GILA

Ketika zaman sekolah, selalu saya dengar ustaz dan ustazah saya mengingatkan pelajar-pelajar untuk tidak tidur selepas solat asar atau ketika waktu asar.

Ada yang mengambil mudah dan ada juga yang mengambil serius akan hal ini. Tapi kebanyakannya hanya endah tak endah sahaja. Bagi saya pula, hanya ambil tahu tapi tetap juga tidur petang. Kalau tak tidur pon sebab nak tengok rancangan tv macam cerita cina atau cerita jopun.

Persoalannya sekarang kenapa kita ada sikap sambil lewa sedangkan sudah acapkali hal ini di utarakan oleh ramai orang tua-tua maupon para ustaz ustazah?

Jawapan saya ialah kerana kita membayangkan perkataan gila seperti seorang yang compang camping berkeliaran di merata tempat, kusut masai, cakap sorang-sorang, ketawa sorang-sorang, dan macam-macam lagi yang buruk-buruk dan tak enak didengar. Berapa ramai dalam kalangan kita yang jadi GIla seperti itu hany kerana tidur petang atau waktu asar? Seingat saya, tak ada yang saya kenal jadi begitu. NONE!

Tapi jika saya katakan terdapat berbagai sakit psikologi yang mana pesakitnya kelihatan normal dan biasa wujud dalam kalangan kita, maka isu ini adalah berasas sekali. Oleh itu, mari kita lihat senarai sakit psikologinyang wujud dalam dunia hari ini. Sila klik link kat bawah ya.. :P

Selain yang tersenarai di atas, saya akan highlightkan 2 jenis masalah pdikologi untuk pengetahuan semua. Antaranya ialah; SCHIZOPHRENIA, & DISSOCIATIVE PERSONALITY DISORDER

1. Schizophrenia: Definition

Schizophrenia is a psychotic disorder (or a group of disorders) marked by severely impaired thinking, emotions, and behaviors. Schizophrenic patients are typically unable to filter sensory stimuli and may have enhanced perceptions of sounds, colors, and other features of their environment. Most schizophrenics, if untreated, gradually withdraw from interactions with other people, and lose their ability to take care of personal needs and grooming.The prevalence of schizophrenia is thought to be about 1% of the population around the world; it is thus more common than diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, or multiple sclerosis. In the United States and Canada, patients with schizophrenia fill about 25% of all hospital beds. The disorder is considered to be one of the top ten causes of long-term disability worldwide.

Description

The course of schizophrenia in adults can be divided into three phases or stages. In the acute phase, the patient has an overt loss of contact with reality (psychotic episode) that requires intervention and treatment. In the second or stabilization phase, the initial psychotic symptoms have been brought under control but the patient is at risk for relapse if treatment is interrupted. In the third or maintenance phase, the patient is relatively stable and can be kept indefinitely on antipsychotic medications. Even in the maintenance phase, however, relapses are not unusual and patients do not always return to full functioning.The English term schizophrenia comes from two Greek words that mean "split mind." It was observed around 1908, by a Swiss doctor named Eugen Bleuler, to describe the splitting apart of mental functions that he regarded as the central characteristic of schizophrenia.Recently, some psychotherapists have begun to use a classification of schizophrenia based on two main types. People with Type I, or positive schizophrenia, have a rapid (acute) onset of symptoms and tend to respond well to drugs. They also tend to suffer more from the "positive" symptoms, such as delusions and hallucinations. People with Type II, or negative schizophrenia, are usually described as poorly adjusted before their schizophrenia slowly overtakes them. They have predominantly "negative" symptoms, such as withdrawal from others and a slowing of mental and physical reactions (psychomotor retardation).There are five subtypes of schizophrenia:

2. Dissociative Personality Disorder

Definition:

Dissociative disorders are so-called because they are marked by a dissociation from or interruption of a person's fundamental aspects of waking consciousness (such as one's personal identity, one's personal history, etc.). Dissociative disorders come in many forms, the most famous of which is dissociative identity disorder (formerly known as multiple personality disorder). All of the dissociative disorders are thought to stem from trauma experienced by the individual with this disorder. The dissociative aspect is thought to be a coping mechanism -- the person literally dissociates himself from a situation or experience too traumatic to integrate with his conscious self. Symptoms of these disorders, or even one or more of the disorders themselves, are also seen in a number of other mental illnesses, including post-traumatic stress disorder, panic disorder, and obsessive compulsive disorder.
