Many people cope with mental illness at some point in their lives, those with pervasive mental illness are often marginalized, or viewed as "outsiders." The purpose of this paper is to explore some of your preconceived notions about a particular mental illness. Using the suggested book list (below), select one book that interests you and develop a reaction paper. Then, using your book, outline new facts, ideas, etc. which challenge your preconceptions about that disorder. For example, many people assume those with schizophrenia cannot hold a job, but perhaps the book you chose describes the ups and downs of a young person with a promising job who copes with his symptoms actively.

TIPS
1. Every paragraph should include a title sentence.
2. Each paragraph should convey one big idea supported by 3-5 facts
3. Write in the past tense- it is easier: "I read the book vs. I was reading the book."
4. Keep sentences short and clear
5. Avoid writing "that"
6. Make sure each sentence has a subject that matches the verb "People with schizophrenia are" vs. people with schizophrenia is"
7. Generally, chose to write about people as plural or singular throughout the whole paper and do not switch back and forth from singular to plural tense-Again, it makes writing easier.
