Dealing with health problems can be difficult, but it is even worse when you feel like you can’t talk about it. While society is very open to talking about things like cancer, heart attacks, and other serious health conditions, some incredibly common problems are almost taboo. Here are four health concerns that we need to be more open to talking about.

Good read
Good article another health concern that has become a lot more common is anxiety. That too is a subject most people don’t want to talk about.
Keep talking
Stau heathy
Good to learn about these issues.
Nice to know
TMI
how TMI? Stigma in society makes people hide things. Infertility yes I’d more personal but everything else should not be discouraged in discussion. Talking leads to getting helpbleads to getting issue(s) resolved.
Good Read, the only other issue that is a concern not talked about would be anxiety, it’s a big one hopefully next time!
Anxiety and mental health in general.
Good things to read

After reading this article it is encouraging to know that just listening to someone without judging can help someone.
Depression definitely.
Give me my diamonds “Tapjoy”! Just once maybe you could give them to me as I deserve without making me jump through hoops! With “ proof” then having to wait again…. do your advertisers know how bad you try to screw us… I bet they don’t make you “prove” I read their artical probably clicked on an add!
Is there any other readers on here from one of the games? If so do you have the same issue? I keep going for the darn rewards hoping I’ll get them in time to get through a challenge… & I keep getting disappointed & frustrated when I don’t! New players beware!!!!
Yes! I keep reading this article and never get the reward – at least I learn something. *shrugs*
Thanks

Isolation from illness adds to insult to injury. I had to find a mental therapist so I wouldn’t punch out arrogant, harmful WHITECOATS.
All 4 are very real concerns in society today!
I agree.
Very interesting
Most definitely issues which should allow Frank discussions
Yup
Shoot eyes give me the diamonds why do this to players when they read and are promised then nothing ?
This company, weekday times, is a real master of this. Then you have to contact design homes and complain.
People need to be educated.
Yes they do

People don’t understand severe depression. They say that it’s only as bad as we want it to be. I wish that were true.
Large population have no idea the intensity and how debilitating depression is
Thanks for FYI. Interesting
I totally understand because I have hard time talking to others about my problems even my parents .
STD is everywhere , be care ladies and gentlemen .
Great article
The sad part of any of it is that many people that suffer anything always feel alone especially depression. Taboo is such an awful thing but yet very real!!

If you can’t trust your doctor, who can you trust? I’m glad the article encourages talking to your Dr. Kinda surprised about infertility, at this day in age, being on the list.
our children need to to be educated about using condoms

This is so good
Stupid article

Another taboo topic is impotence. Many men with medical conditions or on certain medications, suffer from ED and they definitely don’t talk about it!
STD very scary and it’s so hard to find honest person anymore
Found this to be informative and accurate. There is so much stigma people relate to some of these issues. I feel more education touching on these subjects would be beneficial.
This article is informative and accurate. I believe education on most issues would benefit many.

I found the article lacking in depth. Disappointing.

Definitely a moot subject
Yes I agree, people need to be more accepting and listen and not judge or try to fix others. That is unless they are asking for advice specially. We need to be there for each other.
Topics to get real about.
Diamonds for meeeee
These concerns or more common than people think. It’s important to talk about them.

Always good info out there to be had.
It is nice to have someone to talk to who understands depression, but what do you do when you recognize depression in someone you love but they don’t want to “admit” they’re “suffering from depression” ?
What’s really hard to do, is to try and talk to your doctor about certain things and then come to find out that they really don’t care, and then they make you feel bad. I have had a few like that in the past. Depression, and STD ‘s, and even being Infertal, they all are really serious health topics that need to be dealt with, not with drugs though, yeah, some help but it’s the Subconscious part that needs to be dealt with.
I think it’s great to talk to someone about these topics
Good
Interesting
It’s sad that we have to be worried about discussing any of these things…even with a doctor 🙁

Most people have at least one of these
The fear of stigma is associated with admitting you have one of these problems.
Diamonds please

Four relevant topics. How disappointing that an emotional health issue like depression remains on this list. It’s terrible that the stigma persists. A diabetic requires insulin, an asthmatic an inhaler etc. When it is a PHYSICAL compromise then there is plenty of support for that individual or group.
Different story it’s an EMOTIONAL compromise. Voices lower, to a hushed tone one might use when discussing a scandalous type event or the individual takes a denial approach an d is resistive to treatment. Truth be told is that depression IS a PHYSICAL compromise for many where by the brain / body either cannot produce enough serotonin a neurotransmitter required to maintain a healthy level of emotional balance or the neurons, receptors, synapses occuring within the brain need some help to improve the interactions each one plays. Almost like when railroad tracks need a switch flipped to change the direction and ensure a smooth, strong reconnection of the track or else the train will derail and all the carnage that follows. However, there is no bloodwork to measure or quantify what is occuring in the brain and that is the problem right there! There is still a significant portion of society that fear what they cannot see or require a tangible source or a measuring tool of validation. One might liken it to why some fear dying which can then be sometimes correlated to that of limited / lack of faith . On that note though, I can count on both hands and more the people I know who confirm they have a strong faith in God, heaven and eternal life. Yet, these same people fear and talk in ‘hushed tones’ when choosing to gossip about a member of the family / community who may be struggling with an emotional health issue. Perhaps that person could benefit from a casserole dropped off, prayers of support or some other assistance just as the individual with the broken leg or back etc related to the horrific accident that occured. Maybe, a detailed train … hmm? Let’s ponder that …

Issue won’t go away unless you seek the professional that can help
We suffer from the lack of knowledge.
I am glad depression is talked about more openly
True
Wowasw
I agree.
I struggle with depression myself and can understand the stigma surrounding it to the point that I have often stopped my meds and become sick again.
Does incontinence include Crohns.
That’s rather sad guys
I understand
They really need help
Depression is sad
Great to know this stuff
Do you have to comment to get diamonds?
Nice
I understand why it is hard for people to discuss. I suffer from depression and only my my immediate family realizes.
I guess people just don’t like to talk about it becuase it’s awkward? Like saying I have STDs, yes I know we learned it in school when we were younger but it is awkward.
