Is there any impulses or surgery for panic disorder?
Absolutely not!!!!
What is an obsessive compulsive disorder?
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)-- An anxiety disorder characterized by obsessions, such as recurring thoughts or impulses, and compulsions, such as repetitive behaviors.
What is nerve disorder?
Any condition or disease which interferes with the conduction of impulses is a nerve disorder. Examples of some are polio, MS, schawnnomas and neurofibromas.
What nervous tissue cell that are involved in multiple sclerosis?
Multiple sclerosis is a progressive degeneration of the myelin sheath. Myelin sheath is grey matter which surrounds each nerve. It allows nerve impulses to travel at an accelerated rate. When this protective covering is degenerated the nerves become exposed and impulses do not travel as efficiently, or at all.
Is failure of neuronal growth responsible for multiple sclerosis?
No, failure of neuronal growth does not cause MS. MS is caused by an autoimmune disorder which causes the immune system to attack and destroy the myelin surrounding neurons. These areas of demyelination get covered over by plaques or scars (thus the name multiple sclerosis which means "many scars"). Nerve impulses fail to travel correctly through these areas of demyelination, causing the various symptoms of MS.
Children and adolescents who act out their impulses toward others in destructive ways may have?
they may have conduct disorder
What is an axonopathy?
An axonopathy is a disorder or disruption of the functioning of the axons - the nerve fibres which conduct nerve impulses away from the body of the cell to a synapse.

Im hearing voices What are they?
Hearing voices can be a symptom of a mental disorder in which the thoughts and impulses in your head are actually being 'heard' as real voices.
Why does multiple sclerosis impair the nervous system function even though axons are undamaged?
Multiple sclerosis causes the myelin sheaths around the axons in the neurones to be destroyed. The myelin is an insulator and so if it is not present, ions will flow across the nuerone membrane, thus slowing or even inhibiting action potential(nerve impulses)
The suggestion that dissociative identity disorder symptoms are created as defenses against the anxiety caused by one's own unacceptable impulses best illustrates the?
psychoanalytic perspective
Why electrical impulses are referred to as neural impulses?
Electrical impulses are referred to as neural impulses because a neural impulse cause electrical impulses. Neurons use electrical impulses to send messages.
