Causes and Methods of Treatment of Stupidity

Robbery is a rare mental health disorder in which people obsessively steal things. A person in this state can steal things that are not in use or necessary. A thief is so tempted to steal that it can be difficult to resist this desire. In some cases, a thief feels a strong thrill from theft and feels guilty or ashamed after committing theft. Medical experts have not determined the specific cause of the theft, but claim that it is related to biochemical and neurological abnormalities in the brain. Stealing can have serious legal consequences and psychological and emotional pain. Therefore, those who show signs of theft should receive medical treatment from a qualified medical professional and proceed with treatment through counseling. In this article, the cause and treatment process of kleptomania are described.

 

 

What's a thief?

A person who lives with a thief has a severe compulsion to steal things even though they are useless and unnecessary. Unlike theft crimes, people with theft do not need or value stolen goods, and sometimes throw them away or return them. At that time, the act of stealing can be thrilling, but shame and guilt can come. As a result, you can put a lot of effort into hiding your disabilities from your friends and family. Thieves are officially recognized mental health disorders, but they are very rare and occur only in about 0.3 to 0.6% of the population. Thieves are a form of impulse control disorder. People with these conditions cannot resist the urge, temptation, or desire to perform actions that may be harmful to others.In addition, these impulse control disorders include:

· Resistance Disorder (ODD)
· Intermittent Explosion Failure (IED)
· Disorder of Conduct (CD)
· Pyromania

Impulse control disorder affects men more often than women. However, theft has been reported to occur three times more frequently in women. People with theft may have other mental disorders such as anxiety, depression, or substance use disorder.

 

 

Why does it happen?

The root cause of theft has not been clearly identified even among medical experts. However, medical experts argue that schizophrenia is caused by biochemical and neurological abnormalities in the brain. For example, a person with a thief may have an imbalance between serotonin and dopamine, which are neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters are chemicals that enable communication between different areas of the brain. Unbalanced, the brain may not respond properly to impulses.Medical experts commonly claim that stress and trauma are potential causes of theft. In particular, it is said that psychological trauma at a young age can lead to the onset of theft and other impulse control disorders. Stress contributes to loss of impulse control and can worsen the condition, even if it does not directly cause theft. Genetics can also play a role. It has been reported that the same disability is more likely to occur in the presence of family members with theft.

 

 

Treatment and Management

There is no particular cure for theft. However, doctors generally perform treatment with a combination of psychotherapy and drugs. Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that is useful for the treatment of grit. CBT helps people understand and change their thoughts and actions. CBTs may include:

· Learn how to control impulses
· Development of healthy coping mechanisms
· Identifying and preventing triggers
· Stress Management
· a solution to a fundamental psychological problem

Doctors may recommend drugs to help manage theft. This includes selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), which act by increasing serotonin levels in the brain.

Some common SSRIs are as follows.

· Fluoxetine (Prozac)
· Sultraline (zoloft)
· Paroxetine (Paxil)
· Sitalopram (Celexa)

However, there are cases of SSRI that cause theft in people with other mental health disorders. Other drugs doctors can use to treat theft include mood stabilizers and drugs that reduce the urge of people with behavioral addiction.
