[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 541168, member: 14557"] You are right. I just went rambling off topic (what else is new? :winking:) There is absolutely no reason why caricature character in light literature should be labelled to any real diagnosis or anything. It's not relevant in any way and there is no real reason to do so. And especially do so, when the label doesn't even make sense. Even when the character in the novel is an accurate presentation of some type of disorder, it is often unnecessary to mention that. And it even gives more real life feel to it. It's not common that people you meet come to say hello and start with "Hi! I'm Joe and I have dxs x, y and z." And of course then we can later discuss if Darth Vader has Borderline (BPD) and if Scarlett O'Hara is a narcissist. [/QUOTE]
