Stress often builds up gradually before you start noticing it.
Symptoms include:
The Five Senses
- sight – someone may see colours and shapes, or imaginary people or animals
- sounds – may hear voices that are angry, unpleasant or sarcastic
- touch – insects are crawling on the skin
- smell – usually a strange or unpleasant smell
- taste – having a constant unpleasant taste in their mouth
Programmes that influenced and helped with the illnesses
Don't call me crazy is a programme about kids with mental health problems. This programme has helped me portray my character as i have watched how the kids with mental health problems act and respond.
A girl on the programme suffers from schizophrenia where she hears voices in her head telling her what to do. She refers to them as numbers and some of them are nice and others aren't. I have used these ways in my character so i can portray schizophrenia in a certain way.
Bedlam is another tv programme which highlights people with mental illnesses. This show helped me learn about various illnesses and how people manage them. As we have a vary of different health issues in our performance this programme helped us to portray the illnesses and how to understand them.
