In Disease, we are working with different disorders that people have. This unit was very fun because I was able to learn new things about different disorders that people have to go through. This is my second AP in this class and I feel that I did better on this project than my first one because I made sure that I was using the rubric properly. We used the DSM 5 to help with this project because it helped us look for symptoms of our disorder. We watched simulations of different disorders and they gave me different viewpoints on everything. When we were watching these videos, I was thinking to myself, just saying that everyone is the same. People with disorders are NOT weird. They are unique.
