abba61 is a mental disorder such named after specific DNA strand of the abba virus. [b][u]Symptoms:[/u][/b]Those who suffer from abba61 experience vivid hallucinations and begin to loose the ability of understanding what is reality and what is not. Victims often go insane due to the loss of reality. It occurs in four stages. [u][i]Stage 1:[/i][/u] The mildest of cases, individuals will frequently complain of hearing or seeing things that do not make logical sense. They will often be mislabeled as simply paranoid. [i][u]Stage 2:[/u][/i] A more developed level of abba61, individuals will begin seeing "apparitions" and hallucinations. Many victims are mislabeled as simply sufferers of other mental diseases. [u][i]Stage 3:[/i][/u] An advanced onset of abba61, afflicted persons will begin to loose track of reality, often unable to carry on conversations. However, they can still somewhat recognize some things as set in reality and will desperately try to anchor themselves to such objects as loved ones or childhood mementos. [u][i]Stage 4:[/i][/u] The final stage of abba61, victims completely loose all sense of reality. They are unable to decern what is real and what is not. Thus creating two subcategories of stage 4. The first subcategory known as the [i]Mattheis Camp[/i], is made up of victims who chose to reject everything as unreal figments of their imaginations. Those who find themselves in this camp, often shut down and become inert. These people also are much safer to contain and deal with as they do not move. The second subcategory is the [i]Fedors Camp[/i]. These patients on the other hand accept everything as reality and often interact with their surroundings. Depending on the nature of their hallucinations they can be incredibly dangerous and require high level security. Containing these individuals can prove difficult as adrenaline spikes can lead to seemingly unfathomable feats by the victims. In rare cases, those who are in this group can have benign hallucinations and despite having no grounding in reality are only describable as docile and euphoric. [b][u]Treatment:[/u][/b] At the current time, only two forms of treatment are available to abba61 patients. Those being exposure to beta radiation to the cerebral cortex, and a series of low dosages of Fermium [Atomic Number 100]. The beta radiation can stave off the later stages of abba61 if applied during stages 1 and 2, but can have the possibility of leading to other mental disorders. It can also reverse the effects of abba61 depending on the patient's genetic makeup. The Fermium injections are a highly risky treatment for severe cases of abba61, and can lead to a myriad of other metal and physical issues such as Alzheimer's and paralysis. However, it does give the patient a grip on reality and has a chance of reverting the condition to a stage 2 or 3 level permanently. Despite the odds, patients that have an unusually strong imagination and a high determination factor, along with those who are deeply entwined with another human being have a much higher chance of overcoming abba61 on their own than those who do not. The reason for this phenomenon is unknown, and these people are considered extremely lucky.
