It’s a #privilege to be apolitical What about #politics and #Mentalhealth. Politics affects all the ways of life be it -Taxes we pay How safe we feel Financial allocation to health Roads we travel on Jobs we get News we consume Electricity we get So no , no one is spared form politics and it’s high time people wake up to realise what’s important and how to vote It’s also necessary to install voting and it’s importance in the new genz and first time voters The lack of voting percentage in affluent class was clearly reflected in this terms #election.
So glad to have left the place . The people and moved out of the city only . Deleted all the pictures and even trying to edit the memories of that place . So much of extreme bias and unnecessary drama over the most basic and useless stuff was probably not for the faint hearted like me . The experience gave me major anxiety AND IBS which are both stress induced illness and sadly are also chronic . Even after leaving the place , the illness stay with me as a reminder for that horrible time I had to survive just cause I loved that branch a lot . Redoing and undoing thesis over nothing Stealing files to even making do gyane duties which are behind the scope Isolation , targeting , politics and mind manipulation’s are just some of the things that u can remember now due to the brain fog over anxiety that place has given me . I am so so glad to have met nice people also along with getting to learn my favourite psychiatry degree but surely I didn’t deserve to get it over my Physical and mental health while also destroying my way of seeing outside world #sgrr #dehradun @medicosunited
Do you think it’s right ? Has recently happened with so many actresses and the news is just increasing Can anyone with a phone take indecent pictures of a persons who’s in a public image and post jt ? When there’s a #censor board for movies and also for #Instagram censoring all content left and right then why not this also ?Does being in the limelight take away one persons wishes and comfort to be photographed as and when people wish ?
Trapped in your own thoughts ? Pretty much everyone has intrusive thoughts now and then. These thoughts may show up for no obvious reason. But you may notice them more often (or be bothered by them) when you’re stressed or if you have a mental health condition such as anxiety, depression, or obsessive-compulsive disorder.OCD #obsessions are lasting and unwanted thoughts that keeping coming back or urges or images that are intrusive and cause distress or anxiety. You might try to ignore them or get rid of them by acting based on ritual. These obsessions usually intrude when you’re trying to think of or do other things.Intrusive thoughts are often associated with anxiety disorders such as obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). These types of thoughts can become more frequent when a person is feeling stressed or anxious.
Child caregiving load had significantly positive associations with mother’s psychological distress, fatigue, pain, and body mass index. Motherhood along with its beauty and so much blessing comes with so much of added work and stress specially in the Indian community and the stereotypes and n number of responsibilities #mothersday #drrashipsychiatrist

The struggle to become a doctor doesn’t end after securing degree and studying relentlessly for 8+ years . This is just the beginning Starts from either seeing a #job as SR in a govt / private medical college Which is a #nightmare in itself as the seats are released very slowly and that too interviews are very long and extensive at good colleges What I have learnt in 4 years of practice is that everyday is a struggle It can start from Arranging a place To trained staff Procuring the required #medicines and The #licenses for the same The endless registrations starting from NMC to local authorities to water , waste , electricity . The list goes on and on .To maintain good terms with the local police and the local influential people so that they don’t create ruckus The endless free advisory phone calls , The free #consultations of all known to And in the end one would usually be in the negative for 6 month to 1 year and only and only after that can I think about making something for oneself This is too after proper training and not including the cost of maintenance , staff salaries , marketing And advertisement machines bought and their repair and damage along with some unforeseeen circumstances Plus with a field like Psychiatry- the medico legal and the constant distraction and disappointment and ruckus that one deals on a day to day basis . I don’t want to sugar coat It’s not worth being a #doctor and starting your practice without heavy support these days and even after that the income is not constant and not even justified to your years of hardwork
India, the same vaccine, called Covishield and manufactured by the Pune-based Serum Institute, has been administered through 175 crore doses. Understandably, this raises questions as to the safety of the jab all of us took.Most Indians have already had three shots and it has been a long time since. Says Dr Gagandeep Kang, Director of Global Health at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, who was on the WHO safety advisory committee for COVID-19 vaccines, “It is most important to reassure people that the risk of TTS is shortly after vaccination. We are all long past vaccination now,”

Why #voting is important ? When going to the booth saw all kinds of turnout like - Families carrying their grandma Working class people Families Labourers Siblings And what not I saw all the combinations and was happy to see the #polling booth turnout to be better than before .But on seeing 54.85% voting was recorded in 8 constituencies of #UttarPradesh during second phase of #elections on Friday was so disappointed . With growing #populations and more first time voters , with advent of #socialmedia and so many campaigns else expected to see many many more turnout . But sadly this is the state and then we crib over bad infrastructure , bad management , policy %laws and #healthbudget allocation . People have no right to challenge if they are voting and fulfilling their responsibility to being in a responsible #government
Did I cover your city as well ? #mentalhealth #bustingmyths #drrashipsychiatrist #health #meerut
What’s up with Indian jijus ? @nickjonas whenever comes to India is greater with so much love and affection . In a recent trio along with Kevin and Joe Jonas for a concert also . Fans went gaga over their songs . India’s favourite ‘jiju’ didn’t come alone for the next trip also and was accompanied with @priyankachopra and their daughter . Why is it so difficult to drag Indian jijus to their in laws place and if this has anything to do with #patriarchy or just feeling superior or establishment of learned behaviour on their part and refusal to visit his wife’s place even occasionally on festival and showing extreme reluctancy for the same
Over the last few years, one or the other Godmen (the spiritual gurus, the’ babas’ or whatever name one may like to give them) emerges into the news for all the wrong reasons. From financial fraud to rape and even outright murder, these self-appointed spiritual gurus have been seizing national attention. From time to time, one of these self-styled gurus – we may have never heard the name of some of them before and who has lakhs of crazy fans – is charged with a crime. The guru maintains his innocence despite compelling evidence; his followers allege conspiracy and sometimes even take up arms against the state. The guru may eventually even go to prison, but his followers refuse to stop believing in him. #fakebaba #guru #quack #health #mentalhealth #faithhealing

If you suffer from #anxiety, you probably have a contentious and complicated #relationship with your mind. It feels like your mind tortures you. It gives you all these thoughts about what you should be scared of and horrible things that could happen to you. It tells you that you need to worry, analyze, and seek reassurance about all these things. It never shuts up. It won't leave you alone. Perhaps worst of all, when you try to tell it why you probably don't need to be afraid of all the things it says will happen, it calls you crazy or stupid or any number of bad names. It's a bully.It feels like your mind is torturing you.And yet…you worship your mind. You take what it says very seriously. You believe that if your mind says something, it must be important. It must mean something. No matter how mean your mind is to you, you give it the utmost respect and trust. That's the problem.It is your torturer, and yet you worship it. In what other situation would you ever want to worship your own torturer?

The laser carbon peel is a fast and painless procedure done to help improve the look of skin.It’s used primarily by people with oily skin, acne, and enlarged or clogged pores. This treatment is also beneficial if you’re starting to see the effects of sun damage to your skin.👩🏽⚕️Your doctor will spread a layer of liquid carbon onto your face. 👩🏽⚕️The carbon absorbs oil, dirt, and dead skin cells from deep within the pores.👩🏽⚕️You’ll wait for about 10 minutes for the liquid carbon to dry.👩🏽⚕️After the carbon has dried, your doctor will give you eye shields to protect your eyes from the laser.👩🏽⚕️Your doctor will pass a laser, such as the Nd:YAG, over the skin on a low-energy setting. This heats up the carbon, binding it to the epidermis.👩🏽⚕️If you have very sensitive skin or dark patches like melasma, your doctor may recommend skipping the heating step. 👩🏽⚕️The laser also heats up subdermal tissue, boosting collagen and plumping up fine lines.👩🏽⚕️On a higher-energy setting, the laser will be used to fragment the liquid carbon into tiny particles.👩🏽⚕️A smoke evaporator attached to the laser will remove the carbon as well as the debris and impurities it contains.👩🏽⚕️Your doctor may also apply a hydrating moisturizer and sunscreen to your skin after treatment.#laser #skinpeel #chemicalpeel #carbonpeel #laserpeel #acne #hyperpigmentation #acnescars #PIH
