I don't think #8 is just limited to Otakus, as they are experienced by normal people as well (I know people who've played the nice guy part and fail a lot, and they're not really Otakus). If people are experiencing #1- 7 (and possibly # 9), then they seriously need a break from your hobbies and set a clear line between what's real and not, and I don't think its hard to distinguish the difference with what happens in one's favorite TV anime and real life when it comes to something serious.
I think the fundamental problem stems from a person's personality, on how he tries to deal with challenges in life based on what he thinks is the best solution to dealing with adversity (methods derived from a delusional belief in an escapist form of media, or an occult, or experience for example) rather than one's choice of hobbies.
