Hallucination



Hallucination a psychological disease in which individual perceive of something which is not present .it could be visual auditory olfactory tactile and many others. A small amount of hallucinations is natural in normal person but severe hallucination lead to severe effects for the patients. It occurs due to depression, sadness, dehydration or hunger. A friend of mine was affected with hallucination firstly she used to see a person which other didn't see she took it light but it got severe and worse in the extreme stage she used to talk to him .People consider that there was some black magic on her parents took her to different ulmas and Baba ji but the result was zero I discuss the issue with my brother he told me to take her to psychiatrist but the major problem was to convince her parents for that after tough Phase. We (A group of friends) convince her parents Dr. Jibran a very competent doctor gave her cognitive behavioral therapy counselling session and some medication within a year she was very much better and now she is taking some little therapies according to doctor she would be alright within a few months.
One of the largest faced in treating the Hallucination is that people are hesitant to admit that they have this problem. So it’s better that family members, friends, and colleagues to educate themselves so that they can better understand and take good care of the patient. There are some ways to treat Hallucination like:

  • .      Engage your patient
  • .      Develop coping strategies
  • .      Ignoring the voices
  •       Medications
  •       Singing songs
One can treat Hallucination by themselves by first understanding the nature of it for example hearing the voices comes under Auditory Hallucination, seeing lights comes under Visual Hallucination etc.
Secondly continuously checking temperature because high temperature leads to Hallucination. If fever gets high like above 140 degree Celsius then one should immediately go to hospital or to consult the doctor. If high fever occurs then drink more fluids like water or juices and regularly monitor the temperature. During this patient should take more rest and sleep better.
So with proper medication, support and care of people patient’s condition gets better.

Obsessive Chronic Disorder

Obsessive Chronic Disorder(OCD) is a common disorder in which a person has is uncontrollable and recurring thoughts and the patient used to repeat the action again and again
A friend of mine has an OCD she used to wash her hand and face again and again.Even after her hand touches to  the other person or to the floor or to the cupboard when she come to the university she was very much worried about her hand and feet and face after taking the lecturers she rush  to the washroom to wash. Most of the time she was seen in the washroom washing the hands and face she become in a discomfort state every time .One day in a psychological conference in a University she attend a lecture of a psychologist she was very much inspired by his lecture she take his appointment and visit his clinic psychologist give him therapies and instructions one of the major instruction was to not to wash hand even after touching the floor or before eating firstly she hesitated and reluctant but she has to follow the instruction of a psychologist she force herself by not thinking about this topic again and again. Some of the therapies were used by the psychologist on her we also help her to get rid of this by forcing her not to wash the hands again and again after taking a therapies now she is alright and following the instruction of psychologist now she only used to wash your hand and face when they are actually dirty and need to be washed so this disorder can easily be eradicated and a person comes to hers normal state.
Psychotherapy is an effective way to treat the patients suffering from OCD. So basically this disorder is not untreatable or we cannot say that people suffering from this disorder are psychopath, this is a treatable condition and with care we can take them toward  normal life

Effect of Schizophrenia in student

Schizophrenia is a psychological disease and it affect an individual mental health as well as negative effect on his social life but it is more worse in the case of student who are schizophrenic.The student is unable to concentrate on studies and loose their friends as well. They always want to live alone and hurry to go to home to hide themselves from the world and to spend time alone. a major cause of this loneliness is that firstly  they do not like to socialize secondly friends and family laugh on them. Schizophrenic patient could recover easily with the help of family and friends and teachers .Teachers should give special attention to them on studies while delivering lecture and should also help them through extra attention in their social life. A friend of mine have the same illness she was unable to concentrate on studies and loose her friends as well. She always want to live alone and try to hide her from the world and to spend time alone. She do not like to socialize. In her case she was doing  thesis and as her supervisor has less time for every student she always scold her as she was unable to get the point. They are unaware of that a student is schizophrenic and  the student is unable to complete their work. friends and family are the major support system to help the schizophrenic students.We force her  to socialize and help her out of this situation by helping her in the studies and listen to her thoughts and help her to believe that she would be alright by using the medicine and using the therapy. We used to communicate the information on her health to the teachers and supervises. all of these factors was helpful for the her and now she is improving.
