The myofascial system plays a fundamental role in the mechanics of the body, in body tension regulation and the etiology of pathological sta
As expected patients with MDD and never-depressed control participants differed in the characteristics of the myofascial tissue. Depressed patients showed higher stiffness and reduced elasticity of the myofascial tissue. Since fascial tissue is involved in the modulation of force generation and also mechanosensory fine-tuning, long-term dysfunction in this tissue represented by stiffness and reduced elasticity might lead to chronically intensified body tension and reduced suppleness of the motoric system. This might be one of the reasons why depressed gait is characterized by reduced arm swing, a reduced vertical up-and-down dynamic (Michalak et al., 2009) and why depressed individuals show a slumped posture (Canales et al., 2010; Wilkes et al., 2017). Heightened body tension, depressed gait patterns and posture might then feedback into the psychological system and make negative cognitions and emotional states more accessible.

You know, Google, when I asked if chronic palsy spasticity might lead to depression, I wasn't expecting you to say yes.
"Spasticity can cause depression. The link is indirect, driven by the physical, emotional, and social toll of living with chronic muscle stiffness. Constant pain, fatigue, and difficulty completing daily tasks greatly reduce oneâs quality of life, frequently leading to anxiety and depressive symptoms.
How Spasticity Contributes to Depression
Physical Limitations: Muscle tightness, spasms, and contractures make basic tasks (walking, dressing, and hygiene) frustrating and exhausting. This loss of independence can trigger feelings of worthlessness and low mood.
Chronic Pain: Long-term pain is a well-known risk factor for developing depression.
Social Isolation: Many patients feel embarrassed by their symptoms or uncontrollable spasms. This can lead to withdrawing from social activities, which increases loneliness and depressive thoughts.
Because the connection between spasticity and mental health is deeply intertwined, a multidisciplinary approach is recommended. It is important to treat both the body and the mind...
Yknow the lil fanfic trope where a character, usually non-human, purrs like a cat. In this case it would obviously be Rocky but what if it was Grace instead hear me out-
people on here are always saying âwe NEED a story where the art of storytelling is abandonedâ like ugh literary devices are soo annoying like that wouldnât happen in real life that only happened to further the story (why is there story in my story) why would orpheus turn around when he was explicitly told not to why would icarus fly so close to the sun romeo&juliet catcher in the rye why are they so earnest why pour your heart and soul into anything why bother why cant all art be quippy logical monotony like my marvel movies thereâs a void in my heart bc i refused to fill it and the curtains were blue
âi hate poetry its so pretentiousâ but then you reblog a quote or a throwaway line and say âwhy does this go so hardâ you are desperate for poetry you are starved for it and u dont even realise youâre hungry
Gonna chill out the rest of May and then change my entire life in June. Possibly July if that doesn't work out. Certainly no later than September or October.
"grace. grace! grace give attention. rocky perform human ritual of escape closet now. statement."
"come again?"
"i learn more from thinking machine. human gender preference. attraction to same gender, means word 'gay.' all eridian same gender." rocky stands straight up. "rocky come out to grace now. all rocky plural gay, statement."
"...wow, that's... rock, i'm not sure it makes much sense to apply human ideas of sexual orientation to a monogendered species."
being sick & miserable objectively sucks, but it has become significantly easier to cope with since learning that âsickness behaviorâ is a well documented part of the bodyâs immune response
feeling not only physically but also emotionally like fucking garbage is unfortunately an extremely effective way to force your body to prioritize fighting infection & keeping you alive. i donât have to like it, but knowing why i get weepy & pathetic when sick does help at least a little
rockyâs design notes from james ortizâ instagram :) going insane at the reason rocky put two arms together when giving his name was to show his family crest
