My four daughters and I watched Disney’s new movie “Turning Red” for the second time tonight. It’s about a quirky 13-year-old girl who, seemingly overnight, develops all kinds of feelings and hormone rushes and then — poof — turns into a giant red panda. Hilarity and chaos ensue. I won’t give any spoilers, but the big idea is that she just has to last a month until she can undergo a ritual that will lock away the panda for good.

These bubble quotes provide a reminder of how sometimes we can all live in a bubble of our own making. Often those bubbles are idyllic and comforting. However, they can also keep us from experiencing the real world.

Hospitalizations for mental health can be helpful, but for some people, they can create traumatic memories and distrust of doctors, especially if the facility is less than ideal. My own personal experiences with hospitalization have shown that facilities can vary greatly, and that advocating for yourself in advance is important to the type of experience you may have.

.In his latest book , Nalebuff argues that considering the collective’s needs is the most productive way to problem solve. Unfortunately, few people and practically no businesses approach discussions with this mindset, a problem he’s intent on changing. “One of the reasons that people dislike negotiation is that they feel taken advantage of,” explains Nalebuff in his interview with host Tristan Ahumada.

According to Team ADHD, 10 million Americans are diagnosed with adult ADHD. Interestingly, they claim that there are many more people who go undiagnosed.

We were the “lucky” ones. When our daughter was diagnosed with a laundry list of acronyms and labels, we had the support of a mature and thriving disabilities ministry. We found programs that were tailor-made for our child and allowed us the opportunity as a family to attend church regularly. As a matter of fact, I believe God used her diagnosis to bring us back to him. With a volunteer that showed up every Sunday to be our daughter’s “buddy,” we suddenly felt accountable and were determined to show up regularly. Showing up regularly is what ultimately led me to be baptized again as an adult and for us to create a nonprofit that helps parents, pastors, and teachers find the resources to help children with disabilities be their best.

It had been weeks of the worst flare I’d ever gone through and I was only getting worse. I could barely sit up for more than a few minutes at a time and the fatigue grew more and more each day.

chemical reactions that allow your body to burn calories. It includes your resting metabolic rate, the thermic effect of physical activity, and the thermic effect of feeding.

Today is Mardi Gras — a day when (among other things) some Catholics take every opportunity possible to eat delicious food before observing Ash Wednesday the following day. This seems pretty innocuous and a lot of fun, too — who wouldn’t want to enjoy all of their favorite foods before a far-less-tasty day of religious observance?

Like many fellow “Zebras” or Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) patients, my diagnostic odyssey took around 15 years — from initial physical symptom onset to a formal diagnosis at age 35 last February. In those 15 years, I was repeatedly disbelieved, discredited, belittled, patronized, and gaslighted by the medical professionals who were supposed to be caring for me and helping me. Instead of helping me, they subjected me to unforgivable levels of iatrogenic harm — harm caused by the medical profession. Their lack of clinical knowledge, inability to manage complex patients, and downright ignorance delayed my diagnosis for years on end. By blaming my “mental health” for everything I experienced, they absolved themselves of any responsibility for finding out what was happening with my body.  For years, doctors didn’t believe that anything was actually physically “wrong” with me, and they repeatedly told me, “It’s all in your head.” My doctors told me that what I perceived were “physical” problems were categorically attributed to “psychological causes” as aftereffects of severe childhood abuse and trauma.

The 300 million people living with rare diseases seldom receive appropriate medical treatment. Unlike common chronic diseases for which there are often established and constantly evolving treatments and interventions, those with rare diseases largely struggle to cope with symptoms on their own. This has a devastating effect not only physically, but also, emotionally. Many are often never accurately diagnosed despite dozens of failed attempts and countless consultations with doctors and specialists. When no empirical data for our symptoms is found, we are given psychosomatic diagnoses of depression, anxiety, and other mental health disorders. Ultimately, doctors give up on us and worse, often blame us for our own condition. Even making accusations of self-inflicted illness such as Munchausen syndrome or labeling us with factitious disorder or conversion disorder.
