Two-three years ago, I found that people around me, friends, brothers and sisters. I want to be bored, aka ' depression '. Many people have some times that I'm tired. Some of the same time, but when I sit and talk to someone who has a real disease, I found that people with different condition. I didn't understand. People who have this disease before. I accidentally act in the wrong way. I want to help, but I do everything. Looking worse today. I want to share some thoughts and information. In case it's beneficial with depression, including close ones. Of course I'm not a doctor. I just want to tell you and talk about some aspects. If anyone has good information or helpful ways to do it. Feel free to share. It should be beneficial to many people.

...

1. Before speaking, we should listen.
People around patients with depression often judge and look at their own eyes. We always try to sedition to be strong, have goals, ask about passion, and whatever you think it will be powerful with life. Sometimes I accidentally scold. Said why he is so tired, lazy, long spine, doesn't do anything. Sometimes I encourage him to get up to do something. All of this with best wishes, but know that for patients. These things. The more it makes the situation worse because it shows the understanding of the condition he is experiencing. If someone close to be bored before he lets him do many things, we should give him a bit of how he feels about the world and our lives. To understand more

...

Lol he didn't want to be
When we listen, we will understand that the condition he is very difficult because it is an insensitive feeling about everything, no negative, no negativity, nothing, no meaning, don't want to don't want to do anything, don't want to talk to anyone, which he doesn't even want to be The more pressure in the world that everyone has to work hard, the more you feel worthless. I want to get up to work, but I don't have enough strength. Besides being tired, we still have to fight the value that society around you. It's a time that is not easy. I am.

...

Lol he may not be stressed by anything. Suddenly it happens.
Everyone has stress, but it's all caused by something. While this disease is different. Sometimes - one day this symptom happened yesterday, I still smile. Today we can't tell him. " Hey, keep thinking positive " or " just change the way of thinking, life changes " something like that. When it happens, it will last for weeks or months. During that time. Patients will be the one who don't want to do anything, whether it's work. Playing or even showing love with love is a great time of understanding and if he says " you don't understand me that's what he really wants to say

...

4. Give him time to give us time
During that time, he will change to a different person. It may be a bad person who has been active. May not be bored of work. I may not get out of bed or insomnia, no strength. Sometimes I don't think that they don't want to live. It's a time when people. All around you should give time to not try to make him get well quickly because it's impossible. But it shouldn't be more pressure or take care of it. Because this moment, he may not have much mood to interact with anyone. Give time. Him and with us.

...

Lol it's about chemicals in the brain
What we should understand is that this disease is not caused by an attitude or perspective to the world. Even when it affects the world, but the cause of the brain, there may be some chemicals in the brain that is low or some medical disorders. Still can't answer. What is the real cause of it? It may be genes or mixed environment. When we understand this, we will see that it's normal that people have some disease in some times. Comparison to cold may not be right, but think about it. Sometimes some diseases come into life. Give it time. It will slowly unfold.

...

Lol call it a disease to feel normal
When this is a symptom of a disease. Instead of a disease, we should feel like it is normal for human beings. It should not feel that we should not feel bad. We have a disease or someone beside us. Just a normal thing that happens to keep us beside each other to support and understand together.

...

7. Do you want to change the name of the disease?
I really want to rethink about this disease. The word ' depression ' makes us not want to tell anyone that I have this disease. In fact, we are not going to be depressed for the rest of my life or all the time. I want to call it ' disease. What are you tired? ' because it's temporarily tired. Well, people can be tired? It's only temporary. I will come back to have new power. Just ' I'm not ' not ' depressed ' Go forever. Don't panic.

...

Haha. Invite him to go to the doctor.
Many patients don't know that there is a disease in the world. Some people may not admit that they are in America. There is an average that each patient takes more than ten years to ask for advice from the doctor. Even going to the doctor can help you feel better. Sitting and talking. Paying medicine to balance brain chemistry, including doctor's advice is beneficial to patients. If someone close to have some symptoms, you should recommend him to go to the doctor. It's like we have a sore throat and fever. We need to find a doctor. Isn't we find a doctor? Doctor cures this disease. It's not a shocking thing. As I said it's normal. People can have a disease.

...

Haha. You are not weak. You can tell each other.
Whether we have this disease or close ones, one thing we should understand is that we are not weaker than others. It's one condition that something in the brain is unbalanced. In that condition may have an idea to compare ourselves to others, such as opening Facebook. I feel like everyone is happier than me (a little less on Facebook) or compare to myself when I'm brighter, but it's similar to when we ankle. We can't go back to being the same right away even if I speed up the day. No matter how much you speed up, open-minded talk can heal the feeling, including telling the thoughts of suicide can help reduce the risk of suicide too. The close ones should open your mind and listen and some people should open your mind to tell the feeling. People we can trust. Tell the world that I have this disease. People around you will understand that in the midst of society that don't understand. Patients will make patients feel worried. We don't dare to tell anyone. So we need more understanding in society for the story that are walking around. Inside will be told more comfortably.

...

Lol let's exercise
I found that many brothers and sisters who have a disease. Better, brighter, more power from exercise. Even if you try and do it continuously, you will slowly feel better. Exercise may cause some chemicals in the brain to add good feelings for us. Some people say that we have lived in the field before. Before we have to run for food. Now we have to sit in a narrow air conditioning room all day. It makes it unnatural. So we should find When you return to our natural activity. Exercise is a magic pill. It helps both chemicals. It helps to help healthy. If there are people close to you, try to invite them to exercise together. But don't have to much pressure. Take it slow.

...

All that I think spreading knowledge of understanding is very important. Both close level is to interaction with patients in the house. If we understand, we will treat each other better and at the level of Society is wide. If society understands, patients will dare to speak. Dare to tell others stories and feelings.

It's not strange that we have some moments to cross over. Whether at the level of family or society. I think we need understanding of each other to be beside each other to cross that time. There is still a bright tomorrow waiting. I'm still here.

If it's not too disturbing, I want to share this information to help create more understanding of this disease. If anyone has any information, please comment and tell me. It should be beneficial to everyone.

Thank youTranslated

#อย่าพยายามเมื่อเราไม่ใช่
.

กรณีพีช พชร กับ แพทรเซีย นี่ผมขอบอกเลยว่าเราไม่สามารถไปตัดสินได้แน่ๆว่าใครผิดใครถูก เพราะความเป็นจริง ความรักนี่จะบอกว่ามีปัจจัยมากมายเข้ามาเกี่ยวข้องที่จะนำพาให้คนสองคนไปกันได้ตลอดรอดฝั่งหรือไม่ ไม่ว่าจะเป็นนิสัยใจคอ ไลฟ์สไตล์ รสนิยม ความพึงพอใจต่อกันและกัน หรือบางทีเอาจริงๆมันแทบไม่มีอะไรตายตัวเลยสำหรับความรัก ถ้าอยู่มาวันนึง ฝ่ายใดฝ่ายหนึ่งจะมองว่าคนรักของเรามันไม่ใช่แล้ว ไม่ใช่ก็คือไม่ใช่ พยายามยังไงมันก็ไม่ได้ ทำดีให้ตายไม่เอาก็คือไม่เอา
#ความรักไม่ใช่รางวัลของคนทำความดี
#ความรักไม่ใช่รางวัลของคนที่มีความพยายาม
#ความรักคือนามธรรมที่ไร้เหตุผล

.
พีช พชร กับ แพทริเซีย เค้าคบกันสองคน เรื่องราวของคนสองคนเราไม่อาจจะไปตัดสินใจได้หรอกว่าใครผิดใครถูก แต่ความเชื่อของสิ่งมีชีวิตที่เรียกว่า มนุษย์ มองว่าการคบซ้อนเป็นเรื่องที่ผิด การคบคนใหม่โดยที่ยังไม่บอกเลิกคนเก่าเป็นสิ่งที่ผิด ซึ่งมองในจุดนั้น มันก็ผิดจริงๆ แต่ปัจจัยหลายๆอย่างที่เกิดขึ้นมันมีโอกาสเกิดขึ้นได้เสมอ บางครั้งความรักมันก็เหมือนลมเพลมพัดนะ อยู่ดีๆเป็นคนดีๆอยู่ดีๆ ความรักมันจะพัดอะไรเข้ามาในชีวิตก็ไม่รู้ ทุกอย่างอยู่ที่จิตใจ อยู่ที่อารมณ์ ต่อให้คนที่มันมีคนรักของดีแสนดีให้ตาย ถ้าวันนึงเกิดมีลมเพลมพัดเอาใครเข้ามาก็ไม่รู้ แล้วดันไปเกิดอารมณ์วูบวาบขึ้นมา ถึงระงับตัวไม่ให้ไป แต่ถ้าใจมันเริ่มไป เราอาจจะเริ่มมามองหาข้อด้อยของคนรักที่เราคบหาอยู่ก็ได้ มันเกิดขึ้นได้
.
ผมอยากจะบอกว่า จากบทสัมภาษณ์ ผมว่า พีช พชร เติบโต เข้าใจในความรัก และมีมุมมองที่ดีในความรักมากแล้ว อยากให้ทุกคนหาโอกาสไปฟัง และศึกษาแนวคิดทัศนคติของเค้าให้ดี ไม่ได้มาชื่นชมนะครับ แต่ถ้าทำได้แบบที่พีชบอก มันก็คือสิ่งที่ดีที่สุดเท่าที่คนๆนึงจะทำได้แล้ว
.
พีชบอกว่าพยายามแก้ไข พยายามทุกอย่างแล้ว ไม่มีใครไม่เสียใจ อย่าไปว่าอีกฝ่าย อย่าไปด่าเค้า สมัยเค้าเด็กๆเค้าก็เคยเป็น คนทุกคนก็อาจจะเคยเป็น ผมอยากจะบอกว่า การพยายามในวันที่เราไม่ใช่ มันแทบจะเป็นสิ่งที่ไร้ค่าเลย มันไม่มีค่าอะไรเลย นอกจากเอาไว้เป็นสิ่งที่ปลอบโยนเราในวันหนึ่งให้เราได้มีโอกาสบอกกับตัวเองว่า เราทำดีที่สุดแล้ว เท่านั้นเอง เท่านั้นจริงๆ
.
คนเราในวันที่ใช่ ทุกๆอย่างดีหมด แต่ถ้าวันไหนที่ไม่ใช่ ทำอะไรมันก็ผิด ทำดีแค่ไหนก็ไม่ใช่เรื่องสำคัญอะไรที่ที่จะทำให้เค้าหันมามองแล้ว ยิ่งทำดี บางคนกลับมองว่าเป็นเรื่องปกติเรื่องเคยชินจนไม่เห็นค่าไปแล้ว ไม่ใช่ก็คือไม่ใช่ อย่าพยายามกับคนที่มองว่าเราไม่ใช่แล้ว ผมอยากจะบอกว่า ความรักมันไม่มีเหตุไม่มีผล คนดีแสนดีไม่โดนเลือก บางคนไปเลือกคนเจ้าชู้ บางคนไปเลือกผู้ชายที่ชอบตบตี บางคู่ผัวตบตีซ้อมเมียบ่อยๆ มีลูกกันหัวปีท้ายปี บางคนดีแสนดีเพอเฟค แต่ไม่ใช่เค้าก็ไม่เอา ความรักมันคือนามธรรมที่ไร้เหตุผล ไม่มีบทิสูจน์ของรักแท้เลย บางคนอยู่ด้วยกันมาเป็นสี่สิบห้าสิบปี วันดีคืนดีหย่าร้างกันก็มี คู่แต่งงานมีลูกกันโตเป็นหนุ่มเป็นสาววันนึงยังนอกใจกันได้ นับภาษาอะไรกับคู่รักที่เรียกว่าแฟนที่ยังไม่ได้แต่งงานกัน มองเป็นธรรมดาโลก ก็ไม่น่าจะต้องไปหวือหวาอะไร อย่าไปตัดสินฝ่ายใดฝ่ายหนึ่ง เพราะสุดท้ายเรื่องของความรักมันก็คือเรื่องของคนสองคนอยู่ดี จริงไหม?
The origin of Peach Pache - Patricia
#อย่าพยายามเมื่อเราไม่ใช่
.

Peach Pech and Patracia. I'm telling you that we can't judge who is wrong because of reality. Love says that there are many factors involved that will be able to bring two people together or not. Neck, lifestyle, taste, satisfaction with each other, or maybe it's almost nothing dies for love. If one day, one side will think that our lover is not, it's not, it's not, it's not, it's not trying. It's not good. If you die, you won't take it.

Peach Passion and Patricia are two together. The story of two people. We can't decide who is wrong. But the belief of human beings is considered a stack of being in a relationship is wrong. The relationship is wrong. The new person doesn't break up. Old is a wrong thing. At that point, it's really wrong. But many factors that happen. There is always a chance to happen. Sometimes love is like a wind. It's just a good person. I'm suddenly a good person. Love will blow anything in life. I don't know everything At the mind, it's in the mood. Even if the person who has a lover of good things to die. If one day, there is a wind blowing. I don't know if it's a glittery emotion. I won't let you go. But if my heart starts to go. We might start looking for the inferiority of the loved one we are dating. It happens.
.
I want to say that from my interview, Peach Phatcharung grew to understand in love and have a good perspective in love. I want everyone to find a chance to listen and study their attitude. I don't come to appreciate it. But if I can do it, I'm telling you. It's the best thing one can do.
.
Peach says that he has tried to fix everything. He doesn't regret it. Don't blame the other. Don't scold him. When he was young, he could have been. I want to say that he tried on the day that we were not there is nothing worth Nothing is worth anything except to comfort us one day. Let us have a chance to tell ourselves that we did our best.
.
People on the right day, everything is good. But if you don't do anything, it's wrong. It's not important to make him look at it. The more good you do, some people see it as normal. It's not worth it. It's not trying. Don't try. Those who think that we are not. I want to say that there is no reason. There is no effect. Good person doesn't get picked. Some people go to choose. Some flirty people choose to choose. Men who like to slap. Some couples. Husband hits. They have sex often. They have kids. At the end of It's good and perfect. It's not like it. It's an unreasonable abstract. There is no monstrosity of true love. Some of us have been together for forty and fifty years. Good night. Good night. Divorce. We have a married couple, kids, One day girls cheat on each other. What language is the couple called unmarried boyfriend. Look normal. The world shouldn't be flashy. Don't judge any side because eventually love is about two people. Is it true?Translated

Hello Youtube family,

I'm a little nervous about posting today's video. I'm sorry it's not the usual chirpy type of vlog. Originally, the footage wasn't supposed to be up so early but life never goes the way we plan right?

It’s been a bit of an emotional week. Due to a missed period, I took a pregnancy test on 8th October to find out we were expecting again. Just to be sure, I sent Tim out to get more tests to be sure. Since he came back with a two-pack, I took another test and it came back positive again. With one spare, I took the other test the next day but it came back negative (note- it wasn’t morning urine). Confused- I sent the hubby to grab more. This time, he came back with a triple pack. The next test was a big fat positive. After the initial confusion, we realised we really wanted this baby and thought maybe this baby was truly meant to be.

At the same time, Tim and I didn’t want to think too much. It was very early so we knew anything could happen since 1 in 5 pregnancies end up in a miscarriage. However, it didn’t stop us from thinking of baby names and envisioning our life as a family of four.

During my photoshoot in London, I felt lightheaded and my stomach pains started to feel more intense. I thought maybe I was just over fatigued so didn’t want to worry myself too much. As I was waiting for my flight back home, I felt pressure in my lower region. I stumbled to the bathroom and realised I was bleeding. Rather than the dark brown spotting I had days ago, it was a brighter colour of red indicating fresh blood. The bleeding eventually stopped for a bit so I felt more assured but as I got out of the airplane, I felt the bleeding started to return. Since I was emotionally and physically tired from the long day, I went to to bed early with hopes that rest could maybe prevent the worse from happening. Around 6am, I woke up to more stomach pains and pressure as I went to use the bathroom, I finally accepted I was having a miscarriage.

I knew my body wasn’t in it’s best condition so in a lot of ways, I wonder if it could’ve been prevented. It’s been an emotional few days. I spent it doing some grieving and I feel a lot better now. Since I was less than 5 weeks along, I’m thankful the loss happened early. To those who have also experienced a loss, I am so so sorry and my heart is with you. Know that you are not alone. We can only try to understand that everything happens for a reason. I hope you can take comfort in your family and friends.

It made me thankful to know Isaac was born into the world safely with no complications. I know Tim and I are still young and we have more opportunities in the future to expand our family.

We were not ready for another baby and the pregnancy was definitely a shock but our early loss has made us realise that if we are blessed to get pregnant again in the future, we would be ready and happy for it.

Physically, my body doesn’t feel too bad. It just felt like I was having a very heavy period. Usually my flow finishes in 4-5 days but my womb completely cleared within 2 days. Still experiencing a little nausea and cramping but I’m getting lots of cuddles from the family. Chubbi and Domo make fantastic hot water bottles too.

Even though it was an early miscarriage, I think I was a more upset about it than I thought I would be. I wasn’t as excited as I was with my first pregnancy and it was because I was overwhelmed since I knew what to expect. Once I started to embrace the changes about to come our way, I was able to connect with my pregnancy with excitement. Unfortunately, by then- the pregnancy couldn't progress.

Tim has reminded me that I could’ve been perfectly healthy and careful and yet sometimes, these things will just happen. We still feel incredibly blessed for our family already. We will leave it all to the Lord. He has been taking care of our family and we know everything happens for a reason. We know other people out there have had it way worse. Our situation is nothing in comparison. We are always going to be thankful ^_^

Love, the Bubz family xo

I have made this video of AI vs Vince Carter the Toronto Raptors in 2001 NBA Playoff. Every single points of Iverson is included from Game 1 to Game 7.

Vince Carter versus Allen Iverson is the kind of marquee matchup the NBA has been craving since the days of Magic Johnson and Larry Bird.

As two of the NBA's most exciting young stars, they are dazzling spectators and TV viewers with limitless creativity and breathtaking moves in the Toronto Raptors-Philadelphia 76ers playoff series.

"This matchup is great, and people are getting turned on to it," said NBA deputy commissioner Russ Granik, who was at Philadelphia's First Union Center on Wednesday night, when Iverson scored 54 points to Carter's 28 in the 76ers' 97-92 victory. "For better or worse, fans like it when you get superstars going against each other. People have been hearing about these guys for years now, but they haven't gotten this far before where they met each other at this level. That gets people interested."

With the NBA's overall popularity declining and new rules designed to make the game more appealing set to take effect next season, an Iverson-Carter matchup is what the league really needed.

"Watching these two kids, I don't think our league is in any trouble," 76ers coach Larry Brown said. "They really are exciting."

Toronto coach Lenny Wilkens feels much the same way.

"I think you are going to see more great individual matchups as the young kids we have in this league develop," he said. "We are always rushing to fix this and fix that, but maybe there is not always something wrong. The young guys have to be able to grow and make some mistakes. Let them grow up and then see what they can do. In this series, you are seeing two of the best going at each other."

It is looking increasingly likely that Michael Jordan will end a three-year retirement next season and return to the NBA as a player. Carter and Iverson will be right there, eagerly awaiting that matchup.

"You always want to test yourself against the best, and I would welcome the challenge," Iverson said.

Said Carter of Jordan: "He set the standard we are all trying to reach."

Jordan, of course, owns six championship rings and 10 scoring titles, while Carter, 24, has won nothing more than a rookie of the year award and a slam-dunk title. But Carter is one of the league's most popular players among fans, the leading vote-getter for the past two NBA All-Star Games. Iverson, 25, won his second scoring title this season and is favored to win this season's most valuable player award, as well.

And while Iverson and Carter are going head to head, other young stars such as Milwaukee's Ray Allen, the Los Angeles Lakers' Kobe Bryant, San Antonio's Tim Duncan, Dallas' Michael Finley and Dirk Nowitzki and Sacramento's Chris Webber and Peja Stojakovic also are still competing in the playoffs. In addition, the league's most improved player, Orlando's 21 year-old Tracy McGrady, was a major star of the first round even though his team lost.

"We try to promote the game and the teams and all the players," Granik said. "There are just certain players who capture people's imaginations. You can't deny that.

"We can't go out and create them. It just happens and they're doing it on the court. You can't make superstars, I don't care how good a promotion. It's what they do on the court, and here we have Iverson and Carter. They're doing it most nights on the floor. That's what people see and they love to watch it."

The personal similarities between Carter and Iverson are few other than both are mama's boys. Iverson's mother, Ann, attends almost all of her son's games while dressed in a 76ers jersey with "IVERSON'S MOM" emblazoned on it. Carter's mother, Michelle, prefers street clothes at games, but she publicly criticized Oakley when he dared to criticize her baby boy.

Though Iverson — with his corn-row hairstyle, multiple tattoos and rap albums — might appeal directly to the hip-hop generation, the more conservative Carter is Mr. Basketball in Canada. One of the Raptors' top priorities is keeping him with the franchise well beyond the 2001-02 season, when his contract expires. They have a window from Aug. 1 to Oct. 31 to re-sign him. If they don't, he will become a free agent after the 2001-02 season.

He and team officials prefer not to talk about the future just yet.

Meanwhile, he and Iverson downplay their personal rivalry.

Carter: "We try to do our thing as a team. I just try to fit in within the team concept and do what I need to do. I see what Allen is doing, but I'm not thinking about trying to outdo him personally."

Iverson: "I can't accomplish anything without my teammates. I know that, they know that and everybody knows that. Vince is a great player, but he needs his teammates just like I need mine. The things my teammates do to help us win are just as important as the things I do.

I hope I can give birth to a healthy child :)
If anything happens, any updates, I will post on my facebook page straight away.
Please wish me (my family) a good luck, and always many thanks for your support!!!

As you know, I am a worrier. I worry about my 2nd baby as well as my daughter, my darling, my family, and of course myself. haha I don't know if it was a right decision to share about this now, but I know it is nothing to hide, weather if it is good or bad, my viewers can be my power. Again, thanks for your love and support. Love, peace, and happiness to everyone!!!
