Emotional Reactions to Terrorism June 22, 2016 Most of us have no trouble recognizing what emotion we feel unless for some reason we don’t think that we should be feeling that emotion.

But the tragic events in Paris, San Bernardino and now Orlando are likely to have had a complex emotional impact, which might be confusing if not untangled.

Let me try to do so. We are likely to be afraid that this slaughter will happen again, even worse, afraid that we might be the victims the next time around.

To COVID-19 Frontline Workers, From a Therapist Who Is Ready to Support You
Last week, a top ER doctor at a Manhattan hospital, Dr. Lorna M. Breen, died by suicide. Dr. Breen had been on the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic and treated many patients at the Manhattan hospital. Dr. Breen had also contracted and recovered from the virus herself. Dr. Breen’s suicide was an unfortunate wake-up call, particularly for mental health professionals. It begs the question — what are we doing, and what do we plan to do, to take care of the mental health of our frontline and essential workers?

If Rush Could Wave Their Magic Wand
The past couple of months have been incredibly trying times for everyone. They've been filled with darkness, fear, confusion, panic, illness, uncertainty and emotional pain. As a philosopher, I've traveled into the deep recesses of my mind, replaying certain insights from influential philosophers I've studied, trying to eke out some inspiration. Long walks in the sunshine with these thoughts have been therapeutic. But long walks in the sunshine while listening to Rush—my favorite philosophical muse—have been freakin' amazing.

Mental toll of self-isolation can be severe | Contemporary Pediatrics
Much of the focus on COVID-19 research has understandably been about discovering more about the disease, finding treatments to help save lives, and creating the vaccine that will mean the end of the pandemic. The toll of the current home confinement on children has been less studied, but a new research letter published in JAMA Pediatrics provides some information, using students from the Hubei province in China.

This Graphic Shows There Is No One Way to Be a ‘Highly Sensitive Person’
When I first heard of the term “highly sensitive person (HSP),” I took the quiz developed by Dr. Elaine Aron and I actually scored fairly low. Still within bounds to be considered highly sensitive, but not by as much as I would have guessed. I assumed this meant I was simply less sensitive than I thought, and I was just exaggerating and trying to make myself feel “special” by thinking of myself as this super sensitive creature.

President Trump Is Poorly Defended
To all but his most fervid fans, president Trump’s public behavior offers a common source of bafflement. How do you explain the compulsive self-aggrandizement, the hostile raging public outbursts, the refusal to acknowledge self evident truths and simple facts, the constant complaining about being under siege, witch-hunted, Unappreciated, unfairly attacked, and how others are mean to him; the incessant lying, the stark absence of humor, common decency, and empathy?

How to Reprogram Your Brain for Excellence
The human body is an assemblage of systems that have a surprising degree of autonomy from one another, and that are all busy managing various aspects of our mental and physical lives. Nonetheless, they do communicate with one another, and that’s why the human assemblage works pretty well most of the time.

The Wonders of Self-Compassion Amidst the COVID-19 Pandemic
Self-compassion is a powerful yet often under-used and under-appreciated tool. With the COVID-19 pandemic going on, we need to take the time to care for our emotional wellbeing. Doing this can even enable us to help others better. Self-compassion can motivate us internally and allow us to show compassion to others externally.

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.

Mourning the Little Things
In 1776, Thomas Paine said, “These are the times that try men’s souls.” Little did he know how true his statement would be over 200 years later. Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, we find ourselves in a most unusual and challenging time. We are used to grieving a large number of losses from hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, and earthquakes. But now, the whole world is grieving. When we think of grief, we usually think of the loss of a loved one. However, we can grieve anything to which we are emotionally attached. We just never realized the number of things to which we were attached.

Please Stop Calling it “Social Distancing”
I’m a word guy. My career is grounded in the spoken and written word. As such, I believe in the power of words and that it’s important that the words we use are highly descriptive of what we’re trying to communicate. Words are so powerful because they have meaning. And that meaning acts as the lens through which we perceive, interpret, understand, and use the words we come across in every form of communication and media. Words shape how we think, the emotions we feel, the way we act on our world, and how we interact with others.

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.

One of the most frustrating and difficult aspects of learning disabilities is that they are  often accompanied by another condition including, ADHD or ADD, speech impairments, and seizure disorder. The coexisting condition I was diagnosed with was an expressive language disorder, which causes mild to severe difficulties in written and verbal expression. The disorder can lead to challenges and confusion in academic and social settings.

How to Spot Postpartum Depression in Your Friend Entering Motherhood
I think it’s important for me to preface this by admitting I have exactly zero children of my own. I do, however, spend a good majority of my time explaining to family and friends I’m not even sure I want children. Naturally, they are often horrified by this fact and cannot wrap their heads around the idea I don’t find motherhood appealing. The conversations around women having kids and raising them is often about what a “fulfilling” and “wonderful” experience it is, and we are told this over and over again by the people closest to us.

10 Ways to Help your Partner through a Midlife Crisis
What most people fail to understand is that it is an emotional crisis more than a physical one, often hitting men harder than women. Whether you are in your forties or fifties, a midlife crisis is a transition and adjustment at that point of life.The only issue is that at this transition into the remainder of one’s life, they tend to use it as a standpoint to stop and evaluate their past and current opportunities and successes, making room for jealousy and, in some cases, mild depression.

What is Masculinity and How do Psychologists Measure it?
Examining masculinity from a psychological standpoint provides an opportunity to isolate factors that contribute to sexual and gun violence and men’s poorer health. Psychology distinguishes biological sex (being male, female, or intersex) from socio-psychological gender (referring to masculinity, femininity, as well as various non-binary identities).
