Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a type of depression that comes and goes in a seasonal pattern. SAD is sometimes known as "winter depression" because the symptoms are usually more apparent and more severe during the winter. Symptoms of SAD can include: - a persistent low mood - a loss of pleasure or interest in normal everyday activities - irritability - feelings of despair, guilt and worthlessness - feeling lethargic (lacking in energy) and sleepy during the day - sleeping for longer than normal and finding it hard to get up in the morning - craving carbohydrates and gaining weight You can visit the link to learn more: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/seasonal-affective-disorder-sad/ #seasonalaffectivedisorder #symptoms #ageingissues #ActiveAgeing #ageinggracefully #BihaniSocialVenture #mentalhealth

Did you know? Headache, stomach problems, shortness of breath, and general physical tension can all be symptoms of #depression, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. #ActiveAgeing #Ageing #ageinggracefully #SocialInclusion #BihaniSocialVenture

Our heartfelt thanks to the team at @the_himalayantimes for the coverage.Read more at: http://tiny.cc/4xljez "New demographic and migration patterns have separated Nepali families and led to the building of networks within their community to fulfill multi-generational responsibilities. Additionally, there are a growing number of senior citizens in the valley who live without their children and members of the family due to retirement, relocation, health status or family members’ migration/busy lifestyles. Many of these senior citizens have led accomplished lives and careers in various sectors both domestically and abroad but have no outlet or have reduced outlet, to share their expertise with the younger generations outside their own family." - Bihani Social Venture On Friday, 27 September 2019, Bihani Social Venture hosted Creating Community as Family through Multi-generational Networks, an interactive panel session at USEF-Nepal EducationUSA Advising Center, alongside Haley Sanner, an American Fulbright Graduate Student Researcher, who partnered with Bihani to conduct her research on inter-generational house sharing with focus on Nepal. The panelists for the session were: Pragyaa Rai - Apeiron in Nepal , Shrada Gurung - Mitini Nepal page, Mun Maya Rawal - Himalayan Children's Charities and Sazae Shilpakar - Rigel Girls Hostel. The goal of the session was to develop sustainable evidence based actionable steps to expand Bihani’s Saathi Ko Saathi (A Friend for a Friend - An innovative multi-generational relationship network that creates community as an additional support) and Resource Pool (focussing on the skills and knowledge of our members and creating their profiles as experts). The ultimate aim being - to create meaningful multi-generational relationships through exchange of knowledge and advice, help/ mentoring/ guidance, visits or even provision of accommodation, for instance, where communities also become families helping build and contribute towards a sustainable future for those involved.
