Brain Boosting Breakfasts

If you feel mentally sluggish in the morning, rest assured that it’s 100 percent not just you. In fact, there’s a scientific reason why getting going in the a.m. can be such a struggle. Cortisol levels are at their highest around 7 a.m., and when cortisol levels are high, you’re more likely to experience brain fog.

Weird Phobias

https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/29-weird-phobias-that-really-do-exist/ss-BB1gjp5X?ocid=msnews

“A phobia consists of a persistent fear or avoidance of a specific stimulus,” says Kate Wolitzky-Taylor, PhD, an associate faculty member with the Anxiety and Depression Research Center at UCLA. “Usually the stimulus is a thing or a situation—like bees or heights.” But there’s a second component to phobias. “In addition, the fear causes significant distress or somehow impairs the person’s life,” Wolitzky-Taylor says.

Slide 1 of 31: Everyone’s afraid of something—or a lot of somethings. But fear isn’t the same thing as a true phobia. “A phobia consists of a persistent fear or avoidance of a specific stimulus,” says Kate Wolitzky-Taylor, PhD, an associate faculty member with the Anxiety and Depression Research Center at UCLA. “Usually the stimulus is a thing or a situation—like bees or heights.” But there’s a second component to phobias. “In addition, the fear causes significant distress or somehow impairs the person’s life,” Wolitzky-Taylor says. So maybe you get creeped out by snakes or tight spaces—both of which are common, she says. Your fear may rise to the level of a phobia if you can’t even see snakes on TV without losing sleep, or you have to quit your job because getting to your office requires that you ride in a cramped elevator. Where do these phobias come from? Your DNA may play a role. Wolitzky-Taylor says many people have genes that raise their risk for anxiety-related disorders—an umbrella term that includes phobias. But even if you don’t have those phobia genes, you can develop one through learning or “conditioning.” For example, if your parents always told you to be fearful of spiders, that could snowball into a phobia—especially if you also had a negative experience with a spider.Avoiding the thing that scares you can also increase its power over you. “Avoidance strengthens anxiety and keeps it going, and that’s a recipe for phobia,” Wolitzky-Taylor says. Quite literally, we can be afraid of just about anything. Keep reading to learn about the weirdest phobias out there.

Uncommon

MwsR

Uncommon is leaving our doors unlocked and being worry free

Uncommon, the bond between brothers, literally.

Uncommon is lending a ride to a stranger

Constantly we worry about danger.

Uncommon are the rules at school the same as at church

We would rather seperate decency, honesty, and such.

Uncommon are the beliefs that our nation was founded on

So much has changed and for too long.

Uncommon is the respect shown towards another,

There is no respect even for your own mother.

Uncommon is far too common, anymore.

I guess people would rather close the right door.

Uncommon manners are really not manners

They are a bunch of bullcrap from ignorant planners.

Uncommon genders, uncommon themes,

Mixed up agendas, ripped out schemes.

Uncommon statues that once stood for something

Now appear to offend everyone for everything.

Uncommon vaccines, liberated bias,

False accusations, someone has to be a liar.

Uncommon are things that once were the rage

Probably snuffed out by the “be yourself” stage.

Uncommon rules, that find their way in

Usually, because someone wants to win.

Let us not forget the uncommon nowadays

Is slowly being erased.

Uncommon will soon be the only in common we all share.

But that is life and we know that ain’t fair.
