Depression is that word we tossed around too effectively these days. That word we use to portray anything from a terrible day to a staggering capacity to carry on with a real existence. Yet, as anyone with depression knows, it is considerably more than any single word can depict. It gradually takes one individual life to where they overlook how everything started. It is deceptive, crawling up and developing after some time. Little, unnoticeable thing changes at first, prompting the greater changes. At that point, as though out of blue, that popular dark cloud is overhead.
Depression is when everything feels excessively hard. At the point when you feel so low that thing you recently delighted in no longer hold that equivalent satisfaction. You wonder how you at any point appreciated anything by any stretch of the imagination. You wonder what others have that you can't take a few to get back some composure of. You think that its increasingly hard to escape the bed in the first part of the day. You drag yourself as the day progressed. You think that its hard to go bed around evening time. The low is low to the point that it appears to dominate, overpowering you such that you were unable to have envisioned in advance.
Depression is at first a response. A response to an actual existence that you never envisioned would be yours. It is an in-acknowledgment of how things are or were. It is absence of self consideration and a providing for quite a bit of you to the others. It is a profound annoyance at a foul play or shamefulness throughout everyday life. It is an absence of vitality to take anything else of what life has for you. It is a profound pity and a lament. It is the entirety of this and significantly more. We are not generally mindful of why it happens due to how gradually and discreetly it sneaks up on us.
Initially, there should be an acknowledgment that depression is a mind-blowing piece for the present. Own up to it for yourself. With depression it is a counterproductive to continue professing to be alright. Besides, permit yourself the time expected to get past this; it doesn't require some investment. There is no enchantment fix, however as gradually as it created, it can gradually show signs of improvement. Before depression it was very difficult to envision what are you experiencing now, similarly as now it is difficult to envision regularly feeling much improved. Be that as it may, don't permit not having the option to envision a superior future put you off creation changes now.
Finally, as it incomprehensible as it appears to do, you have to find support from some place, be it your doctor, professional, or that individual that is consistently there attempting to encourage you out of this. None of these individuals will do it perfectly, however they will bolster you, and you have to permit them to occur. There is consistently opposition, and at times the greatest fight can be settling on that decision to permit other to help. Hope is something that vanishes with depression, so for the present I will seek after you until you find that desire again for yourself.

A brain hemorrhage is a type of stroke. It's a medical condition that is caused by rupturing and bursting of an artery in the brain and causing localized bleeding in the brain and surrounding tissues. This bleeding kills brain cells. Brain hemorrhages are also called cerebral hemorrhages, intracranial hemorrhages, or intracerebral hemorrhages.
Cerebral bleeding affects about 2.5 per 10,000 people each year. It occurs more often in males and older people. About 44% of those affected die within a month. A good outcome occurs in about 20% of those affected.
:
There are several risk factors and causes of brain hemorrhages. The most common include:
1. Hypertension(High blood pressure)
2. Aneurism (abnormally weak or dilated blood vessels that leak)
3. Head trauma / Head injury
4. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy(Buildup of amyloid protein within the artery walls of the brain)
5. A brain tumor that presses on brain tissue causing bleeding.
6. Atherosclerosis (buildup of fatty deposits in the arteries )
7. Arteriovenous malformation(A leak from abnormally formed connections between arteries and veins)
:
Symptoms of a brain hemorrhage depend on the area of the brain involved. In general, symptoms of brain bleeds can include:
1. Sudden tingling, weakness, numbness, or paralysis of the face, arm, or leg, particularly on one side of the body.
2. Sudden or severe headache
3. Nausea or vomiting
4. Difficulty in speaking or understanding speech
5. Loss of consciousness
6. Seizures
7. Change in vision/change in balance
It is essential to recognize these symptoms quickly to allow treatment to start as soon as possible.
:
• Call for emergency help immediately if you think a friend or family member may be having symptoms of hemorrhage.
• To diagnose and classify your stroke, your doctor will need an imaging test of your brain. Several tests can be useful, including a CT or MRI scan/Lumber puncture/Cerebral Angiography
• Surgery may be necessary to treat severe brain hemorrhage.
• Other treatment options include anti-anxiety drugs, anti-epileptic drugs, and other medications to control symptoms, such as seizures and severe headaches.
• Over time and with extensive rehabilitation efforts, including physical, occupational, and speech therapy, patients can regain function.
:
1. People with high blood pressure need to receive regular checkups and take steps to lower their blood pressure.
2. People with diabetes need to make sure that they keep blood sugar levels under control. Many people with diabetes also have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and maybe overweight, all of which are risk factors for stroke.
3. Individuals should include foods in the diet that improve heart and brain health.
4. Some of the most significant changes that can help reduce the risk of brain hemorrhages involve diet and exercise.

Modern forms of CBT begin with an introduction to the CBT model of social anxiety so that patients can identify their own thoughts and behaviors that maintain their social anxiety, and the manner and reasons for modifying them.

Three Tips For Mental Health During COVID-19 & Zoom👩🏻‍💻
By Roshaanfatima (Department of Psychology)

While the ability to connect online may seem like a good thing, there is a cost.
Social distancing has kept us physically separated. At the same time, technology has led to more connection than ever. Texts, voice notes, emails, video chats, tweets, and live news conferences are at an all-time high. Total internet hits have surged by up to 70%. Our relationship with technology may be negatively affecting our mental, emotional, and physical well-being.
Anxiety, fear, and depression have escalated as people continue to become ill and experience isolation, unemployment, financial insecurity, and other hardships.
(´;︵;`)
Research indicates that activities such as yoga, exercise, and meditative practice directly influence nervous system and subsequently produce anti-stress properties, reducing the physiological and psychological damage of loneliness and isolation. These types of activities decrease the stress hormone and boost your immune system. Such practices increase joy and relaxation.
Moreover, many of these practices are best conducted in a group setting which pushes you to engage even when you may feel like giving up, and encourages a sense of community.
Just last week, I was singing and doing exercise in my living room with my 3 other friends via a live Zoom meeting
♪┌|∵|┘♪♩♬
Technology is not inherently good or bad; healthy or unhealthy. Rather, it is the way in which we use it that makes a difference in how we think, act, and feel. In other words, what we choose to view and engage with, how often we engage, and our intention impacts how we function.

Here are some tips for healthier technology use and related -being:
1. Consider more adaptive uses of technology to help mitigate both short-term and long-term stress instead of increase it. Cultivate an intention to use technology with a greater sense of personal control over your engagement.
2. Find ways to moderate your media consumption. It is important that we all stay informed and continue to educate ourselves about preventative and protective measures by accessing COVID-19-related information online. However, too many people become consumed with this information. They may find themselves ruminating about sickness, contagion, and death. Instead of being tuned in all day, you may want to consider checking media outlets only once or twice a day, and not doing so right when you wake up or before bedtime.
3. Consider ways to be a more discerning consumer of technology in terms of purpose, content, and frequency, with the goal of mental and emotional health. Examples may be reaching out to others online for support, and engaging in activities that promote a sense of purpose and meaning, as well as relaxation. Choose news sources that provide up to date and scientifically sound information based on the best available research.

Navigating this pandemic by understanding the ways in which technology can be a source of healing or stress is imperative to our well-being. Try to strike a balance and remember: We’re all coping as best we can.｡◕‿◕｡

سائیکولوجسٹ سے اچھا سائیکولوجسٹ بننے کا سفر کیسے طے کریں.*... ؟
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

جسمانی صحت و تندرستی ، خوشی و راحت کی کیفیت کا دارومدار ذ ہنی صحت پر ہوتا ہے۔ اگر انسان کسی وجہ سے ذہنی طورپر صحت مند نہ ہو تو اس کے اثرات پورے Body پر مرتب ہوتے ہیں ،
ذہنی صحت کے ان بگڑتے ہوۓ حالات کو اور نفسیات کے علم کی مستقبل قریب میں ضرورت اور اہمیت کو مدنظر رکھتے ہوۓ پچھلے چند سالوں میں طالبعلموں کی ایک بہت بڑھ تعداد نے اس فیلڈ Field کا انتخاب کیا ہے..... مگر پاکستان میں سرکاری سطح پر نفسیات کی کونسل نہ ہونے کی وجہ سے نہ تو لوگوں کو اب تک ذہنی صحت بارے آگاہی دی گئی ہے اور نہ ہی نفسیات کی ڈگری دینے والی یونیورسٹیز کو اس قابل بنایا گیا ہے کہ وہ اچھے ماہر نفسیات پیدا کر سکیں...
یاد رکھیے نفسیات ایک سائنس کی فیلڈ Field ہے لیکن نفسیات کے علم کو اپلائی Apply کرکے لوگوں کے مسائل کو حل کرنا یعنی کہ ماہر نفسیات بننا ایک آرٹ ہے..... پاکستان میں کیریئر کونسلنگ Counseling Career کے فقدان کی وجہ سے مستقبل کے کریئر کونسلر خود بھی کبھی کبھی غلط فیلڈ کا انتخاب کر بیٹھتے ہیں..... نفسیات کی ڈگری لے کر ماہر نفسیات تو ہر کوئی بن سکتا ہے مگر ایک اچھا ماہر نفسیات بننے کے لیے آپ کے اندر کچھ خداد صلاحتیں ہونا بے حد ضروری ہے...
ہمارے ینگ سائیکالوجسٹ Psychologist Young میں اکثریت ایسے لوگوں کی ہے جو ایک اچھا ماہر نفسیات بننے کے لیے درکار خداداد صلاحیتوں مثلا Good Communication skills, Empathy, Problem Solving Ability, Appropriate boundaries, Trustworthiness , Patience, Solid Ethical Codes, Cross cultural Sensitivity. سے قاصر ہیں.....ان خصوصیات کی عدم موجودگی, پروفیشنل ٹریننگ Professional Training کی کمی اور سینئرز Seniors کی طرف سے راہنمائی نہ ملنے کی وجہ سے وہ خود اس فیلڈ میں یا تو ذہنی طور پر نکام تسلیم کر لیتے یا پھر اس فیلڈ کا سکوپ Scope نہ ہونے کا غلط اندازہ لگا کر خود ڈپریشن کا شکار ہو جاتے ہیں......

ان میں سے اکثریت ایسے طالبعلموں کی بھی ہے جو نفسیات میں سولہ سالہ ڈگری لینے کے بعد اگر ایک ماہر نفسیات سے اچھے ماہر نفسیات بننا کا سفر طے کرنے میں ناکام رہیں تو فورا ایم ایس کی ڈگری کے لیے اپلائی کر دیتے ہیں... جو میرے خیال سراسر غلط اور نفسیات کی فیلڈ کے ساتھ نا انصافی ہے. .نفسیات میں ایم ایس MS یا پی ایچ ایڈ P.hd کی ڈگری آپ کو نفسیات کے کسی مختص شعبے میں اسپیشلسٹ بناتی ہے..... اور ایک اسپیشلسٹ ماہر نفسیات بننے کے لیے پہلے آپ کو ایک اچھا ماہر نفسیات بننا اتنا ہی ضروری ہوتا ہے جیسے ایک پائلٹ پہلے جہاز اڑانا سیکھتا ہے اور پھر کئی ہزار گھنٹے فلائنگ کے بعد وہ ایکسپرٹ Expert پائلٹ بنتا ہے...اس لیے میری ذاتی راۓ ہے کہ اگر آپ ایک بہترین ماہر نفسیات بننے کا ذوق رکھتے ہیں تو اپنی سولہ سالہ ڈگری کے بعد کم از کم تین سال آپ عملی طور Practically ماہر نفسیات بن کر کام کریں....اس کے بعد آپ کا ایم ایس یا پھر پی ایچ ڈی آپ کے کام کا بھی ہے اور آپ کو اسپیشلسٹ Specialist بھی بناتا ہے بصورت دیگر آپ پی ایچ ڈی کر کے بھی فقط اس قابل رہتے ہیں کہ کسی یونیورسٹی میں نفسیات پڑھا سکیں................نفسیات پڑھنا اور پڑھانا ایک سائنس ہے مگر ماہر نفسیات بننا ایک آرٹ ہے...
اس لیے میرا تمام ینگ سائیکالوجسٹس Young Psychologist
کو یہ مشورہ ہے کہ سب سے پہلے اندرد موجود ان خصوصیات کو Polish کریں جو ایک ماہر نفسیات بننے کے لیے درکار ہیں... اس کے بعد اپنے اندر وہ تمام خصوصیات پیدا کریں جو ایک کونسلر Counsellor میں ہوتی ہیں... یاد رکھیے آپ جب تک اچھے انسان نہیں بنتے آپ ایک اچھے ماہر نفسیات نہیں بن سکتے ہیں... آپ کی باتوں میں وہ تاثیر Effectiveness ہونا ضروری ہے جسے سن کر آپ کا کلائینٹ Client ایک عام انسان اور ماہر نفسیات کے فرق Difference کو محسوس کر سکے.....خود کو ذہنی طور پر خوش اور مطمئن Satisfy رکھیں کیونکہ آپ کا کام لوگوں کے زخموں کو الفاظ کے دھاگوں سے سینے کا ہے لیکن اگر آپ کے اپنے زخم کچے ہونگے تو آپ دوسروں کے زخم نہیں بھر سکتے..... ڈگریوں کی بلندیوں سے نکلیئے پہلے ہی پاکستان میں ہزاروں لوگوں پی ایچ ڈی کی ڈگریاں لے کے بیٹھے ہیں ہمارے ملک میں عملی طور پر Professionally کام کرنے والوں کی کمی ہے...... دوسرے لفظوں میں ہمارے ملک ماہر نفسیات سے بھرا پڑا ہے لیکن اچھے ماہر نفسیات کی تعداد چند سینکڑوں سے زیادہ نہیں ہے....... ہمت کیجئے... ارادہ باندھیئے.... یہ سفر طے کیجیئے....اور بہت ساروں کے جھرمٹ سے نکل کو چند کے جھارے میں آ کر بیٹھیئے تاکہ آپ نے جس مقصد کے لیے اس فیلڈ کا انتخاب کیا تھا اس مقصد کو پورا کر سکیں............

《 بچوں کے نفسیاتی مسائل 》
( لکنت / ہکلاہٹ )
ہکلانے کی کئی علامات اور قسمیں ہیں. اکثر ہم دیکھتے ہیں کہ کچھ بچے یا بڑے
● بات کرتے کرتے رک جاتے ہیں اور کچھ وقفے کے بعد بات کرتے ہیں
● الفاظ کو کھینچ کر بولتے ہیں، کچھ حرف یا الفاظ کو بولنے میں انہیں دقت ہوتی ہے
● ایک ہی لفظ لفظ بار بار دہراتے ہیں
● ایسا بھی دیکھا گیا ہے کہ کچھ بچے یا بڑے غصہ کرتے ہوئے ہکلاتے ہیں
●بعض اوقات ایسا بھی دیکھا گیا ہے کہ کچھ لوگ دوستوں کے ساتھ محفل میں گانا گاتے ہیں گپ شپ لگاتے ہیں لیکن لیکن جونہی اسی محفل میں کوئی اجنبی آجائے یے تو وہ ہکلانا شروع کر دیتے ہیں
● ماہرین کے مطابق یہ صرف ذہنی رویوں کی وجہ سے ہوتا ہے
● ایک سروے کے مطابق یہ مرض سو میں سے ہر پانچویں بچے کو ہوتا ہے
● یہ مرض 5 سے 8 سال کی عمر میں میں لگتا ہے
■ ماہر نفسیات الفریڈ ایڈلراپنی مشہور کتاب { *انڈرسٹینڈنگ ہیومن نیچر* } میں قوت گویائی کے بارے میں لکھتے ہیں انسان کی نشوونما میں دوسرا اہم کردار قوت گویائی ہے جو انسان کو حیوان سے جدا کرتی ہے.
● ماہرین کے مطابق لکنت/ ہکلانے کے دو اہم اسباب ہیں۔

1 *.عضویاتی اسباب**

2 *. نفسیاتی اسباب**

*《 عضویاتی اسباب* 》

☆ انسانی دماغ میں ایک حصہ جسے سپیچ ایریا کہتے ہیں اگر اس حصے میں کوئی خرابی آجائے یا وہ حصہ دماغ کے موٹر ایریا سے منقطع ہو جائے تو لکنت ہکلاہٹ جنم لیتی ہے.
☆ دماغ کے اس حصے میں یہ خرابی کسی صدمے، حادثے یا حمل کے دوران ماں کے پیٹ میں ہوتی ہے.
■ اس کے علاوہ بعض ڈاکٹروں کی بھی رائے ہے کہ ٹائیفائیڈ (میعادی بخار) ،خسرہ اور طاعون بھی لکنت / ہکلانے کی وجہ بن سکتے ہیں

*《 نفسیاتی اسباب 》*

لکنت یا ہکلاہٹ پیدا کرنے کی کئی نفسیاتی وجوہات ہوتی ہیں. ان میں سے چند اہم درج ذیل ہین.
☆ بچے کی باتوں کو اہمیت نہ دینا
☆ مسلسل بغیر کسی وقفہ کے بچوں کی پیدائش سے والدین بڑے بچوں سے اپنا دھیان ہٹا لیتے ہیں تو اس طرح وہ توجہ حاصل کرنے کے لئے ہکلانا شروع کر دیتے ہیں.
☆ احساس کمتری
☆ غصہ جسکا بچہ اظہار نہ کر سکے
☆ عدم تحفظ
☆ بد حواس(Nervousness )
☆ بچے کی باتوں کو غور سے نہ سننا
☆ والدین کے روزانہ کے جھگڑے
☆ سخت گیر والدین
☆ والدین کا خوف اور ڈر

تو آپ سب کو چاہیئے کہ اپنے بچوں کی باتوں کو غور سے سنیں انھیں feedback دیں. بچوں کے سامنے اپنے مالی، معاشی مسائل کا ذکر نہ کریں. انھیں خوب پیار کریں. ان میں خود اعتمادی پیدا کریں. بچوں کے دوست بنیں. ان کے لئے وقت نکالیں. سپیچ تھراپسٹ سے proper علاج کروائیں.
