  • Accidents? Or Saving us?

    Have you ever broken a bone?

    I have fractured my one wrist before from riding a scooter downhill.

    It was not a good experience after that because I was unable to do something I wanted in the next few months.

    What if maybe… When we fracture or break our bones is the universe of saying, we are going too far with our stunts before it gets worse.

    Or… It could be our bones are fragile.

    Anyways… It could be our unconscious selves saving us before we get hit or even worse lose a life. This does relate back to mental health as maybe our bodies react this way unconsciously. 

    It is a complex subject.

    Still a bigger lump

  • Mental health/illness cannot be cured

    I have been thinking… Maybe it is when people with mental illness cannot be cured themselves but it is part of their personality.

    Not everyone is bothered to complete a specific task. We can only encourage them to do a task. Maybe that is why there are support workers, to help them with what they are lacking.

    When they don’t shower or clean themselves, we can only encourage them. When they are on medications it does make it worse because they have side effects.

    Mostly all we can do is try to support them and slowly they will do their own self care. We also need to use our own input in a softer way as everyone is sensitive how we talk to them in a tone matter.

    Careful how we say things

  • Different environment, different emotions

    When I go to different places, it is a vibe I get. Sometimes it is more relaxing and sometimes it is not. Maybe when we are in congested areas we feel it is more stressful, while the opposite is more relaxed and chill.

    If we hang around a more stressful area, we tend to get more stressed or we somehow get this migraine in our head. While we see greens when we go to the environment our mind stays peaceful.

    I think our human mind finds nature like trees or grass peaceful and relaxing for us. If we are in the city where there is a lack of trees our minds tend to race.

    Even with how the environment is portrayed our emotions react to the environment around us.

    I think we humans are naturally adaptive whether it goes positively or negatively.

    The world that we live in that is natural is always best

  • Personality traits in mental health

    I think in mental health, or if you are out into the mental health system the people that act the way they are that are not in societal standards we get labelled as having something wrong.

    What if it is part of our personality? And how we are shaped by our environment. Sure the community needs to be safe but putting on people on medications does not help as a lot of people complain about them.

    I think when we ask for help then being put on these medications, it just makes us worse as an individual creating a non-safer community in our society and not innovating ourselves. We should learn to think for ourselves before taking these artificial stimuli.

    If professionals have taken these drugs we would listen to them but they are just learning from the books mostly without having actual experiences about them.

    We all have personalities that define ourselves and it cannot be solved with chemicals.

    But who knows? These drugs could be karma related drugs.

    We are Complex Beings

  • Me and my project

    How do you balance work and home life?

    Balancing is hard… It is what got me into the mental health ward by overworking. Then the pills that made me even worse.

    I am trying to rebuild what I have started but I think I am getting there.

    I have gone an extra route to mental health because I see issues that need to be solved. Maybe in time I will volunteer or work for a community based business.

    I think everything is community based but what I am trying to achieve is to make everyone feel good about themselves, even when they do  not look good on paper but mostly inside a person’s psyche.

    In this platform I would like to contribute my thoughts and experiences in one hoping it will help everyone in general to have something to talk about or give away their priceless knowledge.

    In terms of balancing… I find that humans are mostly made to work or do something or else we fall into anxiety or depression.

    Layers of my thoughts

  • Adapting

    What sacrifices have you made in life?

    While I had an almost comfortable living, I tried to make myself uncomfortable by taking cold showers and learning as much as I can in my early 20s because your 20s are still young. Cold showers have health benefits. The main thing about cold showers is learning to be comfortable by being uncomfortable is what trains you as well.

    There are about 40 more years to live freely at this stage, could increase as innovation makes place depending on how fast it takes place.

    So that is why I am buying and collecting anything copper as it is a technology innovation tool. The better mental health we have the more technical advances we make. Right now in this day and age, we are relying on technology year by year.

    I think what is best for mental health is using technology as a way to further your well being and also for convenience.

    I think what sacrifices you make most of the time is how you learn and adapt to the situation because everyone is different.

    Looking for ways to be outside of the box

  • Do what makes you feel good

    I don’t mean you should go ham on what you are feeling you want to do on food and material. Just a little bit that helps to support one another because there are plenty of other people around willing to give a little. We are just fulfilling our role or doing what makes us feel good.

    I mean too much of something is not good for your mental health and will need to keep changing to adapt to the market. Just a tweak.

    If you want to be minimalistic or spend, go for it just don’t give too much without looking after yourself.

    If you have too much, the direction of making the other person feel good is just priceless even if we are giving a little bit.

    One man’s treasure is another man’s treasure is what they say.

  • Better mental health better the innovation

    I think if we are both emotionally and physically healthy, we tend to think with more purpose with the way society is moving. So what I think is… Right now we are living in an age with the internet combined with no internet. But I would say we are moving with technology.

    When we have better mental health our minds have more space to think of other ideas to improve their well being with the use of technology. In other words “making us feel better”.

    Technology does have an effect on our mental health but when we are exposed to high dopamine sources we tend to feel depressed or we get anxious.

    We should start to use technology as a tool to educate or give our knowledge in whatever platform we are on or using it to gather your research of your interest instead of mindless scrolling.

  • Fear makes us physically sick

    I have been sick my whole life. Not the emotionally sick but the physically sick. I don’t feel like there are any symptoms, it is a bit complicated.

    I think if you have a lot of fear and anxiety and you are trying to suppress it, you blow your nose pretty often. It does look like you have something wrong to the other person but to yourself… There is nothing wrong.

    I feel like when you hold back your fears and anxiety you tend to show some symptoms of sickness but you are not sick at the same time…

    But I guess if you have a healthy mind you get a healthy body…

    Balance… So your whole body functions

  • Finding Peace…

    When I do something I love, I tend to find peace in what I do. Why? Because I am passionate about it.

    When you are passionate about doing something it gives you a sense of euphoria you cannot describe. It is like you are walking with purpose. This may include just writing blogs or making money solving a problem in the community or maybe just having fun in general.

    We all have a role to play in society. Don’t think that you are useless just because someone said so…

    If you have work that you are passionate about, you shouldn’t be useless but useful because you are inspiring someone else to be better than the day before. Of course we need a job to pay our bills so we can support ourselves.

    But if you want a different route then try to solve a problem then eventually you will make money from what you are passionate about.
