Mental Health: What You Say Matters
Usually, it’s said: “Pay attention to what people do, not to what they say”. Well, I am telling you, what people say, really matters. It can hurt others so much that they could wish to die, they could get very angry or even enraged and cause harm to others. Treating each other with kindness it seems forgotten in these times, or maybe it’s been like this always, for millennia; human condition? If someone is causing you to be angry and sad, getting away from that person might be the best solution, the healthier solution to take.
If someone is capable of hurting your kindest feelings and thoughts, that someone might not be the best person to be in your life. With time you will realize that you made the right decision by getting away from a harmful and maybe narcissistic persona.

Suicide Can Be Preventable Use Strong Love Education Compassion
SUICIDE ATTEMPTS AND SUICIDE DEATH
Suicide can be preventable from infancy. Having caring parents and relatives who really love their children and look out for them, creating an optimal and loving environment for their healthy and happy growth.
But, even when we have had been raised in loving homes by caring parents, in a healthy social and mental environment bad things happen to good people as we all know: a failed marriage, the death of a loved one, the loss of work or income, a traumatic accident; things that could trigger an acute depression and if not treated immediately it could develop into a severe case of suicidal depression.
When a friend, a child, a patient, anybody tells us that “I don’t want to live anymore”, or that “I am going to kill myself tonight or tomorrow”, we have the responsibility as human beings to believe him/her and help in any way possible and as soon as possible.
However, this almost seems like a difficult dream in the world we live in. But it is not impossible, we have to have hope, always, and have love, for ourselves, our children, our family, and friends.

Learn How to Read Your Body Signals to Avoid Anxiety and Be Happier
LEARN HOW TO READ BODY SIGNAL TO AVOID ANXIETY
Take a deep breath. …
Get active. …
Sleep well. …
Challenge an anxious thought. …
Say an encouraging statement. …
Stay connected to others. …
Avoid caffeine. …
Avoid mind-altering substances.
The ability to perceive the signals of your body is known as interoceptive accuracy (IAc). There are, different psychosomatic cues that you pick up within yourself during states of anxiety. But above all, a beating heart is the hardest one to ignore.
It’s for this reason that heartbeat perception, as brain scientists call it, is a direct proxy for measuring people’s IAc and reported anxiety and stress levels.
IAc and a beating heart
Having the ability to accurately detect your own heartbeat is critical for reappraising your anxiety on a moment to moment basis. We know that anxiety is as much in the body as it is in the mind, and that a (mis)perception of a fast heart rate can easily contribute to the catastrophization of a panicked state.
It’s why some of the most effective anxiety-related therapies, like progressive muscle relaxation and deep breathing, tend to focus on muting a physiological response followed by a cognitive reappraisal technique.
What this says is that your ability to detect and therefore modulate your bodily responses during an anxious state is not fixed. These signals are amenable to change. You can learn to more accurately perceive your beating heart in a high-stress environment. You can apply reappraisal techniques in mitigating your anxiety.
The findings of this study have the potential to inform research on stress and anxiety management. For example, having a general idea of how much your IAc is dependent on biological predisposition could provide leeway to pharmaceutical interventions to help combat debilitating responses to stressful situations.
For now there’s therapeutic power in knowing you can improve your IAc and work towards minimizing your anxiety.
