Delusion of GrandeurBy John M. Grohol, Psy.D.
~ 1 min read


 
A delusion of grandeur is the fixed, false belief that one possesses superior qualities such as genius, fame, omnipotence, or wealth. It is most often a symptom of schizophrenia, but can also be a symptom found in psychotic or bipolar disorders, as well as dementia (such as Alzheimer’s).
 
People with a delusion of grandeur often have the conviction of having some great but unrecognized talent or insight. They may also believe they have made some important discovery that others don’t understand or appreciate.

 

Less commonly, the individual may have the delusion of having a special relationship with a prominent person (such as being an adviser to the President). Or the person may believe that actually are a very prominent and important person, in which case the actual person may be regarded as an imposter.
 
Grandiose delusions may have religious content, such as the person believes he or she has received a special message from God or another deity.
 
Sometimes, in popular language, this disorder may be known as “megalomania,” but is more accurately referred to as narcissistic personality disorder if it is a core component of a person’s personality and identity. In such disorders, the person has a greatly out-of-proportion sense of their own worth and value in the world. People with this issue can also sometimes have a taste for the finer, more extravagant things in life.

This would be a job done better than any child or any lay person despite the flaws in that voice.  

 
Again, nonsense. You're not doing anything special. If you're trying to trip us up by forcing us to use "logic" in order to disprove that what you're doing is a talent, then I might as well spin that around and ask you to use logic in order to prove that what you're doing is talented.

That is my proof right there.  Do you honestly think that this heavy metal voice I did is no better than what a child or an average lay person could do?  Show me little children or average lay people (who have no talent) who can create a heavy metal voice like this:

Mario, a wise man knows that you can't learn any thing with your mouth open. Less verbiage and more time spent listening and learning from others, then applying it, is how you grow. You don't take the advice of those here who might want to help you. Instead, you brag about how talented and
special you are. If you search the threads on this forum you won't find ANYONE who constantly praises their self or their own work.Most of the members have been accomplished musicians and composers for decades. If you truly are looking for advice and help you may have already burned that bridge with your self centered diatribes. If you are sincere about composing, then get to it and bring your songs to the forum with humility and you will learn from the constructive criticism.offered here. If you just came in to act the fool, then you have won the oscar. I, personally would like to hear a serious composition from you so those here can help you with your journey. So, get to it.........like Bugs Bunny once said, "Puddup or shuddup!

Every six year old boy out there playing with his transformer toys makes the same kind of "voices" you did. Besides, the kid's voices are better than your's because the kid has more experience and emotion as he does it every day. He rehearses, do you? Your "voices" are not special and do not show talent. They are just shallow, and frankly embarrassing. Any middle school play production has child actors that show much greater depth than these silly videos.you made. The only person you are convincing is the one you see in the mirror. Sorry if the truth hurts. I thought this thread was about "the only reason for living is composing and blah blah blah blah blah blahblahblahblahblahblah.................

So you are saying that you see average children who play with toys with no talent making a heavy metal voice as good as mine then?  You have to be trolling here.  That cannot possibly happen unless the child has some talent.  People here have claimed me to be the troll, but I think you and others are the trolls instead.  Here is the heavy metal voice for any person to listen to.  I only think it is those types of people who are not trolls who would agree with what I said here in this post:

Is it just me or is this thread beginning to wreak? I'm going to go back to page one and see if I can find out where it starts ............

Morning Matt. Could you do the voice of a distressed goat with it's hoof caught in a hawthorn hedge?
 
I know it's a bit specific, but shouldn't be too much of a stretch for someone with your talent.

Has someone not banned this troll yet?
