Using the skills you've learned so far in Introduction to
Psychology, please write a brief self-assessment describing
how things are going in your freshman year. Presenting Concerns: The Patient, Leigh Nolan (that would be
me), has just started her first year at Stiles College. She
has decided to major in psychology (even though her parents
would rather she study Tarot cards, not Rorschach blots).
Patient has always been very good at helping her friends
with their problems, but when it comes to solving her
own...not so much. Patient has a tendency to over analyze things, particularly
when the opposite sex is involved. Like why doesn't Andrew,
her boyfriend of over a year, ever invite her to spend the
night? Or why can't she commit to taking the next step in
their relationship? And why does his roommate Nathan dislike
her so much? More importantly, why did Nathan have a
starring role in a much-more-than-friendly dream? Aggravating factors include hyper-competitive fellow psych
majors, a professor who's badly in need of her own
psychoanalysis, and mentoring a middle-school-aged girl who
thinks Patient is, in a word, naive. Diagnosis: Psych Major Syndrome

Re: Psych Major Syndrome
Leigh sounds like a great, complex character! (Krysten Hager 11:49am October 18, 2009)
