial and dynamically orchestrated than they are in fact, regulating impulses only marginally, channeling needs with minimal restraint, and creating an inner world in which conflicts are dismissed, failures are quickly redeemed, and self-pride is effortlessly reasserted).

Incoming information is absorbed directly into the manifesto without a proper filing system.
