Adulting

How to be straight forward how to tell people no in any terms..why do I find it difficult to say it....

Growing Up

Being a girl, I am always made to feel like I am a liability to my family. Even though I have worked very hard, my parents fail to me beyond the fact that I am a female. It’s almost as if my worth will be defined by the kind of man I get married to. It sucks to be a girl sometimes. This society is really messed up. 

Anxiety

Ummm I dont know exactly how to start with… 
Its been more than 2 years after getting rejected 4 times from the same girl…..
You heard that right…. Sounds like a loser  , I would have also thought so while reading someone else’s story…
To be honest I got very much depressed I love her a lot.. and then 2 years back it was … like talking and meeting like friends … Yes , I tried to chat with her a lot times , like obviously and we did as well but after 2 or 3 days I again got depressed about the thought that we can never be the same…. 
I tried to move on with everything with a hope that everything will get sorted but it has been 2 years , I think of her every time , DAYDREAMING about her…. She’s with me all the time in my heart but she’s not. I literally every night find myself in my bed thinking of all the things that I could have done to make her mine. 
And you know what is the thing that makes me feel horrible , it is the fact that she thinks that I have moved on. She doesn’t know that still everyday I cry for her . 
It makes me feel like a LOSER who is not able to get over a girl in a world which is full of fake relationships. She has a boyfriend now as well.
Please give me some advice , I don’t want some saint talkings and stuff like that. I have heard all of it. PLEASE

Depression

I only have 2 friends in my life whom I can share anything anytime,
Unfortunately, 1 of them is getting married and other has started ghosting me,

I prayed for their happiness!
But it hurts to getting alone again

Friends

Hi Everyone, I hope you all are doing great.
Bhot time pehle maine ek poem likhi thi jo mai yaha  aaj aap logo ke saath share karna chahti hu.



Darr
Dar! Dar se dar mat
Uska jam kar saamna kar
Aur haara de use aur dikha de use ki tu darpoke aur kamzoor nahi bahadur hai tu. Dar se tu aankhe mat chura, usse aankhe mila aur use dur bhaga. Dar se dar mat tu khud pr vishvas rakh aur haste haste uska saamna kar phir dekh tu ki kaise vo tujhse dur bhagega aur phir kabhi laut kar nahi aayega.
Agar tu kabhi haar bhi jaaye toh niraash mat ho tu phirse koshish kar aur tab tak kar jab tak tujhe vo haasil na ho jaye. Aur jab tak tu jeet na jaye. 
Tu dar mat kyuki agar tu dar gayi toh smjh tu mar gayi. Tu dar ka dat kar saamna kar aur use harade aur humesha ke liye dur bhaga de.
-Mansi😊

Hope

I don't know why I am feeling so anxious n nervous about my performance which is just tomorrow like I'm feeling nervous to go on stage n to face so many people after such a long and even things aren't working good like I'm suffering from a sore throat i don't know how things gonna be tomorrow n not even this lyrics seem to be unfamiliar and my partner n my coordination is not go good n we didn't even practice specially on stage i got no clue how to hold the mic n to face such a crowd and my anxiety is making things worst for me. I know i can't mess anything tomorrow n be a talk of of town for the bad things cause earlier my parents mocked me to quit singing they were not so supported they said u didn't sing well n u can't do anything good with this n somehow even build up a insecurity n i avoided to sing infront of others for a very long time n now i finally away from my parents n their negative remarks n i somehow got an opportunity to perform but now nothing is going good i hope things go well but still I'm scared i don't want to end up regretting everything at last.

Mental Health

What Is Dementia?

Dementia is a general term for loss of memory, language, problem-solving and other thinking abilities that are severe enough to interfere with daily life. Alzheimer's is the most common of this disease. 
Dementia is not a single disease; it’s an overall term — like heart disease — that covers a wide range of specific medical conditions, including Alzheimer’s disease. Disorders grouped under the general term “dementia” are caused by abnormal brain changes. These changes trigger a decline in thinking skills, also known as cognitive abilities, severe enough to impair daily life and independent function. They also affect behavior, feelings and relationships.

Alzheimer's disease accounts for 60-80% of cases. Vascular dementia, which occurs because of microscopic bleeding and blood vessel blockage in the brain, is the second most common cause of dementia. Those who experience the brain changes of multiple types of dementia simultaneously have mixed dementia. There are many other conditions that can cause symptoms of dementia, including some that are reversible, such as thyroid problems and vitamin deficiencies.

Dementia is often incorrectly referred to as "senility" or "senile dementia," which reflects the formerly widespread but incorrect belief that serious mental decline is a normal part of aging.

Symptoms of dementia:

Memory loss and other symptoms of dementia:

Signs of dementia can vary greatly. Examples include:

•Problems with short-term memory.

•Keeping track of a purse or wallet.

•Paying bills.

•Planning and preparing meals.

•Remembering appointments.

•Traveling out of the neighborhood.

Many conditions are progressive, which means that the signs of dementia start out slowly and gradually get worse. If you or someone you know is experiencing memory difficulties or other changes in thinking skills, don't ignore them. See a doctor soon to determine the cause. Professional evaluation may detect a treatable condition. And even if symptoms suggest dementia, early diagnosis allows a person to get the maximum benefit from available treatments .

Causes of dementia:

Dementia is caused by damage to brain cells. This damage interferes with the ability of brain cells to communicate with each other. When brain cells cannot communicate normally, thinking, behavior and feelings can be affected.
The brain has many distinct regions, each of which is responsible for different functions (for example, memory, judgment and movement). When cells in a particular region are damaged, that region cannot carry out its functions normally.
Different types of dementia are associated with particular types of brain cell damage in particular regions of the brain. For example, in Alzheimer's disease, high levels of certain proteins inside and outside brain cells make it hard for brain cells to stay healthy and to communicate with each other. The brain region called the hippocampus is the center of learning and memory in the brain, and the brain cells in this region are often the first to be damaged. That's why memory loss is often one of the earliest symptoms of Alzheimer's.
While most changes in the brain that cause dementia are permanent and worsen over time, thinking and memory problems caused by the following conditions may improve when the condition is treated or addressed:
•Depression.

•Medication side effects.

•Excess use of alcohol.

•Thyroid problems.

•Vitamin deficiencies.

Diagnosis of dementia:

There is no one test to determine if someone has dementia. Doctors diagnose Alzheimer's and other types of dementia based on a careful medical history, a physical examination, laboratory tests, and the characteristic changes in thinking, day-to-day function and behavior associated with each type. Doctors can determine that a person has dementia with a high level of certainty. But it's harder to determine the exact type of dementia because the symptoms and brain changes of different dementias can overlap. In some cases, a doctor may diagnose "dementia" and not specify a type. If this occurs it may be necessary to see a specialist such as a neurologist or gero-psychologist. 
Palak Gupta: Some risk factors for dementia, such as age and genetics, cannot be changed. But researchers continue to explore the impact of other risk factors on brain health and prevention of dementia
 Ultimately, the path to effective new treatments for dementia is through increased research funding and increased participation in clinical studies. Right now, volunteers are urgently needed to participate in clinical studies and trials about Alzheimer's and other dementias.
