Signs of inappropriate human behavior. Inappropriate behavior, how to help a person

In our daily life, you can often hear the phrase "inappropriate behavior." We tend to associate this phrase with behavior that is different from what we consider normal. What should be our reaction to inappropriate behavior: sound the alarm or wait for everything to go away on its own?
The main thing you need to know is that inappropriate behavior can occur in a person with emerging or already existing mental illnesses.

Options for inappropriate behavior

Unmotivated outbursts of aggression

Aggressiveness is the most common manifestation in its various forms. This can be manifested by extreme irritability, when a person “takes out evil” on loved ones, or by excessive conflict. In extreme cases, it comes to assault and antisocial behavior.

Aggression can lead to the destruction of personality, relationships with loved ones and friends. Teenagers are very susceptible to attacks of aggression. In some cases, they seem to provoke adults into scandals. This is a manifestation of unhealthy aggression, indicating mental ill-being, possibly depression. In this situation, the correct behavior of adults is important, which is expressed in sufficient attention to the problems of a teenager, as well as timely seeking qualified help. This will help prevent the development of pathological changes in the psyche and preserve the personality of a person.

Rave

Inappropriate behavior also refers to various delusional ideas. In the presence of delirium, a person does not always express it, but changes in his behavior can signal a mental disorder. This can manifest itself in mild forms, for example, when it seems to a person that behind his back other people condemn him. In this case, he can break off all contacts with people who fall under suspicion, without explaining the reasons. There are also more serious signs, for example, if a person stops driving a car because it seems to him that the car was damaged by intruders. He may stop using his computer and telephone for fear of being tapped by the security services.
You should also be wary of a sudden and inexplicable passion for mysticism, extrasensory perception or religion. This may be a sign or hallucinations, about which the patient prefers to remain silent. Pathological passion for mysticism and religion differs from the thinking and behavior of ordinary believers. The patient's thoughts constantly return to delusional ideas, he begins to plan some actions related to the content of the delusion. This is a state of psychosis that needs to be urgently treated in!

Do not underestimate the danger of delusion. A sick person can be dangerous: he can defend himself from imaginary persecutors or personify “demons” in someone. For example, the murder of the priest Father Adelheim was committed by a man in a state of psychosis.

hallucinations

With auditory hallucinations, the sick person can speak, whisper something in the absence of an interlocutor, laugh for no reason, listen. The voices in auditory hallucinations are in most cases unfamiliar, but sometimes they are perceived as the voices of relatives or friends. Appearing can push the sick person to search for an explanation of the phenomenon through religious or mystical teachings.

If you suspect that a person has delusions or hallucinations, you should seek medical help as soon as possible. It should be remembered that in the case of early treatment to a psychiatrist, the disease is much better treated.
You can consult on the symptoms of the disease at the Mental Health Clinic remotely, by phone or by calling +7 499 793-45-15.

Many people in the early stages of a mental disorder are afraid to go to a psychiatric clinic. This is due to the negative image of this area of ​​medicine, which is surrounded by numerous myths. In addition, until now, mental illness is considered something shameful, which is not customary to talk about.
In fact, according to statistics, every seventh person on the planet suffers or suffered from a mental disorder, and psychiatry has become a modern and rapidly developing branch of medicine.

Inadequacy is the mismatch of individual acts of mental activity or their totality to external circumstances. For example, paranoia is characterized by emotional inconsistency. In other words, an incomprehensible and abnormal manifestation of emotions as a response to an external stimulus, or a lack of response to the condition that awakened it. Often, a discrepancy in behavioral response is noted in subjects suffering from a pathology of a psychoneurological nature, dependence on the consumption of narcotic drugs and alcohol-containing liquids. In addition, inadequacy can be observed at the puberty stage of growing up as a behavior moving away from social boundaries. Inadequacy is more clearly manifested when it is impossible to adapt to the environment or difficult everyday situations.

Reasons for inadequacy

In order to identify the factors that give rise to inappropriate behavior, it is necessary to understand what the concept of "adequacy" means. The definition of this term is rather vague, since the boundary between abnormality and norm is often erased. For example, a certain manner of behavior in one person seems organic and normal to others, but in another subject it causes condemnation and rejection. Excessive extravagance of a young person will be taken as a manifestation of individuality and style, a similar image in an elderly lady will cause ridicule and censure. In other words, the society will consider an elderly lady in an extravagant outfit that does not fit the age period, inadequate.

The inadequacy of behavior, from the position of psychological science, is a behavioral response that does not correspond to the surrounding reality, deviating from the generally established normative postulates and rules.

Simply put, inadequacy means a deviation of behavior, a person’s claims, his plans from the edges of established norms, elementary prudence, beyond the limits of behavior that is considered natural in order to obtain the optimal result, mutually beneficial for the subjects that are included in the interaction.

Inadequacy differs from recklessness in that a stupid individual makes mistakes and acts incorrectly due to delusions, misunderstanding of things, skewed ideas towards an irrational view. At the same time, there is a certain in his behavior. In other words, the actions of such subjects are incorrect, but quite understandable.

Inadequate individuals commit unacceptable and abnormal acts intentionally, realizing this. Acting inadequately, the subject consciously seeks to destroy or deform the established norms of society in his own favor in order to obtain a certain benefit, material or psychological.

The state of inadequacy may occur due to the following factors:

- inborn personality traits;

- individual character traits (, gambling, leadership qualities, exaggerated sexual desire);

– social living conditions;

- economic well-being;

- position in society;

- family relationships;

- serious illnesses, injuries;

- interpersonal relationships, for example, interaction with an individual showing a negative behavior pattern;

- mental disorders;

- an excess of responsibilities (the need to meet norms and standards, reduced deadlines for completing tasks force people to take on an excessive number of responsibilities, fear of being unable to achieve what was planned is poorly reflected in behavioral response);

- consumption of alcoholic beverages;

There can be a lot of reasons that provoke the inadequacy of behavior, in addition to those given. However, it must be remembered that often the essence of the problem is multifaceted and multicomponent.

Signs of inadequacy

There are many signs of inadequacy, but it is necessary to consider it comprehensively. Individuals should not be labeled as inadequate by finding only one of the following manifestations.

The state of inadequacy is expressed in the following actions. And above all, it is found in unpredictable mood swings of a polar nature (a bad mood is replaced by a good one - a bad one), an unexpected reaction to people (excessively impulsive behavior). The facial expressions and gestures of an individual who is in the described state do not correspond to what is happening. Such subjects are characterized by excessive theatricality, fussiness, excessive gesticulation, or, on the contrary, unnatural calmness that does not correspond to the situation, a frozen, unblinking look directly into the eyes of the interlocutor.

An inadequate person tends to interrupt the conversation, does not listen to their arguments and judgments, may not listen to others at all, or voice his own opinion off topic. Peremptory statements often slip through. Individuals in a state of inadequacy often express opinions that are completely inappropriate. They can translate the subject of conversation in a completely different direction. They talk more about themselves. Their speech is filled with swear words, rude expressions, slang turns. In addition, they can use demonstratively abstruse sentences in everyday everyday conversation.

In appearance, inappropriate selection of clothes, a style that does not correspond to the event or setting, pretentious or defiant outfits are noted. Appearance also undergoes changes: brightly colored curls, an unusual hairstyle that causes makeup. In the sons of Adam, inadequacy is manifested in excessive piercings, "tunnels" in the auricles, many tattoos, scarring.

Inadequate people tend to perceive "with hostility" any judgments and ideas of opponents during a conversation, regardless of their argumentation and logic. They are also characterized by increased resentment, an inadequate reaction to friendly banter, jokes, harmless jokes.

Inadequacy of behavior can be expressed in suspicion, motor disinhibition, suicidal attempts or a tendency to self-harm, immoral acts, antisocial actions, conflict, violation of social interaction, categorical statements.

Affect of inadequacy

The described phenomenon is a stable negative emotional state that arises as a result of failure, failure and is characterized by ignoring the fact of a fiasco or unwillingness to take responsibility for failure. It arises as a result of conditions that entailed the subject's need to preserve his incorrectly formed high self-esteem and an overestimated degree of claims.

To admit one's own inadequacy for an individual means to go against the existing need to preserve one's own self-esteem. However, he does not want to allow this. From here, an inadequate response to one's failure is born, manifested in the form of affective behavioral reactions.

The most important factor of human existence is emotions. They provide a colorful life, allow you to evaluate, to enjoy. Different pathologies can cause different variations of perversion of emotional response.

With individual deviations (schizophrenia, a number), the emotional response becomes inappropriate for the conditions in which the individual finds himself. It is possible to distinguish such variations of the inadequacy of emotions as: paramimia, parathymia, emotional, paradoxicality, echomimy and automatisms.

Emotional paradoxicality is due to the prevalence of connections in contrast. It is expressed in the desire to cause harm or trouble to individuals whom the patient himself especially loves. For example, an irresistible desire to use foul language during worship, which arises in a truly religious subject. Also here can be attributed a kind of pleasure from dental algia or pleasure from the awareness of humiliation.

All manifestations of the considered deviation can be conditionally defined to two subgroups. The emergence of experiences inappropriate to a particular situation is called parathymia. For example, a person reports a joyful moment with tears. Such a change in the expression of emotions arises from damage to the cerebral cortex. Otherwise, emotional paradoxicality is manifested by a weakening of normal emotional reactions to significant events against the background of an increase in response to minor accompanying events. Such inadequacy is due to the psyche-stethic proportion. At the same time, the emotional reactions of the individual are difficult to predict. For example, a person remains indifferent to a tragic event, but will sob heart-rendingly over a plucked flower.

A manifestation of emotional inadequacy is grimacing, expressed in exaggerated, exaggerated, rapidly changing facial movements. The nature of expressiveness and the emotional fullness of the grimace of the situation does not correspond.

Paramimia is the inconsistency of facial reactions with the content of the emotional state of the individual. It is expressed in pathological excitation of a motor character that occurs in the facial muscles. Some arbitrariness of facial contractions, their unidirectionality is preserved with the external manifestation of a certain emotion. Paramimia is also manifested by contractions of various groups of facial muscles of varying intensity. At the same time, their coordination and synergy are lost. This leads to a combination of different, often polar mimic movements.

Emotional ambivalence is found in the feeling of different emotions in relation to one object. "Unrestraint" of emotions occurs in subjects suffering from paralysis or age-related paralysis. Affects quickly arise and almost instantly disappear. Any little thing can plunge such patients into despair or make them happy.

Emotional automatisms are expressed in the feeling of foreignness of one's own feelings. It seems to the individual that emotions are caused from outside, and do not belong to him.

Echomimicry is manifested by the automatism of reproducing vivid manifestations of the partner's emotions. People unconsciously copy gestures, intonation, facial expressions.

What does "inadequate person" mean. Criteria of inadequacy?

1. An inadequate person is when a person's emotions, reactions and behavior do not correspond to the existing circumstances or situation. Inadequacy - the degree of inexplicability and inconsistency of the actions of the individual. Inconsistency of the model of his behavior with known models of behavior in similar conditions. For example, schizophrenia is characterized by emotional inadequacy, that is, strange and incomprehensible emotional reactions to external events, or a lack of reactions to events that should have caused them. In ordinary life, inadequacy of behavior is observed in people suffering from psycho-neurological pathology, alcohol and drug addiction, also in adolescence in the form of deviant behavior (behavior that deviates from social norms of behavior), with ineffective realization of the need for communication (isolation or excessive talkativeness ), in violation of the usual way of life (for example, moving to another country, the death of a loved one) or the daily routine (daily work, night shifts).
   Simply put, inadequate is everything that does not correspond to the usual, known and accepted as the norm of manifestation.
2. Alcoholism makes a person inadequate. You need to drink less, then no one will consider an inadequate person
3. Inadequate person - oh don't care, and so they already wrote)
4. take frivolous questions seriously
5. In orphanages, shelters, centers, difficult situations constantly arise between the management, educators and pupils, which goes without saying: teenagers are there because of problematic and inappropriate behavior. There are fights, teenagers run away, there are thefts and other crimes.
   To work with adolescents, specialists must distinguish between the concepts of incident and crisis. Let's discuss five basic principles that are important to use during crises and incidents. We will talk about how to reduce tension using non-verbal behavior. And then about the methods of stopping and refracting inappropriate behavior.
   Incidents are situations in which one or more teenagers (persistently) exhibit inappropriate behavior (temporary) that disrupts the daily routine. Inadequate behavior, which consists, for example, in non-compliance with the instructions of the group leadership, educators, is burdensome, but it can be stopped or broken with a certain persistence. In this case, we are not yet talking about threats or aggression of a physical nature.
   Crisis situations are situations in which one or more adolescents persistently exhibit inappropriate behavior that breaks the daily routine, as well as situations in which individuals are threatened and / or attacked.
   BASIC PRINCIPLES

   During incidents and crises, five basic principles are important: 1) the daily routine is preferred; 2) drastic measures are taken from the very beginning; 3) the teenager receives information about what skills he needs; 4) ask for help and separate roles; 5) the personal safety of others is given priority. Let's look at each of these principles in more detail.
   Preference is given to the daily routine of the day. In case of violation or breakage of the daily routine, pupils who are not directly involved in the incident or crisis will not be able to do their usual activities, as they are used to. This increases the likelihood of inappropriate behavior.
   For this reason, in incidents or crises, preference should be given to creating a working situation, which is achieved by restoring the daily routine of the day. In some cases, this will lead to the fact that the interests of other pupils will be observed to the detriment of the interests of the adolescent involved in the crisis or incident.
   Giving preference to the observance of the daily routine, educators, group leaders, of course, do not disregard the teenager involved in the crisis or incident. First, the group leader ensures that the daily routine is continued, and then draws attention to this teenager.
   From the very beginning, drastic measures are being taken. Behavior is rarely a single independent event, more often it consists of a chain of actions that includes various links. With inadequate behavior, the severity of deviations in behavior often increases along the chain. Most often, incidents and crises can be prevented by intervening at the very beginning of the chain of behavior, using feedback or instructions.
   After making sure that the teenager does not interrupt the expanding chain of aggressive behavior, it is necessary to act quickly. Impending incidents and crises almost never disappear on their own if you take a wait-and-see attitude.
   The teenager receives information about what skills he needs. Incidents and crises often provide an opportunity to see which tasks are particularly difficult for some teenagers and which skills they lack. Using the concept of skills, it is very important at this point to explain the adolescent's behavior that triggered the incident or crisis.

7. I don’t consider myself, but other people think so. And they say the wrong things about me. And I don’t bother myself with this, I continue the path in life. And I believe in my destiny. That my life will change for the better. to dream.
8. I understand this definition as follows, Inadequate is a person whose behavior is not understood by the people around him, and the inadequate does not consider himself inadequate, but rather considers those around him to be inadequate and does not understand and does not want to share his way of thinking, style, behavior, values , outlook, hobbies. That is, the inadequate was simply unlucky in this case, he simply ended up in the wrong place, at the wrong time, in the wrong society where he was not interested. He is there like a white crow. A completely normal person is inadequate, he just has not yet found his entourage of associates, his place under the sun, he often feels bad where he is considered this inadequate, which is why he throws out a challenge to the public with his behavior, style, manners, or vice versa, quietly hide.

   Criteria:
   A peculiar style of clothing that you do not understand and would never wear.
   Hairstyle, or the absence of it at all, which you also don’t understand
   The way of thinking, what he says you consider nonsense or you don’t understand it at all
   Defiant, specific manners of behavior or their general absence at first glance, which you also do not understand or annoy you
   Sometimes the social circle is also incomprehensible personalities or the absence of this circle is also indistinct
   His hobbies or, as it were, their absence are also incomprehensible to you
   He seems to be alive in his peculiar, sometimes closed or open world, which is also not clear to you.

   That is, you do not understand him, he annoys you or you do not understand him, he is interesting to you.

   When you simply don't understand (don't want to understand) the inner world of this person, that's why he seems "inadequate" to you.
   And you don't have to label it. And it turns out like this: We see a speck in someone else's eye, but we don't notice a log in our own.

9. There are many of them, but the main indicator is either a brake or aggression .... the rest is in the dictionary.
10. Many have heard the term "inappropriate behavior" more than once and, without delving into the subtleties of this concept, always associate it with a violation of a person's mental activity. Simply put, we consider people who behave inappropriately as mentally ill or schizophrenics. To some extent, such a judgment is fair, but the problem is not how we call this or that manifestation of the disease of the people around us, but in our reaction and understanding of the need to provide timely assistance to such people. Agree that this is much more important and more humane in relation to the patient than labeling "schizophrenic", "psychopath" and others?

    So what is this inappropriate behavior, how is it expressed, how dangerous is it for the patient and others? Do I need to seek help from psychiatrists, and what results can be expected from treatment in case of inappropriate behavior of a person?

    The first thing to be aware of is that inappropriate behavior is a visible manifestation of existing or emerging serious mental illness. Also, one should not forget that the understanding of the term "inappropriate behavior" at the everyday level does not always correspond to the actual presence of any mental illness in the person in relation to whom we apply it. This is a very important and noteworthy aspect. The groundless, undeserved or thoughtless accusation of a person of inappropriate behavior can have very unpleasant, and sometimes unpredictable consequences.

11. Inadequate-If speaking, briefly a person is unbalanced and not understanding! Let's give an example, a person climbed onto the table and spits on everyone, etc. I hope you understand me and my thought.

A person, in addition to the five sense organs, has characteristics, as signs that speak of the level of development of his personality. These are: intellect, spirituality, will, psyche, mentality, talent, skills and abilities, appearance, etc.
We learn the degree of personality development through behavior.

We have compiled types of behavior that, in our opinion, clearly indicate the inadequacy of the individual. We do not evaluate behavior, we evaluate the psychosomatic symptoms of personality - signs of underdevelopment of the personality, which are manifested through behavior.

1. A person keeps animals in a city apartment: large dogs or many cats.
- Man from the world of animals. Such a person does not measure the purpose of the place and the manner of behavior. Doesn't know that the habitat of different creatures should be divided. He does not think that his animals can create serious problems for others.
Very often this is the realization of an unsatisfied maternal instinct.

2. A person is able to steal someone else's, capable of taking over and appropriating someone else's.
- such a person believes that they become the owner of things after this thing is in his hands and the method of taking possession does not matter to them. His consciousness is at the level of the Papuans of New Guinea.

3. A person scolds, scolds, insults and blames others.
Usually occurs in a state of emotional arousal and is more of a symptom
aggressiveness, irritability and dissatisfaction with the development of events against the background of the fact that a person is not able to critically evaluate himself and tries to convince everyone that others are to blame.

4. The person is lying. Equally: pretending, feigning.
- such a person lives in an unreal world and tries to settle others in it. In addition, planting delusions, he often tries to use a false situation in his favor.
Such people without a real image. They are amused by the distorted, perverted picture of the world.
They do not look in the face, but go behind the back. They say one thing, but do another and think - the third.

5. The person drinks or smokes.
is a sign of low self-esteem. Indifference to what he does. Does what he wants.
Is addicted in behavior, but does not know about it. Destroys itself.
Annoyed at the lack of doping.

6. A person beats others.
- such a person is at a very low animal level and usually has a distinctively animal, bodily development - this is when the body has physically developed at the expense of everything else. They usually state their arguments poorly, are not capable of creativity - they have a predatory nature. Especially unworthy among them are those who beat women and children. Those who beat their children, for example, believe that their children are their property and they have an undeniable right
use physical methods of education.

7. The person is religious.
- Believes in the secret, but not the obvious. Mystified. We inspire. His model of the world: the shepherd and the flock.
At a low level, such a person is not independent, he does not want to shape his own destiny, but prefers to obey the will of another - usually in his imagination of a higher being. He lives by the principle of repetition, similarity, dependence, expectation. Inclined to the principle of secondary existence. At a high level, religiosity is the result of a higher knowledge of the causality of being, and this can tear him away from reality, make him thin and vulnerable in nature.

8. Authoritarianism.
- a person has a desire to command and manage others. Usually without receiving indulgences from others. The thirst for power and the euphoria of gain is a strong feeling that is built on the satisfaction of selfishness. A person who knows power over others runs the risk of living in an egocentric world. The desire for power is stronger than other desires and passions: the passion for money, fame, gluttony and voluptuousness. The world and man are ruled, and those who have power ascribe to themselves the divine ordination. Usually they do not know the boundaries in this. arrange for others a dependent and defenseless position and can be very dangerous.

9. A man cuts down trees.
It's an example of a person who doesn't understand what they're doing. The company of such people is doomed, like the inhabitants of Easter Island.

10. Man goes hunting and killing animals.
- A person hunts either for food or for sport. If a person goes hunting without the need for food, this person is dangerous both for others and for himself - he can cross the line at any time and start shooting at himself or at people.
Usually a hunter-athlete realizes in himself the passion of a hunter or a predator.
Usually they do not want to hear anything about the moral side of the murder - they are cynical, like predators. Whoever robs another of the right to life, of course, will not leave him the right to vote.
The hunter believes that the animal is at the lowest unconscious stage of development (but it is not). In fact, there is no difference in nature and every form of life is equivalent.

11. A person feels the need to judge others. Not to condemn, namely to arrange a court with a sentence and execution with punishment.
Moreover, usually next to such a need is not the presence of guilt, but simply the difference in behavior, and sometimes the presence of another is enough.
Their court procedure is short, and the punishment is ritual and indicative.
Such people experience constant displeasure with everything and everyone and see the strengthening of discipline and order in the fear of others before punishment. And, of course, they only see themselves as the undisputed judge.

12. Man - openly shows his disrespect for the law and routine. (deviant behavior) Such a person himself is not organized inside and usually has an advantage over others in strength, which he wants to realize.

There are many other well-known types of inappropriate behavior, manias and phobias:
- a person does not take care of himself, is unclean or litters around;
- collects all sorts of junk and drags everything into his home;
- vandalism. prone to destruction. A person lives in another world and the world that surrounds him does not correspond to him, irritates him and he wants to destroy him. So people of chaos destroy the world of civilization.
-

Most of a person's behavior is motivated by his egoism and corresponds to the level of his mental and spiritual development.
Those with inappropriate behavior usually deny it. Their behavior seems normal to them and they give a lot of far-fetched reasons and excuses.

Inadequate - here inappropriate. And the answer to the question "inappropriate for what?" has many options. Basic: inappropriate to its highest and reasonable purpose.

Reviews

"In addition to the five sense organs, a person has characteristics, as signs that speak of the level of development of his personality."

The first sentence is the business card of the article.

What kind of "characteristics" does a person have besides five senses? I suspect that this is not a heuristic term of the author, but a banal typo. Confirm or refute me, Nikolai.

"Characteristics as signs" - how to understand this?

General conclusion: the beginning of the business card article is crumpled, the thought is slurred.

Nikolai, the man began to cut down trees, still with a stone axe! Probably, this is not the crime that dooms humanity, but the fact that the cut down areas of forests are not restored. Give Finland a chance - there is deforestation and new afforestation there!
"A society of such people" is stylistically illiterate. "Society of people"? The phrase should be brought to the norms of the Russian language, Nikolai.

The tenth point of your "characteristics", Nikolai, knocked me down:

“If a person walks around without a need for food, this person is dangerous both for others and for himself - he can cross the line at any time and start shooting at himself or at people.
Usually a hunter-athlete realizes in himself the passion of a hunter or a predator.

Bryaknuv, like a mallet in a copper basin, Nikolai, you declared dangerous maniacs of Russian classics: Turgenev, Aksakov, Nekrasov and hundreds of other excellent writers, politicians and ordinary readers.

What nonsense!

You confuse hunters and poachers, Nikolai! About the manic tendencies of hunters, I will not say anything, leaving this statement to your conscience.

I'm more than disappointed, Nikolai.

Thank you, the sixth point of your classification of human "characteristics" amused:

"A person beats others.
- such a person is at a very low animal level and usually has a distinctively animal, bodily development - this is when the body has physically developed at the expense of everything else.

Now I am protected from surprises: as soon as a "physically developed" groom comes to woo my daughter, I will take him away, but carefully, otherwise he will beat me too. :)

Your attitude towards hunters is subjective, Nikolai. You have little idea what a huge job they do to preserve the fauna of our forests and fields: they feed them in starvation, settle where the livestock has disappeared, carry out sanitary shooting of excessively bred foxes, wolves, rabies carriers.
Believe or check my words: NOT HUNTERS ARE THE CAUSE OF THE CATASTROPHIC DISAPPEARANCE OF WHOLE SPECIES OF ANIMALS AND BIRDS, BUT THE THOUGHTS OF USE OF CHEMISTRY AND THE EXPANSION OF HUMANS IN THE ENVIRONMENT.

I repeat, by indiscriminately accusing all hunters of inadequacy and declaring them potential killers, you insulted them all, including the famous hunters I named. It doesn't go through any gates.
