Should Hypnosis Ever Be Used To Treat Depression?

cures No Comments »

I knew nothing about hypnosis when a psychiatrist – an unquestioned authority at this time in my career – told me: “Hypnosis should never be used with a depressed person!”, and it never occurred to me that he might be wrong.

In this video I’ll explain why he was wrong in his assertion on using hypnosis for treating depression, and I’ll describe a few common features that hypnosis and depression share.

A few of my Instagram followers suggested I make a video talking about how I got started in hypnosis and what that initial process of learning hypnosis as a beginner was like for me. This was my first ever attempt at filming/editing a vlog so please go easy on me critics. 🙃

This ended up being WAY longer than I planned so if you watched the whole thing then you da real MVP. If not then you probably didn’t take the time to read this description either so who am I kidding lol but either way I will be posting more street hypnosis videos soon so be on the lookout for those!

Is thyroid disease the cause for infertility and menstrual problems? - Dr. Ambika V

Dr. Ambika V| Appointment Booking No.08088970970 |Consultant Obstretician & Gynecologist Jayashree Multi-Speciality Hospital Vishwapriya Nagar, Bangalore
Yes they can be. On an overall basis the thyroid problems have become more due to lifestyle changes food habits, stress , all these things are changed and the incidence has also increased. What we saw about 20 years ago the hypothyroidism or the hyperthyroidism has become more. What is hypothyroidism? The thyroid hormone maintains the BMR or the basal metabolic rate. So basal metabolic rate changes when the thyroid hormones are less, that is hypothyroidism. With Hyperthyroidism this increases. So both of these can cause problems and it affects the menstruation and definitely the fertility also because all these hormones are interrelated. Thyroid hormones, pituitary hormones , ovarian hormones are interrelated and with hypo and Hyperthyroidism, the ovulation or the release of the eggs are affected and in turn it can affect the hormones and the fertility. So as such on an overall basis even without the symptoms also these diseases can present. So when you go to a doctor the doctor will decide if there are some thyroid tests for you or not. The symptoms need not be present because of subtle hypo or Hyperthyroidism. TSH is thyroid stimulating hormones, secreted from the pituitary glands, which increases in Hypothyroidism and decreases in Hyperthyroidism because this is a negative feedback mechanism when you go to the doctor they tests for this. When you have period issues and go to a doctor and correct it if required. And make sure that the TSH is normal whenever you are conceiving because it is very important for the well being of the growing baby.

Concussion and Dizziness: How Are They Related

injuries No Comments »

Dizziness is a symptom often associated with concussion, but also overlooked or not taken seriously. Concussions can result in permanent damage to the delicate organs of the inner ear, causing dizziness, vertigo, hearing loss, and problems with memory and learning. Learn how the vestibular system is affected during a concussion.

Concussion is a MILD traumatic brain injury that affects normal brain functions. It occurs as a result of a forceful blow, either DIRECT or INdirect to the head. An example of an INdirect blow is a whiplash-type injury that causes the brain to SHAKE quickly back and forth inside the skull. In a direct blow, injury may develop on the side of contact with the force, or on the OPPOSITE side of the head. Concussion may be caused by falls, contact sports, motor vehicle accidents, or physical abuse. Brain injury can occur with translational, rotational or angular movements of the head. Rotational and/or angular forces cause the brain to TWIST against the BRAINSTEM – the thin stalk that connects the brain to the spinal cord, and damage the structures within. Because the brainstem controls many VITAL bodily functions, including consciousness, rotational and angular injuries usually result in LOSS of consciousness and are often more serious.
Concussion is a FUNCTIONAL injury, rather than structural. A concussed brain usually looks NORMAL on a brain-imaging test. The damage occurs at a MICROSCOPIC level and generally affects a LARGE area of the brain. The mechanical impact exerted by the blow sends shock waves that diffuse through the brain tissues, STRETCHING and possibly SHEARING membranes of neurons, especially along the long axons that are responsible for transmitting signals from one neuron to another. The events that take place during and after concussion are complex and not fully understood, but likely to involve IONIC IMbalances and ENERGY CRISIS due to REDUCED blood flow. Ionic disturbances, such as ABnormal potassium EFflux and calcium INflux, INTERFERE with action potential dynamics, DISRUPTING normal communication between neurons. Reduced blood supply IMPAIRS cellular functions and makes the brain MORE vulnerable to further damage.
Children and teens are at GREATER risks for brain injury because their brain is STILL DEVELOPING and therefore more susceptible to insults. Axons in young brains are not FULLY myelinated, EASIER to get damaged and take LONGER to recover. Brain development may also STOP for some time after sustaining a concussion.
Signs and symptoms of concussion can be SUBTLE and may NOT appear immediately. It is common for the first signs to show up after 20 minutes to hours from the time of impact. COMMON symptoms include headache, drowsiness, dizziness, sensitivity to light, loss of memory, difficulty concentrating and feeling slowed down. Patients should be observed for at least 48h for worsening signs such as loss of consciousness, INcreasing headache, REPEATED vomiting, slurred speech, confusion, unusual behaviors, seizures, and limb weakness or numbness. Any of these would require emergency care.
Concussion usually revolves on its own, with PROPER physical and cognitive REST. The majority of people fully recover after a couple of weeks but some may take longer. During recovery the brain is MUCH more vulnerable to further insults and any activities that may potentially cause another impact SHOULD be avoided. A REPEATED injury while the brain is recovering may exacerbate symptoms, result in PERMANENT brain damage, and can be fatal.
