Research Paper

My research paper is going to be about behavioral and personality disorders. I will be addressing these main points:

  • Different types of disorders
  • How the disorder forms
  • The effects on people's lifestyles
  • Different medication and technology treatments
  • How genetics plays a role in disorders
  • The symptoms
  • When most individuals are diagnosed with a disorder
  • What types of therapy are available
  • How living with a disorder affects the person's attitude or outlook
  • Particular struggles people go through
  • The most extreme disorders
  • The least severe disorders

I thought this would be an interesting topic because I took AP Psych last year. I think anything to do with the mind and personality is really fascinating so I'd like to learn more about the specific disorders, how people live with the disorder, and how it can be treated.
