Did you know, Stockholm syndrome isn't a real mental illness, according to the DSM? People think that you get Stockholm syndrome from being captured and you start to feel feelings for your capture, but that isn't what it is. It's more the victim feels dependent on the capture, than just having feelings of love for them. The "Symptoms" of Stockholm syndrome are way more vast and can be confused. I had to re-look them up because they are so many, and when I look Douyun Kim, he doesn't even check off half of the "Symptoms". In previous chapters along with this one (63) Douyun stood up to Sungho which is not what someone who has the symptoms of Stockholm would do. People who have those symptoms are dependent on their captures, so they would do what they are told without objection. Douyun had many objections. People on the outside cannot diagnosis it, not only because it isn't in the DSM, but because it is up to the victim to sit back and admit where they stand with their capture. Not saying that their relationship isn't toxic, but it would be up to the person who you think might have Stockholm Syndrome to admit to it, for it to be recognized. I just love to share facts, sorry.
I decided to put these down here too. Just for fun, I put (x)s next to all the ones that don't check out.
Emotional: (x) lack of feeling, (x) fear, (x) helplessness, () hopelessness, () aggression, (x)depression, (x) guilt, (x) dependence on captor, and (x) development of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Social: (x) anxiety, (x) irritability, (x) cautiousness, and () estrangement.
Physical: (x) increase in effects of pre-existing conditions; (x) development of health conditions due to possible restriction from food, sleep, and exposure to outdoors.
