Severe Headaches or Migraines. A Warning Sign.
Migraines or headaches are one of the most common disorders of the nervous system, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO).
We are going to note the following:
1.- Tension Headache.
It is the most frequent headache commonly suffered by women at any age, it is described as a ‘crushing headache’, that starts as a light pain which can progress to moderate pain, and can appear in women before or after menstruation and during stressful periods. The majority of migraines fall under this category.
2.- Migraine or Headache.
It is a headache, usually located in one half of the head, and it is almost always coupled with eye watering. Light sensibility, vomiting, etc. can accompany the pain, which can last hours or even days and that worsens through exercise. It is most commonly found in young women and a family history is mostly present.
3.- Cluster Headache.
Most commonly suffered by young men, it also falls into the category of migraines; they do not last long and can be repeated throughout the day and the years. It is centred in one half of the head, including the eye of the affected side of the head.
4.- Sinusitis.
The symptoms that would set them apart from other types of migraines would be:
• The presence of a prior infection.
• An increase of pain after probing the frontal sinuses.
(on top of the eyebrows and the cheeks).
• If the person has a fever.
• If the pain increases when it goes down to the head.
It is very important to know that if it were coupled with inflammation in the eye bags, then it would be a complication named ‘Orbital Cellulitis’ which is a medical emergency. This symptom has to always be taken into account when it comes to children.
5.- Hypertension.
I would like to note that the headache that emerges in people that suffer from hypertension, eventhough no symptoms are present most of the time for this pathology, there are other instances whereby severe headaches throughout the head or centered in the neck; a hypertensive crisis is sometimes denoted but in the other occasions, it can be the symptom that is masked via the continued intake of painkillers.
Migraines are an important pathology that comprises of an extensive field of exploration, because of that it is essential to complete a correct diagnosis so that a suitable treatment is put in place.

Take a bite out of a forbidden fruit
Little evidence supports the effectiveness of certain foods, but there’s no harm in experimenting.
Figs, bananas, and avocados, for example, are considered libido-boosting foods, known as aphrodisiacs.
But these foods also provide important vitamins and minerals that can increase blood flow to the genitals and promote a healthy sex life.

Indulge in all things chocolate
Throughout history, chocolate has been a symbol of desire. Not just because of its delicious taste, but because of its power to improve sexual pleasure.
According to one study, chocolate promotes the release of phenylethylamine and serotonin into your body. This can produce some aphrodisiac and mood-lifting effects.
According to another study, the effects of chocolate on sexuality are probably more psychological than biological.

Take your daily herbs
Next time you decide to sit down for a romantic dinner, add a little basil or garlic to your dish. The smell of basil stimulates the senses. Garlic contains high levels of allicin, and increases blood flow.
These effects may help men with erectile dysfunction.
Ginkgo biloba, an extract derived from the leaf of the Chinese ginkgo tree, is another herb found to treat antidepressant-induced sexual dysfunction.

Take a tip from Africa
Yohimbine, an alkaloid found in the bark of the West African evergreen, has been known to work as as a natural Viagra.
Some studies suggest that Yohimbine bark can help you maintain an erection. It will also enhance the quality of an erection. However, researchers say there is no natural equivalent to match Viagra.
6 of 12
Boost your self-confidence
The way you feel about your body affects the way you feel about sex. An unhealthy diet and lack of exercise may cause you to have a poor self-image. These things can discourage you from having and enjoying sex.
You can boost your self-esteem and your sex drive by shifting the focus from your flaws to your attributes. You can also focus on the pleasure experienced during sex.
7 of 12
Stick to one glass of wine
Two glasses of wine might be one too many. Drinking one glass of wine can put you at ease and increase your interest in becoming intimate. But too much alcohol can ruin your ability to perform by affecting erectile function. Too much alcohol can also inhibit your ability to orgasm.
8 of 12
Take time to meditate and relieve stress
No matter how healthy you are, being stressed out is going to affect your sex drive. Women are particularly susceptible to the effects stress can have on one’s sex life.
Men, on the other hand, sometimes use sex to relieve stress. And sometimes differences in the approach to sex may cause conflict.
To relieve stress, participate in sports activities, practice tai chi, or take a yoga class.
9 of 12
Hit the snooze button
Those with a hectic lifestyle don’t always have the time to get the right amount of sleep. Being busy also makes it difficult to make time for a sex.
People who balance work with caring for aging parents or young children are often left exhausted, which can lead to a reduced sex drive.
Boost your energy and sex drive by taking naps when you can and eating a healthy diet high in protein and low in carbohydrates.
10 of 12
Keep your relationship in check
After you’ve had an argument with your partner, chances are you’re not in the mood to have sex. For women, sensing emotional closeness is important to sexual intimacy. That means unresolved conflicts can affect your sexual relationship.
Communication is essential for building trust. It’s important to prevent resentments from building up.
11 of 12
Consult a doctor
Even if you’re taking a natural approach to boosting your sex drive, it still might be a good idea to talk with your doctor. They can help you identify underlying problems.
Your doctor may suggest some strategies for enhancing sexual health. These may include communicating with your partner, making healthy lifestyle choices, and treating underlying medical conditions. Knowing the root of the problem affecting your sex life will make it easier to find a solution.
12 of 12
Trial and error
There are a variety of different approaches that may enhance your sex drive naturally. However, it is important to remember that every couple is different. It may take a little experimentation to find out what works best for you.
If you do decide to turn to prescription drugs, remember that desire is at the core of sex. It’s important to remember that little blue pill may not be the answer if emotional issues are affecting your libido.

Eating Disorders: How is your eating habit?
There are three main types of eating disorders:
Anorexia (also known as anorexia nervosa) is the name for simply starving yourself because you are convinced you are overweight. If you are at least 15 percent under your normal body weight and you are losing weight through not eating, you may be suffering from this disorder.
A person who suffers from this disorder can have it go undetected for years, because the person's body weight will often remain normal. "Binging" and "purging" behavior is often done in secret and with a great deal of shame attached to the behavior. It is also the more common eating disorder.
Eating disorders are serious problems and need to be diagnosed and treated like any medical disease. If they continue to go untreated, these behaviors can result in future severe medical complications that can be life-threatening.
Treatment of eating disorders nearly always includes cognitive-behavioral or group psychotherapy. Medications may also be appropriate and have been found effective in the treatment of these disorders, when combined with psychotherapy.
If you believe you may be suffering from an eating disorder or know someone who is, please get help. Once properly diagnosed by a mental health professional, such disorders are readily treatable and often cured within a few months' time.
A person with an eating disorder should not be blamed for having it! The disorders are caused by a complex interaction of social, biological and psychological factors which bring about the harmful behaviors. The important thing is to stop as soon as you recognize these behaviors in yourself, or to get help to begin the road to recovery.
Top 10 Signs of Schizophrenia
Top 10 Signs of Schizophrenia
Not everyone who has schizophrenia experiences every symptom. Some people experience a few symptoms, some many. The severity of symptoms varies with individuals and also varies over time.
- Delusions (believing things that are not true)
- Hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that are not there)
- Disorganized thinking (can’t keep thoughts ordered)
- Disorganized speech (e.g., frequent derailment of the conversation, loose associations, or talking incoherently)
- Agitation
- Grossly disorganized or catatonic behavior (e.g., childlike “silliness,” resisting simple instructions, odd or rigid posture, repeated movements that serve no purpose)
- Lack of drive or initiative
- Social withdrawal
- Apathy
- Emotional unresponsiveness or lack of emotional expression
The resulting behaviors may seem bizarre to the casual observer, even though they may be consistent with the person suffering from schizophrenia’s internal perceptions and beliefs.
It is rarely helpful to challenge a person who has schizophrenia’s beliefs or hallucinations directly, since they may make a kind of sense to the person. Instead, a person should be seen professionally for treatment of this condition. Modern treatment for schizophrenia includes both medications and psychotherapy.
