    It was a one-time psychosis event caused by taking too much of a medication. I think the fact that he has severe Parkinson's with depression *possibly* made his brain more vulnerable to psychosis. Who...

    Multicollinearity replied to SkateBetty's topic in General Nursing

    You know, it's one thing to read the definition of psychosis in a textbook. I don't think it really sinks in until you sit with someone experiencing it, and hear their delusions and see them respond...

    I agree completely. If Andrea Yates isn't insane, then who is? The woman hallucinated. She thought the cartoon characters in the TV were telling her to do things. She was sure she had '666' burned on...

    Have you had a full-time credit load while working full-time before? Also, many people do find A&P to be more time demanding than other

    Why do people drop out of AZ nursing schools?

    Multicollinearity replied to CrazyPremed's topic in Arizona Nursing

    YES! I do this. Before each semester I go to Costco and I (((really stock up))). I buy everything I use or consume, to last for 4 months. That way I only have to stop at the grocery store for...

    alternate ways of treating borderline personality disorder

    Multicollinearity replied to hsieh's topic in Psychiatric

    This is so true. I ended up seeing a psychologist because my mother (borderline) was driving me nuts. Once I understood what was going on with my mother I no longer got so angry and upset. When mom...

    alternate ways of treating borderline personality disorder

    Multicollinearity replied to hsieh's topic in Psychiatric

    I don't think the disorder is recognised in Africa. Also approximately 10% of borderline patients do commit suicide. I agree that much of the threats are for attention - but that alone shows great...

    alternate ways of treating borderline personality disorder

    Multicollinearity replied to hsieh's topic in Psychiatric

    I agree that treatment for borderlines is frustrating. Even if the ONLY success is preventing suicide because of hospitalization, isn't that an epic success? Even when the borderline patient is...

    Since my mother is a borderline, I do understand from personal experience how and why physicians and nurses can snap and vent behind closed doors. It is only expected and human, because borderlines...

    Are you working? If so how many hours? What was the heaviest credit load you carried when you got your bachelors degree? I'd take a good look at those questions. The thing about anatomy is there is no...
