I am concerned that the prime minister has a mild case of Thought disorder (TD) or formal thought disorder (FTD) refers to disorganized thinking as evidenced by disorganized speech.[1] Specific thought disorders include derailment, poverty of speech, tangentiality, illogicality, perseveration, neologism, and thought blocking.[1]
Psychiatrists consider formal thought disorder as being one of two types of disordered thinking, with the other type being delusions. The latter involves "content" while the former involves "form". Although the term "thought disorder" can refer to either type, in common parlance it refers most often to a disorder of thought "form" also known as formal thought disorder.[citation needed]
Eugen Bleuler, who named schizophrenia, held that thought disorder was its defining characteristic.[2] However, formal thought disorder is not unique to schizophrenia or psychosis. It is often a symptom of mania, and less often it can be present in other mental disorders such as depression.[1] Clanging or echolalia may be present in Tourette syndrome.[3] Patients with a clouded consciousness, like that found in delirium, also have a formal thought disorder.[4]
However, there is a clinical difference between these two groups. Those with schizophrenia or psychosis are less likely to demonstrate awareness or concern about the disordered thinking.[5] Clayton and Winokur have suggested that this results from a fundamental inability to use the same type of Aristotelian logic as others.[6] On the other hand, patients with a clouded consciousness, referred to as "organic" patients, usually do demonstrate awareness and concern, and complain about being "confused" or "unable to think straight"; Clayton and Winokur suggest that this is because their thought disorder results, instead, from various cognitive deficits.
The information provided came from Wiki and I believe the prime minister is going to plunge Australia into war.
As you sir are the governor general and have the power to stop this you would also be held responsible for not acting to stop it. I hope you do some thing about it. Concerned Australian Stewart.
