  Hi. And welcome to Debbie on the dock.

• 00:03 - 00:03

  I'm Dr Debbie Lines.

• 00:04 - 00:06

  And I'm really excited to be with you today.

• 00:06 - 00:08

  Here on the World Mental Health Day.

• 00:09 - 00:13

  You know, I am a strength based psychologist.

• 00:13 - 00:16

  Which means instead of looking at what's wrong with you,

• 00:17 - 00:18

  I look at what's right with you.

• 00:18 - 00:19

  How do we do that?

• 00:19 - 00:24

  We develop skills, strategies and techniques in a toolbox to

• 00:25 - 00:28

  help you be healthy And well, here's we're gonna do

• 00:28 - 00:31

  today. My intention is to give you a skill that

• 00:31 - 00:32

  you could go away with.

• 00:33 - 00:35

  So have you ever had days where your mood is

• 00:35 - 00:36

  up? Your mood is down.

• 00:36 - 00:39

  Your mood is all around and you can't figure out

• 00:39 - 00:41

  why your sister's bugging you.

• 00:43 - 00:44

  Your boyfriend's bugging you.

• 00:45 - 00:47

  Your husband isn't doing anything that you need him to

• 00:48 - 00:49

  do. School work.

• 00:50 - 00:52

  Yuck! Here's what I dio.

• 00:53 - 00:53

  Here's what I think.

• 00:54 - 00:56

  Before I say anything, I halt.

• 00:58 - 00:59

  Am I hungry?

• 01:00 - 01:00

  Am I angry?

• 01:01 - 01:02

  Am I lonely?

• 01:03 - 01:03

  Am I tired?

• 01:05 - 01:05

  I halt.

• 01:07 - 01:08

  Let's talk about that for one second.

• 01:09 - 01:09

  H hungry.

• 01:10 - 01:11

  Have I fueled my body?

• 01:12 - 01:15

  If I don't fuel my body, then my mood is

• 01:15 - 01:17

  gonna be all over the place and I make it

• 01:17 - 01:19

  irritable. I'll get low blood sugar.

• 01:20 - 01:20

  I make it shaky.

• 01:21 - 01:22

  I definitely am not in a good mood.

• 01:23 - 01:24

  Then am I angry?

• 01:25 - 01:26

  Have you ever been frustrated?

• 01:26 - 01:28

  You've just awaken in the morning and you're not sure

• 01:29 - 01:30

  why. But everything is bugging.

• 01:30 - 01:32

  You might be angry.

• 01:33 - 01:34

  How about lonely?

• 01:35 - 01:38

  You know, with the pandemic and Covad 19 I think

• 01:38 - 01:42

  a lot of people are feeling loneliness and feeling isolated.

• 01:44 - 01:46

  That definitely isn't good for your health and well being.

• 01:47 - 01:52

  When you're lonely, your mood could be all over the

• 01:52 - 01:55

  place and last but not least, tired.

• 01:57 - 01:59

  You know, sleep is one of the most important things

• 02:00 - 02:01

  for your health and well being.

• 02:01 - 02:05

  All of us, whether you're five or 10 or 50

• 02:06 - 02:08

  need 5.5 hours of squished.

• 02:09 - 02:10

  See, uh, sleep.

• 02:11 - 02:15

  And that is consolidated sleep for cognitive restoration.

• 02:16 - 02:21

  That means we are rested, our brains can work, and

• 02:21 - 02:23

  we're good to go for another day.

• 02:24 - 02:29

  So I ask myself, and I ask you when you

• 02:29 - 02:31

  really wonder what is wrong with my mood and my

• 02:31 - 02:37

  sad my hopeless, helpless, depressed halt and ask yourself one

• 02:37 - 02:38

  of these four things.

• 02:38 - 02:40

  Could I possibly be hungry?

• 02:42 - 02:44

  maybe angry, maybe lovely.

• 02:45 - 02:46

  Maybe Just tired.

• 02:48 - 02:50

  I want to thank all of you for joining me

• 02:50 - 02:51

  here again.

• 02:52 - 02:55

  I'm Debbie on the dock and Happy World Mental Health

• 02:55 - 02:56

  Day halt!
