Brain Lecture 5 Temporal Lobe Schizophrenia Hallucination

Also, will I need chemistry to study this branch of psychology?

I find this absolutley fascinating. I was wondering if anyone could advise me? I'm a 17 year old student studying in England, and Psychology is a career that I would love to go in to. I am thinking about perhaps specialising further after my degree in a area shown in the video. I was just wondering what the course in the video refers to...is it cognitive neuroscience? or neuropsychology? I was also wondering about career options after this? Any information would be a great help! Thank you, Robyn

This video is part of a series of 6. The lectures are from a course in neuroscience, with an emphasis on neuropsychology and neuropsychiatry.

As to career options: follow your heart. Do what you enjoy and find interesting.

All 6 Brain Mind Lectures can be purchased from the BrainMind website and from Amazon.

This is a 6 hour, 3 DVD Set

Great Video!*****

Its hard to think that people who have schizophrenia may not know it. I didnt know wtf was going on with me until I experienced my acute psychosis. After that it became clear that I was schizophrenic.

i find these things really interesting !! and i think i am experiancing hallucinations. its been for years and yea, i told my mum what i am feeling at that times. we will see what we are going to do with it. i dont think i have schizophrenia.. well.. i hope not. if anyone knows about these things and could help me see whats wrong with me plz reply !! :D and thanks

What makes you think there is something wrong with you? Maybe you just see things others do not see. Watch the film "What The Bleep" as your next step

depending on the nature of the hallucinations you might want to think about speaking to a psychiatrist. what kinds of things do you experience during a hallucination?

Well thanks. it has been 2 weeks to experience any hallucination. I think its from stress .. Im sure that i dont have Schizophrenia, but hallucinations maybe. Its like im disconnecting with the world around me and i see and have the feeling that everything gets larger .. too large and the voices are too loud.. i dont know if they are real voices that become loud or imaginary. Umm.. i try to 'wake up' and i do so, but i have to really try to stay focused and not get lost again when this happens.
