What is wrong with salad fingers?

-sigh- I've heard this and asked this to myself so many times, but never got a clear answer. There are a ton of theories to why Salad Fingers is the way he is. I'm assuming that within all of them, he has to have some sort of mental illness, like schizophrenia and/or multiple personality disorder. I'll share a couple of my theories with you.

There is one theory that his schizophrenia is so bad that he is hallucinating most of his life, the objects around him, the world he lives in, and pretty much everything.

The theory I believe in, and what most SF fans believe is that the Great War as he calls it, has pretty much created a wasteland out of his home and has messed with his head, causing him multiple mental illnesses.

Does dimitri end up with rose in spirit bound?

I'm guessing you mean Spirit Bound, the fifth book in the Vampire Academy book series. So I'll answer for that:

No, in Spirit Bound Dimitri is so upset over what he did to Rose in Shadow Kiss that he believes it would be better for them not to be together because he feels so guilty. Although in the end of the book Dimitri does defend Rose and fight off the guardians for her so we know he does still love her even though he's trying to deny it for her sake.

But no, they never officially get back together, although it's quite obvious they both love each other.
