  When do you become an adult? What does it mean to grow up? And what are the experiences that propel us forward ? or keep us stuck? 
   
  As we get older, we pass many milestones, but for some of us it can feel as if adulthood is always just out of reach. 
   
  Journalist and psychotherapist-in-training Moya Sarner goes on a journey into what growing up really involves, and how we do it again and again throughout our lives. She draws on case studies, as well as her training, and theories of child psychology, psychoanalysis, neuroscience, and more, to explore what it means to be a ‘grown up’ and how we can meet the challenges and opportunities of every stage of our lives.

  Psychological Trauma -...

  Psychological trauma refers to the emotional, mental, and psychological injury that results from an overwhelming or distressing event. Unlike physical trauma, which can often be seen and treated directly, psychological trauma is more subtle, affecting the mind and emotions in profound ways. It can arise from various experiences, such as accidents, violence, abuse, loss, or even long-term stressors. The effects of trauma are far-reaching and can impact an individual’s life for many years, manifesting in different forms depending on the person’s resilience, support system, and coping mechanisms. 
  At its core, trauma can alter an individual's perception of the world, themselves, and their relationships. It often creates a sense of helplessness, loss of control, and an inability to feel safe or secure. The distress from trauma can be so severe that it leads to lasting mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and other emotional disorders. Understanding the nature of psychological trauma involves recognizing how these experiences affect the brain and the body. Trauma is not merely an emotional reaction; it is a complex response involving neurological, biological, and psychological processes. The brain’s response to trauma can involve changes in brain structures and functions, particularly in areas like the amygdala (responsible for processing emotions) and the hippocampus (which processes memories). These changes can result in heightened fear responses, emotional instability, and difficulty processing memories related to the traumatic event. 
  Furthermore, trauma is often misunderstood or underestimated due to the invisible nature of its impact. While a broken bone is easily visible and can be treated, the effects of trauma are not always immediately apparent.

  From Passion To Peace or The...

  A fascinating mix of Christian, Buddhist, and Daoist thought presented by the original self-help guru in 1910. As Lily L Allen put it, "all his works [are] eminently practical. He never wrote theories, or for the sake of writing; but he wrote when he had a message, and it became a message only when he had lived it out in his own life, and knew that it was good. Thus he wrote facts, which he had proven by practice. "Born in Leicester, UK, to an illiterate mother in 1864, Allen's father left when he was 15 to find work in America, and was promptly murdered on arrival. After leaving school and finding work as a clerk,  Allen's writing career lasted for only a decade, from 1902-1912. In that time he wrote nineteen books about how to recognise and live the divine and virtuous life, deeply informed by both Jesus and Buddha. As he puts it in this book,"To have transcendent virtue is to enjoy transcendent felicity. The beatific blessedness which Jesus holds out is promised to those having the beatific virtues—to the merciful, the pure in heart, the peacemakers, and so on. The higher virtue does not merely and only lead to happiness, it is happiness. It is impossible for a man of transcendent virtue to be unhappy. The cause of unhappiness must be sought and found in the self-loving elements, and not in the self-sacrificing qualities. A man may have virtue, and be unhappy, but not so if he have divine virtue. Human virtue is mingled with self, and therefore with sorrow; but from divine virtue every taint of self has been purged away, and with it every vestige of misery. "

  Schizophrenia - Coping with...

  Schizophrenia is a complex and often misunderstood mental health disorder that affects a person’s thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It is characterized by episodes of psychosis, which can include hallucinations, delusions, disorganized thinking, and impaired social functioning. While schizophrenia is a chronic condition, with proper treatment and support, many individuals can manage their symptoms and lead fulfilling lives. 
  Schizophrenia does not manifest in the same way for everyone. Some individuals may experience severe and persistent symptoms, while others may have periods of stability with occasional relapses. The disorder typically emerges in late adolescence or early adulthood, although it can develop later in life. Early detection and intervention are crucial in improving long-term outcomes. 
  There are several subtypes of schizophrenia, each presenting with different symptom patterns. Paranoid schizophrenia, once considered a distinct type, involves intense delusions and auditory hallucinations, often revolving around themes of persecution. Disorganized schizophrenia is marked by disorganized speech, erratic behavior, and difficulty with daily activities. Catatonic schizophrenia presents with extreme motor disturbances, including periods of excessive movement or complete immobility. While these classifications have evolved in recent psychiatric frameworks, they still help in understanding the diverse ways schizophrenia can manifest.
