June 14th through the 20th is Men’s Health Week, which is a great opportunity to heighten awareness for men’s depression. There is a theme in society applicable to most men as they tend to internalize depressive thoughts, not allowing for a proper diagnosis. There are four major reasons men do not reach out for help with their depression: failure to recognize the depression consuming them, downplaying signs and symptoms, reluctance to converse about their feelings with others, and resisting mental health treatment...

Grief and Loss in Addiction and Recovery - September 2012Dawn Farm
“Grief and Loss in Addiction and Recovery” was presented on September 25, 2012; by Janice Firn, LMSW, Clinical Social Worker, University of Michigan Hospital; Matthew Statman, LLMSW, CADC, Dawn Farm therapist and Education Series Coordinator; and Barb Smith, author of “Brent’s World” (http://compassionhearts.com.) The culture of addiction is rife with experiences of grief and loss for the person with addiction and for family and friends. The nature of these experiences combined with the stigma, shame and general lack of understanding of addiction can make grief and loss associated with addiction exceptionally lonely and difficult to heal from. This program will describe Worden's and Kubler-Ross' theories of grief and grief recovery, losses that the chemically dependent individual and his/her family experience throughout the addiction and recovery processes, and how recovery program tools can help individuals cope with grief and loss. It will include a personal account of addiction-related grief, loss and recovery from a mother who lost her son to addiction-related causes. This program is part of the Dawn Farm Education Series, a FREE, annual workshop series developed to provide accurate, helpful, hopeful, practical, current information about chemical dependency, recovery, family and related issues. The Education Series is organized by Dawn Farm, a non-profit community of programs providing a continuum of chemical dependency services.

Discovering Trauma Bond Relationships | Solh Wellness.pdfSolh Wellness
Understanding trauma bonding – identifying abusive and distressing relationships and rewarding them with brief positive reinforcement – is critical to understanding why people find it difficult to leave painful relationships. Solh Wellness explains about it's Symptoms and Signs and the Most Effective Way to Break the Bond.
Depression is a disorder that is evidenced by excessive sadness, loss of interest in enjoyable things, and low motivation.
It is normal to experience feelings of sadness and despair in response to adverse life events. Such events could include loss, major life changes, stress, or disappointment. In most cases, the sad feelings resolve as you come to terms with the changes in your life. In situations such as bereavement, these feelings may persist for months and return at signicant times, such as birthdays and anniversaries related to the lost loved one. Provided you have times when you can enjoy things, however, this sadness is not a sign of depression.
How To Recognize Depression In Women — And What To Do About ItKaleem Ullah Khan
Depression is a mood disorder that affects people of all ages, genders, and races. However, it often goes unrecognized in women due to the fact that its symptoms differ from those typically associated with men. This can lead to delays in diagnosis and treatment. Depression can cause a wide range of symptoms, including feeling sad or anxious most of the time, losing interest in activities you once enjoyed, changes in appetite or weight, difficulty sleeping or oversleeping, feelings of worthlessness or guilt, and thoughts of suicide.
Sexual violence, including rape, has long-lasting emotional, psychological, and physical effects on survivors. One of these effects is rape trauma syndrome, sometimes called sexual assault trauma syndrome.
Other common mental health disorders after being a victim of sexual violence include depression, anxiety, self-harm, and substance abuse.
Depression and anxiety can do more than just to give you feelings of guiltiness, sadness or unhappiness. They can create unstable emotions, gloom or torpidity in you.
This book is written straight from my personal experiences. I discovered that depression and anxiety can rob you, your child or your loved one of your happiness, health, sleep, energy, memory, vitality, concentration, ability to work, play or love, and in chronic cases, your willing to live!
Unfortunately depression and anxiety are devastating illnesses that affect millions of Americans and other people around the world. Yet, they can be defeated.
I promise you that, by the time you finished reading this book, you will no longer be confused about depression and anxiety. You will know the myths, the facts and the sure ways to fight and defeat them using natural programs and medication.
Depression is a mental illness, it may be described as feeling sad, persistent unhappiness feelings of being miserable. Depression can also be called as a mood disorder which is caused by chemical changes in the brain.

1. The Traumatic Loss Expert Treatment
For Bereaved and Testimony for Trial
1. What is Traumatic Loss
When a family member dies there is grief. However in a traumatic
loss the grief can be overwhelming and other symptoms of traumatic
loss are often present that complicate and extend grief into emotional
disorder.
Traumatic loss is described as a death that is sudden, unexpected,
violent, mutilating, painful, untimely, unnatural. It is often perceived by
the bereaved as something the deceased was innocent and not
responsible for. It is viewed as preventable and unnecessary.
These perceptions create feelings of anger, mistrust , guilt, and
rumination in contrast to sadness due to an “on time” loss, due to natural
causes. Traumatic loss requires a close attachment to the deceased. It is
said that any loss of a child by a parent meets the criteria
2. Symptoms and Effects of Traumatic Loss
2. The emotional symptoms of traumatic loss can be depression shown by
irritability, sadness, boredom, lack of motivation, inability to initiate
activities and emotional withdrawal. Other symptoms are anger,
despair, anxiety, panic attacks worry about loss of others, and loss of
meaning in life.
There are also Cognitive symptoms. Some are part of the Posttraumatic
stress component of traumatic loss. These include memory impairment,
difficulty focusing and concentrating, distractibility and inattentiveness.
Somatic symptoms may also be present. These include sleep problems,
disturbing dreams, nervous stomach, nausea, vomiting , crying
spellsand loss of sexual desire.
The effect on relationships with others due to these symptoms can cause
evident further destruction of self. Long term effects are significant. Even
after decades have passed , most parents have memories and
conversations about their lost loved ones that made them upset or sad.
Each missed milestone, weddings, graduations, birthdays, holidays will
bear a bittersweet reminder of the fact that the deceased is no longer
here to participate. Although some recovery is possible, there is rarely a
complete resolution of the symptoms.
When one mother was asked what she missed most about the loss of her
son she said, “ Talking to him, not seeing touching or hearing him. I lost a
piece of my life.’
3. 3 Treatment of Traumatic Loss
Although some of the current treatment for posttraumatic stress
disorder can be used, treatment regiments should have certain guiding
principles applicable to traumatic loss.
A few of the underlying guidelines are:
Find a psychologist well versed in traumatic loss treatment,
The therapist should orient the mourner to treatment
Provide the mourner with permission to mourn
Promote social support such as survivor groups
Ensure the mourner has appropriate medical evaluation
Do not just accept the surface
Work to enable acceptance of death
4. Identify any unfinished business with the deceased and discover ways
tocreate closure
Work through all of the feelings aroused by the loss
This list is not exhaustive by any means.
4. Testimony of a Traumatic loss expert
The many facets of the mourner’s life are not readily seen by an
attorney. Maybe it’s too painful. Maybe it’s just not our expertise. But if
you want the jury to really see the total devastating effect that a
traumatic loss has on a loved one a traumatic loss expert can tell the
effect in human and clinical terms.
They will document their findings with testing and peer reviewed
literature.
5. Pursue Help Please
If you have suffered a traumatic loss please know this is a lawyer’s
limited point of view and knowledge.
Please know that there is help that can decrease some of your
symptoms.. I urge you to seek an evaluation with a traumatic loss expert.
Life will never be the same again. The loved one you lost wants you to
heal and have a life of meaning.
