HOW TO COPE WITH THE SUNDAY SCARIES


by Chantelle Lee


    ________(1) Sunday night, and you’re feeling sad and anxious about going back to work in the morning.

 

    Say hello to the Sunday scaries 


   You’re not alone in your workweek dread: “They’re very, very common,” says Susanne Cooperman, a neuropsychologist and psychoanalyst at New York University Langone Huntington Medical Group. “There’s nothing wrong with a person if they feel sad that the weekend is over. It’s when it really interferes in your functioning—when you can’t focus, when you can’t sleep, when you feel yourself medicating with alcohol—then you need help.”


   Here’s why people get the Sunday scaries and the best ways to combat those thoughts of doom and gloom.


   __________(2) are the Sunday scaries? The Sunday scaries typically manifest in two ways: feelings of depression that the weekend is ending, feelings of anxiety about the week to come, or both. These feelings typically start on Sunday afternoon.


   “It could be that you feel sad and irritable and you have difficulty concentrating and fatigue,”


   Cooperman says. That collection of feelings is called anhedonia—basically a loss of enjoyment.


   If you feel more dread for the work week ahead, that’s called “anticipatory anxiety,” she says.


   Why people get them 


   The scaries strike for all kinds of reasons. They could be related to work—maybe you’re afraid of losing your job, or you’re dreading going to the office in person, or you’re simply having a hard time unplugging from work after hours, Cooperman says.


   Or, she adds, it could also be that you overbooked yourself during the week and feel exhausted by the time Sunday comes around.


   How to deal with the Sunday scaries


  One of the best ways to deal with the Sunday scaries is to mentally plant yourself firmly in the present. One way to achieve this is to try a mediation or relaxation app, even if it’s only for 10 or 15 minutes, Cooperman says. “I think that’s probably the best out of all the tips: stay in the moment, really try to curtail that catastrophizing into the future,” she says. There are other paths away from the scaries, too: Unplug from your phone or social media, maintain a good work-life balance, do some exercise, or get some fresh air. Make sure to schedule fun activities for Sunday afternoon and evening and do things that reliably make you feel better or help you “refuel [your] batteries,” Cooperman says. Just as important is allowing yourself downtime to relax and unwind, she adds. She also recommends trying to split up errands throughout the week so you don’t feel like you wasted your entire Sunday doing them.


   While the Sunday scaries are common, people should keep an eye on how they’re coping come the end of the weekend. “Use healthy, adaptive ways to self-soothe when you’re anxious and have the scaries,” Cooperman says. “A glass of wine is fine, but if it’s more than that and you need it every night, then that’s a problem.” If the scaries are so bad that it’s significantly impacting your life, Cooperman suggests talking about these feelings with a therapist or a psychologist. Some warning signs include being so anxious that it’s hard to get out of bed in the morning, having anxiety attacks, needing alcohol to calm down, not being able to focus or sleep, or failing to enjoy the weekend at all. “If you just can’t get out of that loop where you’re constantly unhappy, then I think you’re at a place where you should see a psychologist or a therapist,” Cooperman says. “Sometimes it’s hard to [deal with it] on your own. It’s good to talk to a professional.”

O texto seguinte servirá de base para responder à questão abaixo:

(1º§) POSTNATAL depression is rife among parents, affecting more than one in 10 women within a year after they've given birth. But many mums hesitate before speaking out about their battles with mental health in what supposed to be a blissful period for them.

(2º§) Ellie Polly Killah, a YouTuber and mum of two boys aged six and two, said she'd ummed and ahhed about sharing her own experience for two years. In a video uploaded to her channel, she gave a raw account of her postnatal depression and the severe anxiety and intrusive thoughts it triggered in its aftermath. "I'm not gonna sugarcoat it, I'm just gonna say it how it is because it's not a pretty thing to deal with, to go through so I'm not going to try and make it so," she told viewers. "This is my story from the beginning till now and how I learned to live with it - I say live with it not overcome it because I don't think you ever do," the mum went on. She hoped the video might help anyone at the precipice of this process.

(3º§) Ellie said she had no history of mental health struggles when she gave birth to her first son Leo in 2017 at the age of 27. She was the first of her friends to have a kid she recalled feeling lonely. And Ellie became aware of her 'attachment issues' with Leo immediately after he was born. "People love to tell you that when your baby is born you have this immediate rush of love when you look at them," she explained. But Ellie said that isn't the case for everyone and it wasn't the case for her with her first child. "Obviously I was amazed when I saw him, sort of overwhelmed, couldn't believe he was here, but I don't remember feeling that complete love and awe of him."

(4º§) Ellie struggled to feel bonded to Leo, but thought there was just 'something really wrong' with her. "I would cry every day but a lot of the time in secret," she remembered, and the new mum said she locked herself in her room to do so whenever someone came round to visit. "I think I did it secretly because I was embarrassed or ashamed, or I thought if people knew I was struggling that they would just think I was this awful mother, or he'd get taken away from me." "Your brain sends you an all of these imaginary scenarios."

(5º§) In retrospect, Ellie questioned how she thought this was normal. Her fiance Clint went back to work when Leo was two weeks old and he'd often have to travel, meaning that Ellie was on her own a lot. She remembered ringing Clint and saying __ her son: "I feel like I don't like him." She told viewers it was painful to recall feeling that way, but it made her begin to realise something wasn't quite right. "This was the first baby for both of us, so we didn't really recognise post-partum depression or know what we were really looking for.

(6º§) At eight weeks old, Ellie's bond for her baby 'came on quite suddenly'. "I remember it hitting me like a wave, looking at him one day and being like: there it is," Ellie said.


Intrusive thoughts and OCD

(7º§) But the guilt of not experiencing that early attachment lead to the mum being 'extremely anxious' about her son. She explained: "The intense love and responsibility that I had to this baby lead me to constantly, constantly [think] he was going to die." Ellie would have 'hideous, morbid, intrusive thoughts' multiple times a day, particularly triggered when she was driving or Leo was in the bath: "It was intense."

(8º§) She started to get panic attacks and physical side effects from the anxiety she was experiencing, like like a tight chest, stomach pains, nausea and headaches. "I know now that OCD basically goes hand in had with severe anxiety," Ellie went on. At her worst, Ellie was convinced her home would catch fire in the night and would obsessively plan out an escape route in her head before sleeping. She also became gripped by the fear that she would die __ the night and leave her baby on his own.    

(9º§) Ellie asked her mum or fiance text her every morning in case this happened.The new mum had her wake-up call when she confessed this fear to her friends one evening and saw the horror on their faces. She booked a therapist appointment the next day.


What helped?

(10º§) Ellie said therapy was hugely helpful to her recovery journey, as was medication. The mum saw female therapist who specialised in anxiety, who taught her techniques that Ellie said she used to this day. A method deal with with her intrusive thoughts was to take a deep breath when she was taken over by one, soak it in and then weigh up the evidence it is true vs. the evidence it isn't. "The one or two minutes it takes for you to sum up that evidence for and against, you've completely calmed down," Ellie said.

(11º§) Three years later Ellie said she's realised how common her experience with postnatal depression is. "I'll worry about my kids forever, I'll probably always get these horrible thoughts and ideas, but I know how to deal with them so I just get on with it. It doesn't control me at all." She went on: "If you are in a dark place and feel like you need help, just talk to someone." Then it's best you get professional help, as these kinds of feelings are "really hard to master on your own". The mum ended on a happier note. "And if you had a bad experience and you're nervous about your second, let me tell you it was a completely different experience __ me second time round.

Question must be answered based on the following text.



I hope that nobody has ever had to look at anybody they love through glass.


And I didn't say it the way I meant to say it. I meant to say it in a very offhand way, so he wouldn't be too upset, so he'd understand that I was saying it without any kind of accusation in my heart.


You see: I know him. He's very proud, and he worries a lot, and, when I think about it, I know--he doesn't--that that's the biggest reason he's in jail. He worries too much already, I don't want him to worry about me. In fact, I didn't want to say what I had to say. But I knew I had to say it. He had to know.


And I thought, too, that when he got over being worried, when he was lying by himself at night, when he was all by himself, in the very deepest part of himself, maybe, when he thought about it, he'd be glad. And that might help him.


I said, "Alonzo, we're going to have a baby."


I looked at him. I know I smiled. His face looked as though it were plunging into water. I couldn't touch him. I wanted so to touch him. I smiled again and my hands got wet on the phone and then for a moment I couldn't see him at all and I shook my head and my face was wet and I said, "I'm glad. I'm glad. Don't you worry. I'm glad."

Government departments are providing funds...................... the multi-million pound project in Gateshead, Leeds, Nottingham, and Telford ...................... 2015.


El Sistema is the inspiration behind Britain’s In Harmony scheme. In Harmony uses classical music to change the lives of children, and benefit their communities, and families.


Already, musicians from the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and Manchester Camerata have agreed to take part. They will provide instrumental tuition, ensemble playing practice, and promote wider musical activities in communities. Organizers hope the initiative will give children role models to look up to, and help uncover the next generation of composers, artists, and performers.


For several years, there have been successful In Harmony projects in London and Liverpool. While the project is all about classical music, some of those who have taken part have shown an interest in other types of music, too. Many of those children whose musical talents really stood out have since begun to learn the piano, drums, or guitar, while others have gone into music production. Some have gone on to record and release their own music, and others now perform regular gigs. Organizers of the scheme want to repeat that success by bringing the project to towns and cities where there are areas of deprivation.


The project offers disadvantaged children the chance to master a classical instrument with rigorous tuition. Along the way, the children learn valuable teamwork skills, and enjoy a sense of community spirit. In the past, it has transformed attitudes towards classical music, and learning in general. Even children who say that they can’t stand learning instruments at the beginning, sometimes end up wanting to become professional musicians by the end. They often grow to realize that they love making music after playing with others in an orchestra.


In Harmony will run in selected primary schools whose students will meet several times a week from an early age to play instruments together. The aim is engage all the children in participating schools and communities so they can benefit from sharing the experience. Once the project settles down in the communities where it is launching, it is hoped the children will soon be rehearsing for big performances on the local, regional, or national stage.

Primate thumbs and brains evolved hand-in-hand

By University of Reading Tue, Aug 26, 2025


University of Reading - Longer thumbs mean bigger brains, scientists have found − revealing how human hands and minds evolved together. Researchers studied 94 different primate species, including fossils and living animals, to understand how our ancestors developed their abilities. They found that species with relatively longer thumbs, which help with gripping small objects precisely, consistently had larger brains. The research, published today (Tuesday, 26 August) in Communications Biology, provides the first direct evidence that manual dexterity and brain evolution are connected across the entire primate lineage, from lemurs to humans. Humans and our extinct relatives boast both extraordinarily long thumbs and exceptionally large brains. However, the link remains strong across all primates: when scientists removed human data from their analysis, the connection between thumb length and brain size remained. 


Dr Joanna Baker, lead author from the University of Reading, said: "We've always known that our big brains and nimble fingers set us apart, but now we can see they didn't evolve separately. As our ancestors got better at picking up and manipulating objects, their brains had to grow to handle these new skills. These abilities have been fine-tuned through millions of years of brain evolution." 


Thumbs linked to thinking, not movement


The scientists made a surprising discovery about which part of the brain grows alongside longer thumbs. They expected longer thumbs to be linked to the cerebellum because it is the region of the brain that controls movement and coordination. Instead, longer thumbs were connected to the neocortex (a complex layered region comprising approximately half the volume of the human brain), which processes sensory information and handles cognition and consciousness. 


It was a surprise that only one of the two major brain regions they thought would be involved actually was. The findings suggest that as primates developed better manual skills for handling objects, their brains had to grow to process and use these new abilities effectively − but further work is needed to establish exactly how the neocortex supports manipulative abilities.

Saving What’s Precious

The World Monuments Fund is an organization _____________works to preserve important historical and architectural sites ____________ the world. Every two years, the WMF releases a list of sites ______________ particular danger of becoming ruins, and in 2014, it chose 67 sites in 41 countries. As this is a problem I feel strongly about, I decided to find______________ more about some of these places ___________ my blog.

My first discovery was the Fort of Graca, in Elvas, Portugal. Built in the 18th century, this superb military building played an important role in several wars. However, the building’s strategic importance declined over the years and signs of decay are now appearing. Today, the WMF supports the continued maintenance of the fort, and plans to reuse it as a tourism center.

My research then led me to the Sankore Mosque in Timbuktu, Mali, West Africa. Built in the 14th century, the mosque was integral to the city’s importance as a spiritual and intellectual center in the 15th and 16th centuries. Today, the mosque is vulnerable to fighting and rapid urbanization in the region. The WMF hopes to draw attention to this, and to protect this precious monument.

My online journey then took me to the Christ Church Cathedral in Zanzibar, Tanzania, East Africa. Completed in 1879, the Cathedral’s exquisite design makes its history difficult to take in: it lies on the site of what was, until 1873, a major slave market. The Cathedral is now both a place of worship and a memorial to the slaves who suffered there. Recently, large cracks appeared in the Cathedral’s walls. However, with the help of the WMF, they are now repaired.

A very special site on my list was the Damiya Dolmen Field in Jordan, home to 300 stone tombs which date back to 3600 BC. The Damiya Field is in danger of collapse due to mining in the area. However, thanks to pressure from the WMF, the Jordanian government is taking steps to protect it.

Lastly, I found out about the 19th century Alhambra Palace in Santiago, Chile. It replicates parts of the 13th century Alhambra palace in Spain, and, until a major earthquake hit the country in 2010, existed as a cultural institution supporting artists. The effects of the earthquake, together with old age and weather, made the building unsafe and it is currently closed. The WMF hopes that its involvement with the palace can help it to open to the public once again.
