If you get struck by icy shivers at the very thought of moving outside the coverage provided by your mobile phone operator or being suddenly cut off from accessing your trusty form of pocket-sized portable communication, then chances are you’re suffering from “nomo-phobia".Some 48 percent of women and 58 percent of men revealed that instances such as a flat battery charge, no phone credit, network interruption or coverage problems had led them to experience moments of extreme anxiety. More than 50 percent said their reliance stretched to the point where they never turned their phone off.
Possible ways recommended for better avoiding the related stresses of suddenly finding yourself cut off from accessing your phone include keeping credit levels near constant and carrying a pre-paid phone card in order to make calls should your mobile be out of commission, or perhaps even stolen.

COURAGE
By Fion Lim
Courage is not only gifted to the few brave ones,It is something that lies within you,Where you can draw upon its strength and power,In times of crisis, fears and decisions.
Courage is not something mysterious or unattainable,It is something that you can exercise in your daily life choices,You can let it bring to you untraveled paths,And make you more conscious and aware of your life.
Courage does not have to roar to be heard,It does not mean being totally fearless and being invincible,It could mean taking actions, taking risks, taking a stand,Standing up for yourself, standing by your choices,And sticking to your dreams when others jeered.

There are two major psychotic disorders; mood disorders and schizophrenia.
When a person experiences a severe disruption in mood or emotional balance, we call the problem a mood disorder (formerly called an affective disorder). When emotions show an all time low and we lose interest in life, we experience depression.

Anxiety is a normal response to stress or danger. At times it is helpful because it can help prepare the body for action, and it can improve performance in a range of situations. Anxiety becomes a problem when it is experienced intensely and it persistently interferes with a person's daily life.
