Trump Derangement Syndrome

A severe personality disorder that Trump supporters suffer from, which disables their critical-thinking abilities, dulls the anterior insular cortex (the brain's empathy and self-awareness center) and leads to an uncomfortable state of chronic cognitive dissonance. Once an individual fuses their personal identity with former reality TV figure Donald Trump they develop an inexplicable compulsion to defend him with religious fervor, even when his actions go against their previous values.
Rather than admit they were misguided and gullible to be so regularly conned by him, the disorder causes the individual to double down rather than to sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up.

“My aunt has terrible Trump Derangement Syndrome. She said she was voting for Trump because he was the “anti-war” president who was going to release the Epstein Files. Now that Trump said he doesn’t care about the files, she has convinced herself he’s just using reverse psychology to get the liberals riled up enough to also demand their release. She won’t just admit she was conned into voting for him.”

Atheist Trauma Syndrome

The legitimate psychological injury resulting from exposure to toxic, authoritarian, or abusive environments within atheist or anti-theist communities, not from atheism itself. It encompasses PTSD-like symptoms—anxiety, shame, guilt, and identity fragmentation—triggered by militant online harassment, dogmatic bullying from atheist figures, or the profound existential crisis induced when coercive "debunking" tactics dismantle a person's worldview without offering compassionate support. The trauma stems from the social and rhetorical violence experienced in these spaces, leaving individuals isolated and psychologically wounded, often requiring recovery that involves separating the valid philosophical stance of atheism from the harmful behaviors of its most aggressive proponents.

Example: A young person from a moderate religious background, curious about science, joins an online atheist forum. They are immediately bombarded with vicious ridicule of their "fairytale" beliefs, called "stupid" and "brainwashed" by prominent members, and pressured to publicly renounce their family. They develop severe anxiety, lose their sense of meaning, and feel profound shame for their prior beliefs, yet also feel alienated from the hostile atheist community. Their trauma isn't from losing faith, but from the brutal, dehumanizing process through which it was attacked and stripped away. Atheist Trauma Syndrome.

Atheist Trauma Syndrome Denial

A more specific, clinical-sounding form of Atheist Trauma Denial that actively disputes the syndromic nature of the injury. It argues that the collection of symptoms (anxiety, identity disturbance, hypervigilance) does not constitute a legitimate psychological syndrome because it originates from a "rational" source (criticism of religion). This denial often comes from those with a simplistic, hyper-rationalist view of the mind, rejecting the well-established principle that the manner of discourse—not just its factual content—can be pathogenic, especially when it involves manipulation, verbal abuse, and social ostracization.

Example: A therapist identifies a client's symptoms as consistent with complex trauma stemming from prolonged harassment in an atheist activist group. An online commentator, citing the client's story, writes a lengthy blog post titled "The 'Atheist Trauma Syndrome' Myth," arguing that what's described is merely "education-induced discomfort" and that recognizing it as a syndrome medicalizes healthy skepticism and protects religious fragility. This denies the client's lived reality by imposing an ideological filter over their psychological diagnosis. Atheist Trauma Syndrome Denial.

Scientific Trauma Syndrome

The clinical constellation of symptoms resulting from prolonged or acute Scientific Trauma, including: chronic anxiety related to intellectual expression, loss of passion for inquiry, hypervigilance to perceived dogma or orthodoxy, identity confusion (e.g., "Am I even a scientist?"), and somatic symptoms like insomnia or panic attacks triggered by scientific discourse. It represents the internalization of a hostile epistemic environment, where the tools of knowledge-seeking become associated with threat, shame, and social danger.

Example: A science journalist who was once passionate now experiences a racing heart and dread before writing any article, fearing a minor error will lead to a career-ending Twitter mob accusing them of "anti-science." They second-guess every sentence, have withdrawn from public discourse, and feel like a fraud despite a solid track record. Their love of science has been replaced by a pathological fear of the scientific community's punitive social enforcement mechanisms. This syndrome is the professional and personal cost of an ecosystem that values purity policing over curiosity. Scientific Trauma Syndrome.
