Aptos, Ca psychologist: Time for President Obama to seek appropriate therapy for narcissism? Is Obama a socialist/ statist with out of control spending problems?

In the 2010 elections, American voters rejected Obama policies overwhelmingly. Then in Seoul, Korea twenty world leaders rejected Obama’s policy to devalue the dollar by printing $600 billion in funny money. Concerning the elections, President Obama thinks he merely has a communication problem. Wow! How about a reality check for President Obama?

Might President Obama be in need of a psychiatrist or psychologist? Individuals who have major difficulties often go to psychiatrists for medications and to psychologists for appropriate therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy can be highly helpful for a wide range of issues.

Does Obama need to get back in touch with basic spiritual/ religious values — such as is there anything bigger or more important than Obama?

How narcissistic is President Obama?
This is based on the latest draft of the proposed Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V).

1. Compulsively: On a 0 to 4 scale what is Obamaâ€s tendency to act according to a narrow and unchanging idea and expect that everyone should do so?

ObamaCare was rammed through with no attempt to get Republicans or independents behind it. President Obama could have gotten at least a few Republican votes. They got zero.

The Tea Party movement arose in opposition to what and how the health care debate was managed. Health care reform had to occur and was in crises — according to Obama. No fixes other than a 3,000 page health care reform bill would work. Obama appears to live by his fatherâ€s narrow ideas of colonial socialism/Marxism and that an elite should make decisions.
Overall Rating: 3 Compulsivity is Extremely Descriptive of President Obama

2. Negative Emotionality: On a 0 to 4 scale does Obama show a wide range of negative emotions (guilt, shame, worry, anxiety, worry) that manifest in behaviors?

Obamaâ€s foreign policy consists of a series of apologies to the world as to the failings of the United States. The pictures of Obama bending over to kiss the hands of middle eastern dictatorships shows his apologetic stance. Obama has said on multiple occasions that America is responsible for most of the ills of the world. In Obamaâ€s view, it is time that other nations take their rightful place and inherit the position that the United States has imposed on other nations. There is no exceptionalism to America – if there ever was any — in Obamaâ€s view. We are a failed nation and should continue to fail.

Overall Rating: 3 Negative Emotionality is Extremely Descriptive of President Obama

3. Antagonism: On a 0 to 4 scale, does Obama exhibits diverse manifestations of antipathy toward others, and a correspondingly exaggerated sense of self-importance?

Given that his only real job experience is as a community organizer he has an exaggerated sense of self importance. He seems to believe that he knows far more than others and hence what he thinks is what should happen.

4. Introversion: On a 0 to 4 scale how does President Obama rate Withdrawal from other people, ranging from intimate relationships to the world at large; restricted affective experience and expression; limited hedonic capacity
Overall rating: 2 = Moderately Descriptive

5.Disinhibition: Diverse manifestations of being present- (vs. future- or past-) oriented, so that behavior is driven by current internal and external stimuli, rather than by past learning and consideration of future consequences

Obamaâ€s says he is a statist only because of the present crises. Present circumstances force him to advocate for more, bigger, more costly government. How to solve the financial problems? Grow the government. Impose the largest deficit ever on future generations. Is this reckless? Irresponsible? Highly so.
Overall rating: 3 = Extremely Descriptive of President Obama

Therapy is something individuals seek when their world becomes unmanageable or unbearable. From the perspective of voters looking at the public actions of the leader of the free world, how healthy and helpful are President Obama’s acitons? Not healthy or helpful.

It is time to rein President Obama’s effect on the world and on the direction that America takes.

Who or what religious or spiritual beliefs direct Obama’s behavior. No longer does Obama does sit in the pews of Rev. Wright’s church. In fact, he does not go to any church regularly. I heard that President Obama finds the call to Islamic prayer to be sweet, beautiful words.

Today an Islamic radical was found not guilty of murder of 200+ charges. The Islamic radical terrorist was given the protections of the American criminal system and tried as though he were merely a criminal — not as a terrorist. The man was found guilty of conspiracy but not of the deaths all who died as a result of the conspiracy. Trying terrorists in American courts is a failed Obama policy.

Obama has failed in multiple ways as a leader of America and as a leader of the free world. As a twig is bent…. so grows the tree. It is time for some major character re-shaping for our narcissistic young President. We must reject ObamaCare in its entirety. For the sake of future generations we must eliminate the huge deficit imposed by Obama, Nancy Pelosi and the Democratic party.

We as a county have certain goals: limited government, choice by The People not by the government. A balanced budget. Choice kept at the local level.

Hiow do we get our President to achieve the goals that Americans seek?

Maybe Obama needs – for six months – an anti-depressant to help stabilize his mood, sense of failure, despondent feelings about the election. So, perhaps Obama needs a competent psychiatrist for appropriate medications. And to change his basic thinking and behavior problems? Looks like President Obama could benefit from cognitive behavioral therapy. For example, teach Obama some ways to stop negative thinking about America and instead engage in positive thinking about what America can and will achieve.

Is this written tongue in cheek? No. I think President Obama indeed needs to drastically change his cognitive beliefs and his behaviors.
