Psychiatric Disorders
Welcome to Psychiatric Disorders at Suite101, where we elaborate on abnormal psychology and mental illness.
Disorders often develop due to living situation, environment, trauma, imbalance or a predisposition from birth.
Whether officially diagnosed or a group of symptoms, issues with psychosis, anxiety, depression and antisocial behavior affect all of us, directly or indirectly.
Here you will find information on identifying signs and symptoms, treatment options, self-help methods and strategies for dealing with your own symptoms or those of family members and co-workers.
Teachers and parents will also find information for working with children, dealing with classroom management and working through family dynamics.
Comments, questions and suggestion are always welcome. Email me or visit my blog.
