What is depression 

Don’t forget to thank this post if you like it While we all feel sad, moody or low from time to time, some people experience these feelings intensely, for long periods of time (weeks, months or even years) and sometimes without any apparent reason. Depression is more than just a low mood – it's a serious condition that affects your physical and mental health. Signs and symptoms  You may be depressed if, for more than two weeks, you've felt sad, down or miserable most of the time, or have lost interest or pleasure in usual activities, and have also experienced several of the signs and symptoms across at least three of the categories below.

What is mental health 

Don’t forget to thank this post if you liked it. It’s an expression we use every day, so it might surprise you that the term ‘mental health’ is frequently misunderstood. ‘Mental health’ is often used as a substitute for mental health conditions – such as depression, anxiety conditions, schizophrenia, and others. According to the World Health Organization, however, mental health is “a state of well-being in which every individual realises his or her own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to her or his community.” So rather than being about ‘what’s the problem?’ it’s...

10 amazing facts about the ocean 

Don’t forget to thank this post if you like it  1. Our oceans cover more than 70 per cent of the Earth’s surface. With so much of the Earth’s surface taken up by ocean, it’s evident how vital these marine environments are to the planet, and how much there still is to be explored. 2. The majority of life on Earth is aquatic. As so much of the Earth’s surface is underwater, it comes as no surprise that marine species outnumber those on land. But, it’s an incredible 94 per cent of the Earth’s living species that exist within the oceans. 3. Less than five per cent of the planet’s oceans have been explored. According to the Ocean Service, man has explored less than five per...

Growing Knowledge in Space

Please thank this post if you like it: Plants are critical in supporting life on Earth, and with help from an experiment that flew onboard space shuttle Discovery's STS-131 mission, they also could transform living in space.  NASA's Kennedy Space Center partnered with the University of Florida, Miami University in Ohio and Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation to perform three different experiments in microgravity. The studies concentrated on the effects microgravity has on plant cell walls, root growth patterns and gene regulation within the plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Each of the studies has future applications on Earth and in space exploration.  "Any research in plant biology helps NASA...

My Life Objective: To Learn

okay so, I know the typical, “We don’t go to school to learn nowadays, we just go to pass” and all that sad truth stuff.  But honestly? I don’t feel that way. Well there are really brief moments where I think, “Is this really enough?Is this worth all the suffering?” but I’ll be immediately like, “what the hell?”  I’m able to learn this stuff? Free knowledge so I can like? Be able to throw random facts? and I think it’s really useful when youre sad or when youre having an existential crisis. Because knowledge about the little stuff about the world makes it more interesting?  *trigger warning: suicide* Let’s say, I wanna kill myself? I think, why? and waste all...
