Grief Counselor Speech
Hello, Dani welcome to the course; I am also majoring psychology. I believe your dream of becoming a grief counselor/therapist will help so many people who are suffering. I am similar to you in my non-work life, so shy until I am comfortable around the person. Additionally, when I am familiar with people my introvert ways disappear. I know this course will give us the knowledge and confidence to conquer this public speaking anxiety that we might be able to help others!

    On California’s political calendar, physician-assisted suicide is considered to be a “done-deal” as the End-of-Life Option Act (SB 128) has many supporters. Their message is clear: like women’s suffrage, gay marriage, and higher minimum wage, it's inevitable that physician-assisted suicide becomes legal because, after all, it is a human right to make that decision.…

This decision you are hypothetically making stares so many people in the face each day. What would you do if you were told you had only six or less moths to live? On top of knowing you have so little time, you, in those few months, will experience severe pain, discomfort, and emotional distress beyond comprehension. Therefore, I ask you again, death or death?…

    Grief is not essentially classified medically as a mental illness, however the symptoms are similar to depression. Although there is currently an exemption for bereavement in the diagnostic criteria that allows for such symptoms to persist for up to two months after the death of a loved one, more than two months of persistent and pervasive depressive symptoms maybe diagnosed as a major depressive disorder (MDD) in the context of bereavement. These symptoms may include a depressed mood, anxiety and sadness, lack of interest in re-engaging in the world or of forming new relationships. This exemption acknowledges that while grieving can look and feel virtually identical to depression, it is also recognised that it is not depression, as we know it. The new version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) will remove the bereavement exemption from the diagnostic criteria and the very appropriate reaction to the death of a loved one described above may be diagnosed as MDD.…

    Assisted Suicide Speech

    • 150 Words
    • 1 Page

    People all over the world have a misconception about what the term ‘assisted suicide’ truly entails. Assisted suicide is suicide committed with the aid of another person, most times a caretaker, family member or physician. Assisted suicide is becoming more and more common across the world. With the House of Lords trying to pass a bill to legalize assisted suicide in the UK and the continuously rising rates in Switzerland. While there is no federal law involving assisted suicide in the U.S, the act is legal in five states. Some people like to believe that they are helping their terminally or mentally ill family member or friend when it comes to this act, but are they really? I believe that the government should set boundaries and explain in…

    Every November 1st the day after Halloween, the Latino community celebrates the Day of the Dead. This year was my first time going to one, which was located in the National Museum of Mexican Art in Pilsen, IL. When we first started to walk up to the building there was already a long line outside of the doors, all the way past the playgrounds and down the street. I went with my cousins and my sister to the festival. We decided not to wait in line and went to the others exhibits they were showing in the baseball fields, where they were showing their ofrendas. Ofrendas are a collection of objects placed on a ritual altar during the tradition of the Latino Dia de los Muertos celebration. They also had a mariachi playing in the background as…
