Obama Complex Disorder. Proposed for inclusion in DSM-6 and described as follows:
1. Recurrent and persistent thoughts, urges, or impulses that are experienced, relating to ex President Barack Obama.
2.The individual attempts vainly to ignore or suppress such thoughts, urges, or images, or to neutralize them with some other thought or action (i.e., by performing a compulsion).
3. Repetitive behaviours (e.g., hand washing, ordering, checking) or mental acts (e.g., praying, counting, repeating words silently)or constantly evoking the name Obama when discussing completely unrelated topics that the individual feels driven to perform in response to an obsession or according to rules that must be applied rigidly.
4.The behaviours or mental acts are aimed at preventing or reducing anxiety or distress, or preventing some dreaded event or situation; however, these behaviours or mental acts are not connected in a realistic way with what they are designed to neutralize or prevent, or are clearly excessive.
