There are baby bunnies in our yard! I almost ran then over with the lawnmower. They're the size of the palm of my hand. They're in a little scrape by the base of one of our pine trees. I hope the mom comes and moves them soon 'cause that is not a safe place. posted by Rachel 8/8/2002 . . .
Being a psych major, crazy people are of interest to me. I remember learning that the definition of psychosis was a loss of contact with reality, as when hallucinations or delusions are present. The most classic type of psychosis is schizophrenia. Nearly everyone is familiar with the stereotpe of a paranoid schizophrenic beset with delusions of persecution.Is it possible for an entire culture to suffer from such a syndrome? I believe it is. Exhibit 1. (more evidence to follow later.)From one of my abnormal psych textbooks:"We hold that behavior is abnormal, a manifestation of mental disorder, if it is both persistent and in serious degree contrary to the continued well-being of the individual and/ or that of the human community of which the individual is a member." posted by Rachel 8/8/2002 . . .
