Psychologists eye stress response to Hurricane Sandy

The destruction wrought by a storm like Sandy can leave some feeling uprooted and going through the disquieting symptoms of stress disorders, said New York-area psychologists who have studied the stress response.

Certain tragedies can cause stress in our lives. Nurses are always faced with stress in the workplace but it can double if there are disasters that affect us as well.

Stay away from the Mental Health Industry which are bilking the government in disasters through FEMA or insurance companies.. There is no science. The industry is corrupted.

Inside the Battle to Define Mental Illness

Every so often Al Frances says something that seems to surprise even him. Just now, for instance, in the predawn darkness of his comfortable, rambling home in Carmel, California, he has broken off his exercise routine to declare that “there is no definition of a mental disorder. It’s bullshit. I mean, you just can’t define it.” Then an odd, reflective look crosses his face, as if he’s taking in the strangeness of this scene: Allen Frances, lead editor of the fourth edition of the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (universally known as the DSM-IV), the guy who wrote the book on mental illness, confessing that “these concepts are virtually impossible to define precisely with bright lines at the boundaries.” For the first time in two days, the conversation comes to an awkward halt.

There are no genetic tests, no brain scans, blood tests, chemical imbalance tests or X-rays that can scientifically/medically prove that any psychiatric disorder is a medical condition.
