Is depression, anxiety and mood swings caused by money issues?

Image
Hello coffee lovers, I am back after a summer break. I know who breaks as a writer? Well there are things that writers go through that can affect writing and i rather give you my all then something half passed. I noticed my lack of writing was connected my lack of inspiration. I think it was because the money issues I was dealing with really did affect me.I know many people wouldn't mention their financial issues but this time around it was a tough summer. As time went by i wasn’t my happy lucky self and well i did less and barely even wrote. I realized that having finances can affect one’s inspiration in a whole way. Whether it be causing depression, anxiety and different mood swings that were not there before you had these money issues. According to https://www.cambridge-credit.org/ “If you constantly find yourself consumed with how much money you have (or don't) and how you're going to keep a roof over your head, get to work, and possibly feed your family, t...

What Is Causing Canadian Wildfires? How can we prevent it?

Image
Hello coffee lovers, I know it's been awhile but i have been working on my new book coming up soon i hope. I really have been drinking lots of coffee to keep up with the news lately. Of course everyone is worried about the wildfires in Canada, which they should be. It's scary and many people are getting sick. Yet we know about it let's go into the facts of how these wildfires happen. How do wildfires start? When it comes down to things like these it can be two main things. It can be heat waves that get too high and apparently thunder strikes. According to https://www.cbsnews.com/ the wildfire started with half of Canada's wildfires being started by lightning. But it did not stop there; the weather was at a higher temperature than normal. Mother nature took her own course to where we are today. How do we fight mother nature? The man made fires can hopefully become more aware of what we are doing and have a small chance of stopping them but mother nature is someth...

A shooting in Texas 5 dead

Image
Dear coffee lovers, I am sorry to have this conversation, but it must be discussed. A neighbor in Cleveland Texas goes over to the next house because they were being a bit loud because he was shooting out rounds, and their child was trying to sleep. The man replied instead of trying to be proper he responded back with something of “I can do what I want.” The father, not paying attention to the neighbor and his rude ways, went back home and just went about his day to make sure his family would be able to sleep. The neighbor who was making noise, Francisco Oropeza decided to later on stroll over to the house and somehow walks in the house and tries to execute the whole family. You can tell this man had no remorse. He killed most of them in the head and one victim was only age 8. Only two survived because they were shielded by their mom. They were also children as well. Yet he has yet to be caught i hope he gets caught soon before we lose more lives I was so angry with this. How...

Ariana Grande talks about her body on TikTok

Image
Hello coffee lovers, As I am here drinking my coffee, just a homemade medium coffee with French vanilla cream and I noticed a message that really made me really think. Arianna Grande talked about her weight on TikTok. It made me think about how often one’s weight comes up and how so many are dissatisfied with their body weight and so on. There are many men & women that are going through something traumatic, and they lose the weight or gain the weight. Some people just have a hard time gaining or losing as well. According to https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/ : estimated that 20% to 40% of women are dissatisfied with their bodies. Nevertheless, body dissatisfaction is also reported in men, suggesting that 10% to 30% of men show body dissatisfaction (33) or 69% of male adolescents to be dissatisfied with their bodies in terms of their weight (34). I, myself have issues losing it but again there are so many reasons for our weight. Some are just genetics. I think our problem today ...

They passed the house bill Jim crow law.

Image
Hello coffee lovers, I am shotting down an expresso right now because I am so upset. For those who do not know a few days ago they restated the Jim Crow Law in Mississippi (house bill 1020). For those who do not know what the Jim crown Law is its basically the separation of black and whites. What I mean by that they are taking away voting rights, and work from black people. God knows whatever else. The Jim Crow laws were state and local laws introduced in the Southern United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries that enforced racial segregation, "Jim Crow" being a pejorative term for an African American.[1] Such laws remained in force until the 1960s. This pisses me off, we came so far for being where we are today. Somehow the world is going backwards. What do you think will happen? It will become worse people will fight and fight until another war comes. So many of us majority has worked so hard to get the respect and be treated equal and I think that p...

Retirement :Age going up?

Image
Hello coffee lovers, This conversation made me want a double shot of espresso and adding cream at the same time. According to https://www.ssa.gov/pressoffice/IncRetAge.html are increasing the age we get to retire to 65. It had millions of people upset and they have all the reason in the world to be. After a certain age it gets harder and if you've been working most of your life adding mage years to when you get to enjoy your life is saddening. I think it's because of the money , but I think if you worked so many years you should be able to retire after 60. Again this is my opinion but bringing it up to 65 does not help us at all. The more time we work the faster our lives are over. These days people are losing their lives before even 60 and we're expected to enjoy our lives after over half of our lives are over. Am i this age i'm not but i have parents who are over 60 and deserve to retire. I am pretty sure others feel the same as I do. They gave up sweat, te...

New Amsterdam

Image
Hello coffee lovers, I hope you had a double epresso today or something strong. This conversation is goning to make you want to binge on a show and maybe change your life a bit. Yes i am talking aboutthe show "New Amsterdam" which is a great show with not enough recognition.To me it's a diamond in the rough. The show is about a doctor who tries to change the world one story at a time.The stories given in this show are something special and you have to take these stories for what they really are.The truth is a lot of awareness. Dr Goodwin hustles and he smiles while having his own way to help those who need to be helped. New Amsterdam, played by the main character, premiered in September 2018, on NBC now playing on Netflix about a Dr. Max Goodwin who was played by Ryan Eggold. The cast have Likable characters and are different from the normal shows you see. He works on every episode trying to make the world or at least the hospital better in little ways. Yet it...

We are no longer Stepford wives

Image
Hello coffee Lovers, I know it's been awhile. I hope you're enjoying the new conversations that have been coming. Today I would like to talk about something I find very interesting. I am not sure if you ever heard of “The Stepford Wives" made in 2004 Charming Joanna played by (Nicole Kidman). (Bette Midler and John Lovitz were also in this movie) It Was about a hard working woman who loses her job and her family and moves to a place to get away from it all and goes to a place called stepford. Where the wives have been possessed to be a man's dream come true. Meaning cleaning obeying and giving them sex anytime they want it. The woman became a “Yes” woman anything you say woman. But the main character did not go down that easily. I mention this because I am pretty sure it was in the past. It was similar to this movie. As time went by women started speaking up for themselves and taking their lives seriously because they have thoughts and hearts and brains as...

Luckiest girl alive: But was she?

Image
Hello coffee lovers, I was drinking a cappuccino with caramel so hot and foamy as I was watching a movie on Netflix called “Luckiest girl alive'' played by Mila Kunis, a great actress I have been watching for years . Which really resonated with what women go through alot. This movie is based on a woman who had a hard past life and had to look perfect so she is not being judged for the past. Yet she was breaking inside while smiling on the outside. Women or any victims if they have to hide what they've been through can really break a person. Especially when your reputation is not the best type. I say no matter what you asked for in your past if you say no its no. You can be with many people or have a very open past. But still a victim because you used the word “NO”. I know they are trying to make it ok with a bill in North Carolina’s the only state with a law that says once a sexual act begins, you can’t withdraw consent. I think this is sad because there are man...

Therapy : Shh we don’t say that word!

Image
Hello coffee Lovers, I hope your coffee is keeping your body and mind warm. Speaking of our minds, let's discuss our mental health. We hate talking about what we are going through on mental status. In one of my other blogs I discuss how therapists and how they take their work hom. This one is about the patients and the lack of patients because of their cultures. When it comes to therapy in cultures the influence can gain and maintain cultural competence. Which means depending on one’s culture talking to anyone outside of their family or their relationship if frowned upon. Which I will admit in my head I thought going to a therapist was unnecessary.or made me feel like there was something wrong with me. I didn’t want others to look at me like I was broken. It took me a longtime to realize I do need someone to talk to who was not a friend or a family one who will eb mutual and will not judge me for what was in my heart and mind. There are 5 reasons why people don'...
