  • MFTs and Psychologist: Question about Schizophrenia and DSM-IV-TR?

    I'm working on a vignette about a person who satisfies the criteria for Schizophrenia.

    However, I need to assign the subtype. My choices so far are Paranoid Type or Disorganized Type.

    This is my dilemma:

    The person is having severe hallucinations (all on a religious theme).

    The woman is hospitalized after found in a combative, delusional, irrational and agitated condition. She escaped through her window in the middle of the night taking along her little toddler girl going to what she thinks is the second coming of Christ.

    The vignette mentions in her current episode, her speech is disorganized and her behavior is chaotic. In her previous episode, a bit over 6 months ago, she had "shrieks and screams" and her husband reported her to have jumbled language.

    According to this, I would go with the Disorganized type, but this type does not specify her delusions to have a specific theme.

    However, the Paranoid type requires a theme, but no serious slurring, or chaotic behavior.

    Any suggestions on which one to select?

    Thank you.

  • Job opportunities as a LMFT in Southern California?

    I'm on my 1st semester on the MFT program and I'm loving it. I know I was born to do this job.

    However, I've been hearing from several people how opportunities in SoCal are very limited and the pay is very low. I'm 37 and although I'm brave and adventurous I would hate to invest all the time and money needed for this career for nothing. Any advice out there? Thank you.

  • ¿Porqué los Españoles utilizan la palabra "celebrities" en vez de celebridades?

    Hay algo que no me explico.

    Cuál es la manía de llenar de vocablos ingleses el Castellano?

    celebrities

    teen

    fashion

    El Castellano es una de las lenguas más ricas y exquisitas en el mundo. Escuchar a alguien conversar en buen uso del idioma es una delicia. Llevo muchos años viviendo en Estados Unidos y veo que la identidad del idioma se pierde rápidamente.

    Cuál es la motivación para este cambio? Por qué infectar un idioma tan bello con extranjerismos? Alguien me lo explica?

  • How do you know if you're ready to go on without antidepressants (Celexa)?

    How can you tell you're back to normal?

    If you go off without the meds. (under supervision of a doctor, of course), will you stay stable? or will you go back into depression?

    I've taken the pills for a bit over a year now, and I feel very stable and happy. Like a normal person.

    I've considered getting off the medication, but I'm afraid of going back to the "dark" times.

    Anyone has dealt with this? what was your experience?

    Oh... I don't want to hear about Acai berry, or to read more on Celexa. I promise you, I've done my research and Acai gives me allergies.

    I want a real story on how you dealt with a similar situation.

    Thank you.

  • How can I battle weight gain while taking Celexa?

    I've been taking Celexa for about a year now. I like the effect of the pill and I don't want to stop taking it. However, I've gained 20lbs (without eating more than I used to) and I'm having a difficulty dropping it off.

    I workout for 45mins 5 times a week and I eat healthy.

    Any suggestions? Thank you.

  • anyone has the link to the chewphoria commercial?

    It's a bubble gum commercial. This cute guy dressed up in a suit and a tie tries it and then starts dancing and feeling groovy. Can't remember the name of the chewing gum. They just use the "Chewphoria" slogan.

    Does anyone know where I can see it online? thanks!

  • Delincuencia en Valencia?

    Vivo en USA y voy a viajar a Valenica en dos semanas. Me hospedare en casa de amigos que viven en Catarroja. Nunca he estado en esta region de Espana.

    La mayor parte del tiempo voy a hacer turismo yo sola y tomar el bus, metro y todo tipo de transporte publico.

    Ayer me dijo alguien que hay mucha delincuencia en Valencia y que es peligroso para los turistas andar por ahi.

  • The Matrix gift ideas?

    Ok, so there's a special someone who's all into The Matrix and I would like to give him something related to the movie.

    so far I've found sun-glasses and action figures. I don't think he would be interested in those.

    Can anyone suggest a site where I can find something more interesting or unique about these movies?

  • Has anyone seen the show "Decoding the Past: The Bible Code: Predicting Armageddon" on The History Channel?

    If so, can someone explain to me, why would all these words be found in English? isn't it a little naive to assume there is going to be a secret code in the Old Testament and it will be written in English? Feels too much like "Hollywood" to me, where all the aliens destroy the world (I mean, the United States of America).

    Can anyone explain this to me? Thanks.

  • Can our dreams be "out of the body" experiences?

    Some dreams are so real it seems they could be true experiences; and I think sometimes they are.

    I have had dreams with people I know, and the next day we realize we had similar thoughts.

    Has this happened to anyone else?

    Is there a place I can get more information about this?

    Thank you for your answers.

  • necesito ayuda para encontrar una enciclopedia infantil?

    eran doce tomos, y creo que era de la editorial Grijalbo.

    El primer tomo se llamaba "Desde La Cuna" y eran rimas y poemas, luego venia "erase una vez' que eran todos cuentos y luego Cuentos de Hadas. Cada libro evolucionaba un poco segun la edad. Mitos y leyedas era uno de los ultimos. La pasta era amarillo viejo. Alguien los recuerda? me puede decir como se llama la coleccion?
