I agree with your argument that bipolar disorder is a psychological disorder that has far-reaching ramifications. It is often very difficult to deal with individuals suffering from the condition. I also agree with your assertion that people often have reservations when dealing with individuals that have bipolar disorder. In fact, some people conclude that they are insane, thereby affecting tire reputations. Indeed, most individuals often claim that they are open to people’s issues; however, this is not the case especially in regards to how individuals suffering from psychological conditions are treated. Furthermore, I agree with your assertion that one of the worst symptoms psychosis, which is entails severe episodes of depression and mania. The society should recognise the fact that individuals with psychological disorders sometimes have little control of their emotions behaviours; therefore, they should empathise with them and help them cope with their conditions.
I agree with you that the course played a crucial role in helping me understand various aspects of general psychology as well as the mind. Even though this was just an introduction course, the skills and the concepts that I learned will definitely help me in my professional and personal life, especially while interacting with other individuals. Furthermore, I agree with your assertion that the course highlighted the relationship that exists between mental and physical health. As a result, I am now in a position to understand and interpret people’s behaviours across different spectrums. Finally, I agree with your assertion that the course enhanced my understanding of mental illness. As a result, we should also help other members of the public to know and understand some of the issues related to mental illness.

I agree with your assertion that schizophrenia is a severe brain disorder that people believe is an abnormality. It may lead to a combination of delusions, hallucinations, and disordered behaviour and thinking. Furthermore, it leads to the disruption of the normal balance of the thinking and emotions. I also agree with your assertion that the common challenge with this disorder is that it can occur abruptly; therefore, individuals in the society should know and understand the disorder as well as some of the facilities and medications that can be used to manage individuals that have the condition.
