Stress doesn’t stay in the mind; it often shows up in the body. Headaches, fatigue, stomach issues, muscle tension, or sleep problems can be signs of psychological distress, even when medical tests look normal. These somatic symptoms are real and meaningful. When emotions aren’t expressed, the body often speaks instead. Listening with awareness and self-compassion is the first step toward balance. https://www.psychologs.com/somatic-symptoms-of-stress-how-psychological-distress-manifests-in-the-body/ #psychology
A child’s brain isn’t just growing, it’s being built. In the early years, nutrition works like raw material, shaping neural connections that influence learning, memory, emotions, and behaviour for life. What children eat during critical growth windows matters far more than we often realise. Early meals don’t just fill stomachs; they wire the brain. https://www.psychologs.com/why-childhood-nutrition-shapes-the-brain-more-than-adult-diet/ #psychology
Language does more than help us communicate; it shapes how we think, feel, and perceive the world. From language development in childhood to brain areas that process meaning and speech, words play a powerful role in shaping the mind. https://www.psychologs.com/language-development-and-brain-networks-a-cognitive-and-psychological-analysis/ #psychology
The diathesis–stress model explains how mental health disorders develop through the interaction of vulnerability and life stress. An underlying predisposition does not cause illness on its own; stress activates it, influencing whether symptoms emerge. This model highlights why the same experience affects people differently. ⚖️ It’s not about weakness. It’s about vulnerability meeting stress. https://www.instagram.com/p/DVAh14xlGr7/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== #psychology
Our memories are not fixed snapshots; they evolve with time. 🧠✨ This research reveals how ageing, emotion, and personal meaning shape the way we remember life’s most important moments. https://www.psychologs.com/how-life-events-shape-autobiographical-memory-across-the-lifespan/ #psychology
Gen Z and young millennials didn’t ask for a world on fire, but they’re living it anyway. From pandemic pauses to climate grief, AI uncertainty, and social media overwhelm, this generation carries the weight of crises unseen by older generations. Yet, they persist: resilient, socially conscious, and emotionally articulate. It’s time we give them more than platitudes, spaces to heal, tools to thrive, and permission to not be okay. 💛 https://www.psychologs.com/a-world-they-never-asked-for-the-emotional-cost-of-growing-up-in-crisis/ #psychology
Job hopping isn’t just about better pay or titles; it can be a journey of self-discovery. 🌱 Every career change teaches you about your strengths, values, and what truly fits your identity. Reflect, explore, and grow, because success is not a single path; it’s alignment with who you are becoming. https://www.psychologs.com/career-transitions-and-identity-development-how-job-hopping-becomes-a-path-to-self-discovery/ #psychology
Psychosis is not only shaped by thoughts or beliefs, but it is also shaped by powerful mental images. New research on imagery-focused therapy (iMAPS) shows that helping people understand and reshape distressing mental images can reduce paranoia and emotional distress. This approach highlights an important shift in mental health care: addressing what people see in their mind, not just what they think. https://www.psychologs.com/imagery-therapy-for-psychosis-helping-people-gain-control-over-disturbing-mental-images/ #psychology
