I'm working on getting my Ph.D. in psychology. My biggest pet peeve is when people on here throw disorders around like everyone has one (especially when 80% of them don't know what the disorder actually is!). If you have any questions about certain disorders or just want to vent feel free to email me!

  • Need help... please...?

    I'm doing a survey, and I need you to answer this question...

    What disorder do you think you have? Not to be confused with symptoms... what you think you actually have... like a doctor would diagnose you with...

    I also need you to tell me you age, sex, race, the number of people in your household, and the financial status of your household (lower class, lower-middle class, middle class, upper-middle class or upper class). Any answers would be greatly appreciated and included in my survey. I know some of these questions are kind of personal, so if you'd prefer you can just email me (email in my profile). Also, these answers will me completely anonymous. Even if you have none of these, your contribution is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    A. OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) or OCPD (obsessive compulsive personality disorder)

    B. Bipolar

    C. Depression

    D. Schizophrenia

    E. BDD (body dimorphic disorder)

    F. BPD (borderline personality disorder)

    G. GAD (general anxiety disorder)

    H. Phobia

    I. Multi-personality Disorder

    J. ADD (attention deficit disorder) or ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder)

    K. Other (specify)

    L. None

  • Psychology is not important?

    Who was it that said that? I think it was a senator or something, he wanted to cut off funds for psychology because he said it was useless....

  • Is taking laxatives everyday ok?

    I'm trying to lose a little weight and I thought taking a small dose of laxatives would help the process along. I'm not sure if its dangerous to your body though. I don't even plan on taking a full dose though, just half of one, maybe. Your thoughts would be great!
