God bless, God bless, God bless, God bless, God bless, God bless, that's you, too, my friend, God bless, God bless, God bless, God bless, God bless, God bless, healing, God bless, God bless, God bless, God bless<3

She's such a good professor that she can't do this in the time frame, or put up with the ignorance of what is happening in the class. I didn't go to the presentation, so I wasn't included in this study as a participant.

There are some genetic aspects that are shared within races, but there is so much diversity that it's insignificant compared to the individuality that humanity can present.

The idea that the human race is dying out, and we should have more babies is a genuine conspiracy theory, that then presents for the discussion of eugenics. There is a company that is claiming that they can read the genetic code, and that they'll give you a more intelligent baby. However, it is not backed by fundamental research. Unless they have more research they haven't released for their personal interests, then there is no science happening at all.

Where did they get the recommendation for the time length of this class? Aren't there longer classes? If not, that's a huge mistake.

She wouldn't know that you changed the way my closed eyes look, so I don't know at all. It would have to be a dramatic change for me to feel better.

PTSD: Recurring dreams, dissociative flashbacks from reality into the past mentally. You feel the various senses in the past while you're existing in the present, through memory.

I am afraid that if I don't show something to you, you're going to be copying me by stealing it for fun. As if I can't possibly have a personal life.

Conditioning happens, we start conditioning the objects of the event as the traumatic meaning. Languages involved, senses involved, etc. are something that they will want to avoid.

Amnesia from the trauma,

The fact that this class isn't long enough means they're not as knowledgeable about the subject as my professor is, because she just knows all these facts are important and remembers them in depth. She could have the whole discourse on a timer, to produce the class and then work on it, too, maybe.

Combat and sexual trauma are the most common causes of PTSD.

Not every person who has trauma develop PTSD.

Is there a way for a soldier to report to the military that they've developed PTSD during their service? Is there a way for a soldier to report to the military that they've developed PTSD after the service? What the fuck?<3

Trauma response and PTSD are different, but similar experiences, so there's a pause before the diagnosis happens, if it's directly after the trauma.

The cells of the hippocampus are very sensitive to stress, and the more stress the smaller the hippocampus.

Trauma stressor gets associated with a neutral stimulus. Smelling coffee could trigger PTSD symptoms. Panic and overwhelm are symptoms of the PTSD trigger. Avoidance results.

Exposure therapy to neutral stimulus facilitates healing.

What if men couldn't be humiliated? Would you figure out how to inspire a feeling of bravery for them? A feeling of fearlessness, a feeling of strength, a feeling that facilitates the justice and control of the self.

Imaginative exposure therapy for sexual violence, for combat?????? What the fuck <3

Stress Inoculation Training (SIT) What is it? Why isn't it explained to us? This is important information to know, whatever they would use they would definitely imply it was the best.

"You cannot run after someone in combat, with beta-blockers in a little purse?" -My Professor

My vision is so poor, I know the other contacts were perfect for me. They won't give them to me, just because I'm a super high prescription. I think it's unfair. I want to see.

Crisis intervention therapy: people go to help people after a large crisis; research shows this can increase PTSD symptoms. (They're doing it wrong, they're probably smiling.)

I'm mad. But, it's okay, because the world has some good purposes for purely good intentions only. I think that's a service that calls upon the soul.

OCD

New classification in the DSM-5, used to be called an anxiety disorder, and I would definitely call it an anxiety disorder, especially because it literally increases anxiety. Maybe Pure O, or mainly O for me, should be classified as a different disorder than OCD. I think it's very different, because it is the mind doing something meaningful.

You can have a certain habit of doing sensory things, like eating corn in an orderly way rather than random, and feel uncomfortable eating it randomly, and not have OCD. -My Professor

The fact that she needed to say that. It was a great example.

If someone is obsessed with their work (she said, for example, a painting), it is not OCD obsession. Great example.

People with OCD believe what they're afraid of that the obsessions are about. (A generalization, it's not true for me.)

Obsessions can produce anxiety, worry that they're going to happen, and guilt.

They can stop eating and just think about their obsessions. She said that they want to have those thoughts.

Intrusive.

They're not able to suppress or neutralize their thoughts.

Why is OCD one disorder? It doesn't make sense to me, even though I can get obsessed with a somewhat satisfying sensory experience, does not mean that my thoughts are similar to compulsive actions.

Thought-action fusion: thinking of something must mean doing it, it must be just as bad.

Obsessions:

Fear of germs or contamination most common 40%

Fear of harm to self/others 24%

Scrupolosity 13%

Compulsions: repetitive behaviors performed in response to an obsession. Why an obsession? Is this backed by science, that everyone is compulsive because of obsessions? Does she mean that they're obsessed with the act? Isn't that all it should mean? It didn't seem like that was the case from the videos I've watched of people with compulsions.

There is no connection between hand-washing and germs, because if you do it 50 times, then there's no more germs involved. That's not true, we have germs like bacteria attached to our bodies like parasites.

Touching something is an example of an OCD compulsion.

If you have a habit or a tic of movement, then that's the basil ganglia, so they think that OCD is in the basil ganglia. They've tried surgery on people with OCD, like a lobotomy because that's a huge risk that's not backed by fundamental science. Absolutely not.

Learning that some acts are dangerous/unacceptable: I'm assuming they mean actions like putting clean feet on the couch.

The compulsion is an escape from something. So, I never knew that OCD was always involving obsessions, and I have OCD. Wow, is that some horrible therapy that they're peddling.

High chances for relapse after psychiatric treatment for OCD.

Exposure therapy can include looking at the neutral stimulus, she included licking, I think that's unclean.

You have to prevent them from going to the compulsions, response prevention/ritual prevention.

Cognitive interventions relating to thought-action fusion.

Are they doing something compulsively in order to prevent themselves from leaving and going to do what they're obsessed with? This would be a naturally meaningful thing for the brain to do. Their brain is obsessed with safety, with safety from the threat (whether it involves others' feelings or not), at least during the compulsion. It would make sense for the prevention of threat to take place in the brain during the pure O times within the complex OCD, as well, because safety is associated with control. Fear of the threat to the self determines the fear of the self, the fear of contradiction of strength, obsession may only make the patient feel as if they are a threat to their self-perception, because whatever they're afraid of makes them feel vulnerable. Because this is a fear of the self, the obsession is centered around the experience, and must re-experience the fear as it is the root of the fear of the self. How can one escape the fear of the self? It repeats because the doubt of the self-perception of weakness and fragility in the present state determines the present state, as fear can be a dominant emotion in people with OCD. When I am alone I experience obsession often, but 98% only when I am alone. My self-perception generally plummets when I am alone because I am not serving enough to the world if I am not affecting anyone who I'm sure receives me.

Mood Disorder: discrete periods of times when there are manic or depressive moods.

There is a difference in polarity and severity. ?
