The other books just had a couple of large issues that were easy to talk about. I’ll do my best to keep this summary short. The format of the story is about a freshman in high school who is writing to an “anonymous” friend. The young man, Charlie, just lost a friend, possibly his only friend to a suicide has psychological problems, can’t get the one girl he loves; while at the same time is an absolute genius. He thinks out loud to his “friend” about a lot of things that are very thought-provoking.
He then gets arrested for assaulting the policeman and his father lectures him when he picks his son up. Christopher does detective work and explains how he finds it confusing when people tell h 3. Christopher wants to prove to everyone that he is far from stupid by taking the A levels math and achieving an A, in which is something extraordinary that no one in his school has done. Therefor he thinks that the other students are stupid. This is important because it shows his ambition to so to a University and get a high paying job.
Even later on in the movie, we also see that Will is a chain smoker, violent, and has extreme trust issues. He doesn’t have any friends besides the ones he knows are loyal, and he pushes others away before they have a chance to leave him first. After a good amount of therapy sessions with a psychiatrist and friend, Sean Macdonald, by the end of the movie Will’s problem seem to be a lot more under-control than they were before. Will’s problems could have been evaluated in multiple different psychological ways, including psychoanalytic, behavioral, cognitive, humanistic, and biopsychosocial. Psychoanalytic psychology would be the best explanation for Will and his actions / words.

Nash has schizophrenia, which is a mental illness or disorder that impairs the ability of a person to think clearly, act correctly, socialize with others, make decisions and manage their feelings. Some common symptoms are hallucinations meaning the person sees and hears voices that so not exist, delusions, disorganized speech and behavior. Other symptoms are more negative, for instance, losing interest in everyday activities, lack of apathy, does not react normal like other people would in different situations and has lower ability to experience pleasure. Nash in the beginning of the movie is not sitting with the rest the men. He is unsocial at the welcome party and prefers to be in his room than being outside making friends.
They gain moments where they believe that someone they meet and something they hear or feel is actually there, but it is just in the figment of their imagination. In this paper, it will compare and contrast on how accurate this film is to the actual behavior of schizophrenia. In the beginning of this film, John Nash, currently a student at Princeton University, arrives and settles in his dorm room to find later on that he has a roommate that moves with him. His new roommate Charles Herman comes into the room leaving John standing there utterly confused to where he came from. Instead of trying to converse with his roommate, John stays quiet with a puzzled look on his face.
Schizophrenia in A Beautiful Mind Imagine what it would feel like to find out that everything around you, the people you know, and all your memories you have shared with them, were not real. This is exactly what John Nash discovered in the movie A Beautiful Mind, after a psychiatrist informed him he has the rare mental disorder called schizophrenia. Although at the beginning of the movie, Nash's mental illness was unknown to views, he showed many symptoms of this condition. I will also speculate on the etiology or cause of his psychosis, the treatment provided to him, and his prognosis as well. The symptoms of schizophrenia are divided into three groups, which include positive symptoms, negative symptoms, and disorganized symptoms.
