1.Your answer: The top ten things I learned from reading chapters 5, 6, and 7 are as follows: 1. I learned about anxiety disorder, which is different from what we almost every day in our life gets anxious or nervous about before an event or examination. I topped it the most because I get to learn about the seriousness of this disorder, which is an excessive or inappropriate state of arousal which is not normal. It is characterized by a state of distress, feeling of apprehension, and fear. 2. Secondly, I learned about obsessive compulsive disorder which is one of the prevalent disorders. People with OCD, have obsessive thoughts which are recurring, impulsive and they try to eliminate or control them but either cannot or have extreme difficulty in managing the symptoms. The compulsion is the ritual in which people engage when such obsessional thoughts occur.
