By admin

Locate a movie, television series, or streaming series that portrays a character with an anxiety, stress, or phobia disorder (For example, characters from the movies: The Aviator with Leonardo DiCaprio, What About Bob? with Bill Murray, The Truman Show with Jim Carrey, What’s Eating Gilbert Grape? with Leonardo DiCaprio or Analyze That with Robert De Niro or TV shows: The Big Bang Theory with any character, Monk with Tony Shalhoub or streaming series: This Is Us with Sterling K. Brown, Scrubs with any character, or One Day at a Time (2017) with Justina Machado).
In an essay of 1,000-1,500 words, address the following:
Explain how stress is related to the disorder displayed by the character chosen (anxiety, stress, or phobia disorder).
List some of the irrational or abnormal beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors the characters displayed, and how they manifest. Provide specific examples.
Using current DSM and ICD diagnostic codes, identify a possible diagnosis for this character.
Identify a psychological model that best explains the cause of the symptoms/behaviors (i.e., biological, cognitive).
Based on this model, explain a possible treatment plan, including some ways the character can modify the stress and reduce anxiety (cope).
Use the GCU Library databases and include two to four scholarly sources to support your claims. In addition to the scholarly resources from the library, students may include past classroom materials, textbook, and credible internet-based sources (.org, .edu, .mil, .gov).
