Eating Disorders
As indicated in the Class Notes, eating disorders are the most lethal, killing the most people, of all of the psychological disorders, including depression. I am providing two videos that address these issues, one by Dr. Laura Hill and one by Cara Peterson & Afftene Taylor.

When you read and hear about these disorders, what are your thoughts and reactions? Since 25% of individuals struggling with anorexia and bulimia are men, discuss your thoughts. While we are still struggling to find the best treatment, we know that societal pressures impact individuals in how they feel about their weight. The most popular form of purging is exercise.
One in ten of us will have an eating disorder at some point in our lifetime. Please, share your insights.
The following are some resources for individuals seeking help:

Gürze Books=https://www.gurzebooks.com/
We also have a counseling center at the MGA campus that can help with any of these disorders.
Substance Abuse
3. I would like for you to watch and comment on a video that I also have embedded in the Class Notes as the discussion topic: Everything you know about addiction is wrong. After you watch the video, write your thoughts about it. How do Johann Hari’s comments connect with your understanding of addiction?
Everything you know about addiction is wrong=
4. How does it compare to the ones we read about in the text? What are your experiences with people who have had addictions? Respond to other students’ thoughts. Addiction touches all of our lives. It would be difficult to live in the world today without knowing someone who has struggled with drug/alcohol abuse or one of the addictive disorders. We discuss caffeine addiction in the Class Notes, and perhaps many of us have consumed more caffeine than we should (?).
APA FORMAT all urls have been given to cite including book lectures from professor. also personal addiction just do something coffee related.
