1. Discuss examples of obsessive-compulsive behavior that occur in everyday life and that are not considered abnormal.
2. Anxiety disorders cause significant stress and problems for individuals suffering from them. Look at the symptoms and discuss which disorder you think is the most impairing and which is the least impairing.
There are two parts to this assignment. Part one is your original Discussion Board Post, which is a direct response to the questions/articles posed in the assigned week and is due the Thursday of the assigned week. Part two is your response to another student’s original post due by Sunday of the assigned week. Discussion Boards will open 8:00am on the Monday of that week. Initial Discussion Board Postings are due Thursday by midnight as an independent post (e.g., Do not post your Discussion Questions by responding to another student’s post. Create a new post to answer your questions). Then, read each other’s comments/answers and respond with at least one additional post with your thoughts, reactions, personal experience, etc. Discussion Board responses to peers are due the Sunday (midnight) of the week assigned. Discussion Board responses are NOT the place to voice your personal frustrations or otherwise “soap box.” This is an opportunity for students from diverse occupational backgrounds to learn from one another. Students are expected to reference sources when appropriate.
