Signs Of Clinical Depression
Symptoms of clinical depression vary from amongst people and ranges from mood swings to memory loss. Depression often manifests itself with a wide array of experiences and becomes difficult to diagnose, if left untreated. Depression, like other illnesses come in different forms. Three of the most common types of depressive disorders are major clinical depression, dysthymia, and bipolar (or manic) depression. Within each type, there are variations in the number, severity and persistence of symptoms.
Major clinical depression can be classified by a number of symptoms including mood swings that interfere with the ability to work, sleep and enjoy once pleasurable activities. Recognizing and understanding the symptoms, however, is the most important step in successful treatment of depression. These symptoms include persistent mood swings, anxiety, irritability and emotional mood swings.
Clinical depression also causes fatigue or unexplained loss of energy, loss...

"Joy, No Matter What" - Make 3 Simple Choices to Access Your Inner Joy by Carolyn Hobbs
"Over the years, I saw that our own beliefs, fears, and habitual reactions to life limit our joy much more than any spouse, boss, or devastating life experience.
I started teaching my clients to carry two questions with them in their daily lives:
?Am I feeling joy now?
If not, how am I holding my joy away?'
I walked into each therapy session and workshop with the goal of helping people reconnect with the essential joy in their core.
Over time, my three-step approach evolved:
1) say yes to what is; 2) witness your thoughts, feelings, and reactions; and 3) respond differently, with kindness and compassion.
By seeing our old habits clearly and by taking full responsibility for how we respond, we become able to hold all of life's gifts in joy."???????????????~ Carolyn Hobbs"Joy, No Matter What" (Conari Press, March 2005) shows that joy is not something "out there," only available to a select few born with emotional silver spoons...

I Love you, I Hate You But Don?t Go: Understanding Borderline Personality Disorder
It amazes me that 6-10 million Americans have been diagnosed with this isolating disorder. What's amazing about this is that not much is written about BPD much less talked about. Almost like there is a stigma attached to the very name. The name Borderline Personality Disorder originated in 1938 by Adolph Stern. He was describing a group of patients that didn't quite fit an existing diagnosis; patients that were classified as past the neurotic stage but not quite psychotic.
However these days this disorder is seen in a different way but the name BPD has stuck.BPD is relatively common, affecting 10-14% of the general population. Women commonly suffer from depression more often than men and the frequency of BPD in women is two to three times greater than men. Nearly 20% of psychiatric hospitalizations stem from BPD.While people that suffer with depression or bipolar disorder typically endure the same mood for several weeks at a time, a person with BPD can experience depression and...

Balance- what does it really mean?
Balance- what a popular topic these days! Finding a work-life balance, being balanced in body, mind and soul, eating a balanced meal, balancing work, play and learning. But what does it really mean? When I ask my clients what balance means to them, most have no idea initially, and find it a good exercise to reflect on. For some it means spending more time with family and/or fun and less time on work, for others it means starting a physical activity. For some it means doing some emotional healing, for others starting a spiritual path. The truth is, we are all individuals, and we each have our unique definition of what balance is.
If we take the time to ask ourselves what a balanced life looks like, we'll find the answer. Or we'll at least be shown what is not in balance so we can start there! I lived a large part of my life out of balance. As a mother, daughter, wife, many times I let my needs go to take care of others. Later when the boys left home I let my job consume my life,...

the truth about omega 3
Since Dr Basant Puri, a consultant psychiatrist and senior lecturer at London's Imperial College MRI unit, released his findings on Omega 3 and its effect on brain function and depression, many studies have been performed regarding the beneficial effects of this fatty acid. Studies over the past two years have consistently confirmed that Omega 3, a substance lacking in today's "diet" is a key component in the brain's development and proper functioning.The notion that Omega 3 was linked to depression and other mental illnesses came about based on studies conducted at Harvard University in 1999 on people with bipolar and a 1996 study by the Journal of the American Medical Association studying the prevalence of depression across ten countries. The Harvard study found that fish oil was an effective treatment for bipolar. The study conducted by the Journal of the American Medical Association was expanded upon in 1998 when it was discovered that depression was lower in countries that consumed...
