AP Psych F, '16 Disorders Pre-Thoughts by Amy Armstrong https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders en-us 2016-11-14 06:33:59 UTC 2026-02-15 10:44:02 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Clouds.png Why is there not a global standard for diagnosing mental health issues? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137272656 2016-11-14 06:37:00 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137272656 I think mental illness is a major problem because some people with minor problems may be treated dramatically different over the rest of their life. Mental illness should not be taken lightly so we need to innovate in our treatments for mental illness. aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137272687 2016-11-14 06:37:25 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137272687 If you are clinically depressed, can you overcome it? What if you don't take meds / take too much? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137272805 2016-11-14 06:39:13 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137272805 How do you know if you're depressed? What is it so hard to care about yourself? I feel like I don't care about myself, lately. I don't understand the point of anything. Is it just my mentality? Is something wrong with me? I just want to know what. I don't have any motivation or will to do anything about me. Sometimes I just want to be forgotten. To leave. Not die, but leave. I don't know. I hate the expectations. Is it anxiety? An attention disorder? Depression? Is there a name for it? That's why I'm looking forward to this unit. To try and find some answers. Hopefully. aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137272836 2016-11-14 06:39:31 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137272836 Are abusive behaviors / traits genetic? Why is it that some people are addicted to abuse? To pain? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137273033 2016-11-14 06:42:03 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137273033 What would it be like to have some of these disorders, like dissociative identity disorder? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137273091 2016-11-14 06:42:51 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137273091 I'm most apprehensive about this unit in AP Psych. [Personal experience of diagnosis] I hope people will be more accepting than what I've experienced. I am tired of teachers who use "OCD" as an adjective or use "schizophrenia" as a joke. [Teachers identified] aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137273120 2016-11-14 06:43:17 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137273120 I think mental disorders are serious and especially when someone has to go through any sort of disorder or when a relative or friend struggles. I also feel that it isn't right to joke about these disorders especially when they don't know what it is and how people suffer everyday. aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137273251 2016-11-14 06:45:25 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137273251 Can someone with a mental disorder pass it on to their offspring? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137453210 2016-11-14 17:09:42 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137453210 How do you know if a mental disorder is forming? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137453283 2016-11-14 17:09:52 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137453283 I've had friends with disorders such as anorexia that were diagnosed as mental complexes. They both recovered and are doing very well now but it had a big impact on the way I think. I try not to dwell on it because it is frustrating for me. aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137453379 2016-11-14 17:10:05 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137453379 What is borderline personality disorder and how is it diagnosed? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137453961 2016-11-14 17:11:22 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137453961 How in depth are we going to go? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137454032 2016-11-14 17:11:33 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137454032 What exactly is schizophrenia? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137454171 2016-11-14 17:11:51 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137454171 What is the scale on which depression can be measured? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137454286 2016-11-14 17:12:08 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137454286 I hope I don't cry in class seeing all these pictures on the PPT. aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137454455 2016-11-14 17:12:33 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137454455 The topic isn't new to me. I hope that while discussing mental illness, no one will make fun / laugh about it. Will this be a safe space? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137454529 2016-11-14 17:12:42 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137454529 Are those people who have mental disorders aware of what they're doing when they're losing control? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137454767 2016-11-14 17:13:18 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137454767 Is there any way to prevent your child from suffering from depression? Or is it just genetic? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137455058 2016-11-14 17:13:48 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137455058 I wanna know how depression effects people and why people tend to become depressed. aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137455344 2016-11-14 17:14:17 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137455344 How does someone deal with schizophrenia? aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137455494 2016-11-14 17:14:32 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137455494 Oh ... I attempted suicide in [date] to deal with depression. aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137455706 2016-11-14 17:14:52 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137455706 I am interested in becoming a therapist or psychiatrist so I am looking forward to learning about disorders and how to help people. aarmstrong2 https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137456931 2016-11-14 17:17:14 UTC https://padlet.com/aarmstrong2/psychf16disorders/wish/137456931
