Abnormal Psychology (11-10-05)

The classroom looked bright and shiny, Cameron has opened some of the windows and was leaning against the desk in front of the room. As soon as everyone took a seat, he spoke up.

"Alright, listen up boys and girls. Crazy Squid Lady Professor Drusilla couldn't make it today for whatever reason crazy people have, so I'll be holding this class. I've got an assignment for you all, which I hope you will appreciate and put to good use. I'll open discussion and I hope that by the end of the class you'll all have sufficient material to write an essay on the topic."

He clapped his hands together and even despite his bad mood as of late, he grinned at everyone. "Topic today is actually our own much feared beloved teacher. I want you all to come up with one or two, or however many mental illnesses that you think she is suffering from and explain to me why. By the end of the class, you should have sufficient material to write a short essay on the topic. Extra credits for the person who comes up with the most illnesses."

"I know a lot of people are very weary of this class, so take this opportunity to relax, sit back and speak your mind." With a nod and a wave of his hand, he indicated that the floor was now open for discussions.

Schizophrenia is a form of psychotic disorder or psychosis, meaning it is a disorder that causes people to have difficulty interpreting reality. Individuals develop a marked change in their thinking, perceptions and behaviour as evidenced by the presence of a combination of the following symptoms: hallucinations, delusions or false beliefs, disorganized speech, disorganized behaviour, apathy and social withdrawal. Talking to the doll and expecting it to answer is a delusion. Her speech can be disorganized at times. Anyone who hangs with a squid or in a basement has some social withdrawal issues. Her behavior is erratic at times. I’m not sure what is up with the doll’s eye being poked out.
