This document summarizes various topics in psychiatry including sexual disorders, electroconvulsive therapy, psychotherapy, and Jean Piaget's stages of cognitive development. It discusses normal sexual response cycles and disorders that impact desire, arousal, orgasm and resolution. It also outlines techniques for treating premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction. Gender identity disorder and paraphilias are explained. Details are provided about ECT administration and mechanisms of action. An overview of Freudian psychoanalytic theory and different psychotherapy approaches are presented.
