Vanderpoolism

Vanderpoolism

Vanderpoolism is a rare, psychosocial contagion disorder triggered by prolonged exposure to an individual carrying the Vanderpool Trait (VPT). The condition is not genetic or infectious in the traditional sense—it spreads through behavioral mimicry and neurological stress response.

Cause:
Researchers believe Vanderpoolism is caused by repeated exposure to highly irregular behavioral patterns that overstimulate the mirror-neuron system, leading to maladaptive neural rewiring.

Transmission:
• Close or repeated social contact
• High emotional or environmental stress
• Prolonged exposure (hours to weeks)

Symptoms:
• Sudden personality shifts
• Extreme or irrational behavior
• Compulsive decision-making
• Loss of social filters
• Oscillation between overconfidence and confusion
• Uncharacteristic risk-taking or isolation

Progression:
Symptoms usually begin subtly (mild odd behavior) and can escalate into marked abnormality if exposure continues.

Diagnosis:
Clinical observation + behavioral history. Brain imaging may show temporary dysregulation in the prefrontal cortex.

Treatment:
• Immediate removal from the Vanderpool exposure source
• Cognitive behavioral therapy
• Sensory grounding techniques
• Symptoms typically resolve within weeks if untreated exposure stops

Prognosis:
Good. Most patients return to baseline with no lasting damage—though brief residual weirdness may persist.
