PAVLOV'S DOGGIES, STINKIN' THINKIN' AND LEARNED HELPLESSNESS
Learned helplessness, an increasingly significant barrier to a healthy quality of life, can result in deep depression or even suicide, and therefore is a crucial mental health issue. The condition is usually the result of how parents, teachers and caregivers communicate with a child. Untreated, the person suffering from learned helplessness (often termed pessimism) remains unempowered, inadequately esteemed, and the pervasive belief that he cannot take care of himself or take responsibility for his life. Included are a quiz by Martin E. P. Seligman, an expert on learned helplessness and cognitive therapy, which offers tendencies which can alert you or someone close to you to the importance of optimism and pessimism in our current culture.

The Women Who Suffer Neuropathic Diseases - Part II
A woman who contracts neuropathic disease is subject to many trauma. Not only that of the disease itself - but of rejection by her mate - friends - family - and co-workers. She is abandoned by those who were her friends. She usually suffers at the hands of incompetent and uncaring doctors - and is often the unwitting victim of insurance company and Workman's Compensation policies. Early and effective treatment is vital if the disease is to be conquered. All of these aforementioned elements conspire to prevent this early treatment.
