PHYSICIAN NEEDED

-
Dear Reader,

Happy New Month🎉💫🥂
I'm grateful to God for carrying us through January and for how he has helped all of us too. I wish us the perfect February filled with God's unconditional love. 

So, I went from writing about having a dual health combo this year to experiencing the worst imbalance ever. 
My physical health seemed so unstable and it was affecting my spiritual health. This set up, it can't be for me❌

Amidst the back and forth, I wondered if I should maybe get myself checked or just "lock-up" and let my immune system work as it always does. Whatever the case, I just need to be well. 

In our society, it is very rare to find people who just go to the hospital to get themselves checked. I mean no underlying condition, no signs and symptoms, no exposure to health threatening conditions, nothing. 
So many people get themselves checked to treat a condition or find out why they feel the way they do. 

Matthew 9:12 NKJV
[12] When Jesus heard that, He said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.

As Jesus right said, those who are we'll have no need of a physician. 
It is he who is sick that is expected to see a physician to get help.

    I can completely relate to that situation of having your health threatened on both fronts and I pray that God in His mercy will restore your health completely and all-round.
    Really, it is those who are ill that are in need of physicians but the question then becomes: what of those who just haven’t realized yet that they are ill? May God help us to be sensitive enough to detect when things aren’t right with us and seek help immediately.
    Thank you so much for this insightful piece Ma’am, God bless you.

ABOULOMANIA

 Dear Reader,  . . . Saying "Happy New Month" on the 5th day of the month doesn't feel weird and since we haven't met this month, Happy New Month. Here's hoping that you have been faring well and that your year is coming to an end in the way God wants it to.  I'd love to share a story, which will launch me to my topic for today. It is about a young person who was trying to "figure out" life when he got to a 'crossroad'. There were mixed feelings. Moments of indecision, confusion, insecurity, and uncertainty. This affected the person's ability to make minor decisions necessary for their day-to-day activities.  Seemingly little as this might appear, it relates to a condition known as ABOULOMANIA which is a mental disorder characterized by pathological indecisiveness. It can be referred to as the paralysis of the will . It is usually diagnosed alongside other mental disorders such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression, or sub...

MEMORY LOSS

Dear Reader, Today happens to be one of those long and hectic days. Days when you do not really imagine your schedule to be tiring and draining, but you just come back all weak, and completely drained. Yes, that was what happened to me.  I lost my device just recently, and it wasn't a fun experience. Everything happened so fast that I didn't even know how I felt. I was stranded and confused. I know that I was hoping to get a better device soon, but I also didn't want to lose the one I was using the way I lost it. In fact, I cried after the incident 😄😅 Thankfully, I didn't have to stay without a device for long as God used my Dad to provide another one. I was happy and I tried to activate it and get things back to normal... That was when it began to dawn on me that I had lost almost everything in my former device. My pictures, my chats, my random notes, my messages, and almost everything I had stored in the phone all the while I used it. It felt like a part of my memor...

DRY SENSATION

The weather has been quite hot and dry in most places this period. I know that so many people like myself have been quite dehydrated and easily thirsty due to the weather change. Even after taking water sometimes, I still have this dry sensation and I always want more water!  The body has some mechanisms it uses to maintain homeostasis whenever we are thirsty or dehydrated. These are actions the body takes to ensure that a constant internal environment is maintained even when there is less water due to the hot and dry weather.  Whenever the body has lesser fluid or a higher concentration of certain osmolites, we tend to become thirsty. The hypothalamus plays a vital role in the regulation of thirst. One thing the hypothalamus does is increase the synthesis of antidiuretic hormone(ADH) called vasopressin , which is secreted by the pituitary gland and travels to the kidneys to perform its function. In the kidney, it causes water to be reabsorbed from the urine, thus reduc...
