Depression Symptoms and Signs and Help

noreply@blogger.com (The Whizz) — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 06:57:00 +0000

Symptoms of Depression - How to Spot the Signs and Where to Get Help

Depression is a debilitating illness experienced by many people in New Zealand. About 15% of the population are diagnosed with severe depression. 25 percent of the population will have a depressive episode at some time in their lives. Women are thought to be twice as likely to experience depression as men.

Physical and chemical changes such as menopause can bring about depression. Depleted levels of Serotonin in the brain can lead to feelings of low mood. Winter months mean less exposure to sunshine and can lead to less Vitamin D in the body.

Depression is often a grief related response to unexpected changes that occur in one's life. Loss of a relationship, a job or a loved one can all trigger depression. Other common causes of depression are bullying, health issues, family crises and family relationship difficulties. Feeling low at these times is natural and part of the healing process.

However, if the low mood persists and can not be shaken then treatment for depression may need to be sought to avoid the development of severe depression.

There are many common signs and symptoms of depression apart from the obvious low mood and sadness. If you are experiencing depression you may notice some or all of these signs pertain to you or someone you know:

Loss of interest in normal pleasurable activities
Difficulty concentrating
Harder to make everyday decisions
Irritability
Feeling tired and without energy
Changes in sleep patterns - oversleeping or lack of sleep
Overeating or undereating
Loss of libido and interest in sex
Avoidance of others
Feelings of worthlessness
Low self esteem
Suicidal thoughts and thoughts about death
Loss of motivation
Severely critical of self
Increased levels of anxiety

If you are experiencing these depression symptoms or you know someone who is get help. Visit you local GP. Depression and anxiety are easily treated with medication. Alternative natural remedies like St John's Wort is also effective. Counselling is another good option. Many people report that a combination of both medication and therapy is helpful in coming to understand what is troubling them.

Collecting NZ McDonalds Happy Meal Toys

noreply@blogger.com (The Whizz) — Sat, 21 Mar 2009 06:56:00 +0000

Do your kids love McDonalds happy meal toys? On family outings do you call in at McDonalds, KFC or Burger King and come away with the latest happy meal or kids meal toys? Collecting fast food toys has become one of the world's fastest growing hobbies. And it's not hard to see why with new toy themes virtually every month most of which are tie-ins with Hollywood blockbuster movies like Star Wars Clone Wars, Kung Fu Panda, Madagscar 2, Indiana Jones, Iron Man, Spiderman, Hotel for Dogs.

Where to Find Fast Food Toys
If you or your kids are keen on collecting fast food toys chances are there are at least a few toys in your collection already. To add to your toy collection your friends and family are a good place to start. Most people are happy to give these toys away by the boxful so take them off their hands with a smile. Try your neighbours there is probably someone in your street who will be delighted to see them go to a good home.

After exhausting everyone you know try secondhand or op shops, garage sales, school fairs and galas for more collectable toys. You can even buy McDonalds, Burger King, KFC, Subway toys on Trademe New Zealand's leading auction website but prices can be steep sometimes and it pays to know what you are buying. You can also buy fast food toys from sites such as Toy Collector NZ. Other sources are international online auction sites like Ebay and Oztion.

How Do I Know What Toys are Available and When?
McDonalds New Zealand have a website where you can check what toys are coming up next. There are also some fun activities for kids on the website. For a more informative survey of what is available check out Blog Toy Collector New Zealand. At Blog Toy Collector New Zealand you will find a comprehensive commentary on past and current fast food toys from all the major fast food outlets: McDonalds, Burger King, KFC, Subway. You will also find out about other collectable toys including service station, confectionary and cereal toys. If you are an international visitor you could try Toy Alert too for up-to-date images and information about new toy releases

How much are McDonalds Toys Worth?
Most loose toys from fast food outlets aren't worth much more than 20 cents a piece. Toys that are MIP (mint in pack) in most cases have a greater value than pre-loved toys usually somewhere between $1-$2 each. Unless you have a good reason to remove toys from their pack, like play with them for example, it is better to leave them unopened. Toys with play wear such as chipping, scratching etc have no value at all. Some early McDonalds MIP toys are worth up to about $20 each based on scarcity. You can find details about some of these at Thorndon Antiques and Collectables.

From time to time McDonalds toys have been released in large sets in New Zealand. 101 Dalmations, 102 Dalmations, Snoopy's Round the World Tour and Disney Millenium Collectables are all cases in point. These larger sets are often sold in special numbered collector boxes. For instance a 102 Dalmations set mint in gift box is valued around NZ$150.

Collecting fast food toys can be a fun and engrossing hobby. They are cheap to collect and if you eat a lot of fast food anyway they don't cost you anything beyond the $5 or so for a McDonalds happy meal or a Burger King kids meal. Some toy collectors differentiate by only collecting superhero toys or movie and TV toys. The choice of how much and exactly what you collect is up to you. Many fast food toys look good on display particularly character toys such as Burger King's various Simpsons series which are manufactured with collectors in mind. Why not give fast food toy collecting a go and have some fun trying to match up the sets.

Buy Cheap Glasses Online and Save $$$

noreply@blogger.com (The Whizz) — Sat, 21 Mar 2009 04:00:00 +0000

The internet has opened up the possibility of buying glasses online and saving yourself megabucks on frames and lenses. You can now buy a decent pair of specs from anywhere between $20-$100. The choice of eyewear online is vast and growing all the time. There is also a wide range of prescription sunglasses available. If you are in the market for a new pair of eye glasses make sure you check online first as you could save yourself hundreds of dollars.

You Need a Current Prescription
To buy your eye glasses on line you will need to have an up-to-date prescription. If your examination was less than a year ago you can get a copy of your prescription from your optometrist. If your last eye examination was more than a year ago you will probably need to have a new one as your eyes may have changed significantly in that time. A standard eye test is likely to cost you around $65-80.

Along with your prescription you need to know the distance in millimeters between your pupils. Sometimes you may get two numbers which when added together make up the pupil distance. If for some reason you have a problem with gaining access you can measure the pupil distance yourself with a ruler but it won't be exact.

Shop Around Locally First
It pays to try on as many different pairs of glasses as you can before beginning your online search. This will give you a good idea of the style and colour of the frames that suit you. If you need progressives like I do you will need to be aware that not all frames are suitable for these type of eye glasses. If you find a particular pair that you fall in love with write down the manufacturer name and frame measurement which you will find on the inside of the frame.

How to Select the Right Frame
Choosing a frame that suits you is half the battle of buying glasses online. Here are some general principles when selecting frames.

Two Golden Rules for Selecting Frames

Avoid choosing frames that are of a similar shape to your face. For instance don't go for a round frame, if you have a round face.

Make sure that your frame isn`t wider than the widest part of your face. Select a small frame if you have a smaller sized head and a larger frame if you have a larger sized head.

Here is some advice given by Global Eye Glasses on how to select a frame

Long Thin Face - large frame in round or rectangular shape. This will make your face appear wider and shorter

Square face - round frame to soften the angular look of your face

Round face - rectangular frame

Heart-shaped face (a wide forehead and a small chin) - frame wider at the bottom in comparison to the top

Diamond-shaped face (narrow forehead, wide temples and an angular chin) - small, oval frame. This will minimize the horizontal distance between your temples.

Oval face - any type of frame as your face is perfectly balanced at the top and bottom!

Consider the Look You Want to Portray

Serious, Conservative, Businessperson Look

Men
Shape of Frames: uncomplicated shapes eg ovals and rectangles
Materials: thin plastics, titanium and stainless steel
Colour: silver, brown and black

Women
Uncomplicated shapes: eg ovals and rectangles
Materials: thin plastics, titanium and stainless steel
Colour: brown, golden, burgundy and coffee

Student/Office Worker - Basic but Stylish Look
Shape of Frames: oval or a rectangular
Colour: plum, deep red or soft green and black

Senior Citizen/Younger Look

Men
Shape of Frames: bold, rectangular eye frames
Colour: avoid colors such as black and silver

Women (Take Years Off)
Shape of Frames: soft, cat-eye frames
Colours: burgundy and dark brown, avoid colours such as black and silver

Professional/Trendy Fashionable Look

Shape of Frames: unusual, large-sized frames in thick plastic
Colour: blue, green or purple, color laminations

Frame Measurement Considerations
While doing your research locally take notice of the following with respect to the frame measurements and size:

Temple Width: length of frame side arms

Lens Width: may be called eye size

Lens Height: make sure you get this right or you may have the annoying problem of being able to see below the lenses when carrying out everyday tasks

The measurements for my glasses for instance are: 135, 52-16

Also find out the bridge size i.e. the distance between lenses if you can

Searching Online for Eye Glasses
Once you know more or less the look and the frame measurements you need you are ready to hop online and do a search. If you are having trouble deciphering your prescription or you need help with your frame measurements most online eye glass retailers have good help sections to guide you in choosing the right frame.

If you know exactly what you want typing the brand and frame size into Google or other search engine should help you find what you are looking quickly. If not check out the following sites for deals on eye glasses beginning as low as $7.99

New Zealand

International
GlassyEyes

Other Considerations Before Placing Your Order Online
You will probably be asked to choose your lenses. Middle of the road thickness of lenses should be the minimum you consider. This will turn a $20 pair of glasses into maybe a $50-$60 pair but it will be worth it. Likewise plump for non-glare coating which will add some dollars to the price but will cut down reflections and ensure others can actually see your eyes. If you are buying these as a second pair of glasses you might decide to dispense with the extras which are nice to have but not essential.

Ordering Your Eye Glasses Online
With such a big choice online for eye wear it can be a daunting task finding a pair of glasses that will suit you. Be prepared to spend some time exploring options so set aside the time to shop. One tip for keeping your prescription information and frame measurements together while you shop is to create a small text file in Notepad or similar and keep it open while surfing the net. Some online stores provide advanced search features so you can key in the specifics to narrow your search. At the very least the dimensions of the frame will be displayed beneath each pair of glasses pictured so you will need to refer constantly to your frame details.

Ordering and paying online is simple with a credit card. Shipment I have found to be pretty speedy - a few weeks max. At prices as low as these $50-$80 you might consider buying two or more pairs to complement your wardrobe. Think of how liberating it would be to get up in the morning and choose between several sets of glasses depending on what you are wearing.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Buying Online
Cost is the most obvious benefit of buying your eye glasses online as the savings are considerable. Quality is generally pretty high and most problems stem from poor frame choice rather than faulty workmanship. You need to be organised or you can waste a lot of time surfing . Most online retailers have a right of return policy if you are not completely satisfied so you can have some piece of mind that you are not going to be stuck with unsuitable frames if you are not satisfied with your choice. Having said that though it pays to make your selection carefully, double check all specifications and you do your homework beforehand. If you approach buying eye glasses systematically you will be able to take advantage of a large selection of well priced eye glasses with relative ease.

With the advent of online shopping eye glasses are no longer an expensive item so do yourself a favour and treat yourself to some designer eyewear at a fraction of the cost you would normally have paid. Also watch out for online specials I know of one New Zealand online retailer that was recently offerring 500 few pairs of glasses in a bid to attract custom.
