themighty.comthemighty.com:

Navigating the emotional roller coaster of dating with a mental illness is not for the faint of heart. Begrudgingly, we muster up just enough courage to actually commit to going on a date, thanks to pep talks with our social supports.

My friends are the absolute best at reassuring me when I’m conflicted. “You’re the most amazing person I know. You’re going to find someone who loves you for who you are and would never try to change you.

Don’t let your ex ruin dating for you,” they reassure me on a phone call while I’m en route to the coffee shop. Walking into the coffee shop, I scan my surroundings for his face.

Why Nobody Realized This Illness Was a Physical Symptom of My Childhood Anxiety
It was a “normal” day for second-grade Taylor. She walked up the stairs to Mrs. Buteyn’s second-floor classroom and put her backpack and lunchbox away in her cubby. Then she ran to the bathroom and threw up for the next 20 minutes. She proceeded to go home afterward. Just a typical day in my life.

How My Chronic Illness Diagnosis Led to a Battle With Anxiety
The shame long associated with anxiety and panic attacks is felt partly because of the stigma against mental health. We’re attacked for being strong and opening up about it publicly and defiantly. And many people tell us to get out of our heads — that it’s all mental. While there may be some truth in this, it’s a very difficult thing to control.

Neuroplasticity
Neuroplasticity is the ability of the brain to change and grow continuously throughout a person’s life. This fairly recent discovery contradicts popular belief that the brain wears down over time, becoming fixed in its ways as we grow older.  Like any physical muscle, the brain gets stronger the more you use it. Which is all the proof we need to show retraining the brain is one hundred percent possible.

I’m Not ‘Selfish’ for Talking About How COVID-19 Is Affecting My Mental Health
At this point (late April), many regions are several weeks into stay-at-home orders, workplace and school closures and other efforts to stop the spread of the novel coronavirus, the new viral strain in the coronavirus family that affects the lungs and respiratory system. At a time when we have no vaccine or antiviral, limited testing capacity and many unknowns about the properties of this virus, these measures are our best weapon, and global data is showing they are working to slow the spread.

Coping with lockdown and bipolar disorder
Governments around the world have instituted social distancing and social isolation measures to curb the spread of the COVID-19 virus. This has led many people to experience changes in their normal daily routines of work, study and other lifestyle activities.  Spending more time at home can generate many challenges -  increased tension with housemates, loneliness, less distraction and maybe more rumination -  but one challenge is particularly relevant to people with bipolar disorders.   Here are some expert tips from the International Society for Bipolar Disorders Chronobiology Task Force.

Childhood Trauma, Addiction, and Eating Disorders
Have you ever thought about traumatic experiences as having their roots in the lives of your parents or grandparents?   Trauma can be defined as the loss of an essential part of ourselves - a sense of safety, of trust or security.  Trauma ultimately has the ability to define our behaviors, actions and our sense of self.  More and more research is also showing the destructive effects of trauma being passed down from generation to generation in our DNA and cultural nurturing.

To anyone on the outside, they may have very little idea of the severity of the condition and, if you’re the partner of someone with Bipolar Disorder, your family and friends may fail to have any real understanding of what you’re going through.

The Writing Cure
The Writing Cure is the title of a book written by scientists who study the healing powers of expressive writing – the kind of writing you would use a private journal for, where you describe your experiences and express your emotions. It’s a matter of taste, but of all mental health interventions, keeping a journal is one of my favorites. Not only because I personally love to write, but also because as simple as it may sound (sit down and write about your day), it combines several very powerful therapeutic elements. Let’s take a look at what those are.

A Happiness Hack for Feeling Better in the Moment
During periods of extreme life stress, such as the COVID19 pandemic, it would be nice to find a new source of happiness. The media covers all the very bad news from around the world, but even the daily reports include coverage of morale-boosting stories ranging from the heroism of health care workers to community efforts to spread cheer in forms such as “birthday parades.” You’ve probably already been able to stream live broadcasts from the arts, whether in the form of “Zoom concerts” or free releases of plays, musicals, and movies. These boosts can perk you up and give you a chance to escape from the day-to-day difficulties that you are currently experiencing. However, are there steps you can take on your own to prop up your mood?

How I’m managing my anxiety and depression during lockdown
It's hard to stay focused on anything that isn't your own anxiety at a time like this. Every attempt to disengage or take a break from the all-consuming panic and anxiety of not knowing feels like a leap, but one that drops me even further. Some days are manageable. I fill my day by watching a film I've always wanted to watch, or reading a new book, or even just listening to music. Those are okay days – it's safe to say a good day isn't really a possibility at the moment. Living with depression and anxiety will, on the best of days, leave me with pains in my chest as I worry about what will happen if I go outside. So now? It feels like a minefield.

Home Alone? Older Adults with ADHD are Staying Safe but Really Lonely
This pandemic does not discriminate. But it does disproportionately impact the health and wellbeing of older people, and those with pre-existing conditions like asthma, diabetes, and heart disease. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), eight out of 10 deaths reported in the U.S. have been in adults age 65 and older.1 (Those over 80 with chronic health conditions such as diabetes and heart or lung diseases are at greatest risk.)

Cosmetic Surgery and Psychological Disorders
The number of cosmetic procedures in the US has dramatically increased over the last decade with an estimated 18 million undergoing surgical or minimally invasive procedures in 2018 alone. Studies have identified two primary stimuli for seeking cosmetic surgery:  1) to raise self esteem and 2) to improve image satisfaction (i.e., self image).  While these factors are both considered by the plastic surgery community to be reasonable motives, it is important to recognize the potential effect that an underlying mental health disorder such as Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD), a mood disorder, or a personality disorder may have on the desire to seek treatment.
