~=+ Ageing +=~
Decided to pen on this article as i feel that i am AGEING !!! ... YESH!!!!!!!!!!! ...........
What is ageing?
Ageing can be physical and at the same time, psychological.
1) physical ageing
Such ageing signs can be seen on the outlooks of a person. This person may have fine lines showing on their skin surface.
This is due to the coenzymes that is depreciating and the skin is losing its elascity. Collagen is also losing its toll due to TIME !!!
Also, his/her reactions may slow down, memory lost, body n joint aches and perhaps WHITE HAIR begin growing !!!
2) Psychological ageing.
Such ageing can cause a person to feel tired, having emotional stress in which they cant handle, hormones imbalance. Certain cases in women may lead to irregular menses. Generally, a person will feel agitated for no apparent reason and they may even at times feel depress.
When Does Ageing Start?
Well, ageing can start as early as the age of between 20 - 25yrs old. There are a few factors that causes ageing and premature ageing in a human body.
The factors can be due to the intake of food, our lifestyle, eg. the amount of sleep we have, the amount of water intake and also not forgetting work stress, peer pressure and ultimately some of the products that we use on our skin.
These products can be as normal as a facial wash we use everyday. The PH level may not suit our skin, also heavy cosmetics usage like foundation and concealor.
As for psychological ageing, its a little difficult to handle. Because, certain cases, some people may face sudden mood changes. This is due to the hormones changes that are taking place. Heat rush, as in a sudden rise in body temperature, this, is also due to hormonal changes.
One may feel fatique, not being to be as agile and also one may feel that they are not able to handle changes in the environment. Some may even affect their social activities like freinds gathering, party sessions or late night movies.
But!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All these can be taken control of.
Successful dimensions of ageing includes the following :
1.No physical disability over the age of 75 as rated by a physician;
2.Good subjective health assessment (i.e. good self-ratings of one's health);
3.Good mental health;
4.Objective social support;
5.Self-rated life satisfaction in eight domains, namely marriage, income-related work, children, friendship and social contacts, hobbies, community service activities, religion and recreation/sports.
Sounds difficult?
