For some psychotic reason known only to god and the grays who probed me, I have been following Chris since all this madness started. Chris was always kooky and had weird mannerisms. But the truly fucked up, weird, infamous shit? That was all him responding to trolls. If they had left him alone in the beginning Chris would still be a dorky (if somewhat creepy) neighborhood eccentric nobody gave a shit about. He would have been sitting in his room playing video games for the past 10 years instead of shoving medallions up his ass and driving to PA for non-existent poon and crap like that. Who knows, maybe he would have actually straightened himself out somewhat. He never would have been "normal", but he would have been functional.

Now? Just...fuck, look at the guy...lady...person.

Chris is genuinely a funny guy. He talks funny, he interprets normal situations in a funny way. He's just... funny.

However, that raw input alone will not get you the whole Chris saga. All the videos and performances required someone to actively give Chris a reason to go online. He slides off the internet if he can't get something out of it.

Chris is doing funny, wacky shit IRL all the time. We just won't hear about it without someone compelling him to go online.

To lazy to quote your post, but there are many different types of schizophrenic. People can be Schizoprenic and hold down professional careers. It’s not all just zombies talking to fake people on the street. In any case, none of us are qualified to really say what his mental state is.

Aren't those people usually medicated?

Isn't schizophrenia a severe mental disturbance?

I think psychiatrists Chris has come into contact with keep making the mistake of assuming all his behavior and general weirdness is because of autism and nothing else. I know a lot of autistic people. Chris? He's beyond autism. If he's not schizophrenic specifically then he has some other sort of latent problem that's been unaddressed for years and that is constantly being exacerbated by his living conditions and events in his life. He clearly doesn't know how to separate fantasy from reality anymore, at any rate. Once you get to that point the distinctions between mental illnesses become moot and you're just kookoobananas in general

He used Neptunia character names to pose as said characters, from there he would play Payday 2 with Chris and have long-ass chats with him through the Steam chat.

@Null @The Captain @Marvin This reminds me, tell Chris to pull up his Steam Chat history, I am absolutely certain there is faggy w333n shit there too.

Not always. You can be what some call "pre-event scizophrenic", meaning you're starting to show symptoms but haven't developed a serious issue yet. There is also something called "residual scizophrenia" which is a low-level schizoprenia (consider it the "high functioning" version of schizophrenia). You can also be "post-schizoprenic", where you had a serious schizophrenic episode but pulled out of it mostly. These are just a few of the options besides being the raving lunatics you see on tv.

*please note I'm also an idiot on the internet mostly talking out my ass, not an expert

Based on talking to Chris, besides autism and general stupidity, I wouldn't think he's mentally ill. If you replace the content of Chris' beliefs with something equally stupid, but socially acceptable (dons fedora), the beliefs fade into the background as normal, as he functions socially otherwise.

If there's mental illness in Chris, it's something that none of us would see coming, that we wouldn't also see in any random person on the street.

That's mostly what I'm getting at.

I'm glad that Chris wasn't introduced to the Dark Tower stuff. The series is about the multiverse dying and one of the non-magical means to travel dimensions is to die or kill yourself and wake up in your double.

That has some fucking disturbing implications as to where they were going with all this, especially since they already were able to convince him they could Death Star cwcville irl.

Well, is that such an impossibility at this point?
While we're on that subject, so what about early CWC stuff, like Tale of The Crazy Pacer and the comics themselves?

The more recent comics, if anything. But the older ones feel more like his own doing, but was influenced by all the events that happened (trolls or otherwise) around that time. And Sonichu itself seems like a concept he'd come up with on his own.

Anything involving public places I feel were more his own doing than anything, especially the Snyder saga.

Chris isn't schizophrenic. He is able to put his fantasies aside when financial reality enters the equation.

Let me put it this way, serial killer Richard Chase (the "vampire of Sacramento") believed he needed to drink blood, because otherwise his would dry up. Chase was, in more ways then one, a classic example of extreme paranoid schizophrenia. At the same time, before embarking on his short, hideous, killing spree where he murdered one entire family and played around in their gore like some sort of deranged 2 year old in a kiddy pool, his family and acquaintances thought he was getting "better".

Reason? Despite being batshit insane, he was rational enough to know that he had to keep his "hobby" on the down low. He cut his hair and cleaned himself up, he would tell his parents he was looking for a job, he avoided doing anything notably crazy (which, for a guy who was previously putting small animals in a blender on a daily basis was probably a tall order). He bought rubber gloves so he wouldn't leave finger prints, he scheduled all his killings on a calendar in his house, and despite being an erratic maniac was about as organized about this shit as he was capable of being (which is to say, barely)

My point with all this is that just because Chris shows the capacity for realistic thinking, or a general understanding of the world, doesn't mean he isn't deeply disturbed and delusional. He knows he has to pay his bills because otherwise he ends up on the street. That doesn't mean he isn't living in a mental hell where reality and fiction become meaningless concepts

Just in case he tries to scrub it, here are the last few screennames Josh used (he's been private since the dox initially dropped), did the nigga seriously try to pose as Chris's own Dreamcast?

Let's try to call in the resident weeb experts: @Jaimas @GethN7 can you see if you recognize any of those names?

In skipping around the thread so forgive me if this has been answered already, but would it be...advisable I suppose, to (politely) contact the agencies mentioned as concerned individuals? Make a push for them to take it seriously? Also, how could I donate towards Bronycon? I wouldn't normally bother but fucking hell, Chris needs a break. I get paid four days before, so couldn't help with hotel or admission (I dont think anyway) but could put money towards food, gas, toletries...maybe even a little spending money. Maybe not all of that, I have no idea what the cost of anything related to a con is, but I'm willing to put money towards something (or buy giftcards if that would be better for him Idk.)

ETA: Long day, meant to tag people
@Marvin @Null @The Captain
Also, if there's a possibility of Chris getting a lawyer to sue these asshats, I'm willing to dedicate a portion of my biweekly pay to help with that. I know its autistic, but real fucking abuse has been done to somebody who's been manipulated for years by jackasses because they think its funny to watch someone with autism hurt himself physically and socially. Whatever you think of Chris, he deserves justice; even if that just means a stern letter from an authority figure sent straight to their mothers. And their faces plastered across the front page of the internet.

TL;DR I feel sorry for Chris and want to help however I can

"Is Richard getting better?"

I agree with your point though. It's a broad spectrum. However, I'm not convinced one way or the other. Wanting so badly to believe is almost as significant as actually believing sometimes.
