If your child sits too close to the TV even after numerous attempts by you to stop it, it's probably because they're short sighted and can't see the TV from that distance.

Take them for an eye test, you'd be shocked

RT for awareness, you might be helping a child somewhere

Overlap of depression and anxiety is very common with up to almost half of the elderly patients reporting significant depressive and anxiety symptoms. Also, depression is the most common psychiatric disorder in late life.

Rapid urbanisation in our society throws up special problems in elderly care. There is great evidence of a raise in morbidity, mortality, hospitalisation and loss of functional status related to common mental disorders in the elderly patients.

I almost threw shade at you for posting this highly uninformed tweet, but I realize maybe you genuinely don’t understand how it works. So let me explain to you. These 790 people didn’t recover “overnight”. There are two criteria that must be met before someone is declared...

Picture 1 Healthy liver
Picture 2. Liver damaged by alcohol, replacing the healthy tissue with useless tissue. If you have too much useless tissue, it can lead to liver failure

Do you know that alcohol can also cause hepatitis?

An overdose of paracetamol can damage your liver

A lot of women usually complain about adding weight in pregnancy, complain about how "out of shape" they are and how they dream of having their pre-pregnancy bodies back.

It's absolutely normal to gain weight in pregnancy.

Though it can be frustrating.

I just want to tell you that if they tell you that a particular drug has NO side effects

It is a LIE!!! A big one!

Any drug that has an effect, has a side effect. However, not everyone will experience the side effects.

Saw one nonsense quote by a Yahoo boy

"I don't rest when I'm tired, I rest when I'm done.

Ignore nonsense like this.

When you're tired, rest. Start again when you're refreshed, if you don't, you're going to burnout!

Pay attention to when you feel overwhelmed.

Take a break
