107.20161 Mental Illness in the Workplace
The types of illness can vary greatly from social phobias that cause people not to be able to function at work because of always feeling watched, depression, and alcohol or drug use (which is often a residual of depression or vice versa). Within these varying illnesses one can note two different reactions to these illnesses from coworkers and employers. The two greatest reactions to mental illness in the work place is that of compassion and that of concern from a liability standpoint whether it be money or morale. This essay will start with the types of illnesses, their specific affect on those that have the illness and those that must be exposed to it because of close proximity in the work environment.

108.20411 Manic Creativity
Some researchers in the field argue that artistic creativity is in fact a bi-product of manic depressive sensibilities, the result of heightened senses, manic focus and unique perceptivity. For these scientists and the patients who also adhere to this belief, eradication of the symptoms of the disease could actually hinder the patient?s quality of life. On the other hand, opposing theorists argue that creativity comes before mental illness. Upon stimulation of the creative impulses, either existing mental instabilities are exposed or increased emotional sensitivity leaves the patient more vulnerable to neurosis and psychosis.

109.20806 Analysis of Yellow Wallpaper
This paper analyzes the Yellow Wallpaper. It begins with the problem of postpartum blues and shows how the narrator takes the reader through the process of depression that changes reality. Charlotte Perkins Gilman?s short story, The Yellow Wall Paper, is about a woman with nervous problems who has been instructed by her husband who is a physician to rest. The rest cure drives the woman into more depression until the final day when her husband finds her entirely insane. The narrator reveals how the woman suffers a mild case of depression or nervousness, but the more time she reflects on the yellow wallpaper the more she begins to change reality into a fantasy world of being insane.

112.21279 ADHD Comorbidity: In Support of Adolescent Diagnosis
Review of one longitudinal study by Beiderman, et al. as it relates to the co morbidity of child and adolescent conduct and oppositional defiant disorders, specifically, ?Diagnostic continuity between child and adolescent ADHD: findings from a longitudinal clinical sample,? published in March 1998. Section headings include: background, hypothesis, method, results and conclusion. There is also a brief discussion of the variables used. The authors hypothesize and prove that adolescents should not be excluded from diagnosis for ADHD in clinical settings (both psychiatric and physician?s offices) just because they are nearly adults, because of the substantive evidence for co morbidity of ADHD. Their findings include strong evidence of familial transmission.
