Stealing addiction syndrome

People who have a stealing disease never show up for the purpose of getting rich. Even very powerful people can be addicted to stealing, such as King Henry IV of France.

A few years ago, in a luxury lingerie store in London that regular customers were movie superstars like Madonna, Nicole Kidman . happened a strange theft. A 30-year-old man dressed very luxuriously and rightly, seemed to buy a gift for his wife. He told the shopkeeper to come to the end of the store to pick out the clothes and take advantage of that opportunity to whirl the women's underwear worth about $ 15,000.

The mental pathology department in Russia has recorded a case of only stealing fur hats due to sexual stimulation. At the medical examination, the police discovered a collection of fur hats. The investigators were unaware of the cult of fétichisme, so were surprised when the thief did not sell a hat, and all the hats were as fresh as the shop. The thief even expressed his annoyance: 'What to sell? My salary is quite good '.

People who actually get stealing never steal to get rich. Even people with very high power also steal. For example, the king of France Hen IV swirled the trifles of his subjects. At that time, science did not know about a psychological disease called ' kleptomane ' (stealing conflict). Therefore, if the thief is not a king or a powerful person, even if he is sick, he will be severely punished.

Today, thanks to the achievements of medicine, when rich people and movie stars, musicians or sports people are caught on the whirlwind in the store, everyone understands that they have a disorder. some disorder.

Animals also steal

Those who live regularly in a small hotel in the UK complain about their loss of mobile phones. The thief did not take anything else. Money and valuable things are still intact, only the mobile phones have not flown.

The hotel owner opened the investigation and found a stolen mobile phone store just under . under her bed. It turned out that the culprit was a skunk in her home. It is true that a " person " who has a disease of impulse steals because of a skunk, a cell phone is a completely useless thing.

There are rats that steal watches, fake teeth in cups of water and coins in the wallet. Americans call them ' barter rats ' because they often observe thieves coming back to the "scene" and leave something in place of something that is spotted.

Once, a rats had spared all the chestnuts contained in the ore miners' coffers and then filled them with small stones. A gold digger found a table of natural gold on his desk instead of a forgotten shell. He followed the little mouse and found a circuit containing gold.

A psychological disease

Stealing impulses are a natural phenomenon. And when a wealthy person makes a meaningless theft in the store, that is just a clear illustration of showing the secret mechanisms in his psychological nature. Unlike ordinary theft, for people who have staggered impulse disease, whirling is a call, an instinct he can't resist. In short, it is a disease.

High-end fashion stores in the US such as Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, Praza, Burberry's are all badly damaged by theft. Only very rich people come to these stores. Not long ago, at the ' Barney's ' store, it was discovered that a famous female artist came out of the door, her shoulder covered with an untimely mink coat worth nearly $ 100,000. The guard team leader of another reputable store said that within half a year, they had arrested three supermodels.

In the list of celebrities with stealing diseases caught by the Olympic champion female, gymnastics Olga Korbut, Miss America Bess Maierson and tennis star Jennifer Capriati. Recently, England was excitedly discussing the trouble that happened to marquis James Churchill, the descendant of former British Prime Minister Wilston Churchill. This aristocrat swirled two pairs of expensive glasses and perfume in a luxury store.

The name kleptomane (stealing impulse) originates from the Greek: " klepto " is stealing and " mania " is insane. The word appeared in 1890. Scientists agreed at the time that this was a mass-centered mental disorder. But recent studies show that it is only a rare phenomenon. It is of no use to people who really get sick of stealing things completely. The important thing for them is not the result of the theft but the process itself.

American psychiatrist Grant, who specializes in shoplifters' psychology, claims that he has found a cure for kleptomane. Strictly speaking, this is not a new composition. Previously, it was applied to make alcohol drinkers lose their intoxicating habits. To try this product, patients need to be included. Therefore, there is an advertisement in the newspaper: 'Need to recruit thieves in the store'.
