BackgroundThis study examined the association of common mental disorders in primary health clinic attenders with indicators of poverty and disability in Goa, India.MethodAdult attenders (n=303) in two primary health clinics were recruited.ResultsThere were 141 (46.5%) cases of common mental disorder. The following were associated with common mental disorder: female gender; inability to buy food due to lack of money; and being in debt. Cases scored significantly higher on all measures of disability. Primary health clinic staff recognised a third of the morbidity but used multiple oral drugs, injectable vitamins and benzodiazepines to treat common mental disorders.ConclusionsPoverty is closely associated with common mental disorder which in turn is associated with deprivation and despair. Primary mental health care priorities in low-income countries need to shift from psychotic disorders which often need specialist care to common mental disorders. Health policy and development agencies need to acknowledge the intimate association of female gender and poverty with these disorders.

Substantial Degree

Major depressive disorder is reported to be the most common mental disorder, with a lifetime prevalence in the community ranging from 10 to 25% in women and from 5 to 12% in men. These figures are frequently quoted in the psychiatric literature, but are viewed by many, both outside and within the psychiatric field, with a substantial degree of skepticism. From outside the psychiatric field, it has been pointed out that “determining when relatively common experiences such as sadness should be considered evidence of some disorder requires the setting of boundaries that are largely arbitrary, not scientific, unlike setting the boundaries for what constitutes cancer or pneumonia” (1). From within the psychiatric field, it has been stated that “based on the high prevalence rates identified in both the ECA and the NCS, it is reasonable to hypothesize that some syndromes in the community represent transient homeostatic responses to internal or internal stimuli that do not represent true psychopathologic disorders” (2). It is likely that these arguments will be increasingly endorsed by the public opinion in the years to come, and it is therefore crucial for our profession to articulate a convincing response to the question “When does depression become a mental disorder?”. In this presentation, I will summarize three approaches to this issue, pointing out their weaknesses and the lessons we may take from each of them. The first approach is the one proposed by Wakefield (3), emphasizing the context in which depressive symptoms occur. The second approach is the one endorsed by several European psychopathologists, according to whom there is a qualitative difference between true depression and normal sadness, a difference which has been lost in the recent process of oversimplification of psychopathology. The third approach is the one according to which, since there is a continuity between “normal” sadness and clinical depression, the boundary has to be decided arbitrarily on pragmatic grounds. This is what the DSM-IV actually tries to achieve, regarding depression as a “disorder” when it reaches a given threshold in terms of severity, duration and degree of suffering or functional impairment, thus deserving clinical attention. The problem is, however, that the threshold fixed by the DSM-IV for the diagnosis of major depression is not only arbitrary, but also not based on reasonably solid pragmatic grounds (4).

This paper aims to describe and discuss the messages and meanings of the short story “The Lazy Jack”. The significance of this research is for building new frame that analyzing literary work is only viewed from the setting or character in a simple manner, but also can be viewed from identity theory assisted with critical thinking as the thinking approach rationally and based on the reason. The basis of reasoning is based on the researchers’ capacity in deepening and learning the situations and conflict happening to the character in the story. It is qualitative research in which the data collection is started from coding obtained from the text “The Lazy Jack” in line with the goal of the research. The result of this research shows that Jack does not have a firm personal identity, firm life principle, life vision, and struggling for survival. He is the one dependent on others although he always fails to learn to be better. It means that Jack is without personal and social identity.

Exhibitionism is a mental disorder characterized by compulsive disorder for exhibiting genital to an unsuspecting stranger. Through my creative work, I would like to raise awareness about exhibitionism for all readers, especially Indonesian people. I hope after reading my screenplay, readers will be able to understand more about exhibitionism. My screenplay explores the struggle of an exhibitionist to repress his desire to exhibit and his effort to change into a “normal” person sexually through Peter, my main character. The story goes around Peter who is an exhibitionist that is struggling with his desire to expose his genital to his victims while he does not really accept his sexual deviation which resulted internal conflict inside him. Later, he meets a girl that he really likes which makes him motivated to change. He tries his best to change before the girl realizes that there is something else about him.
