Debiosis

Debiosis, also known as "Debiotic Regime Disorder" is a neurodevelopmental disorder and a form of Global Developmental Disorder characterized by disturbances in communication and behavior, like Autistics, people with Debiosis often display atypical personality and interests. It is believed to arise from a poor organization of relationships between the "ego" and reality.

Relationships
Relationships in Debiosis tend to be complicated, those who have Debiotic tendencies have difficulties understanding and identifying friendships, they will mostly see it as a mere sharing of information rather than a meaningful connection with the other.

There is either an extreme reluctance to accept comfort from caregivers (autistic retreat) such as those who are attached to objects or an excessive need for comfort that is shared in an inappropriate way, such as demanding comfort to strangers or even friends (symbiotic connection). Those with Debiosis see their caregivers and loved ones as simply just "vital organs" and "friends" at the same time instead of an important aspect of love and attachment. Those with Debiosis fail to understand the meaning of attachment.

Those who have Debiosis see the world differently, they tend to believe (even if they understand it as ridiculous) that everything is a mere part of the self, they are the center of the world and that everything they feel and think also applies to others, for example, the debiotic believes that there is no need to share thoughts or feelings to others as they are believed to already know or feel the same thing, which somewhat impairs abilities to recognize the true feelings and thoughts of others. In more severe cases, the debiotic will engage in an extreme form of solipsism where no one but oneself has feelings.

In Debiosis, accepting the death or even separation from a caregiver, friend, favorite character or a comfort object is extremely difficult, not in the sense that they have lost them, but that without them, they will strongly feel as if they are being fragmented in pieces or slowly dying, this is due to the belief that the person or object was a vital part of the body like organs. It is not uncommon for debiotics to excessively worry that the person or object may undergo pain or die away, they are also like a comfort for the debiotic person against the outside world.

Social behaviors and communication
Those with debiosis tend to not understand what social rule to follow, since they believe they are the brain of the world, then they are practically creating the rules, thus exhibiting bizarre behaviors and following imaginary rules and rituals. For example, a person with Debiosis will try to plan very structured rituals, rules to follow or prayers for each day of the month, and refusing any change from them, or they might exaggerate their adherence to already existent rules, they fear being criticized or attacked for breaking these rules. On the other hand, they might also exhibit strange behaviors violating social norms such as talking to oneself in public, wearing inappropriate clothes or imitating other people beyond normal age.

Immature cognitive mechanisms
The most markedly important symptom is the confusion between the three worlds; the imaginary, reality and dreams, for example, they might believe an event has happened after thinking about it, or they might believe a dream has actually happened in real life, or they might think that things they have seen are not real, or they might believe they are in a dream or in their own imagination. A common exemple is the person asking to the other if they actually have said a certain imagined quote, the other person responds that they haven't said such a thing, the said quote can be ridiculous or outright disturbing, such confusions are easy to spot due to their bizarre content.

Another symptom for Debiosis may be the lack of maturity of cognitive mechanisms, it is basically characterized by a poor sense of reversiblity, which greatly affects how the person perceives the world and relates to it. There's also a development of a somewhat autistic-like personality in the sense of intensified interests and strange playing with objects.

Relationships with the outside world
Entering in contact with the outside world can be either mildly or extremely difficult for debiotics, they strongly fear novelty and new situations and prefer to keep their objects to them as they are strongly nostalgic. They also fear to get outside their home as it is a separation from safety, they tend to be extremely insecure in loud and crowded places, they feel as if people were going to attack them and thus always need to get their comfort object or caregivers with them. Most of them live in retreat in their home alone or with their parents, they keep an childish lifestyle where they still play with their toys they have been attached to, they also fear to see others suffering as they can imagine their own parents, favorite characters or comfort object in place of the others, which triggers a profound distress, they also refuse to watch TV others than ludic or animated shows or they might fear watching it too much. Some have been reported to commit suicide believing the whole world is going to die with them.

Those with debiosis often experience distortions of the outside world, either as more or less terrifying, for example, they might see everyone looking at them despite it not being the case, things may appear more or less beautiful at times, they might be terrified in a safe environment and vice versa.
