Di Asia yang pecandu alkohol tidak sebanyak di sana, mengantuk merupakan penyebab nomor satu.Pada orang yang tidak mengalami fase REM (rapid eye movement, fase tidur paling lelap), bisa terjadi gangguan kepribadian dan gangguan...

Oksigen yang berkurang dalam jaringan tubuh akan menyebabkan kekacauan pikiran.

by Rod MactaggartA new report from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) found that more than 30 percent of Americans, at some time in their lives, have met the criteria for alcohol abuse or dependence. Most of these people never received any treatment, and those who did often didn’t get treatment for 10 years or more – 10 years of alcoholism that could have been avoided with early and effective alcohol detox and rehab. This report refers to data from the National Epidemiologic Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions (NESARC), which surveyed 43,000 U.S. adults. The researchers found that only 24 percent of those who met the criteria for alcohol dependence r...

| A Depressed Mind Equals A Depressed Head |
| 2008-06-13 03:00:53 |
by frisThe words “mind over matter” are more than just three words randomly strung together to make something that sounds somewhat sensible. “Mind over matter” is more than just a myth, because there are times when a person's state of mind has considerable effects on matters of the flesh. Performance anxiety can make someone do a sub-par job on physical activities, like missing critical free throws and over-extending left jabs. Mental health can have an effect on a person's physical performance, with certain issues having more noticeable effects than others. As an example, there is the connection between depression and sexual impotence.Impotence is one of those problems that an increasing number of men have difficulty coming to terms with. It takes a significant amount of courage t...

| Natural Depression Treatments |
| 2008-06-13 02:57:47 |
by Jonathan AntenucciDepression is a serious illness, and it has been shown to affect no less than 6% of any sample population (America for example) at any given period. This means that many people in any given population, especially in the more industrialized countries, will be taking prescription drugs like Paxil or Prozac. These drugs have been out for many years now, even decades, and their production increased every year, yet there is also a steady increase in the number of depressed people in the U.S. and throughout the world. One can only infer from these facts that synthetic prescription medications for depression are not curing people of depression.What's more, most antidepressants have very serious, sometimes even fatal, side effects or withd...

| Why Do I Stay In Unhealthy Relationships With The Wrong People? |
| 2008-06-13 02:38:27 |
by M AdleyIn all areas of life, you tend to attract not what you want, but what you feel you deserve. On the surface, you may feel worthy of a fulfilling relationship, but at an unconscious level you may believe the opposite. When you get what you think you deserve, you feel fine. But when you get more than what you subconsciously feel you deserve, you may feel anxious and stressed out.If you stay in a relationship that you are not happy with, it's usually because you don't want to face another failure in your life. You also don't want all the time and effort you put into building the relationship to go to waste. You continue to try to make the relationship work, and the cycle continues. The more effort you put into the relationship, the harder it is to abandon your efforts. As this cycle ...

by Sarah BakewellHow to beat depression with CBTOver 18 million Americans are depressed. Many depression sufferers are completely unaware of it. They just go about their lives with no idea that they could be feeling a lot better and enjoying life a lot more.Even though it's probably not something you think about, your mood is a huge factor in your life. Feel bad; you'll do less, be less motivated and create less opportunities to make life better. Thoughts can cause emotions. Seems obvious doesn't it? But what's not obvious is that by changing the way you think you can vastly improve how you feel. The main aim of CBT is learning to identify irrational, distorted and unhelpful thoughts and replace them with helpful ones.Negative Automatic ThoughtsThese t...

| Folic Acid A Natural Antidepressant |
| 2008-06-13 02:25:21 |
by Mitamins TeamWhen women become pregnant, they are encouraged by their physicians to make certain they ingest enough folic acid each day as a type of “insurance” against birth defects related to the spine and brain. However, folic acid, which stimulates the growth of new cells in an individual, seems to have an incredible effect on the adults who take it, too. Namely, it appears to operate as an effective anti-depression treatment.Why Folic Acid WorksBecause folic acid promotes the regeneration of cells in the body, it has been surmised that it works as a depression treatment by promoting neural activity. In laymen’s terms, when depression occurs, many physicians believe that the problem lies with the brain’s inability to correctly “fire” thoughts and feelings; thus, emotions...

Nonetheless, according to recent studies and depending on the interpretation of the results of these studies about 1.3 to 6.4 percent of the population can be classified as having manic depressive disorder. This type of depression is characterized by mood swings between severe emotional lows (the depressive state) and highs (the manic state. In general manic depressive disorder is categorized as either Bipolar Type I or Bipolar Type II – the former defined by mania in its extreme form, the latter characterized by a less extreme expression of mania called hypo-mania.

| 2008-06-13 02:21:44 |
by Alex MatisThe diagnosis “depression”, while it may sound terrible to the one suffering from this mental disorder in the first instance, actually has lost much of its scariness over the past decades due to much better means to beat depression than available in the past. In addition, the causes of depression are also known in much more detail leading to an increased likelihood to find further new treatments to beat depression within the next years. The first line of treatment for depression sufferers is without doubt the use of anti-depressants prescribed by a medical practitioner, usually combined with some kind of talk therapy by a psychotherapist.

| Do You Live In The Bad Mood Zone? |

Even though it’s just an hour difference, many times we can quickly feel our mood enhance with the more daylight we get, or feel the blues when the days seem darker and shorter. But what causes this swing in mood and who does depression affect when it comes to this seasonal time change? The early switch to daylight saving time this week has mental health experts concerned that people suffering seasonal affective disorder will have a setback (News, March 8). "Research shows that it's the delay in sunrise -- not the overall hours of sunlight -- that has the biggest effect on mood during winter," says the Los Angeles Times. "People in the north have more depression, but so do people ...
