    Comment
    You’re not alone if you occasionally crave certain foods or have an overwhelming urge to eat them.

  2. Is Modibodi underwear the best solution for women suffering from incontinence.

    Comment
    Review by Ceri Wheeldon Is Modibodi underwear the best solution for women suffering from incontinence? One in four women suffer from incontinence with that number increasing to 75% of women over the age of 65. Incontinence can impact quality of life and self confidence. The two key types of incontinence are stress incontinence and urge incontinence. Each has different treatment options but both need to be dealt with on a daily basis in much the same way. Incontinence pads are an obvious choice, and disposable incontinence underwear another. Both can prove costly . However there is now an additional option. Modibodi who created the original period panties have now launched a range of underwear for women suffering from incontinence. Made from bamboo and elastane, they...

  3. How inclusive mental health can help overcome the stigma associated with mental health issues

    Comment
    The post is developed in partnership with BetterHelp. Inclusivity and diversity have become increasingly popular buzzwords in our culture, and for good reason. Individuals and society as a whole benefit when other groups’ cultures, ethnicities, values, abilities, and religious views are respected. Mental and physical health and well-being are intertwined in the pursuit of optimal health. Diversity and Inclusion: What Are They? Equality for all, regardless of age, race, ethnicity, physical ability, sexual orientation, religion, and gender identity are the core principles of both diversity and inclusiveness. They’re not interchangeable at all. It is possible to think about inclusion as an activity or a “how.” Actions performed to actively include persons of varied backgrounds, races, ethnicities, abilities, and religious beliefs are known as “inclusion”. You can think of it as valuing and...

  5. What are the different types of psychologists available for someone with mental health issues?

    Comment
    This post was developed via a partnership with BetterHelp. Are there different kinds of psychologists and what do they specialize in? When people encounter the word “psychologist,” they often picture a person in an office taking notes as a client lies on a leather couch, about to pass out from fainting. Talk therapy is one of the many methods psychologists employ, but the field as a whole does many other things as well. Mental health professionals investigate how people interact with their surroundings and the tools they use. Are there solutions to reduce the effects of global warming that psychologists have discovered? Specialty areas and responsibilities associated with them are listed below.

  6. Can psychiatry help with mental health issues?

    Comment
    This article was developed via a partnership with BetterHelp. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who specialize in diagnosing and treating mental health conditions with medication.

  8. What are the signs of depression?

    Comment
      Presented by BetterHelp. There is a difference between being depressed and being unhappy. When we’ve had a harrowing week at work or are going through a divorce, the term “depression” is often used to explain how we feel.

The first step toward healing and recovery is identifying if the persistent, unshakeable negative sensations are a result of depression. If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it may be time to get help from a mental health expert. Consider visiting this page to learn how seeking help from an expert can help...
