Is Your Pride Preventing Your Happiness?

Some people choose to “tough things out” when they’re feeling down, weary, or depressed rather than seek medical attention. While some people may look at this trait as admirable, Dr. Clifford Lazarus sees it simply as unnecessary and prolonged suffering, as well as missed opportunities to feel better sooner and possibly learn something about themselves…

Electrical Patch Found to Reduce Depression

Dr. Christopher DeGiorgio, a professor of neurology from the University of California, recently presented an external trigeminal nerve stimulation patch that he invented to the Royal Society of Medicine in London. The patch stimulates nerves in the forehead that link deep within the brain to areas that are associated with mood. The studies have shown…

Diagnosing Substance Abuse and Dependence in Schizophrenia

It has been shown that people with mental disorders are more likely to also have a substance abuse disorder, and the more severe the mental disorder, the more likely it is to have an accompanying substance abuse disorder. The more common severe mental illnesses with the highest levels of substance abuse attachment are depression, bipolar…

What Real Love Looks Like

It isn’t uncommon for people to create an image of what true love looks like throughout their lives. It often involves imagining a soul mate who is the perfect partner that completes them. Unfortunately, these ideas can lead to partners being chosen for the wrong reasons and bonds of love being imagined where they may…

Study Discovers Internal Trigger for Panic Attack in the Previously Fearless

Over the past few years, researchers have been studying a woman who had suffered damage to the part of her brain known as the amygdala, which is responsible for processing fear.

How to be Assertive While Keeping a Kind Heart

Many people struggle between the extremes of being too assertive and being a doormat for other people.

Your Facebook Profile Could Determine Mental Illness

A new study from the University of Missouri reports that the regularity and content of Facebook posts could be an insight into your psychological state and possible mental health issues. The researchers studied more than 200 college students, measuring their levels of extroversion and support of strange beliefs, and then asked them to print out…

Coping with Chronic Stress

Experiencing stress is a natural part of the human condition. Stress is something that is programmed into us like an internal alarm to let us know of potentially harmful situations so they can be noted and addressed. Dr. Beth NeSmith calls it the body’s “arousal response to a perceived threat.” The response involves releasing adrenaline…

Addiction and Depression

Depression is one of the most, if not the most, common co-occurring disorders most addicts have. Addicts often feel demoralized and helpless about their health and about their lives, and altered brain chemistry can easily escalate those feeling into depression. Richard Taite, the CEO and founder of the Cliffside Malibu Treatment Center, offers some suggestions…

Using Mindfulness to Treat Anxiety Disorders

A person with anxiety disorder will perceive threats to an exaggerated degree, have repetitious negative thoughts, and an increased sense of arousal and fear. This causes high blood pressure, a rapidly beating heart, and even digestive problems in those who are affected. Whether they are suffering from General Anxiety Disorder (GAD) or Social Anxiety Disorder…
