I think someone's had a bad trip - but then I'm a little ignorant of psychology --Doc Glasgow 00:36, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Oh, this is a real concept, courtesy of Erik Erikson. This is a bit of an essay, though, so...meh. No vote. ~~Shiri — Talk~~ 01:19, May 19, 2005 (UTC)
- Either that (the Doc's diagnosis) or (s)he has been doing too much lucid dreaming. From the article: "In other words, a person can become confused." It happened to the author, and the confusion led the article to veer from encyclopedic. Delete, no substantial content here to keep or merge. But I note that there is no properly-capitalized Identity crisis (psychology) article linked from the Identity crisis disambiguation page, which also lists a DC Comics miniseries and a Star Trek-based e-book. And there's no "identity crisis" mention in the Psychology article. "What links here" shows there is a Identity (social science) article which links to the Identity crisis disambig page. The term is used enough in movies, television, books, magazines, et cetera (plus the I(ss) article) that we should probably list it as a requested article if nobody jumps on this VfD.

- As above, an article with a name similar to this should exist, but written better than its current form... Abstain on the vote itself - depends whether someone knowledgeable in this field would have ANY material to work with from the current content. Stoive 02:38, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Make it a requested article. There isn't much there to work with now, but it should exist. Sairen42 05:38, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedily deleted as vandalism. This is one of a string of articles the author created during a vandalism spree (see User talk:Mythrandia). This article qualified as an indisputably bad-faith addition. SWAdair | Talk 05:49, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
