Once upon a time, but I cannot tell you how long ago, there lived an arrogant queen named Niobe. These are old times, but let's face it, arrogance was not a popular thing back then either. Niobe showed off the most by giving birth to 7 boys and 7 girls. If you know who he is showing off to, the Goddess Leto, who has no children other than Apollo and Artemis. What about my friend, are you crazy? Is the big goddess your friend that you are showing off? Goddess Leto was thinking just like me, but much angrier of course! He ordered his children, Artemis and Apolluy, to punish this woman. They also shot arrows from Sipylos Mountain (Sipil Mountain / Manisa) and killed Niobe's 14 children. Niobe, who could not bear this pain, stopped eating or drinking, meditated for a long time and cried day and night, asked Zeus to turn her into stone. Her wish was granted. The Weeping Rock, with water leaking from it on Mount Sipil, is Niobe crying for her children (That's what they say).
I love telling and listening to stories, but what if this Niobe of ours is suffering from stuporous depression?
Stuporous depression is a term used for people with severe depression who do not eat, drink, move or talk. The most striking feature of people with stuporous depression is that they remain inactive for long periods of time. This inactivity is called catatonia, that is, freezing. Let's say you raise your hand, that hand remains there. They can stay in the same position for hours. Sometimes they remain silent for a long time and do not say a word. This condition is called mutism. This silence is not like the silence of normal people; it is as if the person is frozen and watching you from far away. It was more common before antipsychotic drugs were used, it is less common now, but it still exists. One of the treatments that is effective in these patients is ECT, that is, treatment with electricity. I know it sounds scary, but it is one of the effective methods. It is a technique that is easily used in large hospitals, if the patient or his/her relatives allow it.
Let me summarize:
-
May God do the Goddess Leto the way he knows.
-
Arrogance is bad.
-
Zeus! Instead of turning to stone, you can try other things: ECT, antipsychotics…
-
There is a solution to most things that cause despair.
-
Every inch of our country is different. a It is full of different beauties and stories.
