Social phobia, also called social anxiety disorder, involves overwhelming anxiety and excessive self-consciousness in everyday social situations. People with social phobia have a persistent, intense, and chronic fear of being watched and judged by others and being embarrassed or humiliated by their own actions.

Their fear may be so severe that it interferes with work or school, and other ordinary activities. While many people with social phobia recognize that their fear of being around people may be excessive or unreasonable, they are unable to overcome it. They often worry for days or weeks in advance of a dreaded situation.

Social phobia can be limited to only one type of situation- such as a fear of speaking in formal or informal situations, or eating, drinking, or writing in front of others-or, in its most severe form, may be so broad that a person experiences symptoms almost anytime they are around other people. Social phobia can be very debilitating-it may even keep people from going to work or school on some days. Many people with this illness have a hard time making and keeping friends.

Physical symptoms often accompany the intense anxiety of social phobia and include blushing, profuse sweating, trembling, nausea, and difficulty talking. If you suffer from social phobia, you may be painfully embarrassed by these symptoms and feel as though all eyes are focused on you. You may be afraid of being with people other than your family.

People with social phobia are aware that their feelings are irrational. Even if they manage to confront what they fear, they usually feel very anxious beforehand and are intensely uncomfortable throughout. Afterward, the unpleasant feelings may linger, as they worry about how they may have been judged or what others may have thought or observed about them.

Social phobia affects about 5.3 million adult Americans.1 Women and men are equally likely to develop social phobia.10 The disorder usually begins in childhood or early adolescence,2 and there is some evidence that genetic factors are involved.11 Social phobia often co-occurs with other anxiety disorders or depression.2,4 Substance abuse or dependence may develop in individuals who attempt to “self-medicate” their social phobia by drinking or using drugs.4,5 Social phobia can be treated successfully with carefully targeted psychotherapy or medications.

Social phobia can severely disrupt normal life, interfering with school, work, or social relationships. The dread of a feared event can begin weeks in advance and be quite debilitating.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a condition that becomes apparent in some children in the preschool and early school years. It is hard for these children to control their behavior and/or pay attention. It is estimated that between 3 and 5 percent of children have ADHD, or approximately 2 million children in the United States. This means that in a classroom of 25 to 30 children, it is likely that at least one will have ADHD.

Depression is a serious medical condition that involves the body, mood, and thoughts. People with a depressive illness cannot merely “pull themselves together” and get better. Without treatment, symptoms can last for weeks, months, or years. Appropriate treatment, however, can help most people who have depression.

Depression: Free Report

Anxiety is a normal reaction to stress. It helps one deal with a tense situation in the office, study harder for an exam, keep focused on an important speech. In general, it helps one cope. But when anxiety becomes an excessive, irrational dread of everyday situations, it has become a disabling disorder.

Bipolar depression, also called bipolar disorder or “manic-depressive” disease, is a mental illness that causes people to have severe high and low moods. People who have this illness switch from feeling overly happy and joyful to feeling very sad, and vice versa. Because of the highs and the lows — or two poles of mood — the condition is referred to as “bipolar” depression. In between episodes of mood swings, a person may experience normal moods.

The word “manic” describes the periods when the person feels overly excited and confident. These feelings can quickly turn to confusion, irritability, anger, and even rage. The word “depressive” describes the periods when the person feels very sad or depressed. Because the symptoms are similar, sometimes people with bipolar depression are incorrectly diagnosed as having major depression.
Most individuals with bipolar disorder spend more time in depressed phases than in manic phases.

What Are the Symptoms of Bipolar Disorder?

The dramatic and rapidly changing mood swings from highs to lows do not follow a set pattern, and depression does not always follow manic phases. A person may also experience the same mood state several times before suddenly experiencing the opposite mood. Mood swings can happen over a period of weeks, months, and sometimes even years.
The severity of the depressive and manic phases can differ from
person to person and in the same person at different times.
Symptoms of mania (”the highs”):

=======================================================================
This Is Life changing, even if you were my own brother, I would tell you to get this!!

buckster7.johnhh.hop.clickbank.net/

=======================================================================

• Excessive happiness, hopefulness, and excitement
• Sudden changes from being joyful to being irritable, angry, and hostile
• Restlessness
• Rapid speech and poor concentration
• Increased energy and less need for sleep
• High sex drive
• Tendency to make grand and unattainable plans
• Tendency to show poor judgment, such as deciding to quit a job
• Drug and alcohol abuse
• Increased impulsivity

Some people with bipolar disorder can become psychotic, seeing and hearing things that aren’t there and holding false beliefs from which they cannot be swayed. In some instances they see themselves as having superhuman skills and powers, or think they are God-like.
During depressive periods (”the lows”), a person with bipolar disorder may experience:

• Sadness
• Loss of energy
• Feelings of hopelessness or worthlessness
• Loss of enjoyment from things that once were pleasurable
• Difficulty concentrating
• Uncontrollable crying
• Difficulty making decisions
• Irritability
• Increased need for sleep
• Insomnia
• A change in appetite causing weight loss or gain
• Thoughts of death or suicide
• Attempting suicide

Who Gets Bipolar Disorder?

According to the National Institute of Mental Health, over 2 million American adults have bipolar disorder. Bipolar disorder usually begins in early adulthood, appearing before age 35. Children and adolescents, however, can develop this disease in more severe forms and often in combination with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Some studies have indicated that bipolar depression is genetically inherited, occurring more commonly within families.

While bipolar disorder occurs equally in women and men, women with bipolar disorder may switch moods more quickly — this is called “rapid cycling.” Varying levels of sex hormones and activity of the thyroid gland in the neck, together with the tendency to be prescribed antidepressants, may contribute to the more rapid cycling seen in women. Women may also experience more periods of depression than men.

It has been estimated that up to 60% of all people with bipolar disorder have drug or alcohol dependence. It has also been shown to occur frequently in people with seasonal depression and certain anxiety disorders, like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
What Causes Bipolar Disorder?

A definite cause for any type of depression is difficult to determine but include genetics, changes in the brain, and environmental factors like stress and major life changes. More research is being done to determine the relationship that these factors have in bipolar disorder, how they may help prevent its onset, and what role they may play in its treatment.

How Is Bipolar Disorder Diagnosed?

A diagnosis of bipolar disorder is made only by taking careful note of symptoms, and their severity, length, and frequency. The most telling symptoms include severe mood swings (going from extreme highs to extreme lows) that don’t follow a set pattern. Reviewing collateral history from close friends and family is often very helpful to distinguish bipolar disorder from major depression.

If you or someone you know is experiencing symptoms of bipolar disorder, seek the advice of your family health care provider or a psychiatrist. A referral may then be made to an appropriate mental health expert.

A thorough medical evaluation should be performed. Your doctor will ask questions about your personal and family history of mental illness. You may also be asked to complete a depression screening questionnaire — a series of structured questions that you will be asked to answer verbally or in writing.

What Are the Treatments?

Bipolar disorder is a long-term illness that requires management throughout a person’s life. People who have numerous (four or more) episodes of mood changes (rapid cycling) in a year can be much more difficult to treat. Medication is the primary form of treatment, but the additional use of psychotherapy or “talk” therapy is sometimes recommended to help prevent future episodes.
There are many medications available to treat bipolar disorder, including lithium and Depakote.

Lithium

Lithium (brand names Eskalith, Lithobid, Lithonate), a mood-stabilizing drug, is the most commonly prescribed medicine for people with bipolar disorder. It is helpful in controlling mood swings in both directions from mania to depression and from depression to mania. Lithium will reduce symptoms of mania within two weeks of starting therapy, but it may take weeks to months before the condition is completely controlled. Thus other drugs like antipsychotic drugs or antidepressant drugs may also be used to help control symptoms.

Common side effects of lithium include:
• Frequent need to urinate
• Weight gain
• Increased thirst
• Slight trembling of the hands
• Nausea

Thyroid and kidney problems are a concern in people taking lithium, so your doctor will monitor the function of your thyroid and kidneys as well as monitor the levels of lithium in your blood since levels can easily become too high. Anything that lowers the level of sodium in the body, such as switching to a low-sodium diet, heavy sweating, fever, vomiting or diarrhea may cause a buildup of lithium in the body and toxicity. Be aware of these conditions and alert your doctor if you are on lithium and experience them.

The following are signs of a lithium overdose. Call your doctor immediately or go to the nearest emergency room if you experience:
• Blurred vision
• Irregular pulse
• Extremely fast or slow heartbeat
• Difficulty breathing
• Confusion
• Convulsions
• Dizziness
• Severe trembling
• Need to pass large amounts of urine
• Uncontrolled eye movements
• Double vision
• Unusual bruising or bleeding

Depakote

Depakote is an antiseizure medicine that is also effective for controlling mania. It is highly effective for people with rapid-cycling bipolar disorder. The drug has some side effects, can cause inflammation of the liver, and can decrease the amount of platelets (blood cells needed for blood to clot) that the body makes, so your doctor will monitor levels of Depakote as well as liver function and platelet counts.

Common side effects of Depakote include:
• Sedation
• Stomach cramps
• Diarrhea
• Indigestion
• Nausea
• Weight gain
• Slight trembling of hands

Other antiseizure medicines often used to treat bipolar disorder include Tegretol, Lamictal, Neurontin, and Topamax.
Most people with bipolar disorder take more than one medication. Along with the mood stabilizer — either lithium or an anticonvulsant, they may take a medication for agitation, anxiety, insomnia or depression.

Many antidepressants can be used with mood stabilizing drugs to manage the depression of bipolar disorder. If used alone, an antidepressant can push a person with the condition into a manic state and new studies suggest that they may make them suicidal.

What Can I Expect After Treatment?

For most people, a good treatment program can stabilize severe moods and provide effective symptom relief. Treatment that is continual has proven more effective in preventing relapses and controlling cycling. Those who also have a substance abuse problem may need more specialized treatment.

Can Bipolar Disorder Be Prevented?

There is no known method to prevent bipolar disorder. Because its exact cause has not yet been determined, it is especially important to know its symptoms and seek early intervention. Some people who experience bipolar disorder may become suicidal. By knowing how to recognize these symptoms, there is a better chance for effective treatment and finding coping methods that may prevent long periods of illness, extended hospital stays, and suicide.

Suicide Warning Signs

• Many depressive symptoms (changes in eating, sleeping, activities)

• Social isolation
• Talk of suicide, hopelessness, or helplessness
• Increased acting-out behaviors (sexual/behavioral)
• Increased risk-taking behaviors
• Frequent accidents
• Substance abuse
• Focus on morbid and negative themes
• Talk about death and dying
• Increased crying or reduced emotional expression
• Giving away possessions
