These constantly increased physical states of arousal - may frequently trigger psychosomatic disorders such as ... (Deffenbacher / Suinn, 1987)
Übersicht mit KI
Yes, prolonged states of high physical arousal can significantly increase the risk of developing psychosomatic disorders. This occurs because chronic stress, fear, and other emotional factors activate the body's involuntary nervous system, leading to the sympathetic nervous system (the "fight-or-flight" response) remaining overactive. Over time, this constant "wear and tear" on the body's systems can manifest as real, physical symptoms and disorders.
The Connection Between Arousal and Psychosomatic Disorders
Chronic Stress:
When stress is prolonged or severe, the body's stress response system remains on high alert, which can damage bodily systems.
Autonomic Nervous System Activation:
Psychological factors like stress and fear activate the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and internal glands.
Physiological Changes:
This activation leads to increased physiological processes like heart rate and blood pressure, which are associated with the arousal state.
Sensitization:
Prolonged arousal can lead to increased reactivity to stimuli, a process known as sensitization, which can make a person more vulnerable to psychosomatic disorders.
Somatic Symptoms:
The persistent activation of the stress response can lead to a range of physical symptoms and eventually contribute to the development of chronic conditions.
Examples of Psychosomatic Disorders
Gastrointestinal disorders: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) can be triggered or worsened by stress and anxiety.
Skin conditions: Stress can exacerbate eczema and psoriasis.
Headaches and migraines: Recurring headaches and migraines can be worsened by stress and anxiety.
Chronic pain: Emotional distress can amplify pain signals, making persistent pain harder to manage.
Factors that Increase Vulnerability
History of Trauma:
Traumatic experiences can leave a person with a persistent state of hypervigilance and overreaction.
Personality Traits:
Certain personality traits can make an individual more vulnerable to the effects of stress.
Genetic and Environmental Factors:
A combination of genetic predispositions and environmental factors can play a role in the development of these disorders.
Only dead fish - swim with the tide … (R. Nehberg)
Rüdiger Nehberg war ein deutscher Survival-Experte und Aktivist für Menschenrechte. Seine anfänglich aus Abenteuerlust unternommenen entbehrungsreichen Expeditionen nutzte er später, um auf gesellschaftliche Probleme aufmerksam zu machen. Wikipedia
Übersicht mit KI
Der Satz "Nur tote Fische schwimmen mit dem Strom" ist ein bekanntes Zitat, das darauf hinweist, dass man unabhängig denken und handeln sollte, anstatt sich der Masse anzuschließen. Es wird oft Malcolm Muggeridge zugeschrieben und bedeutet, dass nur tote Fische passiv mit dem Strom treiben, während lebende Organismen aktiv handeln und sich oft entgegen dem Strom bewegen, um ihre Ziele zu erreichen.
Bedeutung des Zitats
Unabhängiges Denken:
Das Zitat fordert dazu auf, eigene Gedanken zu entwickeln und sich nicht von der Meinung anderer oder dem vorherrschenden Trend beeinflussen zu lassen.
Mut zur Individualität:
Es ermutigt dazu, den eigenen Weg zu gehen, auch wenn dieser nicht dem Mainstream entspricht, und eigene Entscheidungen zu treffen.
Kritik am Konformismus:
Der Satz übt Kritik an der bloßen Anpassung an die Gesellschaft und betont die Wichtigkeit von Aktivität und Entschlossenheit.
Herkunft und Verwendung
Obwohl die Anfrage die Zuschreibung an R. Nehberg nennt, ist das Zitat in der Regel Malcolm Muggeridge zugeschrieben, wie auf SlideShare erwähnt. Es wird als Aufforderung zur intellektuellen Unabhängigkeit verstanden und in vielen Kontexten zitiert, um zu betonen, wie wichtig es ist, die eigene Stimme zu finden und gegen den Strom zu schwimmen.

Some anxiety disorders can lead to long-term depression … (H.-U. Wittchen)
Übersicht mit KI
Yes, according to H.-U. Wittchen and colleagues, some anxiety disorders can indeed lead to long-term depression, with prospective studies showing that childhood and early adolescent anxiety disorders significantly increase the risk for later depression, often acting as a primary factor. This relationship highlights anxiety disorders as major clinical risk factors for depression and can result in an earlier onset and poorer course of depression.
How Anxiety Disorders Lead to Depression
Increased Risk:
Research indicates that having an anxiety disorder increases the risk of developing depression. For example, the presence of a childhood anxiety disorder can raise the risk of subsequent depression by 63% to 90%.
Temporal Precedence:
Studies have consistently found that anxiety disorders tend to precede the onset of depressive episodes, suggesting a causal link in many cases.
Compounding Stressors:
The experience of intense anxiety can itself act as a compounding stressor. This, combined with other risk factors like a genetic predisposition, can lead to a "decompensation" resulting in major depression.
Dose-Response Effect:
A higher number of anxiety disorders and greater severity of anxiety symptoms can further increase the risk for developing depression, showing a clear dose-response relationship.
Clinical Implications
Primary vs. Comorbid:
Anxiety disorders are often primary to depression in comorbid cases, meaning they occur first and increase the likelihood of developing depression.
Impact on Depression's Course:
Anxiety disorders don't just increase the initial risk for depression but can also negatively impact its course, leading to a poorer prognosis.
Prevention and Intervention:
This understanding is crucial for developing prevention and intervention strategies, as treating anxiety disorders may be a way to prevent or mitigate the development of depression.
Attitudes are changed - by actions ... (S. Leidig)
Übersicht mit KI
The quote "Attitudes are changed – by actions" suggests that acting in a certain way can lead to a change in one's attitude, a principle supported by psychological theories like self-perception theory and cognitive dissonance theory. For example, engaging in a behavior, especially one that contradicts existing attitudes, can cause thoughts and feelings to change to align with the action, leading to attitude change rather than relying on external persuasion.
How Actions Influence Attitudes
Self-Perception Theory:
When you perform an action, particularly an unexpected one, you infer your own attitudes and beliefs based on that behavior. If you're not sure how you feel about something, you might look to your actions as a guide to what your attitude is.
Cognitive Dissonance Theory:
People experience discomfort (dissonance) when their beliefs and actions are inconsistent. To reduce this discomfort, they might change their attitudes to match their behaviors, especially if the action was not strongly justified by external rewards or punishments.
Behavioral Commitment:
Public commitments or actions with significant real-life consequences, like making a public donation, are more likely to lead to significant attitude change. This is because the action requires a stronger personal investment.
Examples
Choosing a Product:
If you buy a new brand of orange marmalade instead of your usual strawberry jam (an unexpected behavior), your attitude toward orange marmalade might become more positive after you've bought and consumed it.
Counterattitudinal Behavior:
If you find yourself participating in a public action that goes against your personal beliefs, you may then change your attitudes to be more in line with that action to justify your participation.
In essence, this quote highlights the bidirectional relationship between attitudes and behaviors, where actions can be a powerful driver of changes in our thoughts and feelings.
Golden Snow all points so important this is true "But withholding your own thoughts, feelings and behaviors is a great mental and physical exertion"
