Today was my third day of my independent study. My focus was human motivation, emotion, and personality. The videos I watched emphasized that our feelings and the behaviors they drive can also affect the minds, bodies, and health of those around us. While there are 10 basic human emotions, there are many other feelings which are combinations or mixtures of the ten. These polarities affect our psychological states, and consequentially our bodies. Additionally, I learned about personality disorders. Personality disorders are psychological disorders marked by inflexible, disruptive, and enduring behavior patterns that impair social and other functioning– whether the sufferer recognizes it or not.
