Self-Injurious Behavior
This document discusses self-injurious behaviors (SIB), providing examples like cutting, substance abuse, and head-banging. SIB is defined as intentionally injuring one's body tissue without suicidal intent. It is described as a coping mechanism for difficult feelings like sadness or emptiness, though only a temporary solution. Those who engage in SIB often experience abuse, low self-esteem, and were discouraged from emotional expression. The document outlines signs of SIB and recommends treating students with respect, alternative outlets, and seeking medical help for severe cases.

Borderline personality disorder
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is characterized by instability in interpersonal relationships and impulsive behavior. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) effectively treats BPD by balancing acceptance and change strategies. DBT aims to help clients build lives worth living and teaches skills like mindfulness, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and emotion regulation to manage intense emotions and improve relationships. Treatment involves eliminating life-threatening behaviors, therapy-interfering behaviors, and focusing on quality of life.
Causes of low self
There are three major causes of low self-esteem in recovery: instability, insignificance, and immorality. Instability refers to feeling a lack of stability or control in one's life. Insignificance relates to feeling embarrassed or judged for past addictions. Immorality stems from feelings of guilt over past actions during addiction. To help boost self-esteem, it is important to listen without judgment, show affection, and avoid dwelling on the past. Building self-esteem also involves paying attention to one's needs, surrounding oneself with supportive people, learning new skills, and engaging in hobbies. Changing negative self-talk patterns can further improve self-image.

Sex and pornography addiction are real problems facing an increasing number of people from adolescents to adults, men and women. This presentation goes over some of the issues that may have started or be maintaining the addiction and provides a few tools to help clients start moving toward recovery.A synopsis of bipolar disorder and the feelings
Bipolar disorder is a mental illness characterized by periods of extreme depression and mania. It affects about 3-5% of the population worldwide. While there is a genetic component, having bipolar parents does not guarantee a bipolar child. Treatment involves medication and therapy to manage the mood cycles, which can last from hours to years in duration. Living with bipolar disorder strains relationships and impacts work, school, finances and family life due to the unpredictable shifts in mood and behavior.

Trauma Training 19 March Nottingham YOT
This document outlines the session plan for a workshop on trauma and young people led by Dr. Michelle Carr. The session plan includes introductions, defining trauma, how trauma can affect children of different ages, gender differences in trauma, and effective ways of working with trauma. Tools that can be used include various questionnaires, therapies like trauma-focused CBT, and online resources. Formulation is discussed as understanding the predisposing, precipitating, perpetuating and protective factors relating to a person's trauma.
Borderline Personality Disorder In Adolescents
The document discusses borderline personality disorder (BPD) in adolescents. It provides the DSM-IV criteria for BPD and notes differences in how BPD presents in adolescent girls versus boys. Common comorbidities are listed. Theories on the causes of BPD include biosocial and biological factors. Dialectical behavior therapy and medication are discussed as treatment options. Suggestions are made for further research on long-term prognosis, origins, dealing with stigma, and different treatment types for BPD in adolescents.
Personality Presentation
Personality disorders are enduring patterns of behavior that deviate from cultural norms and cause impairment. The document discusses six specific personality disorders - borderline, antisocial, schizoid, histrionic, dissociative identity disorder, and narcissistic personality disorder - and provides their key signs and symptoms. Examples of people who exhibited traits of each disorder are also mentioned. The potential causes of personality disorders discussed are genetics, environmental factors, and brain abnormalities.
Types of abuse
There are four main types of child abuse: physical, neglect, sexual, and emotional. Physical abuse involves harming a child's body, neglect is the failure to meet a child's basic needs, sexual abuse includes inappropriate sexual acts, and emotional abuse damages a child psychologically. Abuse often occurs at home with an abuser, abused child, and crisis triggering the abusive behavior. The abuser is usually a parent or caretaker experiencing stress, while children under two and those with disabilities are most vulnerable.
Developing good mental healthh
This document discusses developing good mental health. It states that mental health is equally as important as physical health for achieving goals and responsibilities. A mentally healthy person can cope with life's challenges and problems in a reasonable manner while still enjoying good times. Good mental health means having a positive self-concept, taking responsibility for one's actions, relating well to others, adapting to change, facing disappointments squarely, and accepting criticism openly. Factors like heredity, physical health, environment, and upbringing can influence mental health. Developing good habits, flexible disposition, strong family support, and practicing self-care promote positive mental wellness.
Oppositional defiant disorder (odd)
Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) is characterized by frequent and consistent periods of irritation or argumentation toward authority figures that typically begins in preschool years. The DSM-5 lists symptoms including angry/irritable mood, argumentative/defiant behavior, and vindictiveness that negatively impact various areas and last at least 6 months. While there is no single cause, potential factors include genetics, parenting styles, brain chemistry, and social environment. Treatment focuses on therapy that involves training for both the child and parents to improve relationships and behaviors.
Steven Tsao - Perfectionism and Eating Disorder: Personal and Professional Pe...
This document discusses perfectionism and its relationship to eating disorders from both personal and professional perspectives. It begins by defining the clinical criteria for anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, and other specified feeding or eating disorders. It then discusses how perfectionism is a risk factor that exacerbates eating disorder symptoms and remains even after weight restoration. Both Jenni Schaefer and experts discuss how perfectionism can be either adaptive or maladaptive depending on whether the costs outweigh the benefits. They provide strategies for addressing maladaptive perfectionism such as increasing awareness of costs and benefits, exploring how perfectionism impacts goals and standards, and experimenting with imperfection.
Brain Behind, Body Forward
Rhonda Begos discusses her life journey from childhood abuse and trauma to recovery. As a child, she was sexually abused multiple times but adults did not help when she reported it. This led to struggles with substance abuse, mental health issues, and dysfunctional relationships as an adult. Through therapy, she was able to understand how the abuse impacted her. Key to her recovery was acknowledging, believing, and processing the abuse; learning coping strategies; and regaining a sense of safety, trust, and self-worth. She now helps others as a speaker and advocate.
Living with Mental Illness - A Student's Guide

It provides statistics on how common stigma is and its effects, such as creating barriers to accessing healthcare. Next, it shares stories from two individuals discussing their experiences with mental illness and the stigma they faced. It concludes by asking how stigma can be reduced through doctors, individuals, and society listening without judgment and viewing patients as experts in their own conditions.
Child abuse
This document discusses different types of child abuse, including physical abuse, neglect, sexual abuse, and psychological abuse. Physical abuse involves harming a child through physical contact. Neglect involves failing to provide for a child's basic needs. Sexual abuse involves an adult using a child for sexual stimulation.

Relationship counselling
1) John, an 18-year-old only child, sought therapy after a breakup to understand his emotions and behavior in relationships. His childhood was difficult, with abusive and neglectful parents who divorced when he was young.
2) In therapy, similar relationship issues emerged in John's new relationship that were present in his last one. His family history involved dismissive and emotionally neglectful parenting that shaped his insecure attachment style and difficulties in relationships.
3) John experiences intense distress and jealousy in his current relationship that he cannot control, shutting down emotionally and withdrawing. His goal in therapy is to understand these responses and learn new ways of interacting with partners.
Mental health
This document discusses celebrities who have struggled with mental illness such as depression, bipolar disorder, and eating disorders. It then discusses how likely it is for children to develop mental illness if a parent has a mental illness, citing twin studies that show genetics is a risk factor.

The document outlines common types of loss people experience and myths about grief. It describes the five stages of grief as denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance, noting that not everyone experiences them in that order or at all. Finally, it provides tips for coping with grief, including finding support, taking care of physical health, and allowing oneself to feel all emotions without judgment.
Women, Aging, and Mental Health
This document discusses mental health issues affecting older women. It covers demographics showing increasing life expectancy. Having a early-onset mental illness brings additional challenges with aging like interacting medications. Late-life mental illnesses discussed are dementia, delirium, and depression which are underrecognized. Physical changes from aging impact the presentation and treatment of mental illnesses. Stigma is a barrier to care. With appropriate treatment and management of issues, recovery and well-being are possible for older women with mental health conditions.
Scary but funny pranks
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.

New perspectives in borderline personality disorder
This document provides information about borderline personality disorder (BPD), including its epidemiology, symptoms, and relationship to other disorders. Some key points:
- BPD has a prevalence of around 2% in the general population and is more common in females. It is one of the leading diagnoses for psychiatric inpatient readmissions.
- Core symptoms involve poorly regulated emotions, impulsivity, disturbed perceptions and relationships, including fear of abandonment and unstable self-image.
- BPD can resemble other disorders like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, and antisocial personality disorder depending on the current symptoms.
- The disorder is characterized by an unstable sense of self and use of primitive defenses,
Mental Illness And The Aging Presentation
Mental illness is often misdiagnosed or left untreated in the aging population due to the misconception that it is a normal part of aging. This can lead to increased suicide rates, social issues if left untreated, and a lack of treatment options. Proper screening for mental illness during regular doctor's visits through questionnaires can help identify issues earlier and refer patients to specialists. Increased education is needed for both patients and practitioners regarding mental illness and treatment in the elderly.
A Borderline Personality Disorder Primer by Kiera Van Gelder, MFA
This document provides an overview of borderline personality disorder (BPD). It discusses how BPD involves impulsivity and dysregulation in how a person perceives themselves and relates to others. The document outlines the nine diagnostic criteria for BPD according to the DSM-IV and describes some of the common traits and behaviors associated with the disorder such as emotional dysregulation, unstable relationships, and shifting self-image. It discusses theories on the biological and environmental factors that may contribute to the development of BPD. The document also outlines several evidence-based treatments for BPD and stages of recovery.
Elderly Mental Health
Nearly 20% of seniors suffer from some form of mental illness, with the most common being dementia, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer's. The rate of suicide among seniors is the highest of all age groups at twice the national average for those over 85. Common mental disorders seen in seniors include dementia, often mistaken as just a part of aging but is actually a form of mental illness; Alzheimer's, a form of dementia that causes progressive memory loss and cognitive decline; anxiety disorders characterized by high anxiety, panic attacks, and phobias; and schizophrenia, affecting thoughts and behavior through delusions and hallucinations. As a caregiver, providing humor, reassurance, distraction, understanding, and ensuring medication compliance and doctor visits can help
Psychiatric problems among elderly
Elderly individuals are at risk of psychiatric problems like dementia and depression. Dementia affects 5-7% of those over 65 and 40% over 85, with Alzheimer's disease being the most common type. Depression is also common in the elderly. Treatment involves identifying the precise condition, using drugs like acetylcholinesterase inhibitors for dementia or antidepressants for depression, and providing psychosocial support. Psychiatric disorders in the elderly like schizophrenia require careful use of antipsychotic drugs and family psychoeducation.
Depression in the Elderly
This document discusses depression in the elderly. It notes that over 2 million Americans over 65 suffer from depression, which is a mental illness and not a normal part of aging. Symptoms of depression include sadness, loss of interest in activities, changes in appetite and sleep, and thoughts of suicide. Depression in the elderly is often unrecognized and increases health risks. Causes can include painful life events, health issues, loneliness, and medication side effects. Caregivers are told to monitor clients for depression and suicidal thoughts, encourage socialization and activities, and ensure clients receive treatment which may include antidepressant medication.
Depression in the elderly
Depression is common in elderly populations and can be difficult to identify. As occupational therapists are involved in home health and hospitals where depression frequently occurs, they are well-positioned to recognize, treat, and prevent depression. Major depression is characterized by changes in mood, sleep, appetite and energy levels. Elderly clients may experience the usual symptoms of depression or more age-related symptoms like fatigue or trouble sleeping. Occupational therapists can help clients engage in meaningful activities and manage depression by encouraging exercise, social support, and treatment adherence. Early identification and treatment of depression in elderly clients is important to improve outcomes.

The document also lists several programs and services available in the Philippines to support the needs of older adults, such as senior citizen clubs that provide discounts, financial assistance, and homes for the aged that are funded through donations.

The role of emotions in Eating Disorders
When you think about anorexia nervosa, you probably have in mind what the media describes: a really think woman who refuses to eat because she reads too many magazines with extra thin models. Although issues with body image are part of the problem, it falls short of explaining what an eating disorder really is about. Many factors play a role, from biology to family circumstances, and my talk will explore the particular role of emotions in eating disorders with an emphasis on bulimia nervosa.

Depression and Suicide
Depression and suicide are serious issues that can affect anyone. Depression involves prolonged feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and helplessness. It ranges from mild to severe. Suicide is often considered a temporary relief from problems rather than seen as death. Warning signs of suicide include talking about killing oneself, giving away possessions, depression, substance abuse, and risk-taking behaviors. Friends can help by listening non-judgmentally, taking threats seriously, and telling responsible adults if safety is a concern. Both depression and suicide require professional help.
Teen Suicide
Clear warning signs often precede suicide in over 90% of cases. Depression is the leading cause of suicide, and white males have the highest suicide rate increase. Suicide is the third leading cause of death among 15-24 year olds. Relationships, loss, mental constriction, and inability to adjust are common factors. Organizations like AFSP provide support for survivors and work to prevent suicide through education and outreach. Parents should take any suicide talk seriously and seek help from professionals.

Teen depression is a serious disorder that occurs during the teenage years marked by persistent sadness, loss of self-worth, and loss of interest in activities. It can be caused by stress at school, unrealistic expectations from parents, family dysfunction, traumatic events, or bullying. Symptoms include changes in school performance, eating and sleeping habits, low self-esteem, social isolation, excessive guilt or anxiety, and in severe cases, suicidal thoughts. It is important for depressed teens to receive prompt treatment from a mental health professional, such as therapy or medication, to prevent worsening of symptoms and potential suicide. Depression can lead to distorted thinking that makes suicide seem like the only option, so treatment is crucial when suicidal thoughts are present.
