EC Psychology And Psychiatry

Life's conduct and sometimes behavior involving or implying often taking a risk.

This disposition or way of being can occur in certain subjects, in which it takes on an addictive mode: It seems difficult for them to resist involvement or implementation in improbable or dangerous situations or to get out of a rut, like cutting bans after a breakup and to stop to commit unusual act.

Some people consider that it's important to take risks in life and can't support the monotony  (For current example: going to participate in a fight).

At certain existential stage, violent reaction or compartmental raptus can be committed, may be as consequence of minor incident or be realized, in an unusual way, as conjuring spell of an unacceptable.

They act without prior reflection, allowing the instinctual reaction to emerge instead of the elaborate think or strategic mental plane's elaboration.

Acting is, not necessarily committed in a context of frustration, of flouted passion or in justified failure.

Beyond a boring feeling, rather when the identity status of the subject is concerned.

Different modalities are related to the mentality of people for which the way to get risk-taking is easily common, and to prime yourself for being able and willing to take on bigger and bigger risks in a constant research of sensations.

The most marked risk-taking may depend on the age, which concerns in particular the teenagers or the adolescents. Certain people adopt the common thread during all time of life, as if each period implied as a goal the necessity of reinforce identity, whatever the means: a kind of personal challenge to overcome. Relational expression in competitive sport, risky endurance behavior, and now, for instance, in speediness with sky, extreme riding, intensive motorbike or MTB riding, wave surf riding. Horseback riding; get involved in dangerous games.

Outdoor sports in hard conditions to access a triumph in surpassing oneself until invulnerability dive from a great height, cross oceans or reach mountains’ peaks. Heroically with a mixed feeling of both freedom and strong commitment. The flow of the time is modified, distorted. The question of the relationship to time is very topical. Even the Space/Time theory could be requested. Isn't there somewhere a (drive) challenge... to death?

The search for thrills is particularly evident among adolescents, some of whom do not hesitate to resort to dangerous demonstrations to prove their mastery to others, for instance in certain groups of young’s (another register: that one of domination).

A contrary, certain teenagers will become inhibited on a relational, emotional attitude or even in the social approach, on a background of cognitive weakness. They could becoming withdrawn.

We have also to highlighted Warriors, intrepid conquerors, and, a contrary, lovers of prudence, imbued of immobile or programmed behavior, of ritualized comportment, curled up on places and habits, resistant to change as to decision-making, often egotistical, about whom we would speak in ORLANDO's Congress.

If Conduct Disorder is mentioned in 312.8 in the D.S.M. V Nomenclature, in the frame of the opportunity of my study, it's to precise that: Their behaviors fall, of course, into main grouping, but as non aggressive conduct that causes properly loss of damage, not necessary deceitfulness or theft but more often subtill triggers, elaborately curved or bypass, than violation of rules. All depend of the finality of their existential research, even, sometimes, the dimension of ordeal.

In all the epochs, some risk's taker have been famous but, at the phylogenetical level. the notable development of the cerebellum, and of its connection with the brain would have reenforced the sensation of his proper corporeal or bodily life, which could be named “interoception” and the Greek ephebes were among the first ones.

People with mental or psychic disorders as dysthymia or schizophrenic states are not included in this:

• Some risk's takers are linked or are depending of the consequence of a trauma. May be to repair the damage, what they have endured for certain.
• Different Patterns are to distinguished: sensation seeking and opposition between sensations and emotions, as well as mastery of libidinal excitation or even ordalic behaviour. And it could be repetitive after an initiative experience.
• The definition is the active search a danger without precaution and it could be repetitive after an initiative experience. It appears that some get a low level of repetition, of cortical arousal. whom who seems unconsciously depending of the libidinal object, in reason of a default of « narcissistic seating.
