Seasonal affecting disorder : A mental health problem

By Dr S. K. jha

Seasonal affecting disorder is a psychological disorder in which depression occurs during the same time every year.

Many people enjoy the winter season.They travel to hill station for watching snowfall and enjoy with family and friends.

But do you know that some people feeling sadness or depression in cold , which is also known as “winter Blue”.

Actually,’winter Blue ‘ only comes during October month to April month.The shorter days of winter and the lack of sunlight can cause the body to produce too much melatonin anot enough serotonin,a neurotransmitter that helps in regulating the mood.

Researchers say that seasonal affecting disorder is a type of mood disorder that coincides with the changes in season.The most common form of SAD is depression starting when the season changes from fall to winter, often called Winter Depression.

People affected by this disorder will experience some or all other classic symptoms of depression which can be debilitating.

Causes

It is very very unclear what causes affects the SAD, though some researchers suggest people who experience seasonal depression may have trouble regulating serotonin,a neurotransmitter that helps regulate mood and is affected by exposure to sunlight.

When melatonin and serotonin levels are out of balance,it can be harder for people to adjust to seasonal changes in day length.Vitamin D , which promotes serotonin activity and is produced when skin is exposed to sunlight, also may play a vital role.

It is psychological mood disorder that is characterized by lethargy and depression dependent upon the season.The disorder is more common among people who experience a longer winter and less hours of sunlight than people closure to the equator.

This disorder is four times more common among females than males. It is usually develops around the age of 20 to 30 years old and also shows evidence of significant familial predisposition to developing the disorder.

Brain activity of SAD patients vary from healthy individuals.

Symptoms

1) felling of sadness

2) hopelessness, anxiety or irritability

3) loss of interest

4) social withdrawal

5) fatigue

6) food cravings and weight gain

7) trouble thinking

8) extreme difficulty in waking up in the morning

9) Depressed mood

10) Change in appetite

11) feeling of suicidal thoughts

Unlike other types of depression,if left untreated of SAD ,then seasonal affecting disorder usually improves when spring arrives.

Symptoms tend to come back and then improve at the same things every year.

Treatment

The most common treatment for SAD is phototherapy.

Medications are also used as treatment for seasonal affecting disorder. This treatment are usually used if light therapy does not work.Antidepreesants are effective at treating SAD. Selective serotonin inhibitors are also effective.

Simple lifestyle changes may be an easy way to mitigate the depressive symptoms associate with seasonal affecting disorder.

a) the walk outside around the ground for one hour a day.

b) add more lamps and brighten lightly at home and work.

c) avoid using sunglasses or contact lenses that are coated to shield UV light radiation because the interferes with light transmission to the pineal gland.

These simple lifestyle changes could be an effective treatment for those experiencing milder symptoms and may reduce symptoms of Seasonal affecting disorder.

So,be careful and always take the task easily,not in anxiety.

Kidney stones: is it health problems?

Kidney stones have been causing problems for thousands of years.Men are more likely to develop renal stones( 80% of patients with renal stones are male) and the most common age of occurrence is between 20-30 years old. People who develop renal calculi have about a 50 to 80% chances of having them recur.

It is estimated that one in ten people will have a kidney stone at some time in their lives. The risk of kidney stones is about 11%in men and 9%in women.other diseases such as high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity may increase the risk of kidney stones.

Kidney stones are also called renal calculi,which are hard,rock like deposits formed in the urinary tract. It is common (1% of population) and recurrent (50-80%) disorders that are usually preventable. Stones formation begins when urine becomes supersaturated with insoluble components due to excessive excretion or factors that diminish solubility.About 20%of kidney stones either from a general metabolism affecting the entire body or from a structural or metabolic problem of the kidney itself.

Metabolic problems include cystinuria and renal tubular acidosis.

Diseases of general metabolism that cause kidney stones are gout,hyperparathyroidism and abnormal intestinal absorption.

The remaining 80-90% of stone disease is idiopathic ( of unknown origin) . Idiopathic stone disease affects all ages. These stones are vary in size and there may be one or more.

Usually, these types of stones are :

1) calcium oxalate

2) calcium phosphate

3) struvita stone

4) uric acid stone – it occurs when urine is saturated with uric acid in the presence of an acid urine PH and dehydration.

Kidney stone is called colic because it often flares intermittently brought on by stretching of the ureters and kidney pelvis as the stone blocks the normal flow of urine.

Causes

Possible causes include drinking a little water, exercise ( too much or too little) , obesity, weight loss surgery or eating food with too much salt or sugar. Eating too much fructose correlates with increasing risk of developing a kidney stone.

Kidney stones increase the risk of developing chronic kidney disease.

Signs and symptoms

1) kidney stone pain which feels like throbbing or tenderness below the rib cage or in the back/ abdomen.

2) producing less urine than usual

3) fluid retention and swelling due to imbalance of electrolytes.

4) indigestion,nausea and loss of appetite

5) cognitive and mood changes due to hydration and shifting electrolytes levels such as confusion, trouble sleeping, fatigue and weakness.

Investigation

1) x- ray

2) sonogram of the abdomen

3) analysis of urine help to determine the diagnosis of kidney stones

4) blood examination

5) kidney function tests

Treatment

1) balanced diet

2) plenty of water drinking – drinking plenty of water helps in diluting the substances in the urine that cause stones.

3) getting very little calcium in diet can increase the level of oxalate and cause kidney stones,get only calcium if needed

4) cut down sodium – a low sodium diet is recommended for those who are stone prone

5) restricted animal protein – eating an excessive amount of animal proteins such as poultry,eggs, seafood and red meat increases the level of uric acid and could cause kidney stones.

6) a diet with high protein reduces the level of citrate,the chemical found in the urine which helps in the prevention of stone formation.

So, eat foods that are rich in magnesium, vitamin supplements as vitamin B6, vitamin C .

Appropriate medicine as advised by doctor

Last surgery or treated with ultrasonic shock therapy

These are the management and treatment for kidney stone diseases.

Prevention

Prevention of recurrence includes strategies such as drinking plenty of water, decreasing sodium intake, avoiding junk foods following medical advice regarding prescribed medications to reduce stone formation,so, kidney stones can cause serious kidney damage and should be properly treated to prevent long – term complications.

A deep thought about the future without fear

Fear or failure,fear or rejection that we are just not enough – fear can keep us locked up in the prison of the comfortable and predictable,which presents us from reaching our potential.

Don’t let fear control you.If you are living in fear , your anxieties have escalated to the point that they are running the show.

Many of us spend a lot of time of worry about the future and living in fear of the past or the present,that affects on our thoughts and health as well as on society. We create a habit of fear , when fear comes and we are upset and worried , the first thing we need to do is acknowledged that fear. We can recognise and embrace it rather than acting it out.

Our fear is not just from our own birth and childhood, the fear we feel comes from both our own and our activities. Our feeling and we show around us that many people are suffering from hunger and other changes in life and there were moments when we were extremely anxious. That kind of fear has been transmitted to us, everyone of us has that fear inside and because we suffer from that fear ,we make the situation worse.

We worry about our safety,our job and our family.we worry about external threats .

However,we can prepare for the future with planning and without getting consumed by our negative thoughts.Often we either don’t plan at all or we get caught up in obsessive planning because we fear the future and it’s uncertainty.The present moment is where we need to operate.So, we know,there is no losing ourselves in worries and fear concerning the future. If we are grounded in the present moment,we can bring the future into the present to have a deep look without losing ourselves in anxieties and uncertainty.

If we are truly determined and and know how to take care of the present situations or moment as best we can ,we are doing our best for the future already.

The same is true about the past. The teaching and practice of mindfulness don’t forbid looking deeply into the past.But if we allow ourselves to drawn in regret and sorrow concerning the past,that is not right mindfulness.If we are well established in the present situations,we can bring the past back to the present moment and have a deep look.we can very well examine the past and the future while we are established in the present moment. In fact, we can learn from the past and make a plan for the future in the best way if we are serious and giving deep thought in the present moment.

Dreaming

How can we let go of fear and relinquish the anger and violence in us? We must listen deeply and learn to practice the way how to control the anger and fear – meditation,yoga and calmness practice,which letting go of their fear and violence, anger.

Practising mindfulness of fear and looking deeply into its origin provide the answer.

Accept your past without regret, handle your present without confidence and face your future without fear.

Fear can’t coexist with positive emotions.we can not feel both scared and joyful or afraid and peaceful.

Why core muscle strength is so important?

A strong core helps keep a more upright and erect posture. The core muscles play a huge role in everyday activities like getting out of bed, walking in the market, going to the job etc. So, core muscles are the base of support for the entire body.

Core muscles are found in the obliques, abdominals, lower back and glutes. These four areas of the body are the ones that usually make the posture of a person.so, if the core muscles are physically powerful, they will maintain the balance of the body and will stabilize the system every time the person is working out and moving.

Long hours of reading, working, typing or standing at a workbench take their toll. Acutually calcium deposits in the joints, complete the process of immobilisation. Once, this calcification takes place, nothing can be done to reverse it. As an example, if a person walks in short, slow steps, then mostly we think that the person is old. because the hunched posture gives the clue.

So, as the ageing, we have to take precautions, and older people can take action before it is too late.

The best activities are regular stretching exercises that stretch the muscles and improve the flexibility of the core muscles.

The main responsibility of the core muscles is to provide enough power to the body to enable the physical activity that a person encounters.

So, many fitness workers believe that it is very important to strengthen the core muscles more than other muscles in the body. Strong core muscles can lessen a lot of health problems concerning posture.

Regular stretching exercise surrounds and supports the spine and pelvis and connects the body and lower body, effectively transferring forces from one to the other.

A strong core is very important for our posture. The ab muscles play a dominant role in the movement of every plane of motion as forward and backwards, rotational and left and right positions.

A weak core is the number one risk for potential injuries, especially lower back injuries.

So, Research shows that core strength training can help alleviate lower back pain.

Working on core strengths has numerous benefits from improved posture, balance and movement to pain management and injury prevention.

There are some major functions of the core muscles –

1) contains and protects the internal organs

2) stabilize the top part of the body over the bottom part

3) ensures greater mobility of the spine and trunk

4) control the pelvic-lumbar relationship

So, now we need to do exercise daily.

Always be the person who cares

Be the person who cares. Be the person who makes the effort, the person who loves others without hesitation for helping others. Be the person who never shies away from the depth of their feelings or the intensity of their hope. So be the person who believes in the softness of the world, in the goodness of other people , in the beauty of being open and untethered and trusting.

Be the person who takes the chance, and refused to hide. Be the person who makes people feel happy. Trust me when I say- be the person who cares.

Because the world does not need more carelessness, or any more disregard: because there is nothing stronger than someone who continues to stay soft in a world that has not always been kind to them.So, respect the old, weak and needy people when you are capable to do something for them. Help the poor and weak person when you are strong.Confess the fault, when you are wrong.Because , one day in life, you will be old, weak and wrong.

So, learn from everyone, learn from everyone because nobody knows everything but everyone knows something. Our thoughts and action make things beautiful. The whole world is in our minds and hearts. Learn to see things in the proper light. Learn to see a soul instead of their body and life.

The world is filled with people who no matter what you do, no matter what you try, but the world is also filled with those who will love you. The one who loves you is your people. Just always be the better person and make your intention pure. Pain is inevitable and it will always exist, but if you focus on understanding what you are and what you are feeling for others and why you are feeling it, you will overcome it.

Every test in our life makes us bitter or better. Every problem comes to break us or make us. The choice is ours whether we become a victim or a winner.

When you want to be happy, you have to let go of that and start with yourself. Be the person you can be proud of, and show respect and understanding. you have got so much soul to be handled by someone who has never been passionate.

Helping hand

Others may not change, but know that it is not up to you and be proud of how you are.

So, always be the person who cares.
