Anxiety is a normal part of being human, but when it starts to interfere with your life and relationships, it can be hard to manage.

Vulnerability is an important aspect of mental health and one that can be tapped by providing a supportive environment and psychoeducation about anxiety disorders.

In phobic disorders avoidance of fearful situations or, exposure techniques are included in the treatment schedule, in which patients are confronted with their feared situations. For specific phobias, there is behavioral therapy, which should be performed as exposure treatment.

Both psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy have been shown to be more effective. Drugs like SSRIs, tricyclic antidepressants, buspirone, benzodiazepines, etc are recommended.

Hypnosis, autogenic training, and biofeedback or complementary medicine methods such as acupuncture, osteopathy, or homeopathy are often recommended for the treatment of clinical anxiety.

In most cases, drug treatment and behavioral therapy may substantially improve the quality of life in anxiety patients.

TODAY'S HEALTH TIPS

- CUT DOWN ON PROCESSED FOOD : Processed food is not good because (a) most of the nutritional value is lost in the creation of these foods, and (b) the added preservatives are bad for our health. Many processed foods contain a high amount of salt which leads to higher blood pressure and heart disease. In general, the more ingredients a food has on the label (ending with ‘ite’ or ‘ate’), the more processed it is. Go for less processed food such as a baked potato over chips, fresh fruit over canned fruit, and intact grains over white bread.

- CHOOSE INTACT GRAINS OVER REFINED GRAINS. Intact grains contain all the essential parts of the grain seed; in other words, they contain 100% of the original kernel, which includes the bran, germ, and endos***m. Because these layers are intact, the grain contains a richer nutritional profile of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals than refined grains (which are grains stripped of the bran and germ layers through processing).

Go for intact grains like steel cut oats, barley, brown rice, quinoa, buckwheat, millet. Refined grains include white rice, white flour, most types of bread, white pasta, quick oats, and cereals. The more processing a grain has been through, the more refined it is. If you’re starting out, there’s no need to 100% ban refined grains — moderation is the key. Transition to a more intact-grains-based diet by swapping refined grains with intact grains for 1-2 meals a week and increasing it from there.

- LOVE YOURSELF . Self-love is a crucial part of living a healthy life. When you have a negative self-image, it naturally weighs down on your mental outlook and health. How much do you love yourself on a scale of 1-10?

- WALK /RUN BAREFOOT : There are many benefits of barefoot walking/running, from having a better posture to less stress for your feet and joints. If the terrain in your neighborhood is too sharp, wear barefoot shoes.
Purge negative people from your life. Positive mental health is part of a healthy life. You don’t need toxic people in your life. If you feel that a friend is overly critical or negative, let him/her go.

- PURGE NEGATIVITY FROM YOURSELF : You don’t need negativity from yourself either. Listen to the thoughts that come up and get rid of your negative thoughts. One great way to remove your negativity is to brain dump when you feel frustrated. I do this with my clients, where I ask them to write out their deepest thoughts so that we can address them. Don’t keep these thoughts pent up inside you — it’s not healthy.

- AVOID TRIGGER FOODS. Trigger foods are the foods that make you go berserk and binge after you eat them. Everyone’s trigger foods are different (mine used to be doughnuts, pastries, and chips), but generally trigger foods are candy bars, chocolate, confectionery, chips, cookies, or anything with a high level of refined sugar, salt, or flour. These foods cause a blood sugar imbalance, hence triggering one to eat more. What are your trigger foods? Identify them and remove them from your diet.

- BREATHE DEEPLY : Oxygen is vital for life. You may know how to breathe, but are you breathing properly? Most of us aren’t breathing properly — we take shallow breaths and breathe to 1/3 of our lung capacity. Athletes are taught proper breathing techniques to get their best performance. A full breath is one where your lungs are fully filled, your abdomen expands, and there’s minimum movement in your shoulders.

- IMPROVE YOUR POSTURE : Having a good posture improves your breathing and makes you look smarter and more attractive.

ADDRESS EMOTIONAL EATING ISSUES . Do you eat when you feel stressed, bored, or frustrated? Emotional eating is eating to fill an emotion rather than real hunger. However, emotional eating will never make you feel happy because you’re trying to fill a void that has nothing to do with food. Food doesn’t give you love or happiness; it’s just food. Get to the root of the issue and address it.

- EAT SMALL MEALS : Choose several small meals over huge meals as it evens out your energy distribution. It’s also better for your stomach as it doesn’t over-stretch from digesting a huge volume of food at one go. In general, eat when you feel hungry and stop when you’re full. You don’t need to wait until official mealtimes before you start eating. Listen to your body and what it tells you.

Dr DAVID MOLONGWE:

I just came back from a friend's burial in Chicago USA. The burial was very touching and emotional. He died of Prostrate Cancer. I found it necessary to share with us just to remind us again for necessary care of ourselves....

The Prostate Gland and its effect on us , (men only).
Read it and apply, esp the part on diet.
Useful for all MEN over-40:

A useful article / talk on Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH) or in simple terms, Enlarged Prostate. Diet is the most important part of this talk which is something within our control; and it works.

FULL TEXT OF PROSTATE HEALTH AWARENESS LECTURE

MEN MUST READ

Gentlemen,

I am here to speak with you on Prostate. The topic is misleading. Is prostate strictly for men? Yes, ONLY men have prostate and ONLY men over 40 years but the healthcare enlightenment is for everyone. There is no woman who does not know a man 40 years and above, father, uncle, brother, son, friend, neighbour, colleague...

Essentially what I will be doing today is health promotion. Responsible health promotion must provide three things:

1. Information
2. Reassurance
3. A plan of action.

Let me start with a background on prostate health.

Everyone has a pair of kidneys. The job of the kidney is to remove waste. It is the LAWMA (waste management company) of your body. Everyday your blood passes through the kidney several times to be filtered. As the blood is filtered, urine is formed and stored in a temporary storage tank called the urinary bladder.

If there were to be no urinary bladder, as a man walks on the road, urine will be dropping.

Now think of the plumbing work in your house. Think of the urinary bladder as the overhead storage tank. From the storage tank, a good plumber will run pipes to other parts of the house, including the kitchen. God in His wisdom ran pipes from our urinary bladder to the tip of the p***s. The pipe is called the urethra. Just below the bladder and surrounding the urethra is a little organ called the prostate gland.

The prostate gland is the size of a walnut and weighs about 20grams. Its job is to make the seminal fluid which is stored in the seminal vesicle. During s*xual in*******se, seminal fluid comes down the urethra and mixes with the s***ms produced in the testicles to form the semen. So semen technically is not s***m. It is s***m + seminal fluid. The seminal fluid lubricates the s***m.

After age 40, for reasons that may be hormonal, the prostate gland begins to enlarge. From 20 grams it may grow to almost 100 grams. As it enlarges, it squeezes the urethra and the man begins to notice changes in the way he urinates.

If you have a son under 10, if he has a little mischief like we all did at that age, when he comes out to urinate, he can target the ceiling and the jet will hit target. Call his father to do same, wahala dey. His urine stream is weak, cannot travel a long distance and sometimes may come straight down on his legs. So he may need to stand in awkward position to urinate.

Not many men will be worried their urine stream cannot hit the ceiling. Toilets are on the floor and not on the ceiling. But other symptoms begin to show.

TERMINAL DRIPPLING:

The man begins to notice that after urinating and repacking, urine still drops on his pants. This is the reason why after an older man urinates, he has to ring bell. A younger man simply delivers to the last drop and walks away. Just see an older man coming from the bathroom. Sometimes he may clutch the newspaper closely to hide the urine stains, particularly on plain colored trousers.

HESISTANCY

At this point you wait longer for the urine flow to start. There are 2 valves that must open for you to urinate – the internal and external sphincters. Both open but because of obstructions in the urethra, you wait longer for the flow to start.

INCOMPLETE EMPTYING

You have this feeling immediately after urinating that there is still something left.

As all these things happen, the bladder begins to work harder to compensate for the obstruction in the urethra. The frequency of urination goes up. Urgency sets in. Sometimes you have to practically run into the toilet. Nocturia also becomes common. You wake up more than 2 times at night to urinate. Your wife begins to complain.

Men being men may not talk to anyone even at this point. Then the more serious complications start.

Stored urine gets infected and there may be burning sensation when urinating.

Stored urine forms crystals. Crystals come together to form stone either in the bladder or in the kidney. Stones may block the urethra.

Chronic urinary retention sets in. The bladder stores more and more urine. The size of the bladder is 40 - 60cl. A bottle of coke is 50cl. As the bladder stores more urine it can enlarge up to 300cl. An overfilled bladder may leak and this leads to wetting / urinary incontinence. Also the volume may put pressure on the kidney and may lead to kidney damage.

What may likely bring the man to hospital is acute urinary retention. He wakes up one day and he is not able to pass urine.

Everything I have described above is associated with prostate enlargement, technically called benign prostate hyperplasia.

There are other diseases of the prostate like:

1. Prostatitis – inflammation of the prostate

2. Prostate cancer – cancer of the prostate.

This discussion is on prostate enlargement.

I have bad news and good news.

The bad news is that everyman will have prostate enlargement if he lives long enough.

The good news is that there are life style changes that can help the man after 40 to maintain optimum prostate health.

NUTRITION

Look at what you eat. 33% of all cancers, according to the US National Cancer Institute is related to what we eat.
Red meat everyday triples your chances of prostate disease. Milk everyday doubles your risk. Not taking fruits / vegetables daily quadruples your risk.

Tomatoes are very good for men. If that is the only thing your wife can present in the evening, eat it with joy. It has loads of lycopene. Lycopene is the most potent natural antioxidant.
Foods that are rich in zinc are also good for men. We recommend pumpkin seeds (ugbogulu).
Zinc is about the most essential element for male s*xuality and fertility.

Men need more zinc than women. Every time a man ej******es he loses 15mg of zinc. Zinc is also important for alcohol metabolism. Your liver needs zinc to metabolize alcohol.

ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION

As men begin to have urinary symptoms associated with prostate enlargement, it is important they look at alcohol consumption. More fluid in means more fluid out.

Drink less. Drink slowly.

EXERCISE

Exercise helps build the muscle tone. Every man should exercise. Men over 40 should avoid high impact exercise like jogging. It puts pressure on the knees. Cycling is bad news for the prostate. We recommend brisk walking.

SITTING
When we sit, two-third of our weight rests on the pelvic bones. Men who sit longer are more prone to prostate symptoms. Do not sit for long hours. Walk around as often as you can. Sit on comfortable chairs. We recommend a divided saddle chair if you must sit long hours.

DRESSING

Men should avoid tight underwear. It impacts circulation around the groin and heats it up a bit. While the physiological temperature is 37 degrees, the groin has an optimal temperature of about 33 degrees. Pant is a no - no for men. Wear boxers. Wear breathable clothing.

SMOKING

Avoid smoking. It affects blood vessels and impact circulation around the groin.

S*X

Regular s*x is good for the prostate.

Celibates are more pronenn to prostate illness. While celibacy is a moral decision, it is not a biological adaptation. Your prostate gland is designed to empty its contents regularly.
__________

Thought: when someone shared something of value with you and benefit from it. You have a moral obligation to share it with others because someone in your friends list might be saved.

TODAY'S HEALTH TIPS

1. Drink a lot of water. The majority of us do not drink enough water on a daily basis. Our bodies require water to function properly. Are you aware that water makes up more than 60% of our bodies? Water is required for biological processes, waste removal, and the transport of nutrients and oxygen throughout our bodies. We need to replenish our water intake since we lose water every day through p*e, bowel movements, perspiration, and breathing.
Water

Furthermore, drinking water aids weight loss. According to a study conducted by Health.com among overweight or obese persons, water drinkers lose 4.5 pounds more than a control group! The reason for this, according to the experts, is that drinking more water helps to fill your stomach, making you feel less hungry and less prone to overeat.

The amount of water we require is determined by a variety of factors such as humidity, physical activity, and weight, but on average, we require 2.7-3.7 liters each day. [2] Because food accounts for roughly 20% of our fluid intake, we need to drink about 2.0-3.0 liters of water, or about 8-10 glasses (now you see why the 8 glasses suggestion exists!). Your urine should be slightly yellow if you're properly hydrated. You're not getting enough water if it's not light yellow or even orange. Other symptoms include chapped lips, a dry mouth, and infrequent urination. Before you continue reading this post, go get some water!

2. Make sure you get enough rest. When you don't get enough sleep, you compensate by overeating. It's usually junk food. You won't need to nibble to stay awake if you get adequate sleep. In addition, lack of sleep causes rapid aging, which you do not want! Read: Do You Have Insomnia? How to Get a Good Night's Rest

3. Meditate. Meditation relaxes the mind and soothes the soul. Don't worry if you don't know how to meditate. In just 5 easy steps, you'll be able to meditate.
In the field, meditating

4. Exercise. Life is movement. Daily exercise has been demonstrated to have numerous health benefits, including increased longevity, decreased disease risk, increased bone density, and weight loss. Increase your physical activity. For short distances, walking is preferable to taking public transportation. Instead of taking the elevator, take the steps. Participate in an aerobics or dance class. Choose a sport that you enjoy.

5. Choose exercises that you love doing. If you appreciate a sport, you will naturally want to participate in it. Exercise isn't about toiling away and pushing yourself; it's about staying healthy while having fun. Adding variety to your routines will protect them from becoming monotonous. What are your favorite exercises, and how can you include them into your workout?

6. Exercise various parts of your body. Don't limit yourself to cardio (like jogging). Make sure your body gets a good workout. The simplest method is to participate in sports, which work out various muscle groups. Trekking, hiking, swimming, basketball, tennis, squash, badminton, yoga, and frisbee are all popular ways to get a good body workout.

7. Consume fruits. Vitamins and minerals abound in fruits. Do you know that oranges contain more vitamin C than vitamin C pills? Consume your vitamins and minerals as much as possible through your meals rather than pills. Every morning, I consume a variety of fruits, which energize me. Banana, Papaya, Kiwi, Strawberries, Blueberries, Blackberries, Raspberries, Watermelon, Rockmelon, Honeydew, Peach, Apple, Grapefruit, Pomelo, Mango, Orange, Watermelon, Rockmelon, Honeydew, Peach, Apple, Grapefruit, Pomelo, Mango, Orange

What is your current state of health? Do you eat a balanced diet? Do you work out on a regular basis? Do you make it a point to drink at least eight glasses of water each day? Do you get enough sleep on a daily basis? Do you maintain a healthy way of life?

Our bodies are temples, and we must care for them. Are you aware that more than 70% of Americans are obese or overweight? [1] That's crazy! Consider your body as a physical shell that will carry you through life. Your shell will quickly wear out if you constantly abuse it.

You don't want to bog yourself down with unneeded health issues because life is beautiful. Your important organs may be functioning normally now, but they may not be tomorrow. Take care of yourself and don't take your health for granted. Take good care of yourself.

Good health entails more than just eating well and exercising regularly; it also entails having a happy attitude, a positive self-image, and leading a healthy lifestyle.

WHAT IS MENTAL HEALTH?

Mental health is a state of well-being in which an individual realizes his or her own abilities, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively, and is able to make a contribution to his or her community.”

Mental health can affect daily living, relationships, and physical health.

RISK FACTORS FOR MENTAL HEALTH CONDITIONS

Everyone has some risk of developing a mental health disorder, no matter their age, s*x, income, or ethnicity.

Social and financial circumstances, biological factors, and lifestyle choices can all shape a person’s mental health.

A large proportion of people with a mental health disorder have more than one condition at a time.

BIOLOGICAL FACTORS
It is suggested that genetic family history can increase the likelihood of mental health conditions, as certain genes and gene variants put a person at higher risk.

However, many other factors contribute to the development of these disorders.

Having a gene with links to a mental health disorder, such as depression or schizophrenia, does not guarantee that a condition will develop. Likewise, people without related genes or a family history of mental illness can still have mental health issues.

COMMON MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS

- ANXIETY DISORDERS

According to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America, anxiety disorders are the most common type of mental illness.

People with these conditions have severe fear or anxiety, which relates to certain objects or situations. Most people with an anxiety disorder will try to avoid exposure to whatever triggers their anxiety.

Examples of anxiety disorders include:
Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)

- PANIC DISORDERS
People with a panic disorder experience regular panic attacks, which involve sudden, overwhelming terror or a sense of imminent disaster and death.

THERE ARE DIFFERENT TYPES OF PHOBIA :

SIMPLE PHOBIAS : These might involve a disproportionate fear of specific objects, scenarios, or animals. A fear of spiders is a common example.

SOCIAL PHOBIA : Its Sometimes known as social anxiety, this is a fear of being subject to the judgment of others. People with social phobia often restrict their exposure to social environments.

AGORAPHOBIA : This term refers to a fear of situations in which getting away may be difficult, such as being in an elevator or moving train. Many people misunderstand this phobia as a fear of being outside.

OBSESSIVE -COMPULSIVE DISORDER (OCD)
People with OCD have obsessions and compulsions. In other words, they experience constant, stressful thoughts and a powerful urge to perform repetitive acts, such as hand washing.

POST -TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER (PTSD)
PTSD can occur after a person experiences or witnesses a deeply stressful or traumatic event.
During this type of event, the person thinks that their life or other people’s lives are in danger. They may feel afraid or that they have no control over what is happening. These sensations of trauma and fear may then contribute to PTSD.

MOOD DISORDERS
People may also refer to mood disorders as affective disorders or depressive disorders.

People with these conditions have significant changes in mood, generally involving either mania, which is a period of high energy and elation, or depression. Examples of mood disorders include:

MAJOR DEPRESSION : An individual with major depression experiences a constant low mood and loses interest in activities and events that they previously enjoyed. They can feel prolonged periods of sadness or extreme sadness.

BIPOLAR DISORDER : A person with bipolar disorder experiences unusual changes in their mood, energy levels, levels of activity, and ability to continue with daily life. Periods of high mood are known as manic phases, while depressive phases bring on low mood.

SEASONAL AFFECTIVE DISORDER (SAD): Reduced daylight triggers during the fall, winter, and early spring months trigger this type of major depression. It is most common in countries far from the equator

SCHIZOPHRENIA DISORDERS

Mental health authorities are still trying to determine whether schizophrenia is a single disorder or a group of related illnesses. It is a highly complex condition.

Signs of schizophrenia typically develop between the ages of 16 and 30 years, according to the studies. The individual will have thoughts that appear fragmented, and they may also find it hard to process information.

Schizophrenia has negative and positive symptoms. Positive symptoms include delusions, thought disorders, and hallucinations. Negative symptoms include withdrawal, lack of motivation, and a flat or inappropriate mood

people should look out for the following as possible signs of a mental health disorder:

— withdrawing from friends, family, and colleagues
— avoiding activities that they would normally enjoy
— sleeping too much or too little
— eating too much or too little
— feeling hopeless
— having consistently low energy
— using mood-altering substances, including alcohol and ni****ne, more frequently
— displaying negative emotions
— being confused
— being unable to complete daily tasks, such as getting to work or cooking a meal
— having persistent thoughts or memories that reappear regularly
— thinking of causing physical harm to themselves or others
— hearing voices
— experiencing delusions

TREATMENTS CAN INCLUDE :

PSYCHOTHERAPY , OR TALKING THERAPIES
This type of treatment takes a psychological approach to treating mental illness. Cognitive behavioral therapy, exposure therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy are examples.

Psychiatrists, psychologists, psychotherapists, and some primary care physicians carry out this type of treatment.

It can help people understand the root of their mental illness and start to work on more healthful thought patterns that support everyday living and reduce the risk of isolation and self-harm.

MEDICATION
Some people take prescribed medications, such as antidepressants, antipsychotics, and anxiolytic drugs.

Although these cannot cure mental disorders, some medications can improve symptoms and help a person resume social interaction and a normal routine while they work on their mental health.

Some of these medications work by boosting the body’s absorption of feel-good chemicals, such as serotonin, from the brain. Other drugs either boost the overall levels of these chemicals or prevent their degradation or destruction.

SELF-HELP
A person coping with mental health difficulties will usually need to make changes to their lifestyle to facilitate wellness.

Such changes might include reducing alcohol intake, sleeping more, and eating a balanced, nutritious diet. People may need to take time away from work or resolve issues with personal relationships that may be causing damage to their mental health.

People with conditions such as an anxiety or depressive disorder may benefit from relaxation techniques, which include deep breathing, meditation, and mindfulness.

Having a support network, whether via self-help groups or close friends and family, can also be essential to recovery from mental illness

SU***DE PREVENTION
If you know someone at immediate risk of self-harm, su***de, or hurting another person:

Ask the tough question: “Are you considering su***de?”

Listen to the person without judgment.

Call the local emergency number to communicate with a trained crisis counselor.

Stay with the person until professional help arrives.

Try to remove any weapons, medications, or other potentially harmful objects.

If you or someone you know is having thoughts of su***de, a prevention hotline can help.
