My favorite subject


I think my favorite subject is psychopathology because I love the class and the contents of the subject are very interesting for me. Some contents of this semester were personality disorders, perception disorders, delirium and schizophrenia. It was very interesting when the teacher did the delirium class because he told us a lot of examples about clinical cases that he personally saw in the psychiatric hospital; also he imitated some patients for us, so we could understand what he said.

Other interesting thing about this subject was the visit to the “El Salvador” hospital. We visited the psychiatric area of the hospital, but not the place where they have the patient interned. We had some classes in a classroom inside the hospital and the teacher sometimes brought patients to the class. One of them called Eliza did the class, but she talk about herself and her delirium, and explained us her life and why she was interned. That was very rare, but necessary because reading about the disorders is not the same as seeing them. And we must be prepared for the future, therefore we must confront the reality and see patients, not only read or listen about them.
