Abnormal Psych Psych Disorders (D/O) manifest in people’s
thoughts and behaviors. It’s difficult to determine what constitutes “abnormal.” What’s the difference between odd, little quirks we all have and a legitimate mental illness? M – Maladaptive – makes it difficult to function – in
work, school or relationships A – Atypical – most people don’t do it; unusual I – Irrational – there is no logical explanation for the
behavior D – Disturbing – it is disturbing to self or others

DSM - V How do we know when someone has a D/O? Diagnostic Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
Has hundreds of disorders Doesn’t discuss cause or treatment Only discusses symptoms for diagnosis/labeling Highly reliable (80%...what does this mean?)

What do YOU think of Rosenhan’s study?

Pros and Cons of Labeling
Pros Get help – you know what
you have and can deal with it - meds, counseling, treatment
Insurance – once officially diagnosed, insurance will help cover costs
Reliability/consistency among professionals
Legal competence – “insanity” is a legal, not medical term
Cons Self-fulfilling prophecy
Stigma – mistreated by society (?)

ANXIETY D/O
All Anxiety D/O share the common symptom of anxiety. Abnormalities may be….
1.) Level of Anxiety – excessive
2.) Irrational trigger for anxiety
3.) Prolonged timing for anxiety

PANIC ATTACKS Acute episodes of intense anxiety without any
apparent provocation (you feel like you are in a life or death emergency situation – but you are not)
Sympathetic NS kicks in Choking sensation Trembling Hyperventilating Distress Sweating or peaked

PHOBIAS Intense unwarranted fear of a situation or object. Fear is way
out of proportion to real danger. Some stimuli are easier to avoid and therefore less debilitating)
Claustrophobia – fear of small places, confinement
Arachnophobia – fear of spiders
Agoraphobia – fear of public places – may refuse to leave home and world becomes smaller and smaller
Social Phobia – fear of embarrassing oneself in public
Many phobias are created from a panic attack and classical conditioning (remember the story of my nephew and the elevator)

Obsessive Compulsive D/O (OCD) Obsessions: persistent, recurring, disturbing,
unwanted thoughts – cause extreme anx Compulsions: ritual or routine that relieves the anx

Suicide 3-1 suicide – homicide Women more likely to attempt, but men twice as likely
to succeed….why? Suicide rates higher among white, rich, nonreligious,
single, widowed, divorced….why? People seldom commit suicide while in depths of
depression (lack energy and initiative). Suicide attempt actually more likely when person experience slight upswing from depths of depression
