Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all blush from time to time. There will always be certain situations in our life where we will feel uncomfortable and embarrassed. There is absolutely nothing to be afraid or ashamed about going red in the face when certain situations call for it. It is a very normal reaction to an increased level of stress and anxiety.However, erythrophobia is out of the ordinary because it is the fear of blushing itself that is what is being dreaded. It occurs without any real reason or in anticipation of going red in the face before the situation even occurs. That may sound very funny to anyone else, but for the victim of the phobia it is a very real fear. Medically called as 'Idiopathic Craniofacial Erythematic', the fear of blushing is a disorder where there is an abnormal active response of the sympathetic nervous system. In layman terms, it is a condition characterized by too much sweating and reddening of the face even before any embarrassing situation occurs or without any apparent reason at all.Erythrophobia can be very stressful. It can develop hypersensitive feelings, social anxiety, poor interpersonal relationships, low self confidence and create obstacles in the person's intelligence, emotional, and social state of mind.Excessive blushing is a simple syndrome like a learning disability or stuttering. Therefore, you can make it go away in time with proper treatment and care. There are lots of options available to treat excessive facial reddening and sweating. Mental relaxation, scientifically called as 'Psychological Rehearsing,' is the safest treatment for curing this syndrome. There are also techniques of meditation, exercises, hypnosis, even facial creams including GABA which can be applied in order to calm down nerves impulse system and Endoscopic Thoracic Surgery (ETS) which is the only possible treatment for more severe cases. Whatever treatment you decide is right for you, the important thing to remember is that you can be cured of your phobia of blushing. That said, there is no need to torment yourself with worry and fear.

When you’re in control of your feelings you will not think about blushing, and if you do blush a little, remember that most people don’t even notice or even care about it. Remember all the skills you learned from early childhood, some things seemed like you would never be able to master them, but you did in the end because you were persistent. Training yourself not to be so shy will also take persistence, but you will be well rewarded by feeling the exhilaration of being able to face strangers with self confidence, knowing that you no longer fear blushing in public.

Book excerpt: For most of us, blushing when were embarrassed or anxious is a common occurrence. But for those who suffer from a stronger type of blushing, or blush more easily, also known as pathological blushing, this abnormal facial reddening can become physically and psychologically tormenting. In When Blushing Hurts, author and noted psychiatrist Dr. Enrique Jadresic offers hope for those who experience this condition. He examines blushing from the dual perspective of the healer and the healed, offering inspired testimonies of patients who sought medical help and successfully overcame their pathological blushing. Backed by scientific fact, Jadresic explores the delicate balance of human emotion and how it affects our physical responses. In addition, Jadresic discusses options for treatment, including drug therapy, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and even surgery. In this second edition, Jadresic updates the understanding of those who seek medical help for blushing in light of research thats evolved in recent years. He shares new testimonies and offers fresh information on previously published cases. Praise for When Blushing Hurts, First Edition Dr. Jadresics book, which is both meticulous and heartfelt, contributes greatly towards sharing information on and furthering an understanding of a disorder that is medically benign but psychologically tormenting, and orients the physician and the layman on the treatment possibilities offered by medicine today. Alejandro Goic, MD, President, Chilean Medical Academy While reading When Blushing Hurts, I once again admired Dr. Jadresics expository talent, his elegant, poetic pen, his thoughtful honesty, and his clinical ability.

Download or read book Hyperhidrosis written by Marcelo de Paula Loureiro and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-12 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hyperhidrosis is a medical condition in which a person sweats excessively and unpredictably. People with hyperhidrosis may sweat even when the temperature is cool or when they are at rest. Despite prevalence of at least 1% of the global population, Hyperhidrosis is still an unknown entity, for the most part -- an undertreated and even neglected medical condition. Moreover, there are few sources summarizing the knowledge on hyperhidrosis to a wider audience. The purpose of this book is to provide information regarding hyperhidrosis, ranging from basic information on pathophysiology to the most advanced therapeutic alternatives. From a therapeutic perspective, hyperhidrosis requires clinical treatment using topical and subdermal agents as well as surgical approaches. The book will not only cover these topics but will discuss all aspects of care -- from patient selection through post-surgical complications. Special attention will be given to sympathectomies. Medical and paramedical professionals, as well as students and researchers, interested in the topic will find the book comprehensive in scope and targeted in offering practical, clinical guidance. Diagnosis and Treatment of Hyperhidrosis - A Complete Guide counts with the collaboration of most renowned specialists of this field, and is intended as an easy to read and very practical reference book.
Download or read book A Thesaurus of English Word Roots written by Horace Gerald Danner and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-03-27 with total page 1007 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horace G. Danner’s A Thesaurus of English Word Roots is a compendium of the most-used word roots of the English language. As Timothy B. Noone notes in his foreword: “Dr. Danner’s book allows you not only to build up your passive English vocabulary, resulting in word recognition knowledge, but also gives you the rudiments for developing your active English vocabulary, making it possible to infer the meaning of words with which you are not yet acquainted. Your knowledge can now expand and will do so exponentially as your awareness of the roots in English words and your corresponding ability to decode unfamiliar words grows apace. This is the beginning of a fine mental linguistic library: so enjoy!” In A Thesaurus of English Word Roots, all word roots are listed alphabetically, along with the Greek or Latin words from which they derive, together with the roots’ original meanings. If the current meaning of an individual root differs from the original meaning, that is listed in a separate column. In the examples column, the words which contain the root are then listed, starting with their prefixes, for example, dysacousia, hyperacousia. These root-starting terms then are followed by terms where the root falls behind the word, e.g., acouesthesia and acoumeter. These words are followed by words where the root falls in the middle or the end, as in such terms as bradyacusia and odynacusis.. In this manner, A Thesaurus of English Word Roots places the word in as many word families as there are elements in the word. This work will interest linguists and philologists and anyone interested in the etymological aspects of English language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Classic Edition of On the Theory and Therapy of Mental Disorders: An Introduction to Logotherapy and Existential Analysis sees Viktor E.

DuBois’ translation of Frankl’s Theorie und Therapie der Neurosen allows English readers to experience this essential text on logotherapy in an invigorating new light. DuBois also provides a new Preface to the book, highlighting the importance of both the original volume and Frankl’s work at large, and framing it within contemporary psychotherapy and psychoanalysis. Throughout the book, Frankl uses his unique logotherapeutic approach to analyse neuroses and their impact. He looks in turn at how neuroses may be informed by psychoses, somatic disorders, and the mental implications of being diagnosed with a physical medical condition, as well as potential psychological, spiritual, and societal causes of neuroses. Masterfully translated and thoroughly annotated, this volume brings Frankl’s trailblazing theories into the 21st century and will be of great interest to psychiatrists and psychotherapists alike.
