Antidepressents.
This was a bad year for antidepressant research. Antidepressants are a class of psychiatric medications most commonly prescribed to relieve depression, but increasingly being prescribed for practically any ailment. In January, The New England Journal of Medicine published a study that showed there was a publication bias when it comes to antidepressant medications — one where even negative outcomes were repositioned as a positive outcome. This confirmed the long-standing belief that research showing a drug’s ineffectiveness (compared with a sugar pill) rarely see the light of day. And in the rare circumstances when they do, the researchers work to skew the findings to suggest something different than what the data show. CL Psych had the commentary.
I really found this part of the article interesting because it hits close to home. With some of my family members on antidepressents it is important that we research and know what is the best to take when having depression. It is interesting to learn that negative outcomes were reposistioned as a positve outcome and these results i will take home and share with my family.

Personality test
My personality score is ENFJ on the Jung personality test. For some reason this does not really describe me but the questions were a bit weird.
When I took the what house are you in in Hogwarts personality test i was 87 percent Gryffindor which describes me perfectly!
On Know Yourself I scored 46 extraversion, 68 Agreebleness, 71 Conciesness, 79 neurotism, and 96 openness to experience. This describes me well.
This was my results on Attractiveness
Attract Dimension: CheerfulnessIndividuals that score high on this dimension are particularly attracted to guys that look happy, fun-loving, and upbeat. Feedback:You tend to somewhat prefer people that have this characteristic, and you prefer this characteristic about as much as the average person. This one describes well.
On the EQ test this is what happened
I scored a 35 on the EQ test, which falls within the "Slightly above average" range (35-44). They describe this type saying, "We spend countless hours in our given roles - sometimes without much joy or satisfaction. In the process we become tranquilized by the trivial. Sedated by the small details of life." This is definitely true in my current job, but I don't think it's that serious considering my job is only part time, and I definitely don't plan on doing it for the rest of my life.
On these personality tests I learned a lot about my inner self. some were very accurate and others were not.
