Mental illness is common and can affect anyone regardless of factors such as age, gender, race, or income. While many types of mental illness are known, such as depression, anxiety disorders, and bipolar disorder, there are also lesser known types like body dysmorphic disorder and dissociative disorder. Mental health assessments are used to identify mental health problems, determine if issues are mental or physical, and check for substance abuse. Assessments involve interviews, observations, medical exams, and verbal or written tests to evaluate how a person thinks, reasons, and remembers as well as how they function. Treatment options include medications, psychotherapy, electroconvulsive therapy, and non-medical approaches like diet, exercise, and support groups

PTSD
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a
real illness. You can get PTSD after living through or seeing a traumatic
event, such as war, a hurricane, rape, physical abuse or
a bad accident. PTSD makes you feel stressed and afraid after the danger is
over. It affects your life and the people around you.
PTSD can cause problems like:
-- Flashbacks, or feeling like the event is
happening again
-- Trouble sleeping or nightmares
-- Feeling alone
-- Angry outbursts
-- Feeling worried, guilty or sad
PTSD starts at different times for
different people. Signs of PTSD may start soon after a frightening event and
then continue. Other people develop new or more severe signs months or even
years later. PTSD can happen to anyone, even children.
Medicines can help you feel less afraid and
tense. It might take a few weeks for them to work. Talking to a specially
trained doctor or counselor also helps many people with PTSD. This is called
talk therapy.

- Treatment involves medication like antidepressants, psychotherapy, and lifestyle changes. Proper treatment
psychoeducation- Final.pptx
The document discusses the history and development of psychoeducation as a treatment approach for psychiatric disorders. It began in the early 1900s as part of the mental hygiene movement and was popularized by C.M. Anderson in 1980 for the treatment of schizophrenia. Psychoeducation aims to help individuals better understand their condition, cope with symptoms, and make better behavioral choices through providing information. It can be delivered individually, in groups, to families, and communities. The document outlines several models and components of psychoeducation programs as well as examples of programs for psychotic disorders, mood disorders, and pre-discharge counseling.
Depressive disorders
The document discusses several types of depressive disorders as defined in the DSM-V, including major depressive disorder, persistent depressive disorder (dysthymia), disruptive mood dysregulation disorder, and their diagnostic criteria. It provides details on the criteria for disruptive mood dysregulation disorder, including requirements around temper outbursts and irritable mood.

Chapter 13 Psychiatric Medications
Psychotherapeutic medications have been used to treat mental illness for centuries. In the 1940s-1950s, early treatments included marijuana, amphetamines, insulin shock therapy, and electroshock therapy. In 1949, lithium was discovered and became one of the first psychotropic drugs used long-term to treat bipolar disorder. Chlorpromazine, first used in the 1950s, significantly reduced hospitalizations and led to deinstitutionalization, though this had some unintended consequences. Today, the most commonly prescribed medications are antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs, which provide relief for most patients.
Anxiety disorder
This document discusses anxiety disorders. It defines anxiety and pathological anxiety, and notes that anxiety disorders are associated with neurotransmitter imbalances involving serotonin, noradrenaline, and GABA. It then describes several types of anxiety disorders including panic disorder, separation anxiety disorder, specific phobia, social anxiety disorder, and generalized anxiety disorder. The document outlines biological and medical causes of anxiety disorders and lists common symptoms. It concludes with a discussion of assessment, management through pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy, and medications used to treat different anxiety disorders.
Post traumatic stress disorder-ppt
1) Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is caused by exposure to highly stressful or dangerous events and symptoms must last over a month.
2) It has been referred to by different names in different eras reflecting traumatic events of those times like shell shock or combat stress syndrome.
3) PTSD is associated with changes in neurobiology including increased noradrenergic activity and alterations in the hippocampus and amygdala.
4) Symptoms include re-experiencing the traumatic event, avoidance of trauma-related stimuli, and increased arousal and anxiety.
Borderline Personality Disorder
This document provides information on borderline personality disorder (BPD), including a case presentation, diagnostic criteria, associated features, prevalence, etiology, course, differential diagnosis, and treatment approaches. The case involves a 17-year-old female with a history of self-injurious behaviors, mood swings, insomnia, and anger issues. Upon examination, she displays impulsivity, impaired judgment, and an unstable self-image. Her mother also has BPD. The document outlines the diagnostic criteria for BPD and discusses cognitive-behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy as evidence-based treatment options.
Anxiety and depression
This document discusses facts and statistics about anxiety disorders and depression. It states that anxiety disorders are the most common psychiatric illnesses affecting both children and adults, with nearly 40 million Americans suffering from anxiety and/or depression. However, only about 1/3 of those suffering receive treatment. Both anxiety disorders and depression are treatable medical conditions that can be helped by a professional, but are often underreported and undertreated. The risks factors for anxiety disorders are complex and can include genetics, brain chemistry, personality and life events.
Impulse Control Disorder
Impulse control disorders are characterized by the inability to resist harmful or destructive acts. People with these disorders seek temporary pleasure through acts like hair pulling, gambling, or arson despite knowing the long term negative consequences. The causes are not fully known but may involve brain injuries, medical conditions, abnormal brain development or chemistry. Treatments include cognitive behavioral therapy, medication, and stress management. A study found pathological gamblers had decreased brain activity in impulse control regions when viewing gambling videos compared to non-gamblers.
Mood stabilizers
This document outlines mood stabilizers, including lithium, valproate, carbamazepine, and antipsychotic agents. It discusses their pharmacologic actions, therapeutic indications, dosages, guidelines, and precautions. Mood stabilizers are used to treat bipolar disorder and other conditions by decreasing the frequency and severity of manic and depressive episodes. Key precautions include risks during pregnancy, adverse effects like weight gain and liver toxicity, and the need for monitoring. Mood stabilizers are an important treatment option for bipolar disorder but require awareness of safety considerations.
Depression
The document discusses depression, including its symptoms, types, causes, diagnosis, and treatment. It defines three main types of depression - clinical depression, minor depression, and bipolar disorder. It explains that depression is linked to imbalances in brain chemicals like serotonin and shrinkage in parts of the brain. Common treatments include SSRIs and therapy.
Substance abuse treatment
Effective therapies for drug and alcohol addiction include CBT, community reinforcement approach plus vouchers, contingency management/motivational incentives, motivational enhancement therapy, the Matrix Model, 12-step facilitation therapy, and behavioral couples therapy. Therapies created for adults like CBT, MET, and the Matrix Model need modifications to be effective for adolescents.

1. Relapse is common in addiction recovery, with rates as high as 60-90% within a year of treatment. Prevention of relapse is critical for effective treatment.
2. Relapse is a process that occurs in phases, from initial internal changes to full loss of control over substance use. There are warning signs in each phase.
3. High-risk situations like negative emotions, conflicts, and social pressure can lead to relapse if the person does not have coping skills. The "abstinence violation effect" can also undermine commitment to sobriety.
4. Understanding relapse as a complex, multi
Bipolar disorder

Presentation net neutrality updated December 2017
Net neutrality ensures equal access to all online content without throttling by internet service providers (ISPs). In December 2017, net neutrality protections were removed, allowing ISPs to potentially block or slow certain websites or apps. This could negatively impact consumers by creating fast and slow internet lanes that charge more for preferred access or favor certain companies that pay higher fees. Without net neutrality, ISPs have more control over online content and could impact what information people access.

On October 21, 2016, a cyber attack took about half of the websites in the US. This presentation discusses the attack, why it happened, how it occurred, and what we can learn from it.
An introduction to diabetes
This document provides an overview of diabetes, including the different types. It explains that diabetes is a metabolic disease where blood glucose levels are too high due to the body either not producing enough insulin or not properly responding to insulin. The four main types of diabetes are prediabetes, type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes. Type 1 is an autoimmune disease where the pancreas produces little to no insulin, type 2 is most common where the body becomes resistant to insulin, and gestational occurs in some pregnant women. Symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and risks of untreated diabetes are also outlined.
An end to net neutrality
The FCC is proposing new rules that would allow internet service providers to create fast lanes and slow lanes, allowing them to charge companies like Netflix more for priority access in the fast lane. This could create tiers of internet access and favor some companies that pay over others. Supporters argue it increases competition, while opponents argue it is unfair to consumers and hurts innovation from smaller companies. The White House and internet companies like Netflix support stronger net neutrality rules that classify ISPs as common carriers under Title II.

Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is a chronic disease that causes the breakdown of cartilage in a joint, resulting in bones rubbing together and causing pain. It has two types - primary osteoarthritis associated with aging and wear and tear, and secondary osteoarthritis that can develop early in life due to injury or obesity. Risk factors include age, sex, injuries, obesity, and certain diseases. Exercise, especially moderate aerobic exercise and strength training focused on the hips and knees, can help reduce symptoms by decreasing inflammation and pain while improving mobility.
Healthy communication presentation
The document discusses healthy communication skills such as listening, nonverbal communication, communicating under stress, and empathy. It provides examples of each skill and emphasizes focusing on the speaker, avoiding judgment, showing interest, keeping an open posture, using positive body language, loosening shoulders and breathing when stressed, looking for humor, being willing to compromise, and understanding the other person's feelings. Unhealthy communication includes blaming, defensiveness, labeling, sarcasm, hopelessness, and denial of feelings. The document encourages remembering the EAR method of showing empathy, being assertive, and communicating respectfully.
Bitcoin
Bitcoin is an electronic currency that began in 2009 and relies on a network of computers to verify transactions without a central authority. The value of bitcoin is highly volatile and dependent on user confidence. Bitcoins can be used to purchase goods online from some retailers and are stored in virtual wallets with unique keys. The collapse of Mt. Gox, a major bitcoin exchange, in 2014 demonstrated issues with unregulated currency when over $450 million in bitcoins went missing due to theft. Better regulation of exchanges may help bitcoin gain mainstream acceptance.
Review of brain plasticity
Brain plasticity refers to the brain's ability to change and form new connections through learning. Engaging in mentally stimulating activities like learning a new skill, taking challenging classes, or playing music can improve brain plasticity. Real-life examples show how activities like learning directions or an instrument can physically change the brain's structure. While positive plasticity occurs through learning, negative plasticity can happen from habits like inactivity, disengagement, or negative learning patterns. The document recommends choosing novel, engaging, rewarding, and meaningful activities to improve brain plasticity and protect cognitive abilities.
Depression
Depression is a whole body illness that affects both physical and emotional health. It influences factors like eating, sleeping, working, and relationships. There are several types of depression including major depressive disorder, dysthymic disorder, minor depression, psychotic depression, postpartum depression, and seasonal affective disorder. Clinical depression is diagnosed when 5 or more symptoms are present most days, such as sadness, loss of interest, feelings of worthlessness, changes in appetite or sleep, and thoughts of death or suicide. Depression is caused by a combination of genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological factors and can run in families. It is treated through medication, psychotherapy, electroconvulsive therapy, and lifestyle changes.
5 technologies that have changed our lives
5 technologies that have changed our lives are email, iPods, smartphones, Facebook and other social media, and Skype. Email allows communication without barriers of distance or time but lacks personalization. iPods store vast music libraries portably but reduce aesthetic album experiences. Smartphones integrate computer functions into phones, enabling constant connectivity but reducing eye contact. Facebook and social media enable immediate sharing and connections but risk oversharing and lack of time. Skype enables video calls internationally but can feel intrusive with spotty connections. Emerging technologies discussed include Google Glass, smartwatches, geolocation services, 3D printing, and Google Fiber's ultra-fast internet.
