The film Shutter Island depicts the story of a World War 2 veteran Andrew Laeddis and his experience with mental illness, specifically portraying the memory phenomena of repressed and recovered memories also known as dissociative amnesia and dissociative fugue (Kikuchi et.al. 2010). The illness is triggered by a psychologically traumatic event, which included discovering his wife had murdered his three children, and in response, he killing his wife (Kikuchi et.al. 2010). Additionally, the portrayal exhibits many of the criteria for a diagnosis of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) (Friedman et.al. 1994). The DSM-V now classifies dissociative symptoms as an additional subcategory of PTSD diagnosis, however, the film concentrates

Charlie shows symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder and anxiety. He seems to also suffer from depression, which can root from PTSD. The symptoms that were correct of PTSD were having flashbacks of traumatic events. The symptoms of anxiety that were correct were worrying about feeling guilty, and not becoming happy. The symptoms of depression that were correct were blaming yourself for everything, and always putting yourself down. The things that were realistic about PTSD were having flashbacks, feeling guilty, not wanting to become happy, blaming yourself, putting yourself down, and worrying; for example, Charlie became mentally unstable as a result of being sexually abused as a child. He blocked (repressed) thoughts like that out, and they never come

For my diagnosis, I diagnose Charlie with having clinical depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. The reason I believe that Charlie has depression and PTSD is because he had exhibits symptoms and certain behaviors throughout the film. According to Mayo Clinic (n.d.), Depression can be defined as one who has persistent sadness or anhedonia with an addition of other symptoms that can affect the person’s thoughts and behaviors. Mayo Clinic (n.d.) also lists a few signs/symptoms of this mood disorder which applies in Charlie’s case. Symptoms of depression can include suicidal thoughts, lack of energy, sadness, loss of interest, feeling guilty/worthless, anxiety, slow movements/speaking, and sleep disturbances (Mayo Clinic,

Charlie Kelmeckis is described as a “wallflower.” He is socially awkward and likes to keep to himself. He also really enjoys reading and writing. Charlie cares deeply for others, but has a lot of guilt about past events. For example, Charlie believes that the death of his Aunt Helen is his fault, because she was killed in a car accident on an errand to get Charlie a birthday gift. Charlie has Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Anxiety, and Depression. His mental instability was mostly caused by being sexually abused by his Aunt Helen before the age of seven. Charlie experiences flashbacks of his Aunt over the course of the movie, but all are portrayed in a positive light.

The film Mind of a Rampage Killer, which first aired in the aftermath of the Newtown massacre, highlights questions at the forefront of all of our minds: what compels a human-being to commit the most inhuman of crimes? As a society, we see the gruesome images of violence every day, but do we understand how children can grow up to become ruthless killers? Furthermore, how can we prevent another event, such as the Newtown massacre, from occurring again? In this documentary, produced and directed by Miles O’Brien, NOVA investigates the roots of violence, including neurological, environmental and psychological factors.

1984, George Orwell used fear in the novel to cause people to ignore the parties’ actions and transform their reality. The fear the party implants in the citizens is how they have complete control over Oceania, and provides harsh punishments if they decide to go against Big Brother. Therefore, making the population of Oceania obedient to Big Brother’s laws because they are scared of the consequences of breaking the law and being tortured. Citizens fear for their own lives and that is why they do not disobey the Party. In 1984, fear is a method that is used for manipulation.

The two games designed by Justin De Witt, Castle Panic which was released in 2009, and Dead Panic, released in 2013, that have very similar mechanics and gameplay. Castle Panic is a game about defending six towers from being destroyed by incoming monsters, while Dead Panic is about surviving and escaping a zombie apocalypse in a cabin in the woods. The two games have some major similarities that they share, but also some important differences that make themselves unique. Both games can have 2 to 6 players, but there are other similarities that link these two games, such as the enemies in the games. Each game has enemies on small tokens that enter the game when drawn from a bag.

Panic disorder is something that develops for no apparent reason. It causes repeated and unexpected attacks of intense fear. It can last for a few minutes or even hours. The people that have this disorder usually live in fear of having another attack. They are afraid to be alone, or to be far from medical help. The feelings of intense fear can trigger severe physical reactions. This disorder is very real and treatable.

Throughout life, we are all afflicted with a burden on our shoulders at some point in time, that burden can come in many different sizes, at many different times and in many different ways. That burden is something most people commonly encounter and typically hate, stress. In the video, Stress: Portrait of a Killer, we had the opportunity to view stress from a scientific perspective through studies that all tie together in discovering different things about stress and identifying it as a true killer. Majority of the film is looks at stress through the study of baboon, which can be easily related to humans and stress, like we saw in some of the other studies mentioned. When baboons (and humans/mammals) undergo stress the body responds to the stress and releases two hormones, epinephrine (adrenaline) and glucocorticoid.

All these factors caused a lot of stress for him and contributed to his depression. He began to feel like life was not worth the struggle anymore. He had tried reading all sorts of self-help books to motivate himself and provide relief but none really helped. He began to feel worthless and hopeless for not being able to overcome his panic attack. He realised that his anxiety was baseless but he simply could not control it whenever it

Annie states that the Agoraphobia is a result of her overthinking how people view her. Throughout the interview, Annie often demonstrates how she thinks others view her—“why did she just run out” or “she is crazy”. During the interview, it becomes clear that Annie is mainly afraid of judgment by other people.

His meltdown in Alan's office one could have seen from a mile away, with it the ultimate heralding of displacement for Charlie's pain, and final straw to let Charlie live his life alone. (Displacement is but one of many defense mechanisms that involves shifting aggressive or hurtful emotions away from one’s self to a more “acceptable” or less threatening outlet.) Yet for most who watched the movie most likely, Charlie didn't get immediately better right away to their surprise. In honest words taken from an episode of House I once watched, he uttered a line that rings particularly true in this circumstance: "We tell ourselves it helps. To make [them] talk about it. To help... heal. When all you've done is make [someone] cry." After Charlie's reveal of his true past he seems to be by all standards progressing. That is until he sets out to kill himself, if not by his own gun then a police officer's. In all three main areas of his mental make-up Charlie has been both affected and ravaged, his entire being but a husk of what he accomplished four years prior. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is illustrated through Charlie as a life-changer, a psychological diagnosis that alters your entire core of being without proper therapy or treatment. (Diagnosis in
