Evan's Perspective Analysis

All of the problems fall to the Social Anxiety disorder he has since he was very young. He married a girl he knew from high school and almost had no other dating history. According to the researcher’s observation to Jim when they first met. He was behaving normally since he did shake hands and smile gently, except that he was pretty shy and avoid to make any eye contacts (Thomas A. Richards, 2014). Based on the introduction of Jim’s situation, it is known that his wife named Lesley totally do all the job of making social contacts. When it comes to a parent-teacher conference, Lesley will go. In restaurant, his wife orders. When the family was ordering out-take food, Lesley will make the phone call. Also, Jim had no friends except his wife simply because of his disorder. He states that all the situations happened only because he was too shy and too afraid. All the things went on well with his wife’s help except one thing that he could not escape social connections on his job. Jim worked at a small, locally-owned record and tap store. After his store had been sold by its owner to a national record chain, he had to make contacts with his customers. According to his own description, he mentioned that every time he made a phone call his voice was weak and low, he could not even let the words out. Jim’s case is the typical example of having Social Anxiety Disorder. In his situation, the more he felt nervous and anxious and the

Paul loves soccer. All he wanted to do was to play on the Lake Windsor Middle School soccer team because it's the only way for him to fit in at this new school. Everything was going according to plan, Mrs. Gates was showing him and his mother around the school until they stopped in her office to fill out some paper work and discuss some things. They were all talking about what Paul’s interests were and the topic fell on soccer. He made it obvious that he was a soccer player, specifically a goalie. Mrs. Gates then explained the IEP to Mrs. Fisher and they headed out. Paul was not excited anymore to attend school at Lake Windsor all because of the stupid IEP. Mrs. Fisher decided it would be right to fill out the form, but it had actually ruined any chances for Paul being able to play soccer. She thought she was doing the right thing and helping him out in school, but being labeled “visually impaired” was not easy. “‘ What are you doing here? Are you alright?’ ‘I got kicked off the team.’ ‘What? What happened?’ ‘Coach Walski said I’m in a program for the handicapped so I’m off the team.’ ‘That’s… that’s outrageous! He can’t do that.’ Well he just did. He said they can’t get insurance for me because I’m a handicapped program. You know all about that. Right, Mom?’ ‘Me? What do you mean?’ ‘You told them I’m handicapped! You told them I’m visually impaired!’ ‘Darling you are. I just told them the truth.’ ‘That’s not the truth. I can see! Don’t you know that? Why did you fill out that stupid form when you know I can see? You saw me play in Houston. You saw me make thirty saves in one game! Did I look visually impaired then?’ ‘Paul, darling, I did not know that the IEP form had anything to do with playing on the soccer team. I would have never filled it out if I did. I know this is important to you.’”(63,64) Paul is really mad at his mom for choosing to fill

It was Max Cipriani’s first day of tryouts for Dominion Middle School and he was eager to get going. Dominion was only about 5 minutes away from Max’s home by car. Mom, his brother Sam, and Max get there 10 minutes early to kick around for a bit. Max, having already met the coach from last soccer season just said hi and runs to play. He kicks the ball around with some friends from last season. They shoot around on Max, who was the substitute goalie from last year’s team. The sound of the soccer ball and being stopped was continuous. Boom, Clap. Max was a kangaroo, jumping back and forth to block the shots. A couple shots were blocked by the goal post.

His little legs churned as fast as they could driving him straight at his opponent. I sensed Matthew wasn’t too sure of himself since he had never expressed any confidence playing our football games or in practices; but this time, the young defender responsible for guarding him was smaller, and Matt had the advantage. He staccato stepped and faked running to the right just as we had planned. His opponent accepting the feigned shift, ran in the misdirection. Suddenly, Matt was all alone in the end-zone; and the football, a perfectly thrown pass designed for Matt, was spiraling toward his small opened hands. The ball hit his palms and bounced skyward, but Matt quickly reached up and grabbed the football securing his touchdown. The families in the stands cheered, and Matt returned to the sideline with a smile and a little more confidence. I coach Matt’s third grade 7 on 7 football team, and this is my third year of competitive football league coaching. Coaching is a luxury I afford myself with my limited free time, and it brings me a lot of satisfaction.

“The Prodigy has put on a show tonight!” the announcer says, when the 18 year old all star center scored his third goal of the night. The kid’s got everything going for him, a nice house outside Toronto, Ontario, parents who both have money, and a god given talent on the ice. He’s out there for the final minute of the game, up 3-2 after his third goal gave them the lead. His job, protect the lead and win the game. He wins the face-off, gets the puck back from his linemate, and cuts in over the blue line. As he approaches the net, he dodges a hit, but the defender falls on the outside of his knee, collapsing it as he took the shot. The tv broadcaster yells “OTTERS GOAL! What a play by Laflamme!... Uh oh, he’s having trouble getting up folks.” Laflamme gets up slowly, favoring his left leg as he skated back to center ice to finish the last 12 seconds of the game. His coach, however, called him to the bench to sit him down. “Great job bud. You did what we needed.” Coach Wilson said. Thomas replied, hiding his

Perspectives are a weird thing, they can either help lives, or ruin them. Perspectives shape the world, and how we view the world. Perspectives is the freedom of speech, and the censorship of speech. Perspectives are many things, they come in all shapes and forms. And for mine, NAPLAN shouldn't set minimal standards to qualify for HSC.

It was a cold day in November as I scampered out of my Biology class, unsatisfied with the grade that I had received on my exam. I rushed to the basement of my campus’s athletic facility brimming over with frustration and quickly tossed aside my school supplies in exchange for a pair of soccer cleats and goalkeeper gloves. I threw over my grass-stained gray cotton sweatshirt, stepped outside to the bite of an approaching winter and joined my comrades in our warm-up lines. The boys were all laughing and talking about what happened over the weekend as we prepared for another practice. Being surrounded by my teammates made me forget about my worries and allowed me to disappear into the routine of physical activity. My collegiate varsity soccer

The program started on a crisp, fall afternoon in October. I climbed eagerly out of my car and stepped onto the damp grass of the Joyce soccer field. This complex had been my second home for the last seven years. All the blood, sweat, and tears I had put into training here, building up my skill set. I was snapped back into reality as my mom pulled out of the parking lot and back into the street. I waved goodbye and made my way

Based on the intake, Dave’s anxiety has been identified as an ongoing problem in need of treatment. It is primarily manifested in a struggle to make friends due to his excessive worry about himself, his mother, and things. I believe Dave would benefit from utilizing CBT therapy. Cognitive therapy has been shown to work the best for treating social anxiety disorder. It focuses on identifying, understanding, and changing thinking and behavior patterns. In Dave’s case, challenging and neutralizing unhelpful thoughts would serve him well as he identified himself as an introvert and shy person. It appears that his struggle stems from his “appearance” the way he walks. As a result, he suffered from it that produced anxiety, and low self-esteem. Additionally,

Furthermore, this patient meets the criteria for Social Anxiety Disorder (F40.10) as evidenced by poor relationship with people, inability to make or keep friends, fear of panicking or doing something wrong as well as inability to communicate or associate with people who are not members of his family.

Kinsman describes how in certain situations she simply wanted to disappear; the fear of being in public was overwhelming. She also describes her feeling on how her disorder affects family and friends. Kinsman was always paranoid that her husband was unhappy with her, due to her not being able to do simple things like going for a walk in the park, dining out or ever Christmas shopping. “Anxiety is not easily explainable or analytical, at least not to those who fortunately don’t suffer from it.” Anxiety consumes you, and can be debilitating. You begin to alienate friends and family, you perhaps lie to them to avoid attending gatherings, because you are too embarrassed to confess you’re afraid to be around people.

It known as the anxious and fearful Cluster. It includes avoidant, obsessive-compulsive and dependent personality disorder. They all have a genetic association to anxiety. Individuals who are shy, timid, and socially inhibited characterize the avoidant personality disorder. They have extremely low self-esteem, and see themselves as incapable, inadequate and undesirable. This people want close relationships, but rarely take social risks. As a result, they avoid social situations, which makes it harder for them to meet people. They are also hypersensitive to rejection and negative feedback, becoming even more withdrawn when that happens.

Avoidant personality disorder is an anxious personality disorder characterized by extreme levels of discomfort in public, beliefs in one’s relative inadequacy, and sensitivity to criticism (Comer 425). Oftentimes, people with this condition prefer to be solitary over risking rejection by the outside world (Avoidant); they do whatever possible to keep others from gaining the opportunity to hurt them. Some psychologists distinguish avoidant personality disorder from social anxiety disorder (Comer 425) while others believe they should not be considered separate disorders due to the significant symptom overlap and the frequency of co-occurrence (Nelson-Gray 31).

This type of Anxiety Disorder has a direct correlation relating to social situations. A person experiencing this disorder has a chronic fear of other people’s perceptions of them. They are especially likely to avoid any situation where they are being observed by others such as giving presentations or activities that must be performed in front of an audience, large or small. In extreme circumstances where social anxiety disorder exists, a person will avoid social situations all together and will become a “hermit” in their own individual abode. This disorder is impairing to one’s normal life functioning because it often affects a person’s ability to perform the essential duties in a work environment. It also deters them from engaging in typical conversations because the fear of being embarrassed or judged is so extreme (Fleming, 2012).

He’s acting out at school and drawing very disturbing pictures. He thinks that his dad doesn’t understand what he’s going through, and he could be right. We don’t see him and his dad have too many positive interactions with one another. We see a lot of positive interactions between Rosie and Benjamin but never Dylan and Benjamin. We see that the conflict that Dylan experiences involves things that happen in everyday life especially after they move to the zoo. Dylan says that he has too much homework to help out around the zoo, and he’s upset that his friends don’t come to see him. Changes in an adolescent's life such as changes in school, peers, friendships, dating and movement toward independence all take an affect on parent-adolescent relationships (Santrock, 2016, p.
