Abnormal Psychology (10-20-05)

The classroom is looking perfectly ordinary today. Professor Drusilla is sitting at her desk playing idly with a deck of cards and written on the board--whole and without any cracks on it--is an assignment.

Write a 100 word essay about what you've learned from the last class.

After you've turned it in, we'll begin discuss what you've learned.

There is a sign-in sheet on her desk.



OOC: We'll have separate threads for sign-in, essays, and discussion, as well as an OOC thread. As usual, due to the vagaries of time zones, everyone has until tomorrow to at least sign in and discussion can take...as long as it takes, basically.

Last week I learned that while dementia may be disabling, it may not necessarily be unpleasant. It is somewhat freeing to be untrammeled by memories of the past or worries of the future, but to exist only in the present. It is also somewhat alarming to discover that you are eternally lost, never quite certain of where you are or when or even whether the person you’re talking to is real or a memory or a true hallucination. I believe that I learned a great deal from my experience in terms of tolerance, although I do not remember many specifics.
