What emotional make-up in terms of the mentally ill ending up STALKING other's???!?!?

Question

What goes WRONG with them??
You always see the ugly one's on tv portrayed as stalker, when in fact, in real life, often times they are very attractive or even gorgeous [sometimes]

But ANYWAY, can you REALLY blame it on someone being merely 'lonely'??
I mean, really because what if the person is married, but still chooses to stalk you?
do they have a form of obsessive compulsive disorder or what??

Answer 1

I had a stalker, 100% stalks on a need for something. They think you can provide them with something that no one else can, that's why they focus on you.

My stalker wasn't serious - but when I had a TRO placed on her, she wasn't pleased.

Be careful - best not to let them in to any part of your life - otherwise they feel like you're making a move.

Good luck with this.

Answer 2

I don't think stalking really has anything to do with a mental illness- at least, not depression, bipolar disorder,or schizophrenia or an anxiety disorder. I think it has more to do with a maladaptive personality, or the person was not raised properly. If society is going to say every maladaptive behavior is the result of a mental illness, then I guess a stalker is mentally ill. but that just makes it harder for the rest of us nice folks who happen to have a mental illness.

I think a lot of stalkers are people who are extremely possessive. That's poor upbringing, in my opinion. a mental illness may escalate that. (On the other hand, kind people who are mentally ill may inappropriately donate a kidney, or give all their money to charity. So you get the opposite, too)

A bit of a rambling answer, hope it was informative.

Answer 3

well not sure how they become this but you know they have to have bolt missing somewhere to be like that. its sad but that is how it works sometimes its a ting for you and they start looking for you and follwoing you and stuff like that its not what you preceive its what they preceive about you and then they make it into dream world and go after one aonther. its sicknessi am sure but what kind i have no idea.
