Anxiety is a normal human emotion that exists on a continuum from mild to severe. It is felt when expectations are not met. Symptoms of anxiety include emotional, cognitive, and physical effects like increased heart rate and sleep disturbances. Anxiety disorders affect about 25% of the population and include generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and dissociative disorders. Treatment involves cognitive-behavioral therapy and medications like SSRIs and benzodiazepines.

Psychological health is defined positively as achieving self-actualization through meeting basic needs, developing realistic self-esteem, and effectively handling life's challenges and emotional issues. Common psychological disorders addressed are anxiety disorders like phobias, panic disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Mood disorders like depression and bipolar disorder are also discussed, as well as schizophrenia. The chapter emphasizes seeking help through self-help methods or professional treatment.
Psycho physiological disorders
Psychophysiological disorders are mental and behavioral disorders associated with physiological disturbances and physical factors. They include eating disorders like anorexia nervosa, binge eating disorder, and bulimia nervosa which are characterized by harmful eating behaviors and issues with body image. They also include non-organic sleep disorders like insomnia and hypersomnia which involve disturbances in sleep patterns, as well as sexual dysfunctions and perinatal mental disorders. The document provides details on the characteristics, causes, and treatment of these conditions.

Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder characterized by distortions in thinking, perception, emotions, language, sense of self and behavior. Symptoms include hallucinations, delusions, disorganized speech and behavior. It affects about 1% of people and usually appears in late teens to mid-20s. Possible causes include genetics, brain abnormalities, viral infections during pregnancy and environmental stressors. There are positive symptoms like hallucinations and negative symptoms like lack of emotions. Treatment involves medication and therapy.
Mood disorders ppt
This document discusses mood disorders and provides details about different types of mood disorders. It defines mood disorders as severe alterations in mood that last for long periods of time and are maladaptive. The two key moods involved are mania and depression. There are two main types of mood disorders - unipolar depressive disorders, which only involve depressive episodes, and bipolar disorder, which involves both manic and depressive episodes. Several types of depression and bipolar disorders are described, along with their diagnostic criteria.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is an anxiety disorder that can develop after exposure to a traumatic or stressful event, and lasts for more than 30 days. PTSD affects 15-24% of people exposed to traumatic events and is associated with depression, substance abuse, physical and mental health problems. Symptoms include intrusive memories, hypervigilance, nightmares, and inability to concentrate. Twin studies show a possible genetic predisposition for PTSD. Women have a higher risk than men of developing PTSD after a traumatic event. A study in post-genocidal Rwanda found that 95% of children witnessed violence, 80% suffered the death of a close relative, and 62% were threatened with death, with

Anxiety disorders are characterized by excessive and persistent worry and fear that interfere with daily activities, unlike ordinary worries and fears. They are caused by biological factors like abnormal neurotransmitter levels or brain structures, learned behaviors through classical and operant conditioning, and repressed unconscious urges according to psychoanalytic theory. Specific anxiety disorders include generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder, each with distinct symptoms, triggers, and treatments.
Review game
This document contains a review game for abnormal psychology with 41 multiple choice questions. It covers topics like psychological disorders (including depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD), personality disorders, anxiety disorders, and the DSM classification system. The questions assess understanding of symptoms, causes, prevalence, and diagnostic criteria for various mental illnesses.
Obsessive Compulsive & Related Disorders for NCMHCE Study
The document provides an overview of obsessive-compulsive and related disorders as defined in the DSM5. It discusses the diagnostic criteria and symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder, body dysmorphic disorder, hoarding disorder, hair-pulling disorder, and skin-picking disorder. It also reviews common comorbidities, assessment measures, and treatment approaches, which include exposure therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.
Women who are full cape sociology
Housewives experience higher rates of stress, anxiety, and depression than employed women and men according to the text. Feminist perspectives argue that housewives are oppressed as they are overworked, unpaid, must care for children and husbands without regard to their own needs, which can lead to poorer mental health. The text suggests referring to additional sources on feminist views of why housewives may experience greater health issues compared to employed individuals.
Classification of child psychiatry
Child psychiatry is a branch of psychiatry that focuses on behavioral, emotional, and developmental disorders in children and adolescents under age 18. It involves treating conditions like autism, ADHD, anxiety disorders, depression, adjustment disorders, schizophrenia, and effects of abuse or trauma. Child psychiatrists conduct evaluations of a patient's history, mental status, family relationships, and functioning at home and school to diagnose conditions and formulate treatment plans. Common approaches include medication management and therapies that are modified for children compared to adult patients. Childhood disorders have multiple contributing factors including genetics, temperament, medical issues, family dynamics, and environment.
ADHD Weigel 20150612
This document discusses the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children and adults, focusing on clinical aspects of medication management. It describes how stimulant medications like methylphenidate and amphetamines are the best documented and most effective treatment for ADHD symptoms. Behavioral therapies can also be effective, either alone or in combination with medication. The optimal treatment is medication management combined with behavioral therapy.
From Concerns to Conditions by Dr. Jaruwan Kittisopit and Dr. Joom Chomchuay
This document discusses a research-based approach to medical diagnosis in neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric fields. It outlines gathering concerns from multiple sources, considering developmental norms and individual factors, and using a biopsychosocial model to evaluate significant concerns and determine appropriate conditions or diagnoses. A case example demonstrates this process to diagnose major depressive disorder in a teenage girl based on DSM-5 criteria.
EBD_ PPT_2.pptx
Children with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) exhibit behaviors over a long period of time that negatively impact their education. EBD was previously referred to using stigmatizing labels but is now commonly called EBD. Causes of EBD can include biological factors like genetics or illness, family factors such as abuse or poor parenting, and school factors like inappropriate expectations from teachers. Proper support and interventions are needed to help children with EBD succeed.
Personality Disorders and Aging
This document discusses personality disorders and aging. It begins by defining personality and outlining the "Big Five" personality traits. It then discusses how personality traits generally change with age, with agreeableness and conscientiousness increasing and extraversion and openness decreasing after age 50. The document outlines the diagnostic criteria for personality disorders and clusters them into groups A, B, and C. It notes several challenges with diagnosing personality disorders in older adults and provides case examples of how different clusters may present. Overall management tips focus on balancing structure with flexibility, validating feelings, and empowering independence.
Childhood psychiatry
This document discusses childhood psychiatric problems and disorders. It covers the mental health of children, including development milestones and red flags to watch for. It also discusses the classification of childhood disorders like behavior, emotional, elimination, and developmental disorders. Finally, it addresses the burden on caregivers of children with psychiatric issues and signs of caregiver burnout.
Behavioral Problems in children.pptx
There is no precise definition of behavioral problems, but we can define them as child behaviors that cause or are likely to cause difficulties in the child's learning activities. A child may show one or more than one behavior problem during his/her period of development. Some behavior problems may occur at a specific stage of development while some behavior problems occur at different stages.
Cad socio-emo devt of intermediate schoolers
This document discusses factors that affect children's socio-emotional development in late childhood from grades 4-6. Popular children are favored by peers because they give reinforcement, act naturally, listen carefully, are happy and in control of emotions, and show concern for others. Rejected children participate less, have negative school attitudes, are often lonely, and can be aggressive. During late childhood, biological, psychological and social changes occur across development domains. The family environment remains important, but peers and school also influence development. Peer acceptance becomes very important to well-being at this stage. The document instructs interviewing a parent or teacher of an intermediate schooler to understand their perspectives on a child's socio-emotional development.

Developmental psychopathology examines how development influences psychopathology and vice versa. Clinicians use statistical deviance, maladaptiveness, and personal distress to define abnormal behavior. Autism is characterized by impaired social skills, communication, and repetitive behaviors and has a biological basis. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder involves inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity and may be linked to low neurotransmitter levels. Treating developmental disorders in children is challenging due to their cognitive levels and need for parental involvement. In Ethiopia, awareness of such disorders is low and traditional beliefs influence treatment.
PSYCHOPATHOLOGY
This document provides an overview of the classification of childhood and adolescent psychopathology. It discusses:
1) The early lack of a formal classification system and the inclusion of childhood disorders in the first DSM in 1952 which only included two disorders.
2) The more detailed classification system provided by the Group for the Advancement of Psychiatry in 1966 which broadened understanding of childhood disorders.
3) Common disorders like ADHD, oppositional defiant disorder, conduct disorder, anxiety disorders, depression, and symptom disorders like enuresis and encopresis.
4) Etiological factors, symptoms, prevalence, comorbidities, and treatment approaches for these disorders.
5) The
Lecture two with narration
The document discusses basic principles of psychiatric diagnosis including: seeking the single most parsimonious diagnosis; understanding illnesses in a hierarchy from most to least severe; collecting reliable data and ensuring all diagnostic criteria are met; and prognosis being dependent on factors like treatment compliance and social support. Etiology is explored using models like diathesis-stress and the four P's of predisposition, precipitation, provocation, and perpetuation. Causation is positioned as complex with both biological and psychosocial influences.
schizotypal personality disorder
Tyler Parker, a 15-year-old male, is being evaluated for schizotypal personality disorder. He displays signs such as odd thinking, inappropriate affect, peculiar behavior and appearance, lack of friends, and excessive social anxiety. Schizotypal personality disorder is characterized by social deficits, cognitive distortions, and odd behavior. It is diagnosed when at least five criteria from the DSM-IV-TR are met. Potential causes include genetic, social, and psychological factors. Treatment involves psychotherapy and medications.
Pervasive Developmental Disorders
The document discusses pervasive developmental disorders and autism spectrum disorders. It presents a case vignette of a 5-year-old boy named Donald exhibiting symptoms of autism such as lack of social interaction and affection. It then covers the history of autism including theorists who studied and named different conditions. It discusses diagnostic classifications, prevalence, potential etiologies including genetic and neurological factors, and features of autistic disorder.
There's this kid...including kids with emotional, behavioral and developmenta...
This document discusses including children with hidden disabilities like ADHD, anxiety, and autism spectrum disorders in ministry programs. It notes that 22% of children have a mental health disorder, yet many disabilities are hidden. Barriers to participation include social difficulties, sensory issues, and fear of being singled out. The Phillips family is introduced as an example, with one child having ADHD/dyslexia, another separation anxiety, and the mother having social anxiety. Potential barriers for this family participating in church and Awana are explored. The document promotes the ministry of Key Ministry in supporting families impacted by mental illness or developmental disabilities.
Including kids in your ministry who struggle with anxiety
This workshop helps ministry leaders to recognize situations when anxiety represents a barrier to participation in Awana activities and develop strategies for welcoming and including kids with all types of anxiety into your programming.

Understanding Developmental Psychopathology Section 11.1
11.1 Understanding Developmental Psychopathology
It is stressful for any family when one member has a psychological disorder; it is especially
stressful when the affected person is a child. Children are changing constantly. Unfortu-
nately, because of disease, genetics, or traumatic experiences (to name just three possible
factors), some children find the road to adulthood full of obstacles. Unless they are helped,
such children are at risk for psychological disorders. In addition to the at-risk children, their
parent(s) and/or caregivers are also at risk. To gain a better picture of children’s issues, and
those of their caregivers, we will examine the members of the University Hospital Parent Sup-
port Group. This group was organized by psychologist Stuart Berg. Its members are parents
of children under treatment for psychological disorders. Let’s look at Part 1 of the support
group’s case study.
Case Study: Support Group: Part 1
Parent Support Group Transcript
DR. BERG: My name is Stuart Berg. I am a clinical psychologist working here at University
Hospital. I want to welcome each of you to this first support group meeting. I know some of
you, and I will look forward to meeting and working with all of you in the weeks to come.
The goal of this support group is to help you help your children and yourselves. You are all
here because you have a child in treatment and because you indicated an interest in mutual
support. Although these meetings will be unstructured, they do have a goal—to help you
cope with having a child who has a psychological disorder. Some of the issues we discuss will
be practical: how to access government assistance programs, how to find a babysitter, how
to get your child to the dentist. Because some parents whose children develop psychological
disorders feel guilty and ashamed, as if they were the cause of their child’s problems, we will
also try to educate ourselves about what causes psychological disorders in children and what
we can do about them. Because this is our first meeting, I thought it might be a good idea to
go around and have each of you introduce yourself to the others. Let’s begin on my left.
