Troubled With Postpartum Bipolar Disorder Expert Shares Tips To Manage

2025-04-14 - 2025-04

Society often places unrealistic expectations on mothers to be perfect caregivers. This stigma can prevent women from seeking the help they need. It’s essential to open doors for candid conversations around postpartum mental health.

Postpartum is often painted as a joyful yet challenging period for new mothers. However, for some women, this phase can bring in intense mood swings, erratic energy levels, and periods of depression or mania—symptoms associated with Postpartum Bipolar Disorder (PPBD).

PPBD is a mood disorder that emerges during or after pregnancy. Unlike the baby blues or even postpartum depression, it involves episodes of mania and depression. Mania may manifest as heightened energy levels, reduced need for sleep, and impulsive decision-making, while depression can bring on feelings of hopelessness, fatigue, and an inability to bond with the baby.

Our expert, Dr Ruchi Srivastav, Senior Consultant in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Sharda Care Hospital, Noida, sheds light on this under-discussed condition and offers practical strategies to cope. Explaining the condition she explains, “PPBD is caused by a combination of hormonal shifts, genetic predispositions, and psychological stress.” Let’s understand its symptoms and tips to manage.

UK riots led to deterioration in asylum seekers’ mental health, says report

2025-04-15 - 2025-04

Last summer’s riots, which took place after the murder of three girls at a Southport dance class, led to a deterioration in the mental health of asylum seekers, with many becoming fearful of walking down the street in case they were targeted by far-right protesters, according to a report.

The report from the Mental Health Foundation, published on Tuesday, identified a decline in the mental health of asylum seekers as a result of the civil unrest and attacks on hotels, compared with the state of their mental health when they published a similar report in February 2024.

Mark Rowland, the chief executive of the Mental Health Foundation, said: “One key development since our last report has been that the racist riots of summer 2024 had a terrible impact on the mental health of many people seeking asylum in UK. Some people told us they were scared to leave their accommodation, risking increased isolation, and others said they feared they’d be attacked walking down the street just because of the colour of their skin.”

'Sunshine Guilt' Leads To Summertime Sadness For Nearly Half Of Americans — Which States Suffer The Most

2025-04-16 - 2025-04

We’re all familiar with the negative, depressive emotions that come during the colder, darker months of the year. Typically, we think of the summer months as being the literal rays of sunshine that cut through the emotional gray of winter.

However, a recent TikTok trend has led people to share their feelings regarding “sunshine guilt,” or feelings of guilt and depression that occur during the summer. Forbes Health conducted a survey to determine just how prevalent this sunshine guilt is.

Sunshine guilt or experiencing depression and other negative symptoms during the summer is not uncommon.
Forbes Health surveyed 2,000 “general population Americans” to determine how bad symptoms of sunshine guilt were. 48% of participants admitted to having negative mental health symptoms at some point during the summer, with the most typical being anxiety, stress, problems sleeping, and depression.

Doctor shares what to eat for mental health and what to avoid: ‘Eating processed foods can worsen your mental health’

2025-04-19 - 2025-04

We all have our go-to comfort foods, but what we eat might be doing more than just satisfying cravings. From mood dips to feeling anxious or low, our daily diet could be shaping how we feel mentally too. In his April 4 podcast, Stanford neurobiology professor Andrew Huberman spoke with Harvard psychiatrist Dr Chris Palmer about how food choices can affect mental health.
haring a clip from their conversation on Instagram, Huberman wrote in the caption, “The idea that what we eat can impact our mood and mental health comes at no surprise. However, it's only recently that scientific and clinical studies have begun to establish the powerful relationship between eating highly processed foods and mental health disorders. Alterations in mitochondria likely represent the bridge between these two factors.”

Nearly half of teens say social media is bad for youth mental health, report finds New York

2025-04-23 - 2025-04

The impact of social media on young people's mental health and well-being is a growing topic of concern among parents, educators, health care professionals and regulators. And now, nearly half of US teens say social media has a mostly negative effect on people their age - and almost the same proportion say they're cutting back on social media use.

That's according to a Pew Research Center report published Tuesday that asked American teens and parents about their attitudes around social media and smartphones. It offers an updated glimpse into how teens view their own social media use, following a separate Pew study from December that found nearly half of US teens say they're online almost constantly.

The report comes as parents and regulators have called on social media companies to do more to keep young people safe - and prevent them from spending too much time - on their platforms.

Dhanbad woman slammed for calling son's anxiety 'nautanki' in viral video

2025-04-24 - 2025-04

A woman from Dhanbad was slammed online after she shared a video she recorded of her son possibly experiencing anxiety. The internet accused her of turning a distressing moment into content.
A Dhanbad-based woman found herself at the receiving end of the internet after she shared a video of her son appearing visibly distressed while doing his homework.

Study shows significant increase in mental health diagnoses among publicly insured children

2025-04-25 - 2025-04

In the first comprehensive investigation into the trends of mental health diagnoses among children with public health insurance, a new study reports the percentage of mental health and neurodevelopmental disorder diagnoses increased substantially in the decade before the COVID-19 pandemic.

Researchers from Emory University and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta used Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance Program claims data to analyze trends in mental health and neurodevelopmental disorder diagnoses among nearly 30 million publicly insured children ages 3-17 across 22 U.S. states from 2010-2019.

The study, which was published in JAMA on Thursday, found the percentage of children diagnosed with such disorders in each year rose from 10.7% to 16.5% during this period. After accounting for population changes over time, this translated into an increase of 6.7 percentage points.

“The size of the increase is alarming and clinically significant on its own. But it is even more concerning that we saw this increase and our last year of data was 2019, when we know from other sources that mental health among children continued to decline after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic," says lead author Janet Cummings, PhD, professor in the Department of Health Policy and Management at Emory University's Rollins School of Public Health.

Using smartwatches to better understand psychiatric illness

2025-04-28 - 2025-04

Wearable sensors such as smartwatches that collect physical and physiological data may be powerful tools in the effort to better understand brain and behavioral illnesses and their genetic drivers, a new Yale study finds.

Using smartwatch data collected from more than 5,000 adolescents, Yale researchers were able to train AI models to predict whether individuals had different psychiatric illnesses and uncover illness-associated genes. The findings, published Dec. 19 in the journal Cell, suggest wearable sensors may enable a much more nuanced understanding — and treatment — of psychiatric illness.

“In traditional psychiatry, a doctor will assess your symptoms and you’ll either be diagnosed with an illness or you won’t,” said co-senior author Mark Gerstein, the Albert L. Williams Professor of Biomedical Informatics and professor of molecular biophysics and biochemistry, of computer science, and of statistics and data science. “But in this study, we focused on processing the wearable data in a meaningful way that could both be leveraged to predict illnesses more comprehensively, and to better connect with underlying genetic factors.”

Hoarding a mental health emergency - group warns

2025-04-29 - 2025-04

Hoarding in the UK has become a "mental health emergency" which requires an urgent response, a leading social enterprise has warned.

Clouds End CIC has been supporting more than 300 people who hoard in Birmingham, helping them to declutter their homes and encouraging them to attend mental health support groups.

It is an intervention project funded by Birmingham City Council, working closely with social services.

Estimates suggest 2-5% of the UK population may have hoarding disorder, which the World Health Organisation classified as a mental health condition in 2018. However, Heather Matuozzo, founder of Clouds End CIC, says the true number will have risen significantly since the pandemic.

MERIT Therapy for Schizophrenia and Serious Mental Illness

2025-04-30 - 2025-04

MERIT is one of several metacognitive psychotherapies, designed especially to meet the needs of individuals living with serious mental illnesses, including schizophrenia. It is deliverable in both group and individual settings, and it aims to improve metacognitive capacities through specialized interventions.

Metacognitive Capacities and Psychosis
Metacognition is a word utilized in fields ranging from education to mental health, often with subtle differences in meaning. Broadly, it references how one thinks about the process of thinking, or one's own cognition in particular. Therefore, the simplest definition of metacognition might be understanding how we and others think. It involves self-reflection, understanding others, considering greater trends, and using all this information to make meaning and move toward our valued goals.

Trump Administration Cancels $1 Billion in Grants for Student Mental Health

2025-05-02 - 2025-05

The Trump administration has halted $1 billion for mental health services for children, saying that the programs funded by a bipartisan law aimed at stemming gun violence in schools were no longer in “the best interest of the federal government.”

Lawmakers authorized the money in 2022 after a former student opened fire at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, killing 19 children and two teachers and injuring 17 others. The measure, known as the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, broke a decades-long impasse between congressional Republicans and Democrats on addressing gun violence by focusing largely on improving mental health support for students.

Former Fetterman Aide Expressed Concern to Doctor About Senator’s Mental Health

2025-05-03 - 2025-05

The former chief of staff to Senator John Fetterman, Democrat of Pennsylvania, was so alarmed with his ex-boss’s erratic behavior last year that he wrote a lengthy letter to his doctor warning that the senator was spiraling out of control and that his mental health issues could cost him his life.

“I’m worried that if John stays on his current trajectory he won’t be with us for much longer,” Adam Jentleson, the former chief of staff, wrote on May 20 to a doctor who had treated Mr. Fetterman at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

Mr. Fetterman’s behavior, according to former aides who are still connected to his diminishing circle, is still at times a cause of concern. Other former members of his staff, speaking on the condition of anonymity, report that their colleagues sometimes were frightened to be in the senator’s presence, if he was in an amped-up mood.

V.A. Mental Health Care Staff, Crowded into Federal Buildings, Raise Patient Privacy Alarms

2025-05-05 - 2025-05

In a Boston V.A. hospital, six social workers are conducting phone and telehealth visits with veterans from a single, crowded room, clinicians say. In Kansas City, providers are planning patient care while facing each other across narrow, cafeteria-style tables in a large, open space, according to staff members.

And in South Florida, psychiatric nurses have been treating veterans with mental health conditions in a hallway near a bathroom, sitting down with them in a makeshift medical bay jury-rigged out of filing cabinets and a translucent screen.

“People walking by can hear everything that’s going on,” said Bill Frogameni, an acute care psychiatric nurse at the Miami V.A. hospital and director of the local chapter of the National Nurses United union, referring to the patient intake setup in a V.A. outpatient facility in Homestead, Fla., outside Miami.

Obesity and Poor Diet Quality Widespread in Severe Mental Illness

2025-05-06 - 2025-05

A survey of adults with severe mental illness reported obesity in 42% of participants, along with poor diet quality and ineffective weight management despite efforts, highlighting gaps in current weight management approaches.

Researchers conducted a cross-sectional survey using online, postal, or researcher-assisted methods and included 529 adults (mean age, 49.3 years; 58% men) with severe mental illness.
Participants were required to have a documented diagnosis of schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or bipolar disorder.
Data on physical activity and sedentary behaviour, diet, medication use, body mass index, mental health, and sociodemographic measures were collected in two phases: Pre–COVID-19 pandemic (before March 2020) and post-onset (June 2021 to March 2022).

KU professor leads collaboration across disciplines to teach perinatal mental health care

2025-05-07 - 2025-05

Mental health conditions are the most common complication of pregnancy and childbirth, affecting one in five pregnant and postpartum women every year, according to the Association of American Medical Colleges. Yet three-quarters go untreated and undiagnosed.

Part of the reason for this shortage in care is that fewer than 500 psychiatrists in the United States are trained in providing reproductive mental health care to the 800,000 women a year who experience maternal mental health complications, according to the Maternal Mental Health Leadership Alliance.

Erin Bider, M.D., clinical assistant professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the University of Kansas School of Medicine, is looking to change that. Bider’s expertise in perinatal psychiatry — honed during her internship and residency at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences — makes her uniquely qualified to address the overall lack of training in maternal mental health care.

Poor mental health as child limits capacity to work in later life, study finds

2025-05-19 - 2025-05

Children in Great Britain with serious mental health conditions are two-thirds more likely to have a limited ability to work in adulthood, according to research from a leading thinktank.

The report by researchers at the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) looked at data from about 6,000 people who took part in the 1970 British Cohort Study, which is following the lives of individuals born in a single week in 1970 across Great Britain.

The analysis found that people who had severe mental and behavioural issues as a child were 85% more likely to have symptoms of depression at the age of 51, and 68% more likely to have a long-term condition that affects their ability to work.

Children with a physical health problem were 38% more likely to have limited capacity for work in later life, according to the analysis.

The evolving voice of mental health in advertising

2025-05-21 - 2025-05

The first time I encountered a conversation about mental health, I wasn’t even part of it; I was eavesdropping on my family talking in hushed tones about someone who seemed deeply distressed. But the secrecy around it meant I didn’t really understand what was going on, or why it mattered, until much later. When I grew older and found myself overwhelmed by my own thoughts, I was fortunate to have people around me who simply listened and did not try to teach me how to swim when I was drowning.

Corporate health crisis: 1 in 5 employees seek mental health support, 20% ready to quit as chronic illness hits before 40

2025-05-31 - 2025-05

One in five employees is seeking mental health support. Nearly 20 percent are considering quitting their jobs due to burnout. And chronic lifestyle-related illnesses — from hypertension to diabetes — are hitting Indians before they turn 40.

This is the current reality inside India’s glass-walled offices and buzzing co-working hubs. The very same professionals powering the country’s digital economy are burning out — fast.

Plum, an employee health benefits platform, has released its Employee Health Report 2025, offering a comprehensive view into the growing health burdens faced by India’s white-collar workers.

Drawing from over 100,000 telehealth consultations, 25,000 insurance claims, 1,998 health camp screenings, and 512 survey responses, the report paints a deeply concerning picture: chronic diseases are hitting Indians earlier than ever before, mental health issues are escalating, and burnout is driving a significant portion of the workforce to consider quitting.

These 5 Serious Signs Signal Your Mental Health is Declining

Your teen's mental health may be tied to what their mother endures at home

2025-06-03 - 2025-06

Have you ever wondered what happens in a child’s mind when they see their mother suffer silently at home

A new study titled Examining the impact of maternal experiences of domestic violence on the mental health of their adolescent children in India, published in the medical journal PLOS One, reveals that when mothers face domestic abuse, their adolescent children are more likely to develop anxiety, depression, and other common mental disorders.

Based on data from 2,784 mother-child pairs across seven states in India, the study uncovers the reality that violence at home doesn’t just break women, it silently breaks the mental well-being of the next generation as well.

The Head and the Heart: Managing a ‘Silent Epidemic’

2025-06-07 - 2025-06

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause for premature mortality in patients with mental illness, particularly those with severe psychiatric disorders.

The numbers bear out the link: The life expectancy of a person with severe mental illness is 15-20 years shorter than that of unaffected individuals, largely thanks to the effects of cardiac conditions. Patients with depression have a two to fourfold increased risk for developing CVD and a two to fourfold higher risk for mortality after experiencing a cardiac event compared to individuals without depression.

A panel discussion at the 2025 annual meeting of the European Society of Cardiology held in Madrid, Spain, in conjunction with the Inter-American Society of Cardiology explored the intersection of the heart and the mind. Panelist Donata Kurpas MD, PhD, of Wroclaw Medical University, in Wrocaw, Poland, called the burden of CVD in people with mental illness a “silent epidemic” and encouraged attendees to “rethink cardiovascular prevention” in the psychiatric conditions of their patients.

Revolutionary smart dental floss tracks your stress in real time

2025-06-10 - 2025-06

Stress is a natural response to life’s challenges. Short-term stress can help you stay focused. But long-term stress is linked to health problems like high blood pressure, anxiety, depression, and heart disease. Detecting and managing chronic stress is vital to staying healthy. Yet, the tools we use to measure stress haven’t kept up. Right now, people often rely on questionnaires or psychiatric evaluations, which are subjective and don’t give instant feedback. Blood tests can track stress hormones, but they’re not convenient for daily use. They need lab visits and equipment most people don’t have access to.

Cambridge:
Anxiety disorders are the world's most common mental health problem. But it isn't always easy to get professional help, with long waiting lists in many countries.
