MotherBaby heart & Cell Connection

“During pregnancy, some baby cells migrate into the mother’s bloodstream and then return to the child. It’s called “mother-fetal microchimerism”.

For 41 weeks, the cells mix and circulate back and forth, and, after baby is born, many of these cells remain in the mother’s body, leaving permanent imprint in the mother’s tissues, bones, brain and skin, and often staying there for decades.

Every other child a mother has will leave a similar imprint on her body.

Even if a pregnancy doesn’t end, or if you have an abortion, these cells still migrate into the bloodstream.

Research has shown that if a mother’s heart is injured, fetal cells will rush to the injury site, and transform into different types of cells that specialize in repairing the heart.

The child helps the mother repair, while the mother builds the child.

This is often the reason why some diseases fade away during pregnancy.

It’s amazing how the mother’s body protects the baby at all costs, and the baby protects and rebuilds the mother in return, so they can safely develop and survive.

Let’s think about pregnancy cravings for a moment. What did the mother need, that the child make her wish?

The studies also showed the presence of fetal cells in her mother’s brain 18 years after birth.

How wonderful is this? ”

News misconceptions abut PTS ( disorder is a DSM ) stigma tag Loose it

Newly published research sheds light on how news media shared on social media may represent skewed perspectives on mental health, specifically for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Such representations typically perpetuate inaccurate stereotypes, and when spread across social media, these portrayals can exacerbate misperceptions.

The primary researcher, psychologist Scott Parrot, discusses some of the most prevalent myths regarding PTSD:

“First, people incorrectly assume PTSD affects sufferers immediately after traumatic events when in reality, symptoms can emerge well after an event. Second, people perceive the condition as one affecting only military veterans. PTSD affects 11% to 30% of veterans […] Still, the condition can affect anyone, regardless of occupation, race, gender, age, or other demographics. Third, people incorrectly believe PTSD affects people who are weak and should ‘get over it.’ A number of factors feed PTSD and other mental illnesses, but a supposed connection between PTSD and personal weakness is a myth.”

Parrot further suggests the negative impact of such myths on the population with PTSD, particularly veterans who have PTSD. It is not uncommon for them to refuse to seek help for fear of being labeled “violent, crazy, or dangerous,” a widespread misconception of the public. Parrot points to skewed news media representation as the potential culprit to such a phenomenon.

Get physical: Therapy for depression and anxiety- Mad in America

A new study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine finds that physical activity (PA) can improve symptoms of depression, anxiety, and overall psychological distress.

According to the review of research, exercise is effective across a wide range of adult populations. It was most effective for people with depression, HIV, kidney disease, pregnant and postpartum women, and healthy individuals. More intense exercise was linked to more significant symptom improvement. However, the effectiveness of physical activity in treating symptoms of depression, anxiety, and distress diminished over time. The authors write:

“Physical activity is highly beneficial for improving symptoms of depression, anxiety, and distress across a wide range of adult populations, including the general population, people with diagnosed mental health disorders, and people with chronic disease. Physical activity should be a mainstay approach in the management of depression, anxiety, and psychological distress.”
