Schizophrenia- A Beautiful Mind

Disturbing- An example of this is when John is in the mental facility and he digs into his arm trying to find the chip that his delusions had inserted into his arm.

Maladaptive- An example of this is when John is talking random jibberish around the punch bowl in the beginning of the movie.  Nobody knew what he was talking about so his speech was pointless.

Atypical- An example of this  is when John runs away from his delusions during his speech in front of a large group of people.  This is atypical because it was an out of the ordinary action.

Unjustifiable- When John talks to the air around him this is unjustifiable.  He cannot tell them who he is talking to because these people he talks to are not real and were not real at any time.
