Don't let negative thinking take over your life. Be objective. Try and identify when you're doing negative thinking and put a stop to it. Challenge those negative beliefs, don't fall into the traps of magnification, black or white thinking or catastrophizing the situation. 

Challenging your negative beliefs is the first step against fighting anxiety, depression and pessimism. Start today and fight for your future. 

I talk about the definition of insomnia as well as my own personal experience with it. I talk about a few simple steps you can take to rehabilitate yourself and create a conditioned response between bed and sleep. A response that you may have lost since your childhood. This is the most common cure for insomnia and avoids hypnotics, benzos, supplements etc. 

Give it a go and let me know what you think!

What should you say to someone going through an episode of depression? What can you say? 

Today I'm uploading a short talk on depression.  One of the most common mental health illnesses we see in everyday life. Here I talk about how it commonly manifests but also the best ways to encourage someone like your family or friends. This is my first episode :) 

My name is DoctorIrish. I love to do microcasts (which mean 60-90 seconds typically)  of mostly health, wellness and psychology topics that we encounter in everyday life. I want to help people, especially young people that want to learn more about these broad topics and get an insight from a real Doctor. Feel free to reach out to me. I am always happy to talk to anyone with good intentions and of course confidentiality is always ensured. 

Hope this helps.
