Insane Hallucinations
Doctor Rufus Weylin from Crownsville Hospital Center for the Insane said my arm would feel better in a couple days time.
It all started when Kevin and I began having random hallucinations. We had no clue why they occurred or how they started, but they happened every day. Kevin and I were emitted to this “coo coo’s nest” two months ago by Kevin’s sister, Carol. She knew of our hallucinations and was starting to get worried, so she had this amazing idea to emit us because we are “insane.” We did not agree with Carol, but Kevin and I finally decided it was in best interest of both of us to go until we cleared our heads.
Every day since we have been at Crownsville, we take our medicine, have our daily session with Doctor Weylin, have group therapy

    Andy's Hallucinations

    • 130 Words
    • 1 Page

    You and I have similar views on Andy regarding his appearance and his calm demeanor. I also agree Andy engaged in good eye contact throughout the session but I also noticed how he would scan the room at times which the counselor was able to pick up on and ask him about it. I also mentioned Andy delusional thoughts in regard to his roommates planting a chip in his head and believing his roommates are out to hurt him. I also agree with Andy’s hallucinations in which he is hearing voices which he believe is his roommates plotting against him. One point you mentioned in your post which is Andy isolating himself in his room. The isolation can be feeding his hallucinations and delusional thoughts. Thanks for you post.…

    Advocates, such as Dr. Keith M. Parsons (Associate Professor of Philosophy, University of Houston, Clear Lake), contend the groups suffered a “mass” (or “collective”) hallucination, asserting that hallucinations are not always isolated, and “mass hallucinations are extremely well documented.” This argument is problematic in multiple respects. First, Parsons fails to provide empirical data and/or results from clinical experimentation, to validate his claim. Contrarily, Dr. Gary A. Sibcy (an expert in the field of clinical psychology)…

    Hallucinations In Kindred

    Dana, from the novel Kindred, experiences these so called “hallucinations” or as she would call them, “time travels”. There is no specific data showing what the real explanation for why these episodes occur but one possibility could be that Dana has the ability to time travel to past years meet people that had an effect on her in present day. When someone time travels, there body and mind goes with them and they disappear from reality. Time travel is usually by choice and the time traveler is aware of what they are doing, but for Dana’s case, she could be forced to do it with no control over it. There has been research done and some might say she suffers from schizophrenia, which is is a long-term mental disorder that involves the uncontrollable…

    Schizophrenia

    The Genain Quadruplets are sisters who are identical quadruplets. The Genain Quadruplets, Genain, a false name used to protect the family’s identity, which came from the Greek term meaning “dire birth.” The false names of the girls are as follows Nora, Iris, Myra, and Hester (named from oldest to youngest), these names were chosen to resemble the four letters in NIMH, the National Institute of Mental Health. Each sister was diagnosed with schizophrenia at different ages and each case of schizophrenia is at different levels of severity. Nora, the oldest, is sometimes identified as the brightest of the four girls, was hospitalized at age 22 and never lived independently for an extended period of time. Iris, the second sister, spent 12 years in a psychiatric hospital starting at the age of 22. Myra, the third sister, is the only one to marry and have children. She did not experience delusions or hallucinations until she was in her forties, so it is questioned if she has schizoaffective disorder (Schizoaffective disorder is a condition in which a person experiences a combination of schizophrenia symptoms such as hallucinations or delusions and of mood disorder symptoms, such as depression) or if she has schizophrenia like the rest of her sisters. Hester, the youngest sister, is the most severely ill. She was taken out of school in the eleventh grade and never worked outside the home.…

    Reefer Madness

    • 1095 Words
    • 5 Pages

    In Schlosser’s first chapter “Reefer Madness,” he gathers plausible historical facts and counter-arguments to argue that the punishments for marijuana use are extraneous and unreasonable. He suggests that if the United States government decriminalizes marijuana for personal use, it would save the time and money that could be spent on more serious endeavors, and by modifying marijuana laws it would fit better into our society today. Schlosser explains that many marijuana laws are so strict that many people that are associated with marijuana and have gotten caught by law enforcements gets punishments that are far more serious than a murderer would get punished. He successfully persuades his readers to accept the view point he has by showing many plausible historical facts and counter-arguments, which proves that marijuana laws should be decriminalize and/or modified.…
