Narrated Journal- In two minds- Is mental illness really an illness–Madness
Hello, welcome to this narrated journal presentation. In this presentation, we’ll watch and review a film illustrating the history lens in action.
This presentation focuses on the video titled “In two minds: Is mental illness really an illness–Madness.” In the video, the patient is a woman complaining that her thoughts are being infiltrated by someone else. The doctor’s main argument is that mental illness is really an illness. This argument is supported by reviewing the concepts of madness and brain changes and the cause of mental illness. The video also answers three major questions exploring mental illness mainly: Is mental illness a disease? Mental disease or accident of birth? and What is illness?
The main challenges that the characters face in overcoming problems in wellness are chemical imbalance, poor brain functioning, stigma, and finding the proper medication. On the other hand, the benefits realized by the characters included learning to accept the diagnosis and how to coexist with other people in society despite having mental issues and receiving the appropriate diagnosis and treatment.
Critically analyzing wellness adds value to interactions with people in personal and professional contexts in different ways. According to Swarbrick (2012), it gives the specialist treating the patient a clear background of the patient’s condition and provides the proper diagnosis and treatment. In addition, Swarbrick (2010) posits that the patient also gets guidance on recognizing and understanding triggers, thus managing their condition by preventing severe episodes. Lastly, Hodges & Myers (2010) argue that critical analysis also plays a significant role in helping the patient embrace their condition and work on changing their negative perception towards it, enabling the patient to speak up and look for help whenever they need it because they understand when they need help, enabling the specialist treating the patient to determine the most appropriate approach to help the patient and creating a friendly interaction between the specialist and patient.
Thank you.

Question
Overview: In the Module Three overview, you read about a few films that help illustrate the history lens in action. Choose one of the films to watch and review
for this assignment. Links to the films can be found in the Reading and Resources section of Module Three.
Other related historical films or documentaries may
be used only with instructor approval. For this assignment, you will watch one film through the history lens and have the opportunity to practice the
communication and technical skills needed for Final Project Part Two. You will create a short PowerPoint presentation with an oral narration using the
PowerPoint narration tool. This will also allow you and your instructor to check that your technology works for this assignment and to troubleshoot any
potential difficulties before the Final Project Part Two is due. This activity must be submitted in PPTX format so your professor can give you feedback on whether
your technical components are correct.
Prompt: In your PowerPoint slides, use the PowerPoint narration tool to verbally record your answer to the following questions:
What are the challenges the characters face in overcoming wellness problems? What are the benefits?
How does critically analyzing wellness add value to interactions with people in personal and professional contexts?
Throughout your short PowerPoint presentation, make sure you use effective multimedia and communication skills:
Construct your presentation in a way that ensures the audio and visual elements are logically organized in order to convey your message to your
audience.
Provide supporting evidence in your presentation that supports the importance of an issue or event in the film and its impact on wellness.
Develop the audio narration to logically flow with the presentation to articulate the importance of critically analyzing an issue or event in the film and its
impact on wellness.
