Dianne – Bexley City Schools (verified owner) –
There was so much misinformation about the psychology behind ADHD and BPD, as well as generalizations being made about students with ADHD, BPD and depression. There was also a very clear bias against medication for mental illness (the lecturer said point blank that she is “not a fan” of medication). I was genuinely shocked in the worst way.

It was great. I did think that the first question in the quiz was a little misleading. I missed it because I did not check “depression” because I checked “mood disorder” which depression falls under.
