Positive thinking....and tips to be positive


       "A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty........."  what is this??
 who is a pessimist? who is an optimist? what is the relation for positive thinking and this quote???
  
       Come on we will see the relation now.......a PESSIMIST , the person who lacks his confidence in every aspect ...an optimist is a person who has full of confidence in every aspect..........

 let us see a live example here.....
                     
                        Once there is a student who is very intelligent and his teacher used to praise him daily and that teacher used to motivate other students by saying about this intelligent boy..... he is habituated with such praising by his teacher that was going on daily...and he started thinking in such a way that no one can do him anything..i.e, no one can reach him in studies and then became very proud.One fine day the teacher recognizes this boy that he became proud and she stopped praising this boy and now the boy is not at all happy at the teacher...but still he is proud and the exams came closer.This boy is thinking in such a way that he knows every thing and didnt read....and finally his rank was gone.then the teacher started praising that boy who got 1st this time....
this boy became very aggressive  and  was very angry with the teacher...again 2nd time also some other boy will get the 1st rank...this continues and his position gets degraded day by day...then one he started thinking that " why is this teacher not saying about me?   what is the mistake i did? why am i getting less marks? why am i unable to read?" then he started thinking positively that i can get my rank again and didnt think of anything and put all his efforts to be as him....then he again succeeded ....thus positive thinking is our weapon....it is one of the main qualities to get succeeded in our life.......

..psychology of a person who is lying........

It's very difficult to know that someone is lying...some people can lie very easily just like they tell truth.But you should be able to understand whether the person with whom you are talking is telling you the truth or he is lying..else you will be cheated by anyone easily....so ,to avoid that here are some tips to recognize such a type of people...
    Mainly knowledge of body language is very much important to notice that a person is lying..
  • The person is quite confused while talking..when he/she is lying,he/she is thinking about excuses at the same time.It distracts his/her attention from the conversation..
  • You will notice that the person avoids the eye contact.His /her eyes may be more frequently blinking or moving around the room.It indicates uncomfortable mental condition of the person...
  • If you observe carefully the liar's body language,you will notice that it is like a form of self-protection(i.e we can notice some actions such as stepping back,tightening the knuckles etc)
  •  Excessive friendliness can be the most important sign of lying..The liar wants to pretend that he/she is your true friend .so that you will start believing him/her....
  • Sometimes ,the liar shows contradictory behavior...He/she wants to say 'no' ,but nods 'yes'...It is a type of subconscious movement...
  • When a person tries to change the topic ,then this is also very important sign of a liar...
  • If you ask them a question ,they will step on to the another question instead of responding to the question given to them directly....
  • Liars mainly use over formal speech...i.e they even pretend to be over honest...
  • They attempt to justify every detail with lengthy explanations...
  • Repeats the protests of innocence....

PSYCHOLOGY....

     " PSYCHOLOGY" - study or science of an individual's mind and behavior.....
        Basically everyone know about a PSYCHOLOGIST i.e he is the one who is professionally strong in this study......
     Human psychology has a holistic approach about the human existence based on the concepts of meaning,values,personal responsibilities,self-actualization,tragedy,satisfaction,etc i.e., basic human feelings in other words......


....In the present generation , main reason for psychological imbalances in a human being is "ADDICTION
            Wat is addiction???
                      why is this a main reason for psychological effects in human???????
 yeah!coming to the same point .....consider a student only.... ,
                     they are getting addicted to some habits ...i.e they are not even in a position to control their mindset such a bad situation came to this generation ...so to change their mental status i.e to make him/her control themselves i.e control their mind,feelings,behavior etc, the professionals of this science give the counselling and this brings a drastic change in them....




.......All the thoughts that is going in this brain, is nothing but human psychological factors.......


 The next main reason for the psychological imbalances is                                  "EMOTIONS"
             We all are favor of the feeling "emotion"
      but do v all know what is emotion?? 
                                                  can we define it???
                     just try it.....
 

if not lets see what is this emotion.....
         

        "Emotion" is often defined as a complex state of feeling that results in physical and psychological changes that influence thought and behavior....
       "Emotionality" is associated with a range of psychological phenomena including  temperament,personality,mood and motivation..


       Human emotion involves "...physiological arousal,expressive behaviors,conscious experience..."


These are some of the emotions of humans...such as angry,frustration etc



PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDERS:
                             ranges from post traumatic stress syndrome to common phobias....


  1.schizophrenia:
                  it is a mental disorder characterized by a disintegration of the process of thinking and of emotional responsiveness.....
           It most commonly manifests as auditory hallucinationsparanoid or bizarre delusions, or disorganized speech and thinking, and it is accompanied by significant social or occupational dysfunction. The onset of symptoms typically occurs in young adulthood, with a global lifetime prevalence of around 0.3–0.7%.
           Diagnosis is based on the patient's self-reported experiences and observed behavior.


  2.depression:
              it is a state of low mood and aversion to activity that can affect a person's thoughts, behavior, feelings and physical well-being.
             Depressed people may feel sad, anxious, empty, hopeless, helpless, worthless, guilty, irritable, or restless. They may lose interest in activities that once were pleasurable, experience overeating or loss of appetite, or problems concentrating, remembering details or making decisions; and may contemplate or attempt suicide.



                                                                                                         3.Post traumatic stress disorder:   [known as PTSD]                It is a severe anxiety disorder that can develop after exposure to any event that   results in psychological trauma. 
This event may involve the threat of death to oneself or to someone else, or to one's own or someone else's physical, sexual, or psychological integrity,overwhelming the individual's ability to cope. As an effect of psychological trauma, PTSD is less frequent and more enduring than the more commonly seen acute stress response........


All the above disorders are the main disorders of psychology and the treatment for these vil be given by the counselling in maximum by observing the person for certain period of time...if possible treatment can also be done by using medicines......

TREATMENTS FOR PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDERS:
Psychotherapy: it refers to all the diverse approaches used in the treatment of mental disorder and psychological problems.....many different treatment methods are used and experts estimate that there may be over 400 different approaches to treatment can be classified into three major categories....

  • Insight therapies
  • Behavior therapies
  • Bio-medical therapies                                                                                 
INSIGHT THERAPIES: it is a "talk therapy" which involves pursuing increased insight regarding the nature of the client's difficulty and sorting through possible solutions.... 

Psychoanalysis: insight therapies involve verbal interactions intended to enhance client's self knowledge and thus promote healthful changes in personality and behavior...
psychoanalysis is an insight therapy that emphasizes the recovery of unconscious conflicts,motives and defenses through a variety of techniques..


Client centered therapy: It is an insight therapy that emphasizes providing a supportive emotional climate for the clients who play a major role in determining the pace and direction of their therapy..


BEHAVIOR THERAPIES:This involves the applications of learning principles to direct efforts to change client's maladaptive behaviors....and learning adaptive behaviors..
Aversion therapy: It is the most controversial of the behavior therapies ,where an aversive stimulus is paired with the stimulus that elicits an undesirable response....
eg: alcoholism,smoking etc

Cognitive behaviorial therapy: 

             seeks to help the patient overcome difficulties
 by identifying and changing dysfunctional thinking,
 behavior, and emotional responses. This involves
 helping patients develop skills for modifying beliefs, identifying distorted thinking, relating to others in
different ways, and changing behaviors... 

Treatment is based on collaboration between
patient and therapist and on testing beliefs. Therapy
 may consist of testing the assumptions which one
makes and identifying how certain of one's usually-unquestioned thoughts are distorted, unrealistic and unhelpful.
 Once those thoughts have been challenged, one's
 feelings about the subject matter of those thoughts
are more easily subject to change. Beck initially 
focused on depression and developed a list of
 "errors" in thinking that he proposed could maintain depression, including arbitrary inference
selective abstraction, over-generalization, and magnification (of negatives) and minimization (of positives).




BIO-MEDICAL THERAPIES:

Biomedical therapy includes
Psychopharmacology,    Electroconvulsive
 Treatment (ECT)
, and Psychosurgery....



Psychopharmacology involves the use of medication
 to treat disorders.  It is the most common form of biomedical therapy.  It is used for emotional, 
behavioral and mental disorders and benefits many patients.  Drug treatment is often combined with psychotherapy.
Physicians prescribe different drugs based on the
 nature of the problem and the patient's medical
 history.  Drug types include Antipsychotic drugs
 (such as Thorazine), Antianxiety drugs (Valium, 
alcohol), and Antidepressant Drugs (Tofranil, prozac, lithium)...

Electroconvulsive treatment (ECT) is used only for
 cases of major depression, delusions and 
hallucinations, or life-threatening sleep and
 eating disorders that cannot be effectively treated
 with drugs. Modern methods of administering ECT 
employ low "doses" of electric shock to the brain 
along with sedatives and relaxants to minimize the unpleasantness to patients.  60-90% of ECT patients
 show rapid improvement....

Psychosurgery is a rare, last resort treatment when psychotherapy and psychopharmacology have failed.
  This surgery consists of surgical destruction of neural pathways in the brain.  One example of this type of 
surgery is a cingulotomy, which involves severing the pathway from the frontal lobe to the basal 
ganglia regions, called the cingulate pathway, of the brain.....
