People with OCPD do not generally feel the need to repeatedly perform ritualistic actions—a common symptom of OCD—and usually find pleasure in perfecting a task, whereas people with OCD are often more distressed after their actions.

I agree, however I think there ought to be some kind of source page we can create within the wikimedia space somewhere, where persons cite per film, either DSM-IV-TR, DSM-5 or ICD-X criteria relating to characters and their behavior. It'd be quite a task... and even scholarly papers on the subject of

1. The editor has listed movies with a supernatural element, like the Butterfly Effect, The Shining, and Donnie Darko, where i don't recall the character as actually being schizophrenic, so much as being under understandably heavy stress do to new found psychic powers, ghosts, and so on. If you want

This movie should be under Dissociative Disorders and not under Schizophrenia because the main character (played by Jim Carrey) suffers from Multiple Personality Disorder or Dissociative Identity Disorder in the movie, not Schizophrenia. Schizophrenia is not a split personality or one or more other

In the movie, Sally had normal, if not gifted development, as shown by her mother's tapes of her speaking in various languages at a young age, among other proof. This problem is that although it was originally described in 1908, it was not recognized as a diagnosis until recently, which means that
301:
I think you guys are confusing the two, these movies featured Obsessive compulsive Disorder ,see wiki article OCPD is often confused with obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD). Despite the similar names, they are two distinct disorders, although some OCPD individuals also suffer from OCD, and the two
456:
2. The DID category is a major spoiler for some of those movies. Also since we're including less than serious portrayals of the disorders why no Psycho, since, accurate or not, it is one of the most famous movie portrayals of a dissociative person? I'm not sure if in Friday the 13th Mrs. Voorhees

Obsessive compulsive Disorder (ocd) vs Obsessive compulsive personality Disorder(ocpd ) - these movies Obsessive compulsive Disorder which is anxiety Disorder not personality Disorder - ocd obsessions which cause anxiety & lead to compulsions which one is driven to perform, ocpd preoccied with

Also - I believe the movie diagnoses Sally with autism, when in fact she has symptoms more concurrent with Childhood Disintegrative Disorderent for the first two years of life, followed by loss of important functioning skills before the age of 10, in at least two of the following areas "language

Even though that is the case, The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders includes, and has included in the past, a number of disorders which are primarily organic. This includes: Delirium, dementia, and Rett's disorder. Autism is, obviously, included as well. Each of these has
387:
Why is this film listed under Borderline Personality Disorder? The doctor in the film only mentioned dissociative identity disorder. BPD wasn't even alluded too. Does someone have a source for why they included this film? If not, I'm removing it.
638:
it probably was not in the DSM-III, and the DSM-IV was not released until 1994, after the movie had been released. This is an issue with the movie itself, but I did want to point out the common misconception with the movie and it's category.
330:
I've added the 2007 film Numb which depicts depersonalization disorder - which is a dissociative disorder. I'm only specifying this here because most on that list seem to feature DID which of course is only one of the dissociative disorders.
626:
Under the autism category it lists the amazing 1993 movie House of Cards. Problem is the link goes to the 1990 British Mini-Series also called House of Cards. This link error needs to be fixed, but I have no idea how to do it.

1. the madness of king george- king george the iii did not have schizophrenia, but porphyria. this physical condition had significant psych effects (akin to the list labeled AIDS-related psychosis), but not schiz.

Moe I would add category of histrionic personality Disorder and make blanche from a streetcar named desire - think this diagnosis fits her better - sexually provocative to men, theathrical, attention seeking.
592:" had a character who had another personality, but he could see it as another person, and it could remember things he didnt. Just thought that would be put for consideration, on which category to put it in. 436:
3. There is dispute as to the diagnosis of david helfgott, the character palyed by geoffrey rush in shine. it is inconclusive whether or not it is/was a "stress disorder" (or schizoaffective, schizophrenia,

Thanks for your input. I fixed the link. Childhood Disintegrative Disorder is under Autism Spectrum Disorders, so it's ok where it is, these are broad categories as films are open to interpretation.
446:
4. "Radio" should be on this list somewhere....probably under mental retardation? Someone better informed would have a better idea of where to put it.... - Have put under Misc for another to place.
844: 483:
I know that the show Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex depicts a mental hospital of the future in the first season. I would have to look into it more for how to insert it into this list...
596:
More than one identity in a single character is a common device in fiction. It's interesting but it doesn't mean the character has DID. This is the same issue I have with Fight Club.
410:
Smeagol had dissociative disorder and it's clearly shown in the film. I'll add Two Towers and Return of the King to the list because it is shown throughout those two movies.
695:
I think it should be moved to the Miscellaneous section, because the Ed Norton character doesn't meet diagnostic criteria for any of the dissociative disorders.
