Samhainophobia
Samhainophobia
is described as an intense fear of Halloween, and it can bring about panic attacks in people who have it. The word came from the old Celtic festival of
Samhain, which marked the end of the Celtic year. They had this belief that the
ghosts of the dead return to the Earth on this very day.
Depression and Exercise
The idea that exercise has the
ability to improve symptoms of depression is actually not new. Hippocrates is
said to be the first Western physician to ever prescribe this treatment 2,500
years ago, and doctors have been suggesting exercise to patients ever since. If
you are diagnosed with major depression, exercise may not be the only treatment
that you require, but it can totally help in your treatment plan.
