We won't address mental disorders until Unit 5, however, I highly recommend you check out this link. You can hear from schizophrenics what it's like to live with this mental disorder.
Let me know your thoughts if you would like participation points. Thanks.
Do deaf schizophrenics hear voices? Does it depend on whether you're born deaf or not?
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of a deaf schizophrenic.
ReplyDeleteI know I'm not in your psych class, but I thought this story was awesome! Its so interesting that Cadigan isn't aware of reality and that he can't trust his own brain. Its amazing to me that his schizophrenia affects his creative mind and helps with his wood carvings.
ReplyDeleteTess,
ReplyDeleteNo worries. You should search for some art done by schizophrenics. It's pretty surreal.
I love his art. Very amazing and creative.
ReplyDeleteI et annoyed hearing people talk on the radio.....if i had voices in my head i dont think id stick around too long
ReplyDeleteThe story was cool. his mind is being affected and he cannot trust his own self!
ReplyDeletethis was super cool!!
