988 Hotline

 Mental Health & Emotional Crisis Hotline 

Dial 988

Those seeking support during a mental health or emotional crisis may dial 988 to connect to a nationwide support network beginning tomorrow. The transition to a simplified three-digit number is meant to increase access to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline and will operate similar to 911.

 

The move was facilitated by almost $300M in federal funding to both expand telephone infrastructure and increase call center staff. Via the network, trained counselors at more than 180 centers will be available over phone, text, or chat—users may call on behalf of themselves or others. The current 10-digit number has received more than 20 million calls since it was launched in 2005.

 

Suicide was one of the three leading causes of death in the US for those between 10 and 24 years of age in 2020 and claimed nearly 46,000 lives that year (see data)—almost double the number of homicides.

Hypnotherapy for Sleep can help increase deep restful sleep.

Melatonin, Magnesium, Theanine, and Tryptophan bring Sleep.

The natural human circadian rhythm cycle is 24.2 hours long.

Sleep is closely connected to Anxiety, Depression and Stress.

Theanine can be found in tea.


fMRI: 2 key regions of the brain : Amygdala which directs emotional responses, in the prefrontal cortex, is responsible for emotional regulation, decisions making, and critical thinking. 


Deep-sleep stage called slow-wave sleep, is linked to strong activity in the Prefrontal Cortex and lower anxiety.  


Slow-wave sleep resets the a balance between the sympathetic nervous system (guardian of the fight or flight response), and the Parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest).


Stress and anxiety during waking hours activate the sympathetic system. But the parasympathetic system dominates slow-wave sleep, when heart rate slows and blood pressures drops. Sleep disturbances rob our body of this soothing cycle.


Circadian rhythm is governed by the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus, a group of cells in the hypothalamus that receive input from light-sensitive neurons.


The right amount of sleep varies by a person’s age, adults from 18 to 64 need seven to nine hours per night, according to the National Sleep Foundation.


It typically takes an adult between 10 to 20 minutes to fall asleep.


A night of poor sleep lowers pain tolerance the following day by 15%.


10% of Americans experience chronic insomnia, according to the CDC.



Keeping the same sleep schedule every day, creating a relaxing bedtime routine, maintaining a cool bedroom, and avoiding screen time before bed all aid sleep.


Hypnotherapy for Sleep can help increase deep restful sleep.
