Reason: Making it clearer
1. Do you think schizophrenia is caused by genetic factors?
Yes
2. What do you think makes someone abnormal?
I study psychology lol so I'll say deviation from the social norm
3. How common do you think abnormality is?
Common
4. Do you believe that you are born abnormal or that abonormal behaviour is learnt?
ummm Learn it
5. What are your views on the causes of depression?
Too many to list, I think it can be biological, but more often it's caused by environmental factors like stress, a family breakup, big trauma in past of present..
6. Do you think that agressive behaviour is environmental or biological?
enviromental
7. Do any members of your family have the same phobias as you?
Yes
8. Do you think it's difficult to be abnormal in today's society?
It's easier than it was 50 years ago, but it's still difficult
Let the Force be with you
I'm not short, I'm space efficient
1. Do you think schizophrenia is caused by genetic factors?
Yes.
2. What do you think makes someone abnormal?
When they behave or have thoughts which society deems unusual and undesirable.
3. How common do you think abnormality is?
Occasional.
4. Do you believe that you are born abnormal or that abonormal behaviour is learnt?
Neither, i think you might be born with a personality which puts you at greater probablility of going against the norm and then you adapt this different way of viewing the world which then makes your behaviour "abnormal" (hope that makes sense).
5. What are your views on the causes of depression?
Genetic predisposition, life and childhood experiences, world view.
6. Do you think that agressive behaviour is environmental or biological?
Both. Biological predisposition but this may then be amplified by environmental stimuli.
7. Do any members of your family have the same phobias as you?
No.
8. Do you think it's difficult to be abnormal in today's society?
Yes - society is very judgemental and most people don't have the time to "deal with" abnormal people.
Hope that helped.
Even as the stone of the fruit must break
that its heart may stand in the sun,
so must you know pain.
There are only two ways in which one can live their life. One is as though nothing is a miracle, the other is as though everything is.
1. Do you think schizophrenia is caused by genetic factors?
Yes but also environmental factors
2. What do you think makes someone abnormal?
as I believe normal does not exist so abnormal can't. everyone becomes ill at some point and you do your best to remidy that.
3. How common do you think abnormality is?
Very common I think psychological problems are very common
4. Do you believe that you are born abnormal or that abonormal behaviour is learnt?
I'm not abnormal, I am a normal person with problems and they I think are both leant and inherited
5. What are your views on the causes of depression?
Again you can be born with a depressive personality, I think I was.
6. Do you think that agressive behaviour is environmental or biological?
Both, I hope mine is treatable though.
7. Do any members of your family have the same phobias as you?
No.
8. Do you think it's difficult to be abnormal in today's society?
Again I'm not abnormal, but I think in any society mental illness is difficult as it is harder to understand than physical illness.
"I laugh, I love, I hope, I try, I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry. And I know you do the same too so we are not that different you and I.
You'll be surprised to know how far you can go from the point where you thought it was the end.
1. Do you think schizophrenia is caused by genetic factors?
Partly.
2. What do you think makes someone abnormal?
Mental illness can, but not necessarily. Illicit drug abuse in the long term can as well. But it could just be a personality quirk.
3. How common do you think abnormality is?
Common.
4. Do you believe that you are born abnormal or that abonormal behaviour is learnt?
Born with it.
5. What are your views on the causes of depression?
Genetic and environmental, but more commonly environmental.
6. Do you think that agressive behaviour is environmental or biological?
Both.
7. Do any members of your family have the same phobias as you?
No.
8. Do you think it's difficult to be abnormal in today's society?
Not really.
PM me if you want a PDF copy of the ICD-10or the Mental Health Act 1983/2007. I ALSO HAVE THE DSM-V BOOK and am a pharmacology student.
I have a visual impairment / neurological problems so I need people to type in clear text and no funny fonts. Also excuse any typos, my vision blocks things out.
I have autism and have problems communicating, PMs included.
Just becasue I type well doesn't mean I speak well. I am only part time verbal.
1. Do you think schizophrenia is caused by genetic factors?
kind of... i also believe it can be a factor of how easy you absorb things around you too
2. What do you think makes someone abnormal?
i never thought of anyone as abnormal but in terms of societies norms i think it's mainly being different in a way that doesnt fit the social convention
3. How common do you think abnormality is?
it's very common
4. Do you believe that you are born abnormal or that abonormal behaviour is learnt?
a bit of both... i think i picked up somethings from my parents genes but i also learned abnormal behaviour
5. What are your views on the causes of depression?
Genetic, environment and weather you grow up around someone with depression
6. Do you think that agressive behaviour is environmental or biological?
its definatly both in my opinion
7. Do any members of your family have the same phobias as you?
Not that i know of
8. Do you think it's difficult to be abnormal in today's society?
i dont think its hard to be abnormal no...
I hope that helps you out :)

"i'd rather hate you for everything you are, than ever love you for something you are not, i'd rather you hate me for everything i am than have you love me love me for something i can't BE!"
1. Do you think schizophrenia is caused by genetic factors?
No.
2. What do you think makes someone abnormal?
generally i think abnormal is based around what is the norm.... but this changes in different surroundings as to what is classed as normal
i dont personally think anything in particular causes you to be abnormal......
however when i think of my depression and sh i think i am abnormal because its not "normal" to do it even tho i know i'm not alone
3. How common do you think abnormality is?
Common.
4. Do you believe that you are born abnormal or that abonormal behaviour is learnt?
i think mainly it is environmental HOWEVER i believe there are chemical influences which may be predisposed in your chemical dna make-up
5. What are your views on the causes of depression?
chemical changes in the brain,
hormonal influences
def environmental.... how you are brought up, whether you have been SA, bullied-physically and mentally etc
6. Do you think that agressive behaviour is environmental or biological?
um...prob mainly environmental, i think it is how you learn to deal with things throughout your life, eg. if you are able to work through the problems rationally or whether you thoughts are ignored or put down and you learn to bottle things up and then one day it has to come out and to get frustration out it presents itself in a different more uncontrolled way 7. Do any members of your family have the same phobias as you?
Yes. need for straight lines, need for tidyness, dislike change
8. Do you think it's difficult to be abnormal in today's society?
i think probably it is easier because things are better understood now-still not great but where as you used to be locked up in a mental home with any form of mental illness where as nowadays it is slightly more accepted that mental illness is the same as any other illness, we dont chose it (altho somepeople CLEARLY have set views on mental illness)
hope this helps, sorry i know i dont always make much sense xxx
