#treatments for mood disorders

[girlwithfish]

thinking abt how my whole family invalidated me abt bpd and how i let it get to me is like so eye opening cuz i rly shldnt have even disclosed my personal problems to them or taken their opinions to heart or anything bc ultimately its my experiences and life and they barely know me that deeply like my actual struggles and mental health and idk why i let it get to me for so long

#And my therapist saying like yeah the diagnosis we have on file for ur treatment is bpd is like ohh so im not just fucked upand crazy 👍 #its nawt just depression or some vague mood disorder 👍 #Lol #Idk #and my prozac is really like yeah 10mg is not gonna do shit for me my therapist was saying like 10mg is for ppl w low depression ifs not gna #suit u or help.. so true i just have put it off for so long bc i have like subconscious doubt in meds but #im rly hoping i can feel better on the right medication idk >_> and im still rly sad that #i wont be seeing my therapist in the future since im switching to a dbt program it makes me sad cuz #shes the first therapist ive truly liked and felt hope with and comfortable w like shes helped me a lot so im sad 😭and #nervous abt starting over. also nervous abt group dbt. idk #:/ #ig its just necessary. i go back n forth like yk maybe im ok i dont need that im relatively.mentally stable but i really am not #which is hard ig. Idk #im gonna mjss my therapist im rly sad i cant see her anymore eventually. i still will for a few weeks until i #find a program n stuff :(

anytime i see the word “holistic” used in relation to medical stuff i am on edge. my classmate’s research project uses that word and focuses on the effects of a dietary fat on bipolar disorder and im just like. look whatever fucking thing you come up with isn’t going to be worth cutting out a significant part of nutrition for whatever minimal impact it might have, if any, when there are far more viable treatment options that cover a lot of ground

#i am going to throw you down the stairs if i start seeing doctors tell bipolar patients to cut out dietary fats #you just know that people will be like ‘omg dont eat foods with fat in them it causes bipolar disorder!!’ #diet culture #ableism #<- for blacklist #i cant remember much about the origins of the keto diet rn but i know it had to do with epilepsy treatment for those who - #- didnt respond well to other means of treatment specifically in childhood iirc ? i’ll have to look into that #but the word holistic is SUCH a red flag for this specific type of research i feel like #im in some kind of mood dont mind me

It’s orvuto anon again, I stalled on your pinned post again — experimental neuroscience?? :eyes:

Yesss. I'm actually an undergrad neuroscience major... Like writing and art and stuff is just for fun, I wanna be a research neuroscientist one day lol.

#That's why I practically haven't posted the past few weeks cuz I'm back in school #I'm also in a lot of east asian history classes because I'm minoring in east asian language and lit for fun #and I've been running into this barrier recently where I feel like its hard to explain to people the overlap that exists between hard #science and the needs of the individuals that science is supposed to help you know #like for me the reason being a research neuroscientist is so appealing is because if you're going to pick a job where you mostly do busy #work all day then being in a research field just means you know that whatever pointless thing you're doing or failed experiment you perform #everything you do is a piece of data that's going to contribute to this greater process that really has tangible eeffects in helping real #people who suffer from neurological disease. which I think is comforting in a world where doing a little never feels like enough #What I've been thinking about lately though is that I have an inherent belief in that system because I really believe in the ability of #people to do good in it because I'm coming from the same frame of rationalist mindset that a lot of research is based in but that in #clinical applications there are a lot of inherent biases that prevent people from knowing what illnesses they have and how to receive #treatment for them... because in my east asian history classes we've been talking about different belief systems and ways of thought #that sometimes have to do with medicine or psychology. and I always think that it's interesting to analyze practices that are mysticized in #modernity through that lense. but it's become apparent to me that it's hard to express that interest as genuine to religious people without #them feeling as though I'm dismissing their beliefs rather than trying to analyze how they interact with the physical reality that I know. #and it made me realize that the dismissiveness of western science towards religion combined with ableism in society makes it hard for peop #le who have the symptoms of things like psychosis or mood disorders that might have an associated role in a religion to feel like #psychiatric diagnosis or treatment isn't a complete insult to who they are as a person and I think that's the fault of a lack of compassion #and respect for others in clinical practice... its just like a social norm that i really wish would change. because i don't think physical #reality has to be dismissive of spiritual beliefs when acknowledged but because of some of the habits of western scientists and #certain subsects of christianity people don't think about it enough to have that conversation sometimes... #that's just what i've been thinking about lately lol. #personal #ask #anonymous

Hi, I only know star wars through the fandom, wiki, and I saw clone wars when I'm was a kid. Do the Jedi have mental health care in canon? If they do would they be considered legit professionals or would they be quacks by in universe and our standards?

In Legends and Disney Wars comics material, there are occasionally mentions of Jedi mind healers, psychiatrists, and psychologists, but they never actually get mentioned or offered to anyone involved in the Jedi Order, Imperial army, clone army, or Sith in canon, so I don’t really hold Anakin, Luke, Yoda, Obi-Wan, Ahsoka, or any of the other characters accountable in canon for not mentioning or seeking out therapy and prescription treatments to deal with all their personal issues and trauma, or mitigate serious symptoms of behavioral and mood disorders because, within the narratives of their stories, therapy really doesn’t seem to exist at all.

Even if you assume it really does exist, though, prescription meds and therapy don’t always work. Yes, you also have to have some personal willpower to make an effort to change, but if the therapist and/or psychiatrist sucks at their job, then it’s on either them and/or those who trained them, too.

You also have to consider that the universe of Star Wars is so vastly fucked up in its legal system and morality both the Republic and the Empire, particularly in the prequels. There doesn’t seem to be any social services that protects the safety of minors in the prequels.

The Republic’s military is allowed to take on force sensitive children from their families from infancy under incredibly dubious and ill-informed consent to start training them as soldiers with lethal weapons and send them on dangerous missions by the ages of four in the prequels.

These recruits are cut off from their birth families after being taken in by the Jedi, and, while they can technically leave anytime, the Council and their masters don’t make it this viable option that their recruits would ever be able to feel reasonably well-rounded, safe, and supported in doing either, so they’re not really given any sort of true freedom in the matter.

The members of the Republic government help out the slavers and/or help perpetuate slavery on the outer rims for their “greater good” because it’s safer and looks better than siding with those under them. The Jedi Council run their system like a cult that strips its members of their personal freedoms and well-being for their “greater good.” They mutually agree to take on a slave army from Palpatine and agree to enable each other’s systematic abuse of power in return for a sense of security from each other.

A 14 year old girl is allowed to rule her home planet and make serious political decisions in The Phantom Menace.

The bottom line is that, even if you want to believe that psychotherapy does really exist in Star Wars, it doesn’t matter because it never is seriously taken into consideration in the stories for any of the characters as viable options for them within this universe, anyway. Even if it were, it wouldn’t be accurate, fair, or objective in practice in the old Republic or the Empire at all, anyway.

#star wars anon #there is no psychotherapy or treatment for behavioral and mood disorders in the SW universe #i just prefer sticking with the theory that SW is a deeply tragic and dysfunctional fairytale universe where no therapy exists at all #ot star wars #pt star wars #because if we’re supposed to believe proper mental health treatment then it either sucks and/or the universe had no reason to suck so much #granted being an abuse victim and mental health issues aren’t an excuse for committing abuse and crime yourself #but it’s also true that Anakin couldn’t have gone dark and those Jedi younglings couldn’t have been killed by enemies in war at all #if the SW universe had a proper legal system and social services who had enough common sense to realize it’s WRONG to use kids as soldiers #if proper psychotherapy and psychology 101 existed in the SW canon galaxy then they shouldn’t be able to get away with the shit they did #so I just don’t buy that it exists at all.

Maybe I’m not autistic and simply have deeper levels of c-PTSD than I thought

#not imposter syndrome I wouldn't mind much either way #would just like to know so I can fix my treatment plan(s) #saw a TikTok the other day that was like 'went in for an autism diagnosis came out with c-PTSD and a mood disorder' that was funny #idk like I feel like I'm too good at my customer service job to be autistic but I'm too bad at connecting with my peers to be neurotypical #so I am simply a secret third thing (majorly fucked up by my mom) ((c-PTSD)) #(((?))) #like I cried every single time my nanny went home when I was a baby but I had no signs of physical abuse but. I remember playing with my- #-nanny I remember nothing of my mother #I thrive when I have a few days time away from her in any way #something is adding up here and it does not equal autism idk

I never know when to draw the line between “I am exhibiting signs of potential oncoming hypomania” and “I am experiencing a hypomanic episode” bc I give a lot of fucks about words meaning things and it’s not a technical clinical hypomanic episode unless it lasts at least a few days to a week but also. That does include the beginning of that week lol and part of what I worked on when i saw a psychiatrist was tracking what oncoming episodes look like so that at or before the start of them I can be like ah yes all signs point to That. Even if it can be explained by other things too or ends up just being a mood swing I feel successful in learning to identify and verbalize these things which is, dare I say, neat

#also I do feel like this is more than a mood swing considering I lowkey thought I was god this afternoon and acted on (harmless) impulses #and now am awake all night rambling about anything and everything. seems pretty classic 2 me. #never rly matters 2 me what words these things r called as long as I have a way of saying in words what I’m experiencing #a diagnosis 2 me is a treatment plan and also a way of communicating #mine #txt #bipolar #bipolar disorder #bipolar type 2 #bipolar 2 #mental illness #hypomania #personal

common myths about migraines (AKA if you get headaches regularly, please seek treatment for migraines)

"i don't have migraines because while i get them several times a week, it's only when i am hungry or dehydrated."

those are probably migraines. thirst, hunger, sleep disturbances, or any disruption to routine are common migraine triggers.

"my headaches are specifically barometric related, i get them when the weather/altitude changes."

those are probably migraines. barometric pressure is a common migraine trigger.

"i get headaches all the time but ibuprofen gets rid of them so they can't be migraines."

that's not true. ibuprofen works great at relieving migraine pain for many people.

"my consistent headaches are tension headaches. i feel them originate in my neck/shoulders."

those are probably migraines. muscle tension is a common migraine trigger.

if you are regularly getting headaches (once a week or more), you are likely getting migraines. in fact, a good rule of thumb if you're consistently getting headaches is to treat them as migraines until you can rule out migraines. that's how common "chronic headache = migraine" actually is.

migraines are a neurological disorder wherein pain is one symptom. pain is often the MAIN symptom, and the most noticeable symptom, which can make diagnosis tricky. other symptoms of migraine include:

fatigue

nausea/vomiting

digestive issues

visual disturbances (auras)

sensitivity to light and/or sound

mood changes

brain fog/cognitive changes

ringing in the ears

dizziness/vertigo

numbness/weakness on one side of the body

this list is NOT complete, but is a starting point. i really like the comparison to a hangover. if you generally feel hungover when you get a headache (without having consumed alcohol), that's a classic migraine presentation.

so many people suffer from migraine and don't even know it, so they aren't able to advocate for themselves to get treatment. there are great new migraine treatments on the market! if you're able, please seek treatment for your migraines. a better quality of life is possible.
