Unit 2 covers a lot of disorders. The broad family of anxiety problems (Anxiety Disorders, Obsessive-Compulsive and Related Disorders, & Trauma and Stressor-Related Disorders) alone represents a huge portion of the disorders that people experience. Hopefully, the readings and supplementary material give you a good sense of what these disorders are like, but I would like to see how much you understand these disorders.
In this discussion, you are applying the knowledge you gained from chapters 5 & 14 and demonstrating you have more than book knowledge but a true understanding of these disorders. I want to see that you understand how much these disorders can potentially impact a person’s life.
Write a discussion post selecting at least one disorder covered in chapter 5 or 14. Describe what it would be like to have the disorder. What types of things would you think and feel? What activities would be impaired? How would your life be different now if you had the disorder? What would other people think of you? What types of myths do people believe about the disorder? Would you try to seek treatment? What factors would get in the way of you pursuing treatment? Why do you think it’s important for people to have a better understanding of this specific disorder?
