RE: Psychiatry

I think it's very important that people make changes in their lives, like looking at underlying problems, maybe changing jobs/study options, if they are lucky enough to have them. But some people are so ill with Depression and mental health issues, they cannot even leave the house and their thinking is distorted. They suffere delusions and can be suicidal.
Healthy eating and exercise willnot help people like this and to suggest a healthy lifestyle will is dangerous in the extreme.
Scans have shown many scientific changes [to long for here] that take place or are prevalent in people who suffer badly with Depression and mental disorders. When Anxiety and Depression are debilitating and the person cannot work/functin they need Pharmacueticals to make their lives more bearable, of course pharmaceutical companies stand to make big bucks but they do so for Cancer, Diabetes etc., its not helping anyone by trying the 'Drug Free' option and alot of these people end up homeless on the streets abusing alcohol or Drugs.

RE: Psychiatry

Pedro I think most psychiatrists do now know how the mind works from a chemical standpoint. Its no good going for Therapy and things if the actual chemistry in the brain is screwed up. Through DNA or from lifes abuses/childhood trauma or whatever. Some people need to be on Medication to function, to be good parents, to be happy. If we have a low blood sugar and have Diabetes, we have no problem taking a tablet for that, so why have a problem taking medications for Depression and anxiety and psychosis ? I dont think going it alone is wise.

RE: Psychiatry

Hi Peach, Yep I think the Stigma is beginning to diminish abit. Everyone knows somebody who has a relative or friend who has committed suicide through not getting proper psychiatric help or proper Counselling and Medication. Depression distorts the mind and makes everything look black and hopeless. We need to end the stigma. Hope you are enjoying the sun in Wexford Glamorous lady heart wings

RE: Psychiatry

Hi Pedro, I think it is a neccessary Evil with a very chequered past. It is a pseudo science but it is only now, that science is beginning to understand the workings of the Brain and understand what causes Depression and Psycosis, delusions, mood swings etc., Medications are a help now and mean that most people with a mental health issue can lead a happy and relatively normal life. Thats my view in a Nutshell.
Necessary Evil ?uh oh That's because some psychiatrists are Egocentric and dont listen to their patients but put them into boxes. Also the past of psychiatry is frightening and there is still alot they need to learn about the Human condition and unhappiness. sad flower

RE: Costa del Ireland

jt3jo Yep Sunburn hurts, there are places it really hurts like across the collar bone, and on the shoulders.... Enjoy anyway.

RE: Costa del Ireland

Pedro yep we get short bouts of very intense sun coz of the ozone layer being gone we get the bad rays more. Still, enjoy it, just be careful and use a factor. Have fun and enjoy with your son.

RE: Costa del Ireland

Pedro Don't want to burst your Bubble but a Tan [which I have too] doesnot stop you from getting Skin Cancer which is the 2nd most common cancer in Ireland. Melanoma...if you have moles you have a big chance. So factor 50 and keep re applying it. Sorry if I sound like your mother hug

RE: Costa del Ireland

WittyandWise Your friend will regret it when she gets to my age and she is like a dried up prune. Everything in moderation. Why do we go mad to go brown anyway,? Most Irish people have very sensitive fair skin. Those spray tans look woeful. I see you have lovely weather up there in Donegal

RE: Costa del Ireland

Hi Pedro Be careful, our skins arenot used to it. Put Factor 50 on your little boy and keep it topped up. You are near the Sea so enjoy !!

RE: common ground..!!

Any thinly disguised nasty warnings regarding me will be reported, its a low shot when I have left the Blog. I donot wish to have anything to do with you... please refrain from any indirect 'warning' about me, you are a person I wish to have nothing to do with, and I am not in the minority in this either. Standing up to a serial bully doth not a nasty person make but it is funny how a bully turns Coward when confronted... about time.
Enjoy your time with the Charity. I am glad they havenot seen your post here in the past year.

RE: common ground..!!

Please dont play the victim little Ms. Puss in Boots, you are a stalwart antagonist with a huge problem with God, with Empathy and you are not welcome on many blogs and fail to see it. IF people wish to put up with your rudeness, that is their problem. You must have noticed last evening on a particular Blog that you were ignored by most if not all the people, get the message? We are all wrong and you are the victim, Pedro is making sense. I have no intention of having anything to do with you. I believe, and always will, that you are Toxic and many have reported you. So pull in your claws. You are invisible and I do not wish to have any dealings with you whatsoever, I feel sorry for you. Have a happy life. Please donot try and Threaten me, I have many many friends online, am tolerant and have your Blogs with things you have said. Lets leave it at that. Thank you.

RE: Do you believe afterlife afterlife?

Leo I wasnot pushing a Religious Agenda, as in I believe therefore it has to be... or I hate Atheists, this isnot what I was trying to say.
I say [in my humble opinion] that when I experience beauty in Nature, and alot of other issues too complex to deal with on a blog... I have to say, there has to be something after Death, because I am scared of death? no, we are born, we Die [such an obvious statement I know] but what is the point of it all? if you look at nature [as Ive already said] there is the birth, growth, death, rebirth via seedlings. I don't claim to be a Sage or great philosopher, but I am tuned into nature and the beauty that surrounds me, it seems all in vain if it just vanishes... goes away, Who designed this magnificent Rose ? who or what Creative force made the exquisite perfume? I hope I am making sense. There is nothing dogmatic about it or religious, it just seems pointless and doesnt make sense that there isnot something greater behind all this ? and that, given what we learn, experience in life, that we dont go on to become more highly evolved. Thats my tuppance worth. flirty

RE: Do you believe afterlife afterlife?

Mike68 You put that very well... that sums it up really, but there could be more , nobody can be sure there IS or there ISNT . hug

RE: Do you believe afterlife afterlife?

Leohijack cswelcome It was a very good subject/Blog Leo but 'The usual suspects' have to come along and taunt. Most of those who are Atheists with a vengeance have already stated this millions of times on other peoples blogs.. your Blog was interesting and needed alot of conversing. Could have been interesting.

RE: Do you believe in LIGHT?

We come from the Blue light of the Womb into the Light of the World and we go down the dark Valley/tunnel until we come to the light of Rebirth.

RE: Do you believe afterlife afterlife?

Hiya Unlaoised, good to see ya !

RE: Do you believe afterlife afterlife?

Nobody can prove that we live, then we die, period.
Nobody can really prove that there is life or lives beyond death..
Some claim to have 'near death' experiences but Scientists and Surgeons have explained these away [Neurologists in particular] when the body is closing down..... so ???waiter Here we go again....It's a Merrigoround and each to their own belief. boogie Sometimes, as somebody who paints, I look closely at say, a Poppy before I paint it, the sheer beauty, the magnificence, the sheer filmlike flower, the shape of the leaves.... flirty Somebody/Something had to have created this, the absolute perfection, same with a new born baby, or a Tigers eyes and skin.

RE: Do you believe afterlife afterlife?

Hi Leo, Most of my friends believe that we live and die and go back into nothingness. I appreciate that belief and can understand it too... but even nature has a rebirth with the seed sown, growth, plant dies and then reseeds again.... My own belief is similar to yours. I have met people who are extremely highly evolved, not necessarily educated or from Wealth. My personal belief is, we die, we re-evolve and keep learning before we meet God. buddies rose

RE: Older woman

Hiya Unlaoised... I think you should bottle it and sell it yay As a woman of a certain age, we women know a man with that certain experience 'does it' for us. I would suggest the young man comes back in 20years or so ....?hmmm bunny love ps What is it with Irish and worrying what the Neighbours think ?

RE: Questions on Irish travelers.Let your voice be heard !!

Hi, I was followed around a large Department Store recently, yes, the Secuurity guy was definitely following me... I began to feel myself blushing and went to Management. Turns out I am the 'spitting image' of a well dressed girl /woman who comes in regularly to shoplift.... Won't be going there again... found it a very embarrassing and humiliating experience and I made a complaint about his mode, he was very unprofessional and kept following close.. there was nowt for me to 'steal' except lipsticks and a few cheap earrings ..... Why did I write this ? Do't know... maybe not nice to be on that side of the coin. sad Not getting my business again !!angel2

RE: Animal Cruelty

They ususally like to try and get neutering free or at least a little cost towards the injections but since you caught those poor little puppies, a good welfare oganisation and phone beforehand to say what happened.
Best of luck and well done. What a horrible cruel thing to have done on these poor little innocent creatures

RE: The Orange Order marching season.

Stanley I accept that the loyalists have their Traditions. However, the hatred and sectarianism isnot going to die down overnight. I agree, they should stay within Unionist Areas [not a hard thing to do ] but they seem to delight in inciting hatred. It is like rubbing salt into a wound to have them March with words that are offensive to Republicans and non loyalists. There is something very chest out and stutting like about their demeanour too that I find offensive.. it's about 'in your face' rather than a genuine rememberance of Loyalty to the Crown. ireland
