Healing

If there is one thing that I've learned at my age, it's that we are all here, just trying to heal a part of ourselves—a part that's been broken, hurt, or lost somewhere along the way. I think this is why I can't hold onto anger any longer, towards the people that I love, and even those that I still don't understand. We are all trying to overcome something that damaged us along the way, or find a part of ourselves that we once lost, or perhaps — something that was never there but we always wanted.  That is the funny thing about trauma: it's like the flu; you catch it and you pass it on, and it doesn't stop because somehow, it makes its way from one generation to the next, and then the next, and then the next. For example, when I look at my own mother and the time that I was sixteen. All she would do was spill cruel words that felt like a punch to the gut, the constant demeaning, distrust, anger and hurtful words made me question my love towards her. I admit t...

Sociological perspectives for Health and Social care

Sociological perspectives for Health and Social care P1. In this blog, I will explain the main sociological perspectives used in Health and Social care and explain the meaning of sociology.  Sociology is the study of society and the different structures within, some examples of these structures are: family, education, politics, economy, media and Health and Social care services.

This means that perspectives are ways in which we look at things, the...

P1. Explain the principal psychological perspectives. (Ivan Pavlov, B.F Skinner) There are various different types of perspectives in psychology. These perspectives present the different ways  human behaviour functions, in addition, I will list and explain the six perspectives of psychology. Behaviorist perspective. The behaviourist perspective is based on the idea that people and animals learn from their environment and as a result, from what we learn from our environment makes us who we are. Behaviorism is concerned with how environmental factors (the stimuli) affects observable behaviour (the response). In addition, there are two processes in which people learn from their environment; classical conditioning and operant conditioning. Classical conditioning was studied by a Russian psychologist Ivan Pavlov, with his experiment he managed to condition dogs to salivate at the sound of a bell through repeated associated with the sound of a bell and food. In other words...

P1 In this section, I will be talking about each development of life stages and link them to a celebrity Michelle Obama. I will also predict some life stages such as later adulthood and describe what are P.I.E.S. P.I.E.S There are five developments through life stages; physical, intellectual, Emotional and social.  Physical development is when we begin to fit into our own age, this means we either grow from a young age or get old. This includes physical body change and developing our skills such as walking or driving a car. Intellectual development is when our speech is developing including our skills, for example, when if an infant knows their colours and alphabet. Emotional development is our emotions, for example, a female of age 15-16 tend to become more 'emotional' or in other words 'moody' because their hormones produce another hormone called estrogen which causes a female body to mature. Social development is quite similar to emotional, this i...
