Timimi (2004) proposes that ADHD is
solely a social/cultural construct, arguing that the stresses of modern Western
culture have set the stage for the emergence of the disorder. Think about
stresses that are prevalent today that might not have existed 50 years ago
(such as the stresses associated with the possibility of being plugged into
technology 24 hours a day). What kinds of disorders might we see now that we
would not have seen 50 years ago? To fully understand the
concept of the point of no return and the process of emotion elicitation,
follow these steps:
- Read “What Happened in 1973 Important News and Events, Key
Technology and Popular Culture.” - Watch TIMELINE 1973-Everything That Happened In ’73.”
- Watch “A History of Mental Illness.”
In
250 words or more, using APA style
in-text citations, be creative and come up with one or more new
disorders, labeling the disorder and describing the etiology, symptoms, and
prognosis.
