My learning about depression/mental/health

Intro: Today, for health, I will be explaining to you about depression, and how it works and talk about its causes. I choose this topic because I want to learn more about depression and explain to you what I have learned about depression.

Depression:
Depression can begin at any age, from childhood, through to old age. Most often it starts in the mid 20s, and it is more usual in the 25 to 45 year age group. People with depression, often have problems like, Family issues, trouble with school, personality disorders, and may engage in careful self-harm.

How you know your feeling depressed
How you know if you're feeling depressed, is if you are feeling sad, and being over stressed over something. Kids mainly feel stressed when getting trouble from school, which could be bullying. Bullying is people who often try to put you down and be mean to you repeatedly. Also, some people get bullied online, which in fact is called cyber bullying. Cyber bullying is the exact same as normal bullying in person, but all the action is online.

What causes depression?
Depression is linked to changes in how the brain works. Many things can be considered as factors that make you vulnerable to depression……

These include:

1. Stressful times like, the break up of an relationship, or financial trouble.
2. A family History of depression.
3. Physical illness, such as a stroke or heart attack.
4. Stressful things that happened in the past can lead you into depression later in life.
5. Certain medication can cause depression in some people .
6. Having no friends or family around or near you.

How to manage stress:

In my opinion, how to manage stress is by using one of the areas of your Haora. One of them could be, your mental and emotional wellbeing. So you could try to control your emotions, by ignoring the people, and not letting them make you feel down. Also you can always talk to someone that you trust the most, and explain your emotions to them. 

Secondly you can build on your physical wellbeing by going outside and having fun, forgetting about those who run in your head often. Overall, don’t let them ruin the hard work you have done in your life, because people who make you depressed, don’t often see what goes on in your life time, so they will think it is ok to bully you. Also how to manage stress, is that you need to try to control your emotions with others. (For an example) If you are sensitive with your emotions, like if someone calls you one name as a joke, then you feel really upset, try to control yourself from being upset, cause that person obviously wants to make you upset, but don’t let people do that to you, because, it will break one wall of of your Haora, which will be Mental and Emotional wellbeing. 

Another way to stop this from happening to you, is get more physical and go to church, and pray to God that he may change your life, or change other peoples life, because thoughts like, wanting to commit suicide, is not what God wants, but one day, God will help you and heal you from all the bad things, to the good things, so try to keep in  touch with the Lord and Saviour. Also be kind to others, treat them the way you would like to be treated. If someone bullies you for being smart, help them out, also explain to them how you feel about them. Keep yourself in mind and forget about others. Overall, remember this, “Your mind, is the one that controls your feelings and what you want to do,” Because in some peoples mind, they think of comitting suicide which no one wants you to do or thimk about.

Resiliency/health

I have chosen Resiliency for my topic, to explain to you about Resiliency.

What is Resiliency?
Resiliency, is someone or something that bounces back into shape, or recovers real quick. An example of resilient, is something, or someone being stretched and returning back to its own normal size. Another example could be, a person being sick, and rapidly becoming healthy.

How you know your showing, resiliency, is for an example, if you are likely to feel stressed out, that will mean you are not controlling your life balance, which can cause more stress to you, but resiliency, is all about bouncing back to the right side of your health. So when your life balance is not good, you could start to control your life balance, which will lead up to fixing your life balance, then your life balance will begin once again to be a straight line which is a good sign of your life balance. This is how you know you've shown and represented resilience by beginning with a good life, then going through bad things, then bouncing straight back to good things.

Which one of these Celebrities demonstrate Resilience r

Research:“Neve give up.” It’s probably one of the most cliché phrases you’ll hear as you’re building your career. But there’s a reason these sayings are clichés you never know when success really does lie around the next corner.

Stress/Health

L.O I would like to know how stress affects our Mental health wellbeing, and how to manage it.

1. I have chosen stress for my topic

What is stress?

Stress is what you feel when you are very worried or uncomfortable about an issue that has happened. The more worried you get, the more down your body feels. Stress can also change your emotions, as in feeling, Angry, upset, frustrated, scared, and afraid, which can give you stomach aches and headaches.

When you're stressed, you may not feel like sleeping or eating, or you may sleep and eat too much. Also if stress is affecting you, you could be having trouble paying attention in school/class. Also, stress can affect your memories, so you might not remember anything that happened in the past.

What causes stress?

A huge amount of things can cause stress to a kid's life, and there can be two sides of stress. One side is the good stress, and the opposite side is bad stress. Good/Normal stress can be when you are in a competition and you are trying too hard and start to sweat and get tired, which will cause a Normal stress, and those are the kinds of stress that can help get things done.

But bad stress happens if you keep stressing over time. Maybe; you could be having big issues with your family, and your other family members are sick, and the others are fighting and arguing, or if you are going through a lot of bad issues every time, everyday, that makes you feel a bit sad, angry and frustrated.Usually, people start to feel sick, and have had enough of the stress pain and start to think, they are no one, they think they don’t exist anymore, and finally, they begin to think they don’t want live anymore, so they also begin to commit suicide, which means, they begin to not want to live anymore, and kill themselves. These kinds of bad stresses and issues are usually used on people who get bullied, people who get cyber bullied, and people who have too many things to do in life, which then they give up and give up with life.

If you think you are going through stress, the best way to sort it out, by talking with an adult your know and close to, but a better way to fix this horrible problem is just by not thinking about it, or if your getting bullied, ignore it and be the better person you are by stepping away from it, because if you cause violence, you could get into ig trouble, which can cause more stress for you.

How do you manage stress?

The best way to keep stress away is to have a balanced life. That means making good decisions about how to spend your time. If you're only dealing with school stuff and have no time to play, you can get stressed. Make sure you keep yourself in mind: Sleep, exercise, leisure/something fun to do, and food. MAKE THE RIGHT DECISIONS!!
