Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finally take control of your anxiety without medication so your anxiety stops controlling you! Per the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), anxiety affects over 2 billion adults worldwide and over 97 million in the United States alone, of which an estimated 54% of these are women. ​ The Journal of Clinical Psychiatry stated that anxiety treatment costs are over $42 billion per year in the United States. Of this, $23 billion is for repetitive healthcare services due to symptoms which mimic physical illnesses, such as heart attacks. Compared to non-anxious individuals, those with an anxiety disorder are 5X more likely to go to the doctor, and 6X more likely to be hospitalized for psychiatric disorders. Currently, anxiety is the #1 mental health concern in North America. Each year, more than 4 billion prescriptions are filled in the United States alone, of which Paxil and Zoloft are two of the top prescribed medications. Due to lack of medical insurance or funds, many people self-medicate with street drugs and / or alcohol. In fact, 42% of those who struggle with anxiety use recreational drugs. There are many forms of anxiety, of which each affects millions of people:​ Generalized Anxiety Disorder: 6.8 million, in which women are 2X more likely to be afflicted with than men. Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: 2.2 million, which is equally common in both men and women. Panic Disorder: 6 million, in which women are 2X more likely to be afflicted with than men. This often co-exists with depression. Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): 7.7 million, in which women are more afflicted. Social Anxiety Disorder: 15 million, which is equally common in both men and women. If you answer "yes" to most items on the included questionnaire, it's likely you could be clinically-diagnosed with anxiety. ​ The bad news is that symptoms don't disappear when ignored. The good news is that with the right help you can regain control of your life, enjoy more fulfilling relationships, find your authenticity, reconnect with your passions, reach goals, express yourself more freely, experience more stable work environments, increase your academic success, break free from addictions, and even have strong spirituality. And that is why this book exists.

Download or read book Girl Behind the Fence Depression written by Mozelle Martin, Ph.D. and published by Mozelle Martin Press. This book was released on 2019-10-27 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You no longer have to beone of over 300 million people struggling with depression. Depression affects over 18 million adults in the United States alone, and over 300 million worldwide. Yet many people are too embarrassed to seek help, tell themselves they are over-reacting, or don't know that depression is considered a serious medical disorder of the brain. In fact, under the umbrella of depression there are also other diagnoses such as: bipolar disorder, postpartum depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. The National Institute of Mental Health shared these shocking statistics: Because of depression, workers miss a combined total of 490 million work days per year which causes a combined annual economic loss for businesses of over $100 billion. Bipolar Disorder affects 6.3 million people in the United States alone. Depression is the leading cause of suicide - with one person dying by suicide every 13 minutes. Postpartum Depression affects 15% of new mothers within a month of delivering their baby. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)affects 8 million adults each year. Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death with an average of 1,400,000 suicide attempts each year which is an average of 3,600 people attempting to end their life each day. The World Health Organization (WHO) rates severe depression in the same disability category as terminal cancer, stating that depression is the # 1 cause of disability for ages 15 - 44. While it's important to understand that everybody feels down at times, if your "down days" interrupt yourself-care, relationships, or career, you are likely depressed. The more you answer "yes" to the included questionnaire, the more likely you could be clinically diagnosed with depression. Therefore, inside of this book are the stories of women from around the world who have struggled with depression, just like you. Their personal stories, tips, and tools may be just what you need to help conquer the "down days".

Download or read book Girl Behind the Fence Loneliness written by Mozelle Martin, Ph.D. and published by Mozelle Martin Press. This book was released on 2018-03-01 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 42 million adults struggle with chronic loneliness, if you are one of them, this book will offer you some instant relief! As of 2017, approximately 42.6 million adults over age 45 struggle with feelings of chronic loneliness. Twenty-five percent of the population lives alone, and over 50% of the population is unmarried. Results from a recent study of 300,000 participants prove that individuals with weak or non-existent social connections actually increase their risk of early death by up to 50%. As a result of these shocking statistics, more social outreach programs have been put in place to help conquer this nearly-imminent worldwide loneliness epidemic. Since life began, we have had a strong sense of belonging. Whether to a small family or a large community group, this fundamental need powerfully affects our mental and physical health. However, even if we interact with co-workers all day, surround ourselves with a large family, and are in a decades-long marriage, we can still feel very alone. With the click of a button or the help of social media, within seconds we are provided with more opportunities than ever before; among these opportunities are thousands of ways to connect to fellow human beings. Logically we know that reaching out for help is key in combatting this deep and pervasive feeling, yet we don't do it. Why? Typically, we dislike admitting to ourselves and others that we feel lonely for fear we may appear unlikeable and vulnerable. Moreover, we have been conditioned as a society to not show our feelings. Instead, we try to ignore our uncomfortable thoughts and emotions, hoping they will go away on their own. They usually don't. Consequently, we feel anxious and rejected as if a fence separates us from the popular crowd, thereby allowing us to secretly obsess over our perceived defects. Despite all of us having an innate need to connect with our fellow humans, the degree of that need varies. For example, you may feel lonely when not around other people. On the other hand, I may feel completely exhausted when I am. Yet, despite our individual differences, our DNA strands are programmed to satisfy our need for belonging, whatever our unique need is. Perhaps you feel that you are not really lonely, just socially selective. Find out via the included questionnaire. Then, to help you combat loneliness, the personal insights from these authors will help provide you with hope and inspiration; the tools they used to guide themselves out of the emotional quicksand and just may be the life jacket you've been searching for. Whether down the street or across the world, you are truly never alone because also inside of this book, are the ways in which you can reach out to each author individually for continued support.

Download or read book Fierce Marriage written by Ryan Frederick and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ryan and Selena Frederick were newlyweds when they landed in Switzerland to pursue Selena's dream of training horses. Neither of them knew at the time that Ryan was living out a death sentence brought on by a worsening genetic heart defect. Soon it became clear he needed major surgery that could either save his life--or result in his death on the operating table. The young couple prepared for the worst. When Ryan survived, they both realized that they still had a future together. But the near loss changed the way they saw all that would lie ahead. They would live and love fiercely, fighting for each other and for a Christ-centered marriage, every step of the way. Fierce Marriage is their story, but more than that, it is a call for married couples to put God first in their relationship, to measure everything they do and say to each other against what Christ did for them, and to see marriage not just as a relationship they should try to keep healthy but also as one worth fighting for in every situation. With the gospel as their foundation, Ryan and Selena offer hope and practical help for common struggles in marriage, including communication problems, sexual frustration, financial stress, family tension, screen-time disconnection, and unrealistic expectations.
