For this discussion, we will explore psychological disorders by hearing from those who have experienced one of these disorders in a personal way. Choose ONE of these stories and watch the accompanying Ted Talk. In your post, discuss what you learned from the talk about psychological disorders?
- Elanor Longden (schizophrenia); https://youtu.be/syjEN3peCJw
- Nikki Weber Allen (anxiety & depression); https://youtu.be/shG0ezBeeJc
- Ji Hae Park (depression); https://youtu.be/ZMGZQZRIsJE
- Kevin Briggs (depression & suicide); https://youtu.be/7CIq4mtiamY
These individuals share their stories about living with and addressing psychological disorders. Reading about these experiences is different than hearing these stories. In your post, share what you learned from the story. How does this story teach you about psychological disorders? Thank you!
