Here are the signs you are likely dealing with a loser who won’t change their ways: 1. They’re incapable of having a vulnerable conversation Krakenimages.com | Shutterstock Many people believe that deep conversations will be more awkward than they actually are, especially with strangers.

But if someone’s incapable of having a thoughtful and vulnerable conversation with a loved one they already know, there’s a chance they’re actually unable to have a truly meaningful relationship. Especially for women with these tendencies, they tend to have superficial thinking styles that bring conversations back to men. …

Dealing With Post-Trail Depression | Psychology Today

Dealing With Post-Trail Depression | Psychology Today

Published by Jenni Sidey

Post-trail depression is difficulty adjusting back to “regular” life following a major adventure. Common experiences include feelings of sadness, anxiety, restlessness, loss of purpose, lack of interest in activities typically enjoyed, low energy, feeling easily overwhelmed by everyday decisions, and generally feeling out of place. Post-trail depression is commonly experienced by long-distance backpackers, though anyone transitioning from a major mountain adventure back to their everyday life can experience this phenomenon. Why Does It Happen? Put simply, transitioning off trail is psychological whiplash. Long-distance hiking or any mountain adventure is a wholly immersive experience. The stressors of everyday life fade away. While a mountain adventure can involve complex decisions around risk mitigation, the bulk of daily decisions will center around a few basics: how far to walk, what to eat from your pack, when to refill water, etc. This is a stark contrast to everyday life, where we are constantly bombarded by information, stimuli, and decisions. In addition to the adventure itself, you may have also spent weeks or months preparing for the physical, mental, and …

What Keir Starmer can learn from ‘little creep’ Harold Wilson in dealing with an angry US president

Published by Sam Flores

The Anglo-American “special relationship” has hit a low ebb following American strikes on Iran. US president Donald Trump disparaged British prime minister Keir Starmer with a negative comparison to Winston Churchill, making clear his “disappointment” over British reticence to offer logistical support to the American military. This is the latest in a series of comments Trump has made about Starmer’s authority on foreign policy concerns – particularly the British return of Diego Garcia to Mauritius. For his part, Starmer has publicly broken from the president on the matter of Greenland, offering “strong support” to Denmark in response to US threats to take over the territory. In January, when Trump disparaged British troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, Starmer called the remarks “appalling.”. Despite Trump’s attempts on Truth Social to smooth the matter over following a “stern” call from Starmer, one controversial exchange has bled into the next. Trump is understood to be very unhappy that the UK won’t join strikes on Iran. Starmer has stood by his decision and insists it is his duty to decide …

Old-fashioned hobbies are certainly making a comeback, and one neuroscientist claimed that there’s one that can regulate your nervous system in a way that others just can’t. When life seems to be hitting you hard, instead of taking out the knitting needles, take out a book instead.  It may feel like your hobbies are just things that you enjoy in your free time, but depending on what you choose to do, they can also be extremely beneficial for your health and well-being. In fact, a study published in Nature Medicine found that simply having any kind of hobby can do this. Some hobbies are considered more old-fashioned than others, and are even thought of as that thing your grandma does for fun, so they’ve lost some of the popularity they previously had. However, reading, even though a lot of people don’t give it much thought these days, has been scientifically proven to be one of the best ways to prepare yourself for absolutely anything life may throw at you.
