Hard-hitting presentation about what is mental health with statistics that will open your eyes that this issue might be closer to home thank you think!
By Alison Roberts
In our country plenty of legal orders interact with mental disorders in order to protect the interests of
mentally ill, society and the state.These legislations are enacted to protect the society from dangerous manifestations of mental illness. There are guidelines regarding restrain, admission and discharge, procedures of civil and criminal action with regard to mentally ill. But do these laws discuss about proper care and treatment? Are there provisions for post discharge care and rehabilitation?

This power point is about the problems of well-being and mental health. It is important to understand that if you do not take care of your mental health issues it can lead to a serious mental illness.
I am quite proud of this video that I did for a mental health fair at DTCC today. Upon completion of the psych unit of my RN nursing degree, I have realized the need to educate the public about the prevalence and many aspects of mental illness. This video is about fighting the stigma (a mark of disgrace) associated with mental illness/dual diagnoses by educating the public. Knowledge is power! The presentation is set to Matchbox 20's "Unwell." They are one of my favorite bands and I felt that the song was fitting for this project. Thank you for watching, and know that just one person can truly make a difference in the lives of many that are touched by mental illness and/or substance abuse.

It’s a great time to be in technology. Computers keep getting better. More and more devices keep getting connected to the internet. Javascript frameworks are multiplying like bacteria. And yet despite the improvement in our tools, we somehow don’t spend time talking about how to maintain our most important tool - the one between our ears.
Constantly feeling worn down, experiencing anxiety over making decisions, and burning out are not just facts of a developer’s life! They’re challenges that can be dealt with. In this talk we’ll cover the most common mental health challenges facing developers, and then learn about some techniques to supercharge your brain by improving your mental hygiene (whether you have a psychological disorder or not). Most importantly, you’ll learn how to have a conversation with your coworkers (and other people in your life) about supporting each other and finding your best selves.

Mental Health and Mental Illness should be known to everyone. Unfortunately, it is still a stigma and not many people would talk about it, let alone learn about it.
I hope that this could spread information and awareness especially to the younger generations who are not taught about this.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Eating disorders are a range of conditions that can affect
someone physically, psychologically and socially. They include
anorexia, bulimia and binge eating disorder. Over 725,000 men
and women in the UK are affected by eating disorders.
Young women are most likely to develop an eating disorder,
particularly those aged 12 to 20, but older women and men of
all ages can also have an eating disorder. Children as young
as seven can develop anorexia and there is a greater
proportion of boys in this younger age group.

Studies have found that between four and 10 per cent of people across
the world hear voices.
Between 70 and 90 cent of people who hear voices do so following
traumatic events.
Voices can be male, female, without gender, child, adult, human or
non-human.
People may hear one voice or many. Some people report hearing
hundreds, although in almost all reported cases, one dominates above
the others
.
Voices can be experienced in the head, in the ears, outside the head,
in some other part of the body, or in the environment.
Voices often reflect important aspects of the hearer’s emotional state –
emotions that are often unexpressed by the hearer.

The difference between bipolar 1 and Bipolar 2 is severity
of the ‘high’ and ‘low’ experiences.
Bipolar 1 is more severe, the person experiences
mania/severe depression.
Bipolar 2 means the person experiences hypomania.
The difference between the two is not clear cut. If the
person is at risk from harm, or has developed psychosis,
this is seen as mania.

What the organisation can doWhat the organisation can do
Have a strong mental health policy
Have good support services
develop a culture where everyone is treated with respect and
dignity and issues such as bullying and harassment are not
tolerated
develop a culture where open and honest communication is
encouraged and support and mutual respect are the norm.
Encouraging an ethos where staff know that it is OK to talk
about mental health and that it is safe to disclose their own
mental health conditions.
56. +
Helpful ResponsesHelpful Responses
Try to remain calm. Think about body language.
Be as gentle and non-critical as you can.
Do not make judgments. What they are feeling is their unique
experience and you should refrain from giving your opinions or
views
Let the person know that you want to help
Listen quietly and reflectively to what they have to say - let
them express their worries and tell you how they see life.
57. +
Helpful ResponsesHelpful Responses
Ask how you can help?
If the person is in delusion or denial, don’t try to argue them out
of it. But don’t agree with them either.
Example: “I am rotting, can you smell it? I can smell it.”
One possible response: “I can’t smell anything. I don’t think you
are rotting. But I can see you are upset by that. Do you want to
talk to someone about it?
Try and come up with ways with the person to reduce fear.
58. +
Fear…Fear…

Helpful ResponsesHelpful Responses
Make meetings/spaces/emails feel safe. Warmness/lack of
harshness.
Example: Dolly, you didn’t come in last week. You must come
in, otherwise this be reported and you might lose your place on
the course.
Could have been phrased: Dolly, how you doing? I noticed you
didn’t come in last week. Are things ok? I hear you struggling
with things. Do you want to come in for an informal, relaxed
chat, so we can talk through any difficulties you may have, and
see how we can work this through together. You are missed.
