Scotch Q. Ennis's Articles

  • Genital Herpes Overview
    Genital herpes is transmitted through intercourse, and is therefore properly categorized as an STD. There's been some suggestion that genital herpes can be transmitted through other means besides intercourse, through secondary means, but the evidence doesn't support this theory. Genital herpes is likely the most common STD: a safe estimate is that twenty percent of adults have it.
  • Social Anxiety Disorder - The Lonely Disease
    Unfortunate though it may be, painful, frightening medical conditions do exist. Some of these conditions are commonly known, some we learn about and then never want to think of again. We keep our minds clear of thinking about horrible medical conditions because they scare us. We don't want those awful things out there happening to us.
  • Social Anxiety In Specific Circumstances
    Social anxiety disorder is a frequently found condition: depending on which numbers are being quoted, social anxiety disorder affects between seven and fourteen percent of the US population. There are only two mental health disorders that appear more frequently in the US than social anxiety: alcoholism and depression.
  • Emotional Self-Help
    Mood disorders are a particularly common condition. For one example, the thinking is that twenty percent of the adult US population has depression. Putting that into numbers, tens of millions of people in the US alone are depressed. Other emotional disorders -- generalized anxiety, social anxiety, and others -- have similar affection rates to depression. Mood disorder affliction may not be epidemic, but it is a serious situation that brings real pain, real suffering, and real loss.
  • Considering Mental Health
    Mental health is a term thrown about a lot -- true particularly over the last few decades -- but the full meaning of mental health is typically overlooked. When casual discussions of mental health occur, the focus is often on serious mental disorders: schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, sociopathic behavior, and even Alzheimer's. What's left out in such conversations is that mental health is a factor is all of our lives: every one of us.
  • Considering Weight
    Though it may be hard to imagine, there was a time when excess body fat was not a stigma at all; in fact, excess body fat was once considered an indicator of status. The thinking went that a person with body fat had the means to eat well and to do so regularly. It should be noted that this perception existed during a time and in places where food shortages and famine could and did occur.
  • Considering Obesity
    The word obesity gets often thrown around, but what is it really? What is obesity? Obesity is, in explicit terms, a description for extreme over weight. Obesity is quite prevalent, affecting almost a third of American adults -- sixty million or so people -- and roughly a billion people across the world.
