The only resource I’ve been able to find that gives me a clear list of mental disorders and
how to diagnose them. Why is it so expensive? Teens, who do not have a job or really
any money to spend over $50 on a book like this, have no way to access this easily.
Even though they are the ones who need it most.
I found a copy at the Sebastopol Library website. I’ll ask Mom to take me there tomorrow
to get one to look at. That seems like a good resource. I am allowed to photocopy up to
10% of the book if I want. I might just take notes or just photocopy important pages if
there are graphs and charts included. Nevermind, library closed on Sundays. Monday it
is!

Started more work on my proposal
Actually wrote some junk and goals.

I’m still not quite sure how to change people’s minds. So I’m going to read an article
about it!
How to change people’s minds:

e-s-minds
Ran a survey on the class about mental health
● 57.7% of the people who answered said they felt ashamed talking about their
mental health
● 53.8% of people have seen a therapist
● 50% have been diagnosed with a mental illness
● 15.8% are on medication
● 100% know someone with a mental illness
○ 38.9% 1-3 people, 61.1% 4+
The class wasn’t really happy about taking the survey. They also didn’t want to hear the
results. So I guess they’re going to need more teaching about accepting mental illness.
I’m sure there were people who wanted to hear the results, but were too afraid to say
anything.

Time to start the next step! (advocacy letter)
Should I do brochure or pamphlet like doctors and counselors give out? Doesn’t seem
like that bad of an idea actually. I should wear green on my presentation day also.
8 May 2019

Advocacy letter completed!
10 May 2019
I need to work on my proposal now! I’ve done the introduction, but there is still a lot more
to do.
I could work on the slideshow. . .
13 May 2019
Yesterday I did as much as I could. I started my brochure and got a lot of work on my
website.
Buser, Steven, and Leonard Cruz. DSM-5 Insanely Simplified: Unlocking the Spectrums
within
DSM-5 & ICD 10. Chiron Publications, 2015.
I’ve basically finished my website! All I really need to do is some finishing touches and
put in all the other parts of the project onto it, and I should be done. Above is the citation
for the DSM-5 simplified version I got on Amazon. I am so proud of my website abilities.
14 May 2019
More work on my proposal
15 May 2019
A lot done for proposal, hoping to finish brochure today
Brochure finished

Put together the skeleton of my binder! Title pages are cut and glued, dividers are ready
to divide, and page protectors are ready to protect.
17 May 2019
Proposal finish time!
19 May 2019
Phew it has been a busy few days! I finally have time to do some quality work! My
brochure is finished and in my binder.
Puting the brochure on the website was one of the hardest parts of this project. It was
very difficult. I managed to get the document on there, but of course, the spacing is off. I
am going to leave it.
Today is the day that I get most of this project done. I can feel it. I present in three days!
This is nerve wracking.
Proposal and slide presentation printed and proofread.
Just have to finish my rhetorical analysis!
20 May 2019
Working on rhetorical analysis
Notes for rhetorical analysis really help for the writing process.
21 May 2019
Last day of work time! Finished rhetorical analysis and ready to practice my presentation.
