  • I spent 4 years in university and not a single faculty member gave a lecture with even a fraction of the clarity that this lecture has. Thank you Khan Academy for being the best out there.

    i just don't like it when I'm with too many people to hang out. it's either, i feel left out or I fear of having the attention. i feel like i am slowly being separated from people. i don't know the reason why

    I’m a PMHNP student and taking proactive steps to learning more about my field of study before my psych specific courses begin and I’m glad this is the first video I started with. It helped me gain a general overview of each disorders before I begin to learn them in their fullness. Thank you!

    As a person with ADD people often mistake my condition with ADHD. My ADD really took over my life and I couldn’t focus at all and I’ll be having maladaptive day dreams. I would fidget a lot. With ADD my whole life I have gotten really bad grades as well, when I got my medication it made my heart beat so fast and made me hyper. I don’t like it but it helps me focus at least

  • @General_reader
    Is there a disorder where the mind is constantly in a state of over active chaotic incoherency? Even when the body is at rest?
