Abstract

The most important characteristic of contemporary society is continuous change; however, imposed social circumstances have not altered the distinctions in defining scientific knowledge in relation to other forms of acquired knowledge. Mental disorders are health conditions described through a causal relationship between human neuropsychology and social interactions; they are predominantly externally invisible, do not affect all aspects of life, occur in waves (better and worse periods), and individuals can function despite the internal struggles that mental disorders initiate. The subject of our research is the systematization of triggers (social "triggers"), manifest symptoms, and social mimicries (adaptive strategies) which, in individuals with mental disorders who function in everyday life, initiate the transition (identified through manifest symptoms) from the so-called "good period" to the "bad period," during which, in the majority of cases, they become more or less socially dysfunctional. Based on our direct and comparative examinations, observations, and perceptions, we focused on individuals who, in certain social interactions, exhibit a clear transition from psychological diffi culties to mental disorders, the causality of which we infer from the consequences produced for themselves, other people, and the broader environment.
