Stalkholm Syndrome 

Somewhat akin to the psychological phenomena seen in hostages, where the hostage develops and emotional attachment to the hostage-taker, known as "Stockholm Syndrome" coined in 1973 after it was seen in bank robbery hostages in Stockholm, Sweden, except, in cases of "Stalkholm Syndrome" the individual being stalked forms a similar attachment to their stalker.

Josh: "What's wrong?"
Jennifer: "Its just that ever since Matt went to jail for violating the restraining order, I kinda miss the constant texts/phone calls and watching him lurk outside in the bushes."

Marilyn was diagnosed with Stalkholm Syndrome by her psychologist, Dr. Spanks, because "normal dating", to Marilyn, usually consisted of a man stalking her for a few months and then eventually becoming her boyfriend.

Stockholm Syndrome 

You might know it as the popular song by One Direction but it is a real syndrome.
Stockholm syndrome is a syndrome that is gained during being kidnapped. You begin to gain positive feelings for that person usually of the opposite sex. The main reason for obtaining Stockholm Syndrome is the kidnapper telling the captor that they will no kill them or if they feed them on a regular basis.

The captor begins to feel grateful and think of them as a good person or even start to gain feelings for their kidnapper not wanting to be rescued.

When they are rescued they talk about their captor as good or even loving person.

Belle from 'Beauty and The Beast' is said to have Stockholm Syndrome.

person 1, "Look at that girl on the TV, she just got rescued from that awful man."
person 2, "Whats's she saying?"
person 1, "That he was a great person. But he kidnapped her!"

Bibby Stockholm Syndrome 

Like Stockholm Syndrome, but more affordable to the UK taxpayer.

Cost to the State further reduced by the confirmed presence of Legionella. All being well the same ought to reduce (in the most permanent way) those suffering with Bobby Stockholm Syndrome by c. 10%.

Prime Minister: ‘How can we sell Bibby Stockholm Syndrome to the base?’

Home Secretary: ‘Simple! Unlike that woke nonsense “Stockholm Syndrome”, Bibby Stockholm Syndrome has a 10% chance of resulting in the genuine death of the captive!’

Prime Minister: ‘You’ve done it again!’

political stockholm syndrome 

It is when a person understands that the government and politicians are corrupt, but will not go down the rabbit hole because it shatters the paradigm they live in. In other words, when having a conversation about politics, they will readily agree that politicians lie, but when you begin breaking it down for them about how corrupt they actually are and point out any nefarious agendas, they will then call you crazy, or a conspiracy theorist. At this point, they will defend those who imprison them with the lies they accept as the truth.

Tom is a good guy, but he refuses to accept that there is no possible way a missile could have hit the pentagon. He refuses to use common sense to see that the engines and wings would have also destroyed the building, and not just leave a single hole. He truly has Political Stockholm Syndrome.

Most people in this country have PSS, they refuse to see the truth before their eyes.
