Studying Psychology discussion

Known as mental disorders. These are patterns of behavioral or psychological symptoms that impact multiple areas of life. These disorders create distress for the person experiencing these symptoms.

A mental disorders is difficult to talk about because it's widely

This is true, Sabiha. I'm hoping to get some sort of discussion going, maybe we can discuss different books we have read on mental illness or share examples of different illnesses.

Let me know if we need a new folder for your topic if it doesn't go under the ones already formed.
