    In present times, we have been struck with the overwhelming epidemic of anxiety and depression. It has begun to be realized as an issue all over the United States and thousands of Americans are suffering from the disorders everyday. Although it takes on a harsh tone, out of the three satires chosen, “Panic Attacking Your Way to a Better Sleep” by Matt Ott is the most effective satirical piece because of the use of enumeratio, rhetorical questions, and apophasis, its paradoxical structure, and it’s ironic analysis. Anxiety disorders are the most common illness in the United States. These disorders were first recognized in the 1980’s as a mental disorder by the American Psychiatric Association.

    Introduction Recently it has become more evident that people with lower intelligence may have a higher risk of developing a mental illness. Research has shown that children and adolescents who score lower on psychometric tests of intelligence are at a greater risk of having contact with psychiatric services and being admitted to the hospital for psychiatric care (Gale, Hatch, Batty & Deary, 2009). Several different psychiatric diagnoses have been looked at in this context, such as schizophrenia (Gunnell, Harrison, Rasmussen, Fouskakis, &Tynelius, 2002), depression, bipolar disorder and other non-affective psychoses (Zammit, et al., 2004). Cognitive epidemiology research has looked at childhood IQ as predictors for health later in life,

    What I learned from the reading of chapter 6 in the book They Say I Say was that an opposite point of view is always a good way to develop a longer conversation. Although I used to think that adding the perspective of a naysayer could make my writing to be less persuasive and could mislead the reader from my main idea, I realized that everybody has their own opinion and nobody would have the same thinking than I. Therefore, I was able to understand that in order to create a more interesting research paper for most reader, I would have to add other’s perspective to my writing that would make my claims to have more credibility and be more interesting even if a disagree with such claims. A perspective from a naysayer would apply very well to my

    The Process of Reflection The process of reflection is central to clinical supervision. Launer (2003) describes external and internal factors in supervision whereby clinical practice and sharing skills are external and reflection is an ‘internal conversation.’ Brunero & Stein-Parbury (2008) discussed the effects of clinical supervision in nursing staff and argued that self-reflection generates a sense of self-awareness and knowledge to the individual. Supervisees or students may be asked what happened during a clinical event, how they felt, the implications of their actions and what they would do differently if faced with the same situation.

    Overall, I had a very positive experience during this first week of my mental health clinical rotation. When I went into the hospital, I was a little apprehensive because of the stories the orientation nurse told us about the different units. However, when I got onto the unit, I realized that these children were the same as other kids, but they had different mental health issues from their past experiences or their genetics. Most of the kids on this unit did not do anything to become the way they are.

  • Theories In Psychodynamic Psychology

    346 Words  | 2 Pages

    Theories in psychodynamic psychology explain that specific phobias develop because patients have impulses that are unacceptable in their culture or social setting, and they attempt to repress these impulses. To be more specific, Sigmund Freud proposed that phobias develop because of an unresolved oedipal conflict. According to Freud's theory, an oedipal conflict is a developmental conflict that develops during the third stage of Freud's psychosexual development stages. During this stage, a conflict emerges regarding the relationship between father, mother, and child. The conflict revolves around the sexual impulses that the child has toward the parent of the opposite gender, the mother in this case, and the hostile impulses that the child has

  • Psychology Reflection

    Psychology is defined as “the scientific study of the mind and behavior” (Introduction to Psychology, 2015). Psychology provides an overview of biology and behavior, sensation and perception, learning, memory, intelligence, language, motivation, emotion, abnormal psychology, and therapy (PSY 102 Course Syllabus, 2018, pg 1). Because psychology allows for a better understanding of how the mind and body work, this knowledge can be beneficial for any field of study or career. The theoretical and practical understanding of the basics of psychology can help with decision-making, critical thinking, stress management, time management, better understanding of others, improving communication, and even achieving goals and objectives, all components that allow someone to be more successful throughout their life. Throughout this course I hope to gain a greater understanding of historical and theoretical perspectives of human behavior and development (PSY 102 Course Syllabus, 2018, pg 2).

    Over the course of this winter quarter, I have learned in my class of Psychology of Wellness how to incorporate mindfulness into my daily life. The definition of mindfulness is considered an art. In the book of the Fully Present, the authors Susan Smalley and Diana Winston transmitted their wisdom on how to learn, practice and cultivate this art. According to the mentioned authors, they defined mindfulness as “the art of observing your physical, emotional, and mental experiences with deliberate, open, and curious attention” (2010, p.78). This definition shared by the authors is simple, but it communicates what are the characteristics that an individual needs to consider when it comes to being mindful.
