Obviously, this condition should be included among themental diseases and out of ethics.

Basically, all moral vices are related to ethics until they havenot passed the normal limits, and only moral trainers shouldtreat them. But when they are abnormal, they are considered asa disease, and out of subject of ethic. Excessive envies, excessiveprides, excessive spites, excessive blatancies, and such like areall included in this part.

. ... يَحْسَبُونَ كُلَّ صَيْحَةٍ عَلَيْهِمْ‌ ..

They think every cry is against them.. [1]
