.... mind of undesirable thoughts through hypnotic suggestion, but without lasting success. Josef Breuer, a Viennese physician, achieved better results by letting Anna O., a young woman patient, try to empty her mind by just telling him all of her thoughts and feelings. Freud refined Breuer's method by conceptualizing theories about it and, using these theories, telling his patients through interpretations what was going on inside the unconscious part of their minds, thus making the unconscious become conscious. Many hysterias were cured this way, and in 1895, Breuer and Freud published their findings and theories in Studies in Hysteria. CLA .....

.... that reflect “the genetic plasticity common to all of mankind(Molinar,219)� have to be made to survive and even more than that thrive in this type of environment. In this paper I will describe the high altitude stresses. Along with adaptations made by the populations living in them. The two high altitude populations which I will examine in this paper are the Tibetan people of the Asian Himalayas and the Quechua of the South American Andes. The Quechua are an Indian people who inhabit the highlands of Peru and Bolivia. They speak Quechua, which is a branch of the Andean-Equitorial stock. They show many remnants of Inc .....

.... conscious. Many cases of hysteria were cured this way, and in 1895, Freud, along with another fellow physician, published their findings and theories on the study of hysteria. In The White Hotel by D. M. Thomas, the character Lisa does not exhibit the above form of hysteria, but rather a manifestation of reality. Her own reality has become too imprisoned, and she escapes it by creating another Lisa that is nothing like her person. The traditional psychoanalytical theory states that all human beings are born with instinctual drives that are constantly active even though a person is not usually conscious of them. Two drives, one for sexual .....

.... in a corner in the dark all the time. I was scared all the time, and through all of that, I scared my son to death. He would come to me and say "mommy what's wrong, why do you do these things, please mommy let me help you". But he couldn't help me, I couldn't help myself. I decided to go to the counseling center first, just to see if I could talk my problem out. There I found my salvation and my sanity. I was told that I had not been in school in over twenty years, and here I was all gun ho about school and I just simply bit off more than I could chew. They suggested three things to me. One was to cut back on my hours, I was just t .....

.... the deranged individual from their minds. No other illness is as disabling and baffling as schizophrenia. Today, in spite of the drugs that have allowed many schizophrenics to live at home or in the community, a significant number of people admitted to mental hospitals are victims of the disease. According to the Encyclopedia Of Health, schizophrenics account for nearly 40% of admissions to state mental hospitals, 30% of psychiatric admissions to Veterans Administration hospitals, and about 20% of admissions to private psychiatric hospitals. Schizophrenia is incurable. Its cause or causes are yet unknown, and it is impossible to pred .....

.... in the center of the brain become enlarged, also reducing surface area in the brain. What are the symptoms of Alzheimers Disease? Alzheimers Disease is a dementing illness which leads to loss of intellectual capacity. Symptoms usually occur in older adults (although people in their 40s and 5Os may also be affected) and include loss of language skills such as trouble finding words, problems with abstract thinking, poor or decreased judgment, disorientation in place and time, changes in mood or behavior and changes in personality. The overall result is a noticeable decline in personal activities or work performance. Who is affected by Alz .....

.... into it's memory file for images, information and experiences and weaving them into a story (Kopecky,76). Psychiatrist and philosopher Gordon Globus of the University of California at Irvine, says to determine what kinds of stories they are and to figure out what they can tell us. He says "you need to look beneath the surface of a dream to find the coherence" (78). Since 1853, when REM, or the dream state, was first recognized about thirty studies have explored gender differences in dreaming. These research studies on the gender differences in dreaming reveal some very curious observations. Women's have been found to differ from thos .....

.... have failed, that more could have been done? From the patients point of view, a lot of arguments talk in favor of euthanasia. For one, no body wants to be a burden. If a person has had a car accident which paralyses him from neck and down, and is doomed to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, he knows that he will be 100% dependant on the ones that care for him, his lived ones, forever. It can also be mentioned that the life quality of a terminally ill patient, gets reduced a lot. Never being able to walk again, never being able to talk to your children again, never being able to go shopping, swimming, playing, driving etc. must .....

.... sleeping and waking cycles. These differences seem to be due to heredity, but such factors as the mother's nourishment while she carried the child before birth may be important. An obvious biological difference exists between boys and girls. Later, as children grow and develop, sex differences become stronger. Certain glands called endocrine have different physical effects on boys than on girls. These effects, in turn, produce different psychological experiences in the sexes. But male-female differences in personality are not due solely to biology. The environment is equally important. Society tends to treat boys and girls differently .....

.... important and those who drink to get drunk appear most likely to binge drink or to drink heavily (Shalala, 1, 1995 ). Although alcohol use by adolescents is frequent, alcoholism is very rare. Still, alcohol consumption by adolescents hinders normal development. Alcohol intake by children can result in learning impairment, hyperactivity, and personality and behavior problems, because today's society has accepted the casual use of alcohol (Effects, 1996, 1). Among men, research suggests that greater alcohol use is related to greater sexual aggression (Shalala, 1995, 2). Students living on campuses with higher proportions of binge drinker .....
