Natural disasters can cause myriademotionally harmful circumstances forchildren. Not only is the event itself stressfuland frightening, but after it passes, stress canbe incurred from the damage to children'shomes and possessions, from migration,and from breakdowns in social networks,neighborhoods, and local economies

Winter SAD’s onset is associated with the changing of the seasons and the cold weather, being stuck indoors, shorter days and less sunlight exposure. However, Dumler said, there is a correlation between extreme heat and agitation. People on psychiatric medications such as antidepressants or mood stabilizers, for example, may have more difficulty regulating their body’s temperature, she said.
Warm-weather SAD is less common and tends to show up as anxiety, agitation, insomnia, and weight loss, while winter SAD is more tied to fatigue, oversleeping, weight gain, low energy, and social withdrawal. Winter symptoms are driven by shorter days, cold weather, and reduced sunlight, but Dumler notes that extreme heat can increase agitation, especially for people on psychiatric medications that make temperature regulation harder.
Currently, although the impact of weather on happiness has been supported by both theoretical and empirical research, there are still many uncertainties in these findings, which create challenges in creating conditions that enhance happiness for individuals.
Despite strong theoretical and empirical support for weather's influence on happiness, major uncertainties remain due to things such as differing weather factors, the variability of emotional responses across situations, the potential for daily activities to overshadow weather effects, and the scarcity of experimental research needed to establish clear casual relationships.
5.3 Diet
Diet can support well-being. By providing vitamin D through foods, especially in low-slight seasons, incorporating omega-3-rich fatty fish to reduce the risk of depression, eating fresh fruits and vegetables to boost happiness, and taking melatonin supplements when needed can support both mood and sleep regulation.
exposure to sunlight has numerous benefits for improving individual happiness and life satisfaction.
Increasing light exposure, whether through natural sunlight, morning outdoor activities, full-spectrum indoor lighting, light therapy, or even viewing sunlight imagery, can boost life satisfaction, raise vitamin D and serotonin levels, alleviate symptoms of SAD, and improve overall emotional well-being.
Taking a moderate outdoor exercise break during lunch hours significantly benefits an individual’s happiness.
Regular exercise (especially activities like running that boost serotonin and endorphins) can prevent or reduce SAD and significantly improve mood and reduce anxiety, with outdoor or well-lit exercise offering even stronger benefits.
It should be noted that studies across different populations have found significant gender and age differences in SAD symptoms (44, 45), SAD is more prevalent among individuals with a predisposition for deep depression.
Serotonin, a key mood-regulating neurotransmitter, is strongly influenced by sunlight. Its production and receptor activity decrease in low-light conditions, contributing to winter drops in serotonin levels, and the development of SAD, with symptoms varying by age and gender. This demonstrates that reduced light exposure can trigger negative emotional states through lowered serotonin activity.
A study by Cereda et al. (38) pointed out that in winter, reduced sunlight exposure and lower vitamin D levels may induce depressive symptoms in individuals with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), as well as conditions like bipolar disorder.
Vitamin D, which is mainly produced through UVB exposure from sunlight, decreases during cloudy weather and winter, and low vitamin D levels are strongly linked to depression, fatigue, negative emotions, and even greater suicide risk, while supplementation has been shown to improve mood and reduced inflammation. This shows how adequate vitamin D is essential not only for physical health but also for maintaining psychological well-being and life satisfaction.
Studies have shown that melatonin influences the production and release of neurochemicals such as serotonin, dopamine, and endorphins, which are associated with happiness and well-being (36).
Melatonin, a light-sensitive hormone that rises in darkness and regulates the sleep wake cycle, also influences happiness by affecting key mood-related neurochemicals like serotonin and dopamine, and its balance can be disrupted by factors such as artificial light, caffeine, alcohol, and stress, highlighting its important role in both emotional regulation and overall well-being.
Men were more sensitive to temperature changes and preferred cooler weather, while women’s happiness was less influenced by temperature variations.
Weather's effect on well-being varies across individuals, with factors like gender, age, and socioeconomic status shaping sensitivity. For example, studies show men's emotions are more influenced by temperature fluctuations than women's, illustrating how personal characteristics moderate weather's impact on happiness.
This highlights the significant role that climate events play in shaping long-term psychological well-being, especially as individuals and communities face an increasingly unpredictable climate.
Past experiences with extreme weather damage and worries about future climate change can jointly reduce current well-being, showing that both lived trauma and ongoing uncertainty contribute to long-term emotional strain in an increasingly unpredictable climate.
A study involving 226,808 Puerto Rican adolescents revealed that 5 to 9 months after the hurricane, participants reported increased levels of negative emotions such as depression (65). Similarly, following Hurricane Katrina, a study of 325 adolescents who experienced the storm found that participants generally showed signs of anxiety and other negative emotions (66).
EWEs like hurricanes and wildfires significantly harm emotional well-being, with studies showing that adolescents and adults exposed to disasters such as Hurricane Maria, Hurricane Katrina, and major wildfires experience heightened levels of depression, anxiety, and other mental health problems months after the events.
The interactions between EWEs and human health are complex and can be categorized into two main types: (1) direct impacts, which result from extreme physical climate phenomena such as storms or floods, and (2) indirect impacts, which typically arise from environmental changes, such as water quality deterioration or land use changes, that affect biogeophysical processes (63, 64).
Extreme weather events (EWEs), made more frequent and severe due to global warming, create both direct impacts (like storms, floods, and heatwaves), and indirect impacts (such as degraded water quality and land-use changes), all of which interact with social and demographic factors to shape and often worsen mental health and overall well-being.
The degree of air pollution can significantly influence individual schedules and life satisfaction, especially for vulnerable groups such as children, the older adult, and those with respiratory or cardiovascular conditions.
Large-scale social media analyses and other studies show that higher air pollution reliably lowers happiness—even beyond its physical health effects—likely due to aesthetic unpleasantness, sensory discomfort, and health-related anxieties, with especially strong impacts on vulnerable groups such as children, older adults, and people with respiratory or heart conditions.
Yuan et al. (59) demonstrated a significant negative correlation between the Air Quality Index (AQI) and individuals’ life satisfaction, and Song et al. (58) found a positive correlation between urban smog levels and subjective happiness.
Life satisfaction is strongly and consistently harmed by poor air quality, with most studies showing that pollutants like CO₂, NO₂, PM10, and SO₂ lower perceived quality of life, and research linking higher AQI and urban smog to reduced well-being, though some results may be influenced by factors such as income differences across cities.
Their findings indicated a negative correlation between air pollution and hedonic well-being, as well as a positive correlation with the incidence of depression symptoms. However, no significant association was found between air pollution and life satisfaction.
Air quality strongly influences both physical and psychological well-being, with many studies showing that higher pollution levels reduce happiness and increase depression symptoms, though evidence is mixed regarding whether air pollution affects life satisfaction, suggesting its emotional impact may be stronger than its effect on cognitive evaluations of well-being.
This suggests that calmer wind conditions are associated with higher life satisfaction, particularly among women.
Lower wind speeds are linked to higher life satisfaction, especially for women, with research showing that a one–standard deviation drop in wind speed significantly increases reported life satisfaction.
They found that precipitation in January had a significant negative correlation with happiness, indicating that rain was associated with lower levels of well-being.
Cloud cover, rain, humidity, and wind speed generally reduce subjective well-being, with studies showing that cloudy or rainy days, high humidity, and related conditions consistently correlate with lower happiness and more negative emotional states.
This suggests that while environmental factors like temperature may influence well-being, their effects might be overshadowed by individual characteristics.
Research shows that high temperatures generally reduce life satisfaction and that people in hotter climates report lower happiness than those in cooler regions, but findings vary, as some studies suggest temperature effects disappear when individual traits are accounted for, highlighting that temperature can influence well-being, yet its impact may be overshadowed by personal characteristics and context.
The study also showed that cooler temperatures helped reduce sadness and depression.
Studies using large-scale Twitter data and daily diary reports show that well-being drops sharply at temperatures above 70°F (especially when paired with high humidity), while cooler temperatures (around 10–15°C) are linked to higher happiness and reduced sadness, with hourly temperature changes exerting a stronger emotional impact than daily averages.
Specifically, when temperatures exceeded 70°F (21°C), individuals reported reduced positive emotions (e.g., joy, pleasure), increased negative emotions (e.g., stress, anger), and more fatigue (e.g., tiredness, lack of energy), all of which were linked to a decrease in subjective well-being. This effect was particularly pronounced in individuals with lower education levels and older age groups.
Temperature strongly influences well-being, with research showing a non-linear pattern where both extreme heat and extreme cold reduce happiness; studies indicate that temperatures above about 70°F (21°C) lead to lower positive emotions, higher stress and fatigue, and overall reduced life satisfaction, especially among older adults and individuals with lower education levels.
Previous research into ipRGC-influenced light (IIL) responses indicates that both illuminance and correlated color temperature (CCT) affect people’s well-being (15). Moreover, illuminance and CCT can also affect occupants’ satisfaction with and comfort in the environment (16, 17), improved satisfaction with environmental conditions is associated with improved daily life satisfaction.
Overall, sunlight and other light characteristics, such as illuminance and color temperature, significantly influence happiness, emotional health, and life satisfaction, with brighter and more comfortable lighting improving well-being and environmental satisfaction, though these effects are moderated by individual behaviors and contextual factors, making the relationship complex and multifaceted.
In these studies, higher IQ levels were associated with a reduced positive impact of sunlight on happiness (Add Health study, U.S., 1994–2008).
The effects of sunlight on emotions and life satisfaction vary across individuals and contexts, with factors like increased outdoor activity and personal traits—including intelligence—modifying how strongly sunlight boosts happiness, demonstrating that light’s influence on well-being is not universal but shaped by individual differences.
The effect of sunlight on mood is also reflected in the fact that light can either enhance or reduce feelings of joy and sadness, depending on its timing and intensity. Denissen et al. (12) found that sunshine increases both positive and negative emotions, indicating that the relationship between sunlight and mood is complex and not purely beneficial.
Light conditions strongly influence well-being by shaping emotional states and life satisfaction, with sunlight generally improving mood but poorly timed or insufficient light contributing to negative emotions, and research shows that sunlight can intensify both positive and negative feelings, highlighting a complex, not purely positive, relationship between light exposure and emotional experience.
The positive effect of sunlight on life satisfaction may be attributed to both its direct influence on mood and the fact that people are more likely to engage in outdoor activities when the weather is sunny, further contributing to well-being. However, studies like those by Buscha (56) have suggested that exposure to sunlight may have a negligible effect on well-being, particularly in cases where other factors, such as personal preferences or environmental stressors, influence mood more strongly.
Sunlight generally enhances life satisfaction—people report feeling more satisfied on sunny, clear days, partly because sunlight boosts mood and encourages outdoor activity—but some research shows this effect can be minimal when personal preferences or other environmental stressors play a stronger role in shaping well-being.
As a result, environmental psychology often considers how these multidimensional weather factors work together to shape an individual’s emotional state, social behavior, and the quality of social interactions, ultimately impacting subjective well-being.
Overall, weather conditions such as light, temperature, rainfall, humidity, air quality, and wind speed directly influence well-being by shaping physiological responses, emotional states, and social behaviors; factors like sunlight and comfortable temperatures generally promote positive emotions, while gloomy weather, high humidity, poor air quality, and strong winds can trigger negative feelings or stress, and together these multidimensional weather elements interact to shape mental health, daily behavior, and overall subjective well-being.
The above theories provide profound insights into how weather influences well-being through physiological, emotional, and cognitive pathways, revealing the complex relationship between weather conditions and individual well-being.
These theories show that weather influences well-being through interconnected physiological, emotional, and cognitive processes rooted in both basic needs and evolutionary history.
When individuals are in a non-threatening environment, they naturally produce positive emotional responses. These responses further influence attention, physiological reactions, and behavior, thereby enhancing well-being (6).
Evolutionary psychology explains that humans are naturally inclined to feel positive in safe, non-threatening natural environments, meaning favorable weather conditions automatically boost emotional and physiological well-being.
As a key component of the natural environment, weather conditions can significantly influence an individual’s emotions and overall well-being. Weather not only affects people’s living conditions and external environmental settings but can also impact happiness by altering emotional states.
Maslow’s theory and Lyubomirsky’s happiness model suggest that pleasant weather fulfills basic needs and contributes to the environmental portion of well-being, thereby directly influencing emotions and overall happiness.
The affective events theory suggests that an individual’s emotional state is often directly influenced by life events, with weather, as an inescapable external variable in daily life, typically representing the “atmospheric conditions” of daily living.
Environmental psychology offers a key framework for understanding how weather—through factors like temperature, sunlight, precipitation, and air quality—affects emotional and cognitive well-being, but inconsistent findings across studies show that these effects depend not only on objective weather conditions but also on individual physiological, psychological, and social differences.
Well-being is not only the core pursuit of human life but also an important predictor of various positive life outcomes, such as longevity, creativity, quality of interpersonal relationships, and work efficiency (1).
Well-being is deeply intertwined with weather conditions, a relationship long noted in daily life and literature. Modern research on this topic has rapidly expanded, revealing through multidisciplinary studies how weather influences well-being via physiological, psychological, and social pathways.
Currently,
Weather conditions influence well-being through a complex mix of direct environmental effects and indirect impacts on physiology, mood, and social behavior, and this paper reviews the theory, evidence, and mechanisms behind those relationships to guide future research and well-being improvement.
What, have I waked again? I never thought To see the rosy dawn, or ev’n this grey, Dull, solemn stillness, ere the dawn has come. The lamp burns low; low burns the lamp of life:
Although “Xantippe: A Fragment” was published in 1880, nine years before Levy’s death in 1889, the poem already reveals the emotional turmoil that resulted in her long-standing, though undiagnosed, clinical depression. In these lines, Amy Levy gives a haunting voice to a figure who feels emotionally drained, as if her life’s flame were dimming. The imagery of a “lamp of life” burning low, mixed with the weariness of waking, resonates with Levy’s own recurring bouts of melancholic depression. As a young Jewish woman navigating the male-dominated intellectual circles of Victorian England, Levy often felt like an outsider, both socially and spiritually. According to the Jewish Women’s Archive (2021), a friend and confidant, Richard Garnett, described her as having "constitutional melancholy." By channeling that profound exhaustion through Xantippe, she not only critiques the silencing of women, but also reveals personal anxieties about her own worth, agency, and artistic survival.
When a Change in Environment Is Not Possible
When major life changes aren't possible, you can still support your mental health by adjusting your environment by using lights, colors, scents, sounds, organization, and healthy emotional boundaries to regulate your mood and create distance from toxic dynamics, while seeking safety and support if abuse is present.
Environmental Changes That Can Improve Mental Health
Small, doable changes in your physical and social environment, like decluttering, adding light, reducing noise, strengthening supportive relationships, and stepping back from harmful ones can significantly improve your mental health and build momentum for bigger shifts.
Identifying If Environmental Change Is Needed
Recognizing how your environment affects your emotions allows you to make small adjustments or temporary changes to test whether a bigger shift is needed, but if altering your surroundings or relationships isn't enough, professional treatment may still be necessary.
How Perception Impacts Mental Health
Because perception of an environment can shape mental well-being as much as the environment itself, reframing negative beliefs, practicing gratitude, making small comforting changes, and processing emotions can help improve mental health even when the external situation cannot be changed.
Social Environment and Mental Health
A person's social environment, including relationships, social support, socioeconomic factors, and exposure to conflict or abuse, strongly shapes mental health, with healthy connections promoting resilience and coping, while harmful relationships increases the risk of stress, anxiety, depression, and substance abuse.
School Environment and Mental Health
Students' learning environment significantly influences mental health, with things such as a sense of belonging, safety, and strong school support systems improving well-being, while bullying, inadequate instructional support, and poor teaching training or academic structure can contribute to negative mental health outcomes.
Work Environment and Mental Health
Because people spend over half of their waking hours at work, the work environment–including factors like high demands, stress, bullying, low support, lack of control, and feeling undervalued–plays a major role in increasing the risk of mental health issues such as depression and anxiety.
Home Environment
The home environment, such as physical conditions of the home, community factors, and exposures such as crime, climate, pollution, toxins, environmental racism, and poverty significantly shapes mental health by influencing stress levels, safety, and overall psychological well-being.
Familiarity:
Unfamiliar or new or changing situations can sometimes trigger anxiety. However, when an environment has positive associations, connections and uplifting moods can be created.
Culture and values:
Sometimes, when cultures or values are not shared between people, one can feel isolated and even depressed. But sometimes, this differences can also make one more aware and accepting.
People:
Negative types of communication, arguments, and people who cause negative feelings to an individual can cause stress. However, people who are trusted or deemed as "safe" bring a feeling of calmness.
Sensory:
Anything that can be perceived through the senses has the ability to impact how one feels.
Aesthetics:
Clutter can induce stress, while tidy areas can calm. Meaningful colors and objects can also improve mood.
Exposure to different environments can physically affect the neural pathways in the brain that are related to cognitive function, mood regulation, and stress.
Neuroscience shows that environmental factors can physically affect brain functions.
4.2.2 The effects of landscape type on fatigue recovery various among students with different major.
Environmental majors experience stronger physical and psychological recovery from natural environments than non-majors because of their education, familiarity, ecological awareness, and emotional connection to nature enhances their ability to relax and recover. Suggests that nature based mental health interventions should account for students' backgrounds and environmental values
4. Discussion
Overall, gender didn't significantly influence restoration (H1 not supported), but juniors (H2 supported) and environmental majors (H3 partially supported) showed notably stronger physiological and psychological recovery from natural landscapes than freshmen and non-majors.
4.2.1 Juniors exhibit faster recovery and more positive preference than freshmen.
Juniors experience stronger psychological and physical restoration from natural environments than freshman, possibly due to the fact that they are older, more emotionally mature, have better coping skills and social support, and therefore better able to benefit from nature. Suggests that age and developmental stage should guide how schools design nature-based mental health programs.
3.2 Psychological response of viewing different landscape types
Psychological restoration varies by landscape type and by viewer characteristics: • lawn scenes are the most mentally restorative and deserts are the least – from most to least restorative: Grass/Lawn, Waterscapes, Forest, Plants, Field, Mountains, Artificial Nature, Deserts • gender does not significantly affect psychological restoration • juniors report stronger psychological recovery than freshmen • environmental majors consistently experience higher psychological restoration than non-majors
3.1 Physiological response of viewing different landscape types
This study shows that visual exposure to natural environments, especially forests and water, produces measurable physiological relaxation: • nature images lower systolic BP • forest images lower diastolic BP • water images lower HR Suggests that different types of natural scenes have different calming effects, and body overall responds physiologically to nature in ways that promote relaxation and reduce stress.
Furthermore, the "no pain, no gain" mindset can contribute to burnout
Burnout includes both physical and mental fatigue. Decreased in performance, mood, and even sleep problems.

Caffeine not only produces dopamine but it also exponentially increases the effects of dopamine (by increasing dopamine receptors).
So definitely avoid caffeine when doing pleasurable activities you don't want to do anymore (such as porn).
More than one-fifth of people experiencing homelessness currently have a serious mental illness like bipolar disorder or schizophrenia, and the US Department of Justice has found that “the prevalence of unmet behavioral health needs” is a key driver in why “people who experience homelessness tend to have frequent (and often repeat) interactions with law enforcement.”
Very early one chilly morning in October 1895, Fielding Blandfordstepped into a horse-drawn carriage with Edith Lanchester’s father and twobrothers. The four men arrived at Edith’s rented lodgings in Battersea. Theywoke the whole house with heavy banging on the front door, and FieldingBlandford forced his way in to ‘examine’ Edith. He ordered that she be takento an asylum because she was committing ‘social suicide’ by insisting on livingwith her working-class lover without marrying him. He justified this byarguing that under the Lunacy Act 1890 he would have certified her had sheattempted (normal) suicide.

four truths about how our solutions to these problems have problems of their own:We don’t see everything. Some of the information we filter out is actually useful and important.Our search for meaning can conjure illusions. We sometimes imagine details that were filled in by our assumptions, and construct meaning and stories that aren’t really there.Quick decisions can be seriously flawed. Some of the quick reactions and decisions we jump to are unfair, self-serving, and counter-productive.Our memory reinforces errors. Some of the stuff we remember for later just makes all of the above systems more biased, and more damaging to our thought processes.
Cognitive biases are just tools, useful in the right contexts, harmful in others.
Diagnostic categories based on clinical consensus fail to align with findings emerging from clinical neuroscience and genetics.

The actual reward state is not one where you're lazing around doing nothing. It's one where you're keeping busy, where you're doing things that stimulate you, and where you're resting only a fraction of the time. The preferred ground state is not one where you have no activity to partake in, it's one where you're managing the streams of activity precisely, and moving through them at the right pace: not too fast, but also not too slow. For that would be boring
Doing nothing at all is boring. When we "rest" we are actually just doing activities that we find interesting rather than those we find dull or stressful.
the work that needs to be done is not a finite list of tasks, it is a neverending stream. Clothes are always getting worn down, food is always getting eaten, code is always in motion. The goal is not to finish all the work before you; for that is impossible. The goal is simply to move through the work. Instead of struggling to reach the end of the stream, simply focus on moving along it.
This is true and worth remembering. It is very easy to fall into the mindset of "I'll rest when I'm finished"

Anxiety disorders are very common, with 40 million people struggling with one each year. This disorder is different from the common fear you might feel before having to make a public speech. We all have felt afraid from time to time, like when we are pushed out of our comfort zone. Anxiety disorders, though, are very intrusive. Constant stress can be so difficult to manage that it impacts one’s lifestyle, career, health, and friendships. What It Feels Like On one hand, when someone suffers from this problem, something will trigger a cascade of symptoms. There are many types of anxiety and each has its own unique features. The basic anxiety symptoms include: Feelings of dread and fear. Always being on alert for danger. Racing heart. Shaking. Sweating. Fast breathing. Shortness of breath, holding one’s breath. Stomach upset, diarrhea. Feeling jumpy or restless. Insomnia. Headaches. Different Types of Anxiety Disorders There are varied ways that anxiety is expressed. For this reason, there are six types of mental health disorders. The anxiety spectrum includes: Generalized anxiety disorder: GAD features constant worry for much of the day. This can result in headaches, muscle tension, nausea, and trouble thinking. Panic disorder: Sudden and unexplained feelings of intense terror. This can cause a racing heart, shortness of breath, nausea, chest pain, feeling out of my mind, dizzy. May lead to social isolation to avoid having an attack. Social anxiety: Intense fear of being judged or critiqued. Fear of being embarrassed in public. Causes social isolation. Specific phobias: Irrational fear of a certain thing, place, or situation. To manage this fear, the person will go to great measures to avoid triggers. Trauma disorder: PTSD is about never getting over trauma, even months later, It can lead to avoidance of people, places, or situations that trigger thoughts of the event. Flashbacks, nightmares, or repeated thoughts of the trauma stoke the symptoms. Obsessive-compulsive disorder: OCD involves worries about things like germs, causing harm, or a need for order. This drives compulsive behaviors in an attempt to manage the symptoms of anxiety caused by the fear. How to Manage Anxiety Do the symptoms of anxiety make you feel like you’re losing your mind? If so, it is time to meet with a mental health worker. At the first meeting, a therapist will assess what type of anxiety you are dealing with. We Can Help! Call Now! (888) 561-0868 He or she will then design a treatment plan that will help you manage the symptoms. The treatment uses a combined approach with psychotherapy, drugs, and healthy actions that help to reduce stress. Therapy for anxiety is based on the type you have. CBT is very helpful for people that struggle with excess worry and fear. It also helps you to notice how your thoughts are driving the panic-type response to a trigger.

Can a narcissist ever stop lying, even when confronted with evidence of their lies? Learn all about narcissistic personality disorder. If you are involved with a narcissist, then you are quite used to being lied to. Their constant lies simply come with the territory. To a normal person, it may be very perplexing to be lied to all the time by someone who purports to care for you. Learn about what the narcissist seems to gain from telling lies all time. About Narcissistic Personality Disorder Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a mental health disorder that stems from an unhealthy and inflated view of self. At least, that’s how it appears on the outside. Inside, though, the NPD really has a very low opinion of him or herself. All of their heinous behaviors are driven by a need to pump themselves up in their own eyes and others’. Individuals with NPD often seek out partners who have certain traits. For instance, they may be a compassionate and sensitive person, but may also be needy and have low self-esteem. Like a leech that latches to a blood source, the NPD latches onto its victim. Over time, the NPD slowly chips away at the victim’s sense of self-worth. Through lies and gaslighting, they put them down and cause them to doubt themselves. Through this emotional abuse, they can control the victim. But because the NPD has no conscience, they never feel regret or remorse for mistreating their partner. Someone with NPD demands constant admiration and praise while keeping their victim from receiving any. A narcissist does not want any competition. Symptoms of NPD include: Lacks empathy or compassion for others. Feels entitled to special treatment. Expects others to fawn over them. Belittles others; talks down to people. Takes advantage of the others’ weaknesses to build themselves up. Self important; arrogant. May hog the conversation. Emotionally detached. Believes that others envy him. Boastful and pretentious. Becomes angry if challenged. Torments the victim with fear. Has a bad temper; sudden angry outbursts. Easily slighted, sensitive to criticism. Doesn’t notice the needs of others. Emotionally stingy. May isolate their victim from friends. Feels insecure inside; self-loathing. Not willing to go to therapy. The NPD will refuse to get help, believing that they are perfect and beyond reproach. Why Someone With NPD Lies Why do narcissists lie… all the time? If you confront them with proof of the lie, they will still attempt to lie their way out of it. What inspires lying? Simply put, the NPD lies in order to inflate his or her own self-esteem. They lie to the other person, to beat them. By inflating truths, they attempt to make their own skills or abilities seem superior to the other person. In other words, they are a boar, the type of person people avoid at a party. We Can Help! Call Now! (888) 561-0868 When the NPD lies, he or she is trying to make themselves appear dominant. They lie for self-gain believing that telling mistruths makes them look smarter than the other person. Having a victim at their side who they can lie to provides them with a constant narcissistic supply, someone that fuels their sickness. When they impress their partner with their lies, they receive a rush or hit to feel better about themselves. Lies Often Turn Into Gaslighting For the NPD, the lies are often a prelude to gaslighting. Gaslighting is a psychological weapon used by some to keep a person emotionally off-balance. When they lie to the person’s face about what may have occurred, they cause the victim to question their own sanity. When the victim confronts the NPD with solid evidence of a misdeed, they will be met with lies. Not only will the NPD lie and deny it ever happened, but they are also likely to attack. This is where the gaslighting begins. They will attempt to twist the event around to become the fault of the victim. You Are the Narcissistic Supply Source There is a reason why the NPD wants to keep their victim around; the victim fulfills a need for them. They fill up their NPD cup daily by sucking the life out of the unsuspecting partner. Thus, the victim is not even aware of the role they play in the illness at first. The NPD will therefore go to great lengths to keep the victim from leaving them. Some tactics they use include: They may cry false tears to elicit sympathy, thus keeping the victim engaged. They may use force or become violent to assert dominance. They may try to manipulate the victim through guilt. They may threaten the victim by taking the money away or causing some type of harm. They make the victim feel bad about themselves so they won’t think they can do any better. They may threaten suicide, although it is an empty threat. Breaking Free From an NPD Liar If you have woken up to realize you are in a relationship with an NPD, you should run, not walk, to the exits. The sad truth is that these people are rarely able to change their ways, mostly because they don’t want to. In their own minds they feel they never do wrong, so why go to therapy? Partner with a therapist who can offer guidance and support as you detach from the NPD. These people can and do become violent when faced with their N-source leaving them. Prepare for the false promises and tears, as they play on your sense of compassion to keep you entrenched in the abuse cycle. So, can a narcissist stop lying, even with evidence of their lies? The answer is very clear: no, they cannot.

Unlike many note taking manuals, Goutor advises that within the small list of rules and standards which he's laid out, one should otherwise default to maximizing the comfort of their note taking system. This may be as small as using one's favorite writing instruments or inks. (p28)
It's nice to see him centering self-care and small things which contribute to the researchers' mental health within note taking design and user interface.

When you feel sad all the time, sleeping becomes an opportunity for relief. Depression depletes your energy anyway, only adding to the desire to lie down and drift off to sleep. When your depressive state leads to sleeping too much, this condition is called hypersomnia, or the opposite of insomnia. Excessive sleeping is a common symptom of major depressive disorder. Escaping emotional pain through sleeping more hours than usual may be a means of self-managing the depression and sleeping too much may be a physiological effect of the reduction of neurotransmitters common among depressed patients. When the symptoms of depression, such as hypersomnia, are so significant that they undermine your quality of life, it is time to seek professional help. Depression is a serious mental health condition that may lead to a daily impairment that can undermine all areas of life. When excessive sleeping has impacted your career or job security, your relationships, or your overall wellbeing, proactive steps to improve psychological health are in order. <img class="aligncenter wp-image-30122 size-large" src="https://elevationbehavioralhealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/depression-and-sleep-1030x687.jpeg" alt="depression and sleep" width="1030" height="687" /> Some Basic Facts About Depressive Disorders Depression is the second most common mental health disorder experienced by Americans. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, over 17 million Americans are afflicted with this debilitating condition each year. Additionally, 2.3 million adolescents struggle with depression, further defining depression as a serious mental health threat today. In fact, suicide is now the second leading cause of preventable death among young people aged 10-34. These statistics underscore the importance of getting professional help for managing this serious mental health condition. There are several different types of depression, with each type expressing unique features. Treatment for depression will be based on which particular type of depression is present. These types of depressive disorder include: Major depressive disorder MDD is the most widely diagnosed form of depression. A diagnosis of MDD results when five or more of the following symptoms are present for two weeks or longer: Persistent feelings of sadness, despair, or emptiness Irritability Feelings of guilt or worthlessness Fatigue Loss of interest in activities once enjoyed Difficulty making decisions or concentrating Sleep disturbances Changes in eating habits, weight changes Thoughts of suicide or death Dysthymia Dysthymic, or persistent depressive disorder, is a type of depression that persists for more than two years. Someone with dysthymia may experience periods of severe depression alternating with periods of mild depression symptoms for more than two years. Postpartum depression A woman who experiences serious symptoms of depression during and/or after giving birth has postpartum depression. The symptoms may be so severe that the mother is unable to care for her child or for herself. They may experience severe fatigue, exhaustion, and anxiety in addition to the intense sadness. Premenstrual dysphoric disorder PMDD is related to a woman’s hormonal cycle, and features intensified PMS symptoms, such as angry outbursts, hopelessness, irritability, hypersomnia, excessive crying, and sensitivity to rejection. Seasonal affective disorder Climates further from the equator may lead to depression symptoms that are caused by a lack of sun exposure during the winter months. The individual may experience the symptoms of sleeping too much depression, weight gain, and isolation behaviors in addition to other depression symptoms. We Can Help! Call Now! (888) 561-0868 Bipolar depression This type of depressive disorder features alternating dramatic and unpredictable shifts between depressive and manic moods. The low mood episodes are classified as bipolar depression What Causes Depression? Depression is an extremely complex mental health disorder. Why is it that some people seem to manage serious life events, such as the death of a loved one, a job loss, divorce, or other traumatic events, while others succumb to depression? To date, science has not yet determined the exact causes or factors related to depression, although ongoing research continues to offer new clues. For example, a recent study out of Japan reveals the action of certain protein signaling that may affect mood. The authors, Kobayashi et.al., state, “Taken together these findings suggest that RGS8 participates in modulation of depression-like behavior through ciliary MCHR1 expressed in the CA1 region.” Some of the factors that have been also been identified as contributing to depression include: Genetics. A family history of depression is one of the biggest predictors of the disorder. Individuals with a close relative who suffers from depression will increase the probability for other family members. Brain function. The neural connections, brain cell growth, and brain chemistry are factors in mood regulation. There is some scientific evidence that chemical imbalances in the brain may contribute to the onset of depression. Temperament. Personality traits, such as how excitable or how sensitive we are by nature can factor into depression. Stressful life events. People respond in their own unique way, often based on temperament, to stressful life events. Grief and loss, trauma, abuse, and many difficult life events can result in sustained and chronic depressed mood. Medical conditions. Some health conditions can contribute to depressions, such as Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, lupus, stroke, HIV, Parkinson’s disease, and erectile dysfunction in men. Some medications can also cause depression as a side effect of the drug. Substance abuse. Alcohol or drug abuse may precede the onset of depression. The negative consequences that follow a substance use disorder may overwhelm the individual and depression can develop as a result. How Depression Impacts Daily Life Living with depression on a day-to-day basis can have a significant impact on quality of life. In addition to the low mood and persistent feelings of sadness, depression can leave the individual feeling unwell. This combination of symptoms will often result in reduced functioning at work and at home. Sleep disruptions, including sleeping too much or sleeping too little, will wreak havoc with concentration, energy and stamina, memory functions, appetite, and can further intensify feelings of despair. When depression causes a person to literally not want to get out of bed all day it can cause a domino effect in all other realms. Hypersomnia may even lead to excessive absences at work and declining work performance overall. Excessive sleeping also has a negative impact on the family dynamic. When mom or dad is holed up in bed the children who are depending on the parent may not have access to the care they deserve. This places more pressure on the well parent to take up the extra burden, which can have an effect on the relationship. Eventually, the impact of depression will touch all aspects of life. Getting Help for Depression The fundamental treatment protocol for depression involves a combination of medication and psychotherapy: Psychotherapy. One-on-one talk therapy sessions allow the therapist to guide the individual toward resolving unaddressed emotional issues that may be contributing to the depression. These may involve past trauma, childhood abuse, grief and loss, divorce, and other painful life events. Cognitive behavioral therapy is useful for helping to guide patients toward established more self-affirming thoughts that lead to positive thought/behavior patterns. Group therapy sessions, such as a depression support group, can also be beneficial to individuals being treated for depression. Medication. Antidepressant drug therapy is the industry standard for depression treatment. There are dozens of antidepressants on the market today. These include SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOIs, and tricyclic antidepressants. The drugs vary in how they impact brain chemistry, and dosing adjustments or even changing to a different drug is common when trying to find the best fit for each patient. If the severity of the depression is becoming concerning it is appropriate to seek a residential mental health program to receive the highest level of mental health support. Although most individuals struggling with depression realize it is likely a temporary condition that will eventually pass, some may begin to believe things will never change. This can cause some to consider harming themselves. A residential mental health program will offer constant support and monitoring, as well as a more intensive and individualized approach to treating depression. Holistic Activities Complement Depression Treatment Psychiatry has begun to embrace holistic therapies as complementary to traditional treatment modalities for depression, as these activities can help reduce stress and induce feelings of calm. Some of the holistic treatment elements include: Yoga. Yoga involves slow, purposeful physical poses with a focus on breathing. Yoga is known to promote relaxation and reduce stress while also strengthening and stretching muscles, and reducing blood pressure and heart rate. Acupuncture. Acupuncture uses tiny needles to open up energy paths in the body thought to assist in the improvement of mind-body connectedness and wellness. Meditation. Mindfulness meditation is also helpful in training the brain to focus purposefully on the present moment, taking in the various sensory stimuli and focusing on rhythmic breathing. Exercise. The positive effects of getting regular exercise are caused by the release of brain chemicals, such as endorphins, serotonin, and dopamine. Aromatherapy. Certain essential oils have been found to relieve symptoms of depressed mood. These include jasmine, citrus oils, bergamot, and chamomile oils. Nutritional counseling. A diet rich in lean proteins, nuts and seeds, fresh vegetables and fruits, oily fish such as salmon, beans, and whole grains can significantly contribute to mental stability. Depression is a manageable mental health disorder. When the symptoms of depression lead to impairment in daily functioning, obtaining the support of a mental health professional is essential to recovery.

The feelings of anxiety do not begin with the morning alarm bell. Nope, the anxiety about going to work is felt throughout the night with fitful, restless sleep. The mere idea of entering the workplace triggers waves of stress that threaten to undermine any effort to be productive and engaged at work, and often result in calling out sick. Workplace phobia, according to a definition published in Psychology, Health & Medicine, is defined as “a phobic anxiety reaction with symptoms of panic occurring when thinking of or approaching the workplace.” Considering the serious consequences of having anxiety about going to work, this particular phobia can be particularly devastating to not only one’s professional life but their personal life as well. Being unable to keep a job due to this type of phobia can have far-reaching and deleterious consequences. This specific source of this type of anxiety has often been lumped in with various other disorders. These include obsessive-compulsive disorder, social phobia, specific phobia, and generalized anxiety disorder. This fear work is due to the features of workplace phobia disorder, which can be recognized in these other forms of anxiety disorder. Finding a remedy is critical, and will likely involve a combination of therapies to help the individual overcome the dread and fear of going to work. <img class="aligncenter wp-image-30059 size-large" src="https://elevationbehavioralhealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/anxiety-about-going-to-work-everyday-1030x783.jpg.webp" alt="anxiety about going to work everyday" width="1030" height="783" srcset="https://elevationbehavioralhealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/anxiety-about-going-to-work-everyday-1030x783.jpg.webp 1030w,https://elevationbehavioralhealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/anxiety-about-going-to-work-everyday-300x228.jpg.webp 300w,https://elevationbehavioralhealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/anxiety-about-going-to-work-everyday-768x584.jpg.webp 768w,https://elevationbehavioralhealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/anxiety-about-going-to-work-everyday-1536x1168.jpg.webp 1536w,https://elevationbehavioralhealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/anxiety-about-going-to-work-everyday-1500x1141.jpg.webp 1500w,https://elevationbehavioralhealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/anxiety-about-going-to-work-everyday-705x536.jpg.webp 705w,https://elevationbehavioralhealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/anxiety-about-going-to-work-everyday.jpg.webp 1620w" sizes="(max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px" /> About Workplace Phobia Individuals who have anxiety about going to work may exhibit a higher level of psychosomatic symptoms. These are the physical symptoms that can accompany a mental health condition, including gastrointestinal distress, migraines, pain, headaches, and fatigue, and often result in excessive absenteeism due to sick days. In fact, one 2014 study published in the Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine found that 10% of patients with chronic mental health conditions who sought sick leave authorizations for their physical symptoms suffered from workplace phobia. Identifying workplace phobia is essential in turning the ship around and overcoming a disorder that is negatively impacting the quality of life. Employers also benefit from gaining an understanding of this type of anxiety, as loss of productivity related to paid sick days, having to hire temporary workers, and the impact on fellow coworkers are added costs to the business. Work Phobia Intense irrational fear emerges when the individual thinks about or attempts to go to work. The triggering stimuli, such as encountering the supervisor or colleague, can cause symptoms like those of a specific phobia, such as: We Can Help! Call Now! (888) 561-0868 Sweating Hot flashes, chills Trembling Choking sensation Inability to face the trigger (enter the workplace) Chest pain, tightness Dry mouth Ringing in the ears Intensive fear when approaching or considering the workplace Shortness of breath A sensation of butterflies in the stomach Mental confusion, disorientation Rapid heart rate Nausea Headaches Reduction of symptoms when leaving or avoiding the workplace When exposed to the workplace trigger, the symptoms are so uncomfortable and frightening that the anxiety about going to work can result in avoidance behaviors, thus the high rates of sick leave. According to an article published in the Journal of Anxiety Disorders, There are several subtypes of work phobic, including: Work-related anxiety Work-related panic Work-related social phobia Work-related phobia Work-related generalized anxiety Work-related PTSD What Causes Workplace Phobia or Workplace-related Anxiety? Workplace phobia also referred to as can have various causal factors. Aside from the existence of a disorder such as social anxiety, which can feature workplace anxiety or phobia features, other risk factors might include: Having had a prior work-related experience that was traumatic, such as sexual harassment or bullying Performance-based fears Fear of required oral presentations Ongoing interpersonal issues and conflicts with a superior Family history of social anxiety or phobia Multiple traumas or significant negative life events lead to coping or stress-management issues at work How to Treat Workplace Phobia Treating work-related anxiety will revolve around changing the thought distortions that lead to avoidant behaviors or panic symptoms. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that helps patients identify the dysfunctional thought-behavior patterns and guide them toward reframing thoughts to eventually be able to cope when confronting the work-related trigger. Combining CBT with exposure therapies that help desensitize the patient to the triggering event or situation can yield positive results. Medication also plays a role in the treatment of workplace phobia or anxiety. Drugs that reduce anxiety, such as benzodiazepines or beta-blockers, may help improve the individual’s ability to function in the workplace once again. Certain holistic strategies can assist in the reduction of stress or anxiety symptoms. These might include yoga, guided meditation, deep breathing exercises, mindfulness, getting regular exercise, and reducing caffeine intake.

Now What?About Teen DepressionCauses of Teen DepressionSuicide Risk for Depressed TeensGetting Help for a Teen with DepressionBNI Treatment Provides Residential Mental Health Treatment for Teens Your Depressed Teenager Won’t Get Out of Bed. Now What? It is hard for a parent to admit that something is not right with their child. Sure, when the teen years hit it is very common to notice an increase in moodiness and drama. But when the teenager flat out refuses to leave their bed, it is cause for worry, indeed. Teens may go through a tough time, maybe due to social problems, family issues, or trouble at school. In most cases, these kinds of problems are usually short-lived and the teen will cycle through the emotions in time. Sometimes, though, depression can be at the root of the teen’s desire to stay isolated in their room. Parents who suspect their teen is struggling with depression should enlist the help of a trained mental health expert. Teen depression should not be ignored, as suicides in this age cohort are on the rise. About Teen Depression When your teen won’t leave their room, or even get out of bed, and this persists, it might be due to depression. The NIH reports that teen depression now affects 13.3% of our youth between the ages of 13-17. This reflects about 3.2 million teens. Rates of depression are almost twice as high in teen girls versus boys. Symptoms of teen depression may include: Feeling sad or hopeless. Changes in sleep patterns. Changes in eating habits; sudden weight gain or loss. Fatigued, listless. Loss of interest in usual hobbies. Irritable; angry outbursts Withdraws from friends and family. Low self-esteem. Sensitive to peer rejection or being criticized. Trouble paying attention in school. Frequent headaches or stomach aches. Talks about death, suicidal thoughts. Teens that are still showing these signs after a two-week period should be seen by a doctor. Causes of Teen Depression Teen depression is somewhat of a mystery. With all the advances made in science and so much research, the exact cause of depression is still not known. Hormone changes during the teen years may contribute somewhat, and there are other risk factors for depression as well. Some of these risk factors include: Family History. Depression is more common among teens with family members who also suffer from it. Teen Hormones. The influx of growth and sex hormones during the teen years can impact brain chemistry. Family Changes. Teens may have a tough time working through a difficult life event. It might involve moving to another town or school, a divorce, or a death in the family. Social Anxiety. The teen years are stressful. Social anxiety can be a problem for some teens. The social skills may not yet be developed, so the teen may struggle with fitting in or with feeling rejected. Social Media. Prolonged exposure to social media can lead to depression. Teens are very self-conscious of their looks and social media can make them more insecure. Body dysmorphia, being bullied, and eating disorders are common. School Pressures. Young people feel a lot of pressure to excel in high school as they look toward college. Some teens struggle with grades or a learning deficit and may come to feel they are letting their parents down. Childhood Trauma. A history of abuse or neglect can trigger depression even years later. Romantic Breakups. During the heightened emotions of the teen years, romantic feelings are intense. When a breakup or rejection occurs it can be very hard for the teen to deal with. Covid-19. The lingering effects of the Covid-19 pandemic have had a deep impact on teens. Long months of social isolation and loneliness, as well as the many changes Covid brought, have been hard on teens. Suicide Risk for Depressed Teens Teen suicide has spiked in recent years. Suicide is now the second leading cause of death for young people between ages 10-24, according to data from the CDC. In teens, the danger is the still immature limbic system in the brain. This is the region that controls decision-making and impulsivity. A teen may decide on a whim to just “end it all” because they do not have the coping skills. Where an adult can better manage difficult emotions, a teen isn’t equipped because their brain is still developing. Call Our Parent Hotline (888) 522-1504 Warning signs of suicide among teens include: Impulsive behaviors. Becoming more withdrawn. Giving away prized possessions. Having angry outbursts, rage, or violent behaviors. Feeling like they have no real purpose in life. Obsessed with thoughts of death and suicide. Chronic sleep problems. Changes in eating and sleeping habits. Feelings of shame, guilt, excessive worry, or grief. Stops showing up for activities once enjoyed. Substance abuse. Obtaining the means to complete suicide, such as weapon or pills. Getting Help for a Teen with Depression So what does a parent do if their depressed teenager won’t get out of bed? The first big step is to not ignore the teen’s behavior and mood state. A day or two, fine, but a week or longer is a warning sign not to be ignored. Set up a meeting with the family doctor as a starting point. Once a health issue is ruled out, the doctor can refer the teen to a mental health provider. In most cases, the teen will be treated with outpatient actions at first. This is likely to involve an antidepressant and talk therapy. If the teen’s mood state worsens, though, it is time to consider a more intensive treatment solution. A residential program offers the teen a place to work through the issues that are factors in the depression. These programs also offer tutoring so the teen can keep up with school while in treatment. The mental health program includes: Therapy. This is offered in both one on one and group formats. Includes evidence-based therapies like CBT, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, and solutions-focused therapy. Life skills. The teens will be taught new coping skills, communication skills, conflict resolution techniques, and relating skills. Meds. Some teens may benefit from drug therapy, although the risks must be weighed. Holistic. Some activities enhance results, such as surf therapy, equine therapy, recreational therapy, art, dance, music, and drama therapy, and yoga. If your depressed teenager won’t get out of bed, and they aren’t getting better, consider a residential program for teens. BNI Treatment Provides Residential Mental Health Treatment for Teens BNI Treatment Centers give parents the needed support for helping a teen with depression.

What to Do About Teenage Cell Phone AddictionAddiction, Mental Health, Self Esteem, Treatment<img width="845" height="321" src="https://bnitreatment.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/teenage-cell-phone-addiction-845x321.jpg" class="wp-image-30300 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-30300 attachment-entry_with_sidebar size-entry_with_sidebar wp-post-image" alt="teenage cell phone addiction" /> Table of Contents Teenage cell phone addiction disrupts family time, social time, and study time.What is Teenage Cell Phone Addiction?What Are Signs of Teen Cell Phone Addiction SymptomsThe Impact of Teen Social Media Addiction on Mental HealthWhat Do You Do If Your Teenage Is Addicted to Their PhoneBNI Treatment Centers Helps Teens with Mental Health Disorders Teenage cell phone addiction disrupts family time, social time, and study time. For a teen, having a cell phone is like being a kid in a candy store. With app stores offering a never-ending array of options, it is easy to see how teens get addicted to their phones. By design, software companies have found ways to draw people into their digital products, including teens. Social media apps, and there are many, gobble up the most time among teens. Teens are on these social apps for several hours a day. Data show that teens spend about 3 hours a day on social media. An astounding 20% of teens are on these social platforms for more than 5 hours a day. On average, teens are on their phones about 7 hours per day. Smartphone addiction is very real. When teens use the apps, they will receive a dopamine hit that gets logged in the brain’s reward system. This leads to the teen spending ever more time on their phones, as the behavior gets continually reinforced. Keep reading to learn more about teen cell phone addiction and what can be done to curb the problem. What is Teenage Cell Phone Addiction? There is ample research showing how smartphone overuse, especially social media, impacts the brain. In fact, it can cause the same brain chemical responses as a drug. When a teen sees new likes, positive comments, or new followers on their feeds, they receive a burst of dopamine. Similar to a drug’s high, as social app use escalates, the more engagement they crave. The time spent engaging on social feeds will increase more and more as this reward cycle takes hold. The teen may put off other activities they once enjoyed in exchange for spending more time on their phones. Homework is not completed, which affects the teen’s grades. Sleep is forfeited, which impacts their health in many ways. In person social time is traded off for engaging with strangers on their social media feeds. All of these adverse effects caused by excess cell phone use can lead to mental health issues. Anxiety can result due to the time wasted on the phone. This causes stress because the teen now lacks time to complete their schoolwork or chores. Too much time online also results in depression, mainly because the teen begins to feel lonely. What Are Signs of Teen Cell Phone Addiction Symptoms As with other behavioral addictions, there will be certain signs the teen displays. Signs of a teenage cell phone addiction might include: Teen cannot carry on a live conversation. Teen is always scrolling and clicking around on their phone. Teen is not able to be without their phone, even for a few minutes. Teen shows signs of depression the more they are on their phone. Teen becomes obsessed with selfies and their social feels. Teen is having sleep problems. Teen’s grades drop, due to reduced time for studying or homework. Parents might want to think about having a digital time out, where all phones are shelved for a day or a weekend. Taking a break from the cell phones will do the whole family a lot of good. The Impact of Teen Social Media Addiction on Mental Health During the teen years, the brain is still under construction. The teen brain is more vulnerable to things that could lead to an addiction, like video games and social media. A recent study explains how the reward system in the teenage brain works. Call Our Parent Hotline (888) 522-1504 It shows the same type of dopamine release in response to social media likes as one might have to a drug. The study also points out that the teen will show “withdrawal” symptoms, like irritability and anxiety. This happens when they are not allowed to use their cell phone or social media. But anxiety and depression in themselves can be a result of too much cell phone use. Studies show that teens that spend large amounts of time on social platforms suffer from higher levels of mental health issues. This is due to the time spent on social apps, which can fuel low self-esteem, body dysmorphia, and bullying. Also, excess time on smartphones means a lack of in person contact with friends and family. Face-to-face time is traded off for huge amounts of time chatting online with strangers. These interactions are shallow and do not lead to any real human connection. Over time, this can result in feelings of loneliness and depression. What Do You Do If Your Teenage Is Addicted to Their Phone Parent Guidelines to Reduce Teenager Cell Phone Addiction Parents can help limit their teen’s cell phone use in several ways. It is likely a waste of time to forbid them to be on their phones, but you can set rules. Remind the teen that having a phone is a privilege, not a right, and that you are paying for it. Of course, guidelines for a 13 year-old will be different from that of a 17 year-old. Consider these tips for parents: Set limits on time for phone use. Set up screen-free periods during the day, with a place for the phone to be stored during that time. Tell the teen the phone will be shut off if their grades drop. Have your teen shut down their cell phone at a certain time each night. Keep communication open and bring up any concerns if you think they might be bullied on social media. Have clear consequences should the teen break your cell phone rules. Suggest your teen take breaks from their cell phone to enjoy an outdoor activity. Teach the teen about online predators. Limit the types of social media platforms they can use. Because social media isn’t going anywhere, it is best for parents to take the offense and partner with their teen to help them negotiate the challenges and emotional landmines together. Learning ways to reduce the chances for teenage cell phone addiction can help your teen avoid risks to mental health.

Though intended perhaps to lean more towards gardening oneself into mental health, I read this from the perspective of cultivating and tending a digital garden, which for me is a fun and relaxing practice.
Oliver Sacks wrote that gardens are powerful in healing us.
Oliver Sacks wrote:
I cannot say exactly how nature exerts its calming and organizing effects on our brains, but I have seen in my patients the restorative and healing powers of nature and gardens, even for those who are deeply disabled neurologically. In many cases, gardens and nature are more powerful than any medication.
If gardens and potentially tending gardens is restorative, how might we create user interfaces that are calm and gentle enough to make tending one's digital garden a healthful and restorative process for our psyches?

Neuropsychiatrists at UCLA had found a willing partner in Governor Reagan’s California Department of Justice, to the tune of $750,000 (equivalent to roughly $4.5 million today), and a whopping $1.5 million from the state. It was prominently affiliated with researchers like Vernon Mark and Frank Ervin, who had gained scientific fame for their work creating brain implants in human patients to change behavior and motivation; also on board was former LAPD police chief James Fiske, a man known for terrorizing the city’s Black population.
It looks like Ronald Reagan had issues with mental health care even as far back as the 1970s. This incident at UCLA was just a precursor to defunding state mental health care that was already apparently having issues at the time.

Nursing professionals are facing with severe sleep problems during the covid 19 pandemic time. Nurses were asked to work in an environment that had a more increased level of risk than ever before. Depression and anxiety from the workplace could affect the confidence of healthcare workers in themselves as well as general trust in the healthcare system. This will lead to their turnover intention which may undermine the efforts of the governments to control the COVID-19 pandemic. The rising concern may change the working schedules of healthcare workers, offering more occupational healthcare support.

And also give The students with disabilities a chance to air their grievances. And also have teachers explain to them what’s going on and how they can make a change. Or have some additional counseling. Maybe we can even have a way to make sure everybody is safe both physically mentally. And educationally. Students with disabilities have a right to.

Rodolfo: I'm a victim of sexual abuse in the United States and there was a police report made and everything. And I've also been a victim of gang violence. I was never, you can check my background and everything. I was never into gangs or anything, but around the area I lived in there was a bunch of gangs and... I was beat up two or three times bad just by walking home. And it was all documented, I had police reports and everything. And because of that I was in therapy for while. My mother sought out a help from a psychiatrist because of the sexual abuse I had as a child in California, as a matter of fact.Rodolfo: I took Risperdal and a Ritalin, Risperdal for the anxiety and the Ritalin and for the ADHD. So, we tried everything. The mental health side, the mental health asylum, everything. But it was just going to take longer and longer and longer and I was tired of it. I didn't want to be locked up anymore. So, finally I just told my mom, “You know what man, that's it, I'm done. I don't want to do this anymore.” She asked me, “Is this what you want to do?” And I told her, “Yeah.”Rodolfo: She told me, “You know what? I'd much rather see you over there and be free then not being able to see you here at all.” Because there was a lot of people that went to go visit their loved ones and they used to get picked up. Sometimes they wouldn't even let you see your loved ones and right away ask you for your identification, your social security card, your nationality and everything and they would get picked up.Rodolfo: And I always told my mom, “Don't ever come visit me. Don't ever come visit me because if you do, chances are they're going to take you too.” And you know, that would always break my heart because I would want to see my mom. I'd want to see my dad and everything, but I wasn't able to. So, that experience was just horrible.Sergio: When you were in the detention center what were the conditions? Did you have access the medicine you needed? Did you have access to food and water?Rodolfo: The company that made the jail was called GEO Corp and they were actually, I'm not going to lie to you, they actually were pretty good, health-wise, not so much security-wise. A lot of things would happen in there that definitely shouldn't have ever happened. But with the food and everything, it was good. In my opinion it was because of the company. I feel as though if it was up to the government... Thank God it was an independent company that was hired by DHS as opposed to if DHS were to make their own jail, I feel they would be completely different.Rodolfo: It was [Pause] a pleasantly... there's no way to describe it, it was bad. It was bad, but for what it was I guess it was okay. I don't see there being an in-between or any pretty way to paint that picture as to how good or bad it was in there. Because at the end of the day you're deprived of your freedom. You can't just pick up the phone whenever you want and call your loved ones because you've got to pay for that too. You got pay for that. And if you want to take a shower, you have to buy your soap, right? You've got to buy it yourself, you've got to buy everything. And now you're becoming a liability for your family, you're becoming another bill.Rodolfo: You're becoming another bill and that's what I didn't want. So, that's why I started working. And now, older, I'm becoming another bill. So, I don't get it. You're taking us away from the jobs that we have and everything. You know? So, take us back to our country. And I'm not sure if it this is a fact or not, but I was reading when I first got in here, there was a time where there wasn't enough field workers for, I think, avocado—or, not avocado, I think it was oranges or something like that.Rodolfo: And I remember me saying, “Well, there goes all the deportees. There goes all the people you guys deported. Where are the people that were so outraged because we took your jobs? Go ahead, there you go. There are a lot of vacancies, making these open for those jobs, go ahead, man. All yours buddy, knock yourself out.”Rodolfo: But nobody wants to work those jobs, right? You see what I'm saying though, right?

Yeah, I still feel like I am. Sometimes it just hits you. Sometimes you're just alone in that bed and then everything just comes at you all at one time, and it sucks. But I tried to fight it as best as I can, because I know out of all these bad things that I'm going through, something's got to change.
