"As Good As It Gets": Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Hollywood is well known for depicting real-life health concerns as a means by which the public may become more educated on the given topic. In James L. Brooks' As Good As It Gets, Jack Nicholson plays an obsessive-compulsive writer whose life is somewhat hampered by his involuntary disorder.. When discussing the fundamental properties of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), the student will want to note that the individual is compelled to perform repetitive actions � such as washing one's hands several times in a row, checking and rechecking that appliances are turned off or being irrationally fearful of things that do not warrant such a reaction � to the point of extreme excess. These rituals ultimately overtake the individual's entire existence that some people are paralyzed from partaking of typical social functions. Research findings indicate that nearly 2.5% of the population suffer from OCD at some point throughout their lives, with three to five million Americans of both genders and all race/socioeconomic background overwhelmed by the disorder every year. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

"What About Bob?" � Multi-Phobic
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Afflicted with a malady of phobias, the lead character in Frank Oz's What About Bob? strikes a simultaneous chord of compassion and confusion with audiences. Played by Bill Murray, Bob's mental composition is comprised of such life-altering irrationalities as agoraphobia, claustrophobia, hypochondria and obsessive-compulsive disorder, all of which work synergistically to make him a walking, talking idiosyncrasy. His behavior, while wholly innocent, is over the top for his regular therapist to deal with so he is referred to emotionally absent and narcissistic Dr. Leo Marvin (Richard Dreyfus); after one session, Marvin alerts Bob to the fact that he will be unavailable for the rest of the summer on family vacation. This news sends Bob into a tailspin of � yet another psychological disorder - separation anxiety � until he is able to finally track down Marvin at his lake house. Phobic manifestations notwithstanding, Bob easily worms his way into the hearts of Marvin's family but forever remains an overwhelming irritation where the doctor is concerned, who truly has no idea what it means to be compassionate in a field where such emotional connection is key. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
