Mood Disorder and Acupuncture During the Corona Epidemic

The coronavirus epidemic, which is currently ravaging the whole world, including our country, has started to show a relatively decreasing trend compared to a few months ago. Under the leadership of the World Health Organization (WHO), the health ministries of all countries are trying to fight the Covid 19 viral infection very seriously and determinedly and to take precautions.

This virus is transmitted in the form of droplet infection and from person to person through close-distance relationships. Unlike the bacteria we call microbes, microbes settle inside the cell, take over the entire control of the cell, replicate their own DNA, and constantly undergo genetic changes, which we call mutation, by changing their gene structure. If this mutation happens in a bad way, it will be very bad for us. If it develops in a good direction, it will be very good for us and will fade away over time and destroy itself. Our duty here is to strictly comply with the recommendations and precautions of the physicians who are experts on the subject and the institutions and organizations that have a say. We must keep our hands clean, and when we have to go out, we must wear a surgical mask that covers tightly from the back of the nose to the lower jaw. We should never be in close contact with people, we should maintain social distance. This distance recommended by WHO is 2 meters. However, recently Chinese experts say this distance is at least 4 m. He says it should be.

So what is the most radical protection?..As the most radical protection measures; We can count this as confining ourselves to our homes and not going out as much as possible, wearing a surgical mask when we have to go out, and keeping our hands clean by washing them with soapy water or disinfecting them with disinfectant liquids. In countries where advanced epidemics are experienced and many deaths occur, two-week uninterrupted curfews are implemented. Although these prohibitions are strictly medically imposed and must be followed; It inevitably invites traumas, anxieties, anxieties and psychological distress in people's souls. When the uncertainty of when normal life can be resumed all over the world and in our country is added to these, the situation becomes more complicated.

There are feelings of being safe and at peace in the spiritual nature of humans. r. If people feel less likely to experience these emotions; Mood disorders such as fear, anxiety disorders, psychological stress, panic attacks or depression begin to emerge. We have many brain chemicals that manage our mood. The most important of these are; dopamine, serotonin, noradrenaline and endorphin. If there is any irregularity or deficiency in the production or secretion of these neurochemicals; The fear we just mentioned (especially the fear of catching the virus at any time and getting sick), anxiety disorder, panic attack, depression or stress situations occur.

All these mental and emotional disorders can be treated with acupuncture without medication and without side effects. It can be treated with. A treatment of at least 10 sessions is planned twice a week. In addition to this treatment, we want the patient to consume foods containing amino acids, which are the precursors of the brain chemical whose secretion we will correct. Since these are the raw materials of the brain chemicals whose secretion we will increase, production will increase very efficiently both qualitatively and quantitatively. The most important of these raw materials are; Tryptophan and phenylalanine are amino acids. These are amino acids (essential amino acids) that the body cannot produce and therefore must be taken from outside with food.

I wish our country and all the nations of the world to get rid of this brutal virus infection as soon as possible with the least harm.
