STATING THE FACTS FIRST

The standard disclaimer that needs to be included in this section is full of legalese, rhetoric or mumbo jumbo that nobody reads. I’ll keep mine short.

I AM NOT A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL.
I AM A WRITER.
An obsessively curious one.

I write about my passions. I write about words. And when I have questions I need answers to, I study and research incessantly until I can answer them.

AND THEN I WRITE ABOUT IT.
  • Mental health is my interest and primary writing subject area.
  • I am fascinated by the brain because I have ADHD and need to understand my own brain.
  • I found mindfulness to be a valuable self care treatment and I have had tremendous success with it. Everyone can benefit from it.
  • I use mindfulness as self care to accompany my professional treatment.
  • Mindfulness is FDA approved for the treatment of trauma.

My writing is found in my author website www.bykairos.com.

I have chosen to include portions of it here to accompany the phobia word list because it’s relevant, it’s exposure for my work and because of my prime directive:

TO SPREAD MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS AND HELP REDUCE STIGMA.

MENTAL HEALTH MATTERS.
YOU MATTER

​MY LEGALESE
ALWAYS SEEK TREATMENT FROM A LICENSED MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL.

This content is provided for informational purposes only and cannot be used to diagnose or treat anything. Phobia collection is catalogued for literary purposes.

Talk to a licensed mental health medical professional, doctor or therapist to see what therapy is right for you.

Self care is NOT A SUBSTITUTE for professional treatment. It is self guided, compassionate care you give yourself. It is taking care of your mind, body and soul. It is work you do outside of therapy to help care for yourself. Mindfulness is self care. Exercise is self care. Massage, aromatherapy, spirituality, hobbies, sleeping... all self care.

THERAPY IS PROFESSIONAL TREATMENT.
AND GETTING IT FOR YOURSELF IS SELF CARE.


Find medical professionals here.

Remember - mental health matters and getting help from a professional is healthy self care and does not mean you are weak, that you can’t handle it, or that you are crazy. Ignore the stigma. Stigma is formed from maladaptive beliefs and those beliefs are reinforced by misinformation. And it’s spread by big mouths.

If you had a cardiac problem you would see an MD. A medical doctor called a cardiologist. It’s your HEART. It pumps your blood. Keeps you alive. It’s a vital organ.

FACT: The BRAIN is what powers your heart.

When your brain needs medical assistance you also see a doctor. A psychiatrist is an MD just like a cardiologist, a psychologist is a PhD, also called a doctor. Learn more here.
