After watching this film, I feel very heartwarming. It is impossible to scrutinize the details carefully, but the crazy world itself is so

Pat--Cognitive and psychological disorders caused by stress (personality disorders are not excluded). Possibility) + Mood disorder

and mania .
Attention and memory disorders are both cognitive and psychological disorders. Why do cognitive and psychological disorders occur?
From the perspective of cognitive psychology, cognition is the mediator of human emotion and behavior. The cause of human emotion and behavior problems is not the event itself, but people's interpretation of the event. Good cognition produces positive emotional experiences and behaviors, but cognitive misinterpretation can lead to obvious negative emotions and behaviors.
Therefore, the reason for Pat's cognitive and psychological disorders depends to a large extent on the previous living environment. When he gets along with Nikki, he can't watch pornographic films and talk about pornographic jokes. His father is often coercive and domineering, and his brother's success contrasts with his own failure. Pat suppressed his normal perception of things. To put it bluntly, he is relatively simple and thinks the world is more beautiful, but nikki's betrayal made his cognitive world collapse. He draws power from books but has no weight from facts, Tiffany Appearing in the image of a slut is at odds with Pat's cognition, but in getting along, Pat discovered the reason for what Tiffany did, as well as a kind and beautiful heart, which made Pat re-cognize the world and find true love.
In addition, I don’t think Pat has an anxiety disorder, because he doesn’t have the main features of anxiety disorder, such as worrying about people around him, and other dangers that point to the future and don’t actually exist, so I think Pat’s manic behavior is caused by stress. of cognitive impairment.
