Balding men and desperation

[topccat29]

Young desperate bald men remind me so much of old desperate sick men and what usually happens to them is the same except that the old desperate sick men usually end up dying in the ordeal when searching for an answer and young desperate bald men usually just end up dying on the inside in their search.

I just read and article about John of God and I just happen to personally know 2 gentlemen, early 50 €™s that have gone to this faith healer in hopes of curing their terminal cancer. Most of their life was focused only on money and in the end they would gladly give it all away just to live. In their desperation they traveled to Brazil but they both passed away shortly after. Most would think €¦..hmmmm €¦..well why not it €™s worth taking a chance. Well it €™s the same for young balding men and there are plenty of sharks out their waiting to take a bite. Lots of chameleons out there trying to change up €¦..lol €¦..okay I took that from a Cypress Hill tune but it so applies as I continue to see what goes on in the industry. In particular those that have done so much damage in the past trying to change their image on some of the forums. I can sit back and laugh about it but in reality it is very sad.

Yes I do know a little bit about faith healing as when I was about 12 my mother had a boss that took his wife to the Philippines to cure her cancer but she died several years later. This same boss was still a true believer having authored several books on the subject after his experience. What was really amazing to me is that I found myself working there several years later for a short time and mail would arrive weekly with actual cash inside from people all over the world asking for this man to send physic energy their way. I know it might seem impossible for some to believe but this actually happened and this is what people do when they are desperate and young bald men would benefit by sitting back and trying to understand it and why they can so easily be targeted by those that are unscrupulous.

My mother is still working for the same company, it €™s about 35 years later and yes money still comes in the mail, amazing.

Balding can cause depression amongst other symptons, hopefully more people will become educated on this subject.

My personal opinion on the subject of balding and depression is a little different. I believe it is one €™s perception and one €™s thinking that causes depression. This is also why I suggest to those that are depressed to seek out some type of cognitive therapy as the pharmaceutical approach many times leads to disaster in my opinion.

I have done some extensive reading on the subject and some titles that come to mind our €œLearned Optimism € and €œBiology of Belief €. I didn €™t read them because I myself was depressed as I rarely have that feeling and if I do I am down about 24 hours before my whole thought process changes and I use the event to propel me higher. I realized after reading some of this material that my own thought process worked for my benefit.

I also believe that diet plays a huge role and those that don €™t agree I respect your opinion but you simply do not understand how the body works. My suggestion would be to do some extensive reading on the subject and I mean books than get back to me with your thoughts.

Whenever someone feels the need to attack me because of something I wrote on another forum I realize they might just be an a-hole so it doesn €™t get me down €¦ €¦..lol €¦ €¦ €¦sometimes that can be a good way of looking at things.

Common sense should tell most people that the continual increase in depression, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity and a host of inflammatory diseases has absolutely nothing to do with not having the right medication. So exactly what is it? Find out and then stop doing that.

Unfortunately I do not have a white coat or a piece of paper and no one makes any money with that kind of advice so most will defer to the experts.

This article may be of interest for those who would like to learn more about depression. But it only represents one aspect of the hundreds of things we think are normal to do but are very abnormal to the brain and body.

According to recent research conducted by scientists from the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and the University of Granada, both junk food and fast food consumption ignites depression. In fact, the study, published in the journal Public Health Nutrition shows that those consuming fast food are 51 percent more likely to be depressed than those consuming very little or none of the health-damaging food. What €™s more, depression risk was found to increase with the more fast food and junk food consumed.

Fast Food, Baked Goods Shown to Increase Risk for Depression

The study sample involved 8,964 participants, all of whom have never been diagnosed with depression and have never taken any medication for depression. After a six month assessment, 493 became diagnosed with depression or began taking antidepressant medications €” which have previously been shown to actually make depression even worse. The current results support what the SUN project, a lifestyle tracking program, have found in 2011 where a 42 percent increase in depression risk was found with those consuming fast food. Additionally, the increase in depression risk was just as high with the consumption of baked goods and junk food.

The research adds further evidence as to why everyone should avoid fast food at all costs. Representing some of the lowest-quality food on planet earth, fast food is loaded with health-wrecking ingredients, while the food itself is cooked in the most unhealthy manner possible. The meat used is conventional, and thus loaded with antibiotics, growth hormones, and up until recently was loaded with ammonia-treated €˜pink slime scrap meat.

Of course depression is not the only problem that can arise from fast food and junk food consumption, although the findings are very concerning. While many individuals may not realize is these foods have actually been shown to trigger extreme addiction and brain damage. A study published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation shows that junk food has a brain-altering effect which makes you eat more of it. High-fat processed food consumption causes damage to the hypothalmus part of your brain €“ an area responsible for levels of hunger, thirst, and the body €™s natural rhythms and cycles.

With fast food and junk food shown to cause depression, obesity, and countless other health problems, it is time for people to re-evaluate their eating habits and make overall lifestyle changes.
