00:01
Now, let's get into the second broad bean of psychological disorder that I
would say is probably the most common would be mood disorders.
00:10
So these are -- disorders characterized by a persistent pattern of abnormal
mood and there's -- well, referring to you is affect and mood.
00:21
So affect refers to an individual's visible emotion in the moment and mood is
sustain internal emotion that reflects his or her view of life.
00:29
So when we look at things like depression, now, would follow under mood
disorder, this is sort of a long term impact on their view on life and the emotion
they're going to portray.
00:41
So somebody who is depressed isn't going to be smiling all the time and super
happy and smelling the roses, emotionally speaking the visible emotion that
you see would be a little bit more down -- would be a little bit more on the
negative side and their internal mood would be that they feel like, "What's the
point of living, I'm so unhappy, I don’t find happiness in the things that I should
be finding happiness in." The DSM-5 separates mood disorders into two
categories. There are depressive and related disorders, and bipolar and
related disorders.
