Blaming others, telling lies, and indecisiveness

Blaming others, telling lies, and indecisiveness

In response to the above enquiries.

The blame game

Blaming others in itself is to lie.

Schizophrenics, neurotics and criminals play the blame game. In schizophrenia and psychosis, delusion is sometimes the only indication that an alternate personality has surfaced or a person has lost touch with reality either temporarily or over a prolonged period. Often the delusion is expressed by blaming the “devil” or the “witch next door who is out to get me.”

A milder expression of delusional blaming can be: “See, you made me do that!” or “See, you made me spill my coffee!”

In observing the Chinese mainland people, it is now evident that blaming others and the inability to blame oneself can be a trait ingrained in the psyche.

A person who suffers from delusional grandeur will blame others. The expression of this is: “I could never have done that!” instead of “I would not have done that.”

People with neurotic or neuropsychic disorders such as those above usually display social dysfunctionality.

Telling lies

To protect a lie, deny the obvious or blame others. A delusional criminal who rapes and kills a girl defends himself by saying: “She was in my way”, “She was too attractive”, or “She was alone.”

Those who blame others do not admit that they are wrong. To them, it is always the fault of others. In delusional grandeur, the neuropsychotic does not really understand nor realize that he or she may be wrong.

Perpetual liars perpetuate their lies and insist that their lies are the truth, and whatever factual information other people present is always untrue in the eye of the liars.

Of course we have had and still have people who perpetuate intentional lies with a political agenda.

Indecisiveness

Indecisiveness reflects mental confusion or mental conflict, as in “To be or not to be”. It may be a temporary inability to make choices. It often reflects a fear of making the wrong choice.

Indecisiveness can reflect an inner neuropsychic trauma of having to face up to a challenge, having to solve a problem, having to make a decision. It can reflect one’s cowardliness. Cowardliness is often a manifestation of neuropsychic fear and timidity. In many cases, a traumatic experience can make one become timid and cowardly, such as a fear of drowning. It can also reflect a lack of confidence.

Blaming others and telling lies are often used to boost confidence and to cover one’s inferiority complex.
