A dose for your mind

 A DOSE FOR YOUR MIND

According to a study, about 800,000 people die by suicide worldwide every year. 139,123 Indians committed suicide in 2019 and the national suicide rate was 10.4 (calculated per lakh of population). WHO has declared sucide as being a serious health issue in India. The question here is why? How can a person end there own life? Do things get so tough that death seems the only solution? Or do we just get engaged in our work lives so much that ignore all the little happiness life gives us daily. 



You yourself might have come across a time wherein you felt lost in life, thank God that you had the courage and will to declutter that mess and continue on your path. Our conditioning from the very start is such that it might feel obvious to get exhausted at some point in life, right from the beginning we try to stand on societies expectations, be it in academics, lifestyle, fashion, carrier,family. We work hard to reach the mark set by the society, or to overcome that mark and in that process we lose ourselves. We lose behind our friends, families and even our mental well being. No doubt that position or that mark you are trying to reach will give you enormous success, but when you reach their and look behind you will realise you missed n number of moments just to celebrate the success. 



The main mantra of life should be ‘Live a day at once’, take each day as a new opportunity and make it better than yesterday, take a step towards happiness, and another towards your goal. Balance is what is needed, instead of overpowering a person in your personal or workspace just try to walk with them, learn from the one's wiser and stronger than you and support the one's weaker to you. This will ensure that when you reach the heights of success these people will be their celebrating for you. 


Everyday you wake up, you make sure you look good physically, every morning just take a few minutes to ensure that you feel good mentally too. Afterall only a positive mind can attract positive ideas and create a positive space. Just take a few minutes before you start your day to look at everything you have achieved and every life you have created an impact on, and assure yourself that you are with way more than this. Close your eyes and tell yourself that everything you do today will only bring happiness to and those around you. Know your worth and start the day at a good note. 



Also at the same time don't assume that everyone is strong enough be available to anyone who needs you, most of the times all you need to do is just sit and listen, to share someone's emotional burden. 


Stop wherever you feel like, rest for a while and start again. Remember, there is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn't.

 HYPERTENSION (CAUSES, SYMPTOMS, DIAGNOSIS, AND TREATMENTS) Hypertension or high blood pressure is a serious health condition and is a major cause of premature deaths worldwide. It affects a population of almost 1 billion and is a more common problem in low and middle-income countries.   According to the WHO, h ypertension is diagnosed if, when it is measured on two different days, the systolic blood pressure readings on both days is ≥140 mmHg and/or the diastolic blood pressure readings on both days is ≥90 mmHg. Hypertension can either be essential (primary) or secondary.  Primary hypertension is not caused by any underlying medical condition, instead, it is a result of improper lifestyle including obesity, excessive salt intake in the diet, or maybe due to family history.  On the other hand, secondary hypertension is caused by an underlying medical condition, for example, kidney disease, which causes the rise of blood pressure. For instance, a  low renal blood flow stimulates the kid

The most common is aspiration from the oropharynx. Many pathogens are inhaled as contaminated droplets. Rarely, pneumonia occurs via hematogenous spread (e.g., from tricuspid endocarditis) or by contiguous extension from an infected pleural or mediastinal space. RISK FACTORS: Weak imm
