What is the Best Way to Help Someone Who is Depressed?

                                                                                                 UNIT 14- PROBLEM- SOLUTION 2

                 Depression is not only a state of being sad, it is a disease that conquers the ability to feel emotion, whether good or bad, whatsoever. Depression not only involves the mind, it also involves the body and thoughts. In different cultures some complain of excessive headaches and extreme pain and this is identified as depression, moderate or otherwise. 

            This disease can be passed down through genes or can follow external events or can be caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain. Depression affects twenty percent of all Americans, some without even knowing it, at sometime during their lives. Depression is not a disease that only influences males or children of the age three to eleven. 

        Every human being is prone to depression. Although women are three times more likely to become depressed than men, men are five times more likely to commit suicide when depressed than women. Some think that women have a less pleasing social role and their hormones make them more susceptible to depression. Men are more subject to keep their emotions bottled up inside of them because of their role in society and that they do not have the society’s permission to express their feelings openly.

      Although all age groups are open to depression, teenagers are the most common to be heard of being affected by the disease. This is probably because of peer pressure and the changes in their life. Although the rate of suicide as a whole has decreased in the past twenty five years, the fixed amount of suicide from those between fifteen and nineteen has sky rocketed and quadrupled. The number of deaths due to suicide each year is roughly the same number of deaths from AIDS.

       Sometimes depression can be avoided all together. Having a good home life and a high self-esteem would be primary for people not to be depressed. Although in some cases you are predisposition to have depression, little things do help. Talking about your problems and not bottling them up helps immensely to avoid emotional breakdowns and blowups. Avoiding extreme “stressers,” like putting yourself in a situation you cannot get out of, also helps. Avoidance of cigarettes and alcohol also helps with staying healthy and happy.

       If medication does not work there is also another way to overcome depression, which is electroconvulsive therapy. In this therapy a low voltage current is moved through the brain for one to two seconds at a time to produce a controlled seizure. Although electroconvulsive therapy can be dangerous and cause memory loss or disorientation is proves to help those in need of it.

       Depression is not a matter to take lightly. It is not something to dismiss regularly, but to take to heart and find help. Hundreds of people commit suicide each day because of depression. If you are or know someone who is depressed get help. Do not hold it in forever, for you may be liable to do the same thing.

How Can Social Media Bullying Be Prevented?

UNIT 12- CLASSIFICATION AND DEFINITION 2

           The internet is used in several ways. It is used for research, entertainment, communication, and so much more. With the rise of the internet, there is also a rise in online problems. A common problem online is cyber bullying. Cyber bullying is the act of insulting, harassing, threatening or bad mouthing a person or a group of people online. It can lower a person’s self-esteem or worse, it can cause that person to commit suicide. Cyber bullying usually happens in chat rooms and social networking sites. 

              One way of avoiding cyber bullying is by keeping your personal information private. A person is more likely to be a victim of cyber bullying if his or her information is available to the public. It is important to only share personal information to those people whom you really know.

          Another way of avoiding cyber bullying is by the “Stop, block and tell” method. Once you realize that you are becoming a victim of cyber bullying, stop it before it worsens. Block the cyber bully and tell an adult about it or, if it a threat to your life, inform the authorities .

         Cyber bullying can also be avoided by googling yourself. Search yourself in any search engines of the internet once in a while to see if there are information about you, may it be true or not, that are exposed and can be seen by other. The internet is a big world so once an information about you is publicized, it can travel to places.

     Cyber bullying can be harmless fun but it can turn into a serious problem if not controlled. As users of the internet, you should be sensitive to the feelings of others and not do anything foolish in the internet that can ruin a person’s reputation. It is also not enough to just avoid cyber bulling. You must prevent it too by not patronizing hate sites and stopping it at once.

      Conclusion, technologies and social networks are a good tool when the use is appropriate and correct, if used responsibly and with the desire to hurt, offend or criticize someone or what they do or have done, either by mistake or without thinking in the consequences of their actions.
