  • 4.1 Young Adult Role Transition

    4.1 Young Adult Role Transition
    When I became 18, I became independent from my parents by moving out which was a transition to adulthood. Moving out at age 18 can be typical for some young adults although there are researches that shows they move out at age 20. The challenges that was brought upon facing reality alone without encouragements. To pay for rent and bills, to face risking homeless. I just keep on working and working to get by, that's the only way I can think on how to survive. I learned how to cohabit.
  • 7.2.-Transition

    Peak experience is what changed me drastically. My parents announced their divorce, I lost my best friend, I got dumped by 2 years relationship. All of those experiences within in a year, I went from integrated to self transcendent. I stopped relying on people, I just started doing my own things, gaining my independence. I put myself out there in search for a new change and I got it.
  • 2.1 Oxidative Damage

    2.1 Oxidative Damage
    Dr.Denham Harmon believes that our body's resistance and repairs body molecules declines as we age and increases oxidative damages. Regardless the causes of oxidative damages, what if we put ourselves in a town bubble and it's anti-gravity and take antiotixcant everyday. Could the gravity be one of the factors? It lifts up our chins and wrinkles, sucking our skin out just like pollution. Gravity may have been accompanying age as we speak.
  • 1.1 The Beginning

    1.1 The Beginning
    In memory of my mom.I became 28 on this day. I experienced the loss of my mother and I also experienced something that most people never have to. Most people lose their parents in their 40s or later according to their social clock. I always have been on my own since I was 18 but this nonnormative event really impacted me and nearly changed me.
  • 7.3 Major Life Event

    Emotion-coping. My mother's funeral was on the same week as first week of school. I am a senior. I need to take all of those classes to pass, and when I found out that I was one credit short. I broke down. I got mad eventually and became proactive. I went up and started doing my stuff. That helped a lot. But I know I'm not taking care of myself if I am not talking about it or grieve about it at all. It's easier to fall into schoolwork and not think about it. I am still not sure how to cope.
  • “2.3- My current healthy lifestyle

    “2.3- My current healthy lifestyle
    I work out for 3 hours daily except on sundays and I love eating fruits, although I should eat more vegetables. I don't smoke or drink, not really leading a sedentary lifestyle. When I am near the dessert aisle, I tell myself no sweets to refrain myself. I need to wear sunblocks often though. I am getting old, I am getting tired all the time and I always want to drink water.
  • 2.2- Genetic Limits

    2.2- Genetic Limits
    Caloric Restriction, exercise, and our genetics are several of the factors to our lifespan aside the effects from reality. Hayflick believes is that if we put ourselves on diet, exercise and reduce stress would prolong our lifespan. 80% of our body are what we eat and 10% is water, so suppose if we remove exercise and focus on diet and water alone. I would recommend on taking classes that helps to relieves our stress.
  • 3.1. Working memory

    I am 85 years old, my prospective memory isn't sharp as it used to be. It is slowly affecting my IADL to the point where I hire a caretaker to drive me around and helps me to keep track of my medications and reminds me to pay my bills.
  • 3.1-Problem Solving

    My brain isn't sharp as it used to be. When it comes to driving, my memory's processing speeds declines as I age. I have to hire a caretaker to drive me around. I need someone to be able to react on time when it comes to being on the road for my safety and my caretaker's
  • 4.3 Adult Attachment Style

    preoccupied attachment-people tend to have highly conflictual relationships. I have high anxiety about people leaving me. So I often try to text people who matters the most to me, I often remind myself that I am loved by them and that I am tripping over the thought about them not wanting to be part of my life.
  • 4.4 Childhood Attachment Experiences

    The reason why I behave and act the way I am now when it comes to attachments is because I grew up with one of the parents who was an alcoholic who did not give me attention even when I asked for it and another parent often yells at me when I try to talk or open my mouth. In a way, that put me in a situtation where I have a hard time grasping on conflicts so that eventually leads to doubts toward attachments for me.
  • 7.1-Fowler

    The day I graduate is also the day when I will have my "master story." Individuative-reflective faith seems to be suitable for my case. I will graduate with a peace in mind because for the last 4 years, I have not been outspoken or assertive so once I'm out there in the real world. It will force me to be assertive and I may build my confidence from there.
  • 6.1 My RIASEC type

    My RIASEC type is ISA, which stands for Investigate, Social and Artistic. It does match to my job description on my goal which is part of a psychologist and I originally wanted to be an occupational therapist which was one of the things on the list. It's a perfect match.
  • 6.3- Identity

    " she became adult during school years, because she passed all classes, straight A’s, honor roll, and she even was asked by some teachers to teach in their classes especially P.E. classes." She was basically being guided to become a teacher, confirming her identitify before graduation.
  • 6.4- Conscientious

    "you know the word redneck? His family embodies that." This reminds me of the conformist stage, since his family is keeping up with the reputation of rednecks. He ended up conforming with his family in order to have their own identify. His family was big and go through things together as a family.
  • 4.2- Older Adult Role Transition

    I think I will get married in late adulthood so that role will be transited from being a girlfriend to a wife role. The challenges that it may be brought into is lack of knowledge when it comes to dating, considering the fact how long I have been single. It is also not typical for people to wait for marriage until older adulthood. I can only cope by taking my time and learn the way along the process.
  • 6.2 Super’s Stages

    As part of a psychologist, case management is one of the lists as well. The establishment is case management and as I age and gain experience/knowledge. Most likely as for maintenance, I will get promoted to different field, perhaps managing the workplace. I continue to work until I disengage when I can't keep up anymore.
  • 2.4- Potential consequences of my lifestyle

    Thankfully that I kept up with exercise starting young since exercises helps to increase telomeres which helps to keep track of cells for DNA replication. To get all of the antioxidants we
    need, we need to eat fruits AND vegetables. I don’t drink or smoke and eat junk food. I even work out everyday. The only two very thing that increases my risks of having cancers because I don’t eat enough vegetables and I don’t use sunblock aside the fact that I am 50 years old. Regardless how much I try to s

  • 3.2-Working memory

    In my case, procedural memory isn't doing me any good. Technology is becoming popular and I can't figure out how to use a computer if my life depends on it. I never learned about computers back in my days, now they're out, it takes me longer to learn about them, and to have these information processed into my long term memory cognition-speaking.
