deterioration of the human mind

[Juicetiin]

Hey everybody,

Well, as of right now, I am looking for some sources to use for my essay, and the topic is:
The deterioration of the human mind when faced with a challenge.

That being said, I don't know what secondary sources I should use for the essay. Well, the main purpose of this assignment is to read two books and compare them to each other, and right now, I'm doing Bodily Harm and The Year of the Flood both by Margaret Atwood. With these, I don't know what to look for necessarily as my other source outside the novels.

So, what I would like to ask is if that there's someone out there who know of an article, or something that I could use as a reference. It'd be greatly appreciated and it would be such a huge help!

Thank you,
Juice.

I think you may be lost: this is a photography forum, not a psychology lecture...

osmosis - as a psychology student i resent you calling that "psychology". sounds more like sociology being passed off as psychology - they do that alot . . .

Juice - i cant help, sorry - plus the purpose of the essay is to research it yourself, not get answers given to you :P

I have a masters in Psychology and am a licensed professional psychotherapist. I have taken no offense to it.

Chill man.

Sorry Juice, but i genuinely have no idea what any of that means

And IRT Nathan: As a communication student, anything I cant easily synthesized falls under "psychology". :P No offense meant.

Anything with "ology" on the end is scary!!!!

If it has "psycho"....it's even more scary!!!

Read "Go Ask Alice", and any of Jim Morrison's works. Especially "The Lords and the New Creatures". It may give you some insight as to deterioration, as well as some rebound.
