How to recognize arthritis symptoms
Take notice of any joint pain.
Joint pain is the most characteristic symptom of all types of arthritis. You might notice the pain after exercising or using the joints extensively, which is the case with " wear and tear " arthritis (oa), or upon waking and after periods of disuse, which is more characteristic of ra.
OPTIONS:
- The pain can be felt in the joint (s). It can range from the front of the thigh (at the joint joint) (hip and wrist) to shin.
- Fatigue may also accompany joint pain, as the ra's are notorious for not only needing to recover physically but mentally as well. Work with your doctor to determine what specifically is causing your aches and pains.

How to handle parents playing favorites as an adult
Debate carefully whether to address the favoritism.
Telling your family members about your feelings might just stir up negativity. On the other hand, it could lead to a productive conversation and a positive resolution.
OPTIONS:
- Try asking your family members how they'd feel if they were another parent and see what happens. Or, in that case, you might think your kids would be better served without a parent playing favorites.
- Take your individual family situation into account as you consider whether to speak up. If you think your parents aren't intentionally making you or your siblings feel left out, a tactful conversation might be appropriate.
- If you're in a bind regarding whether your parents will accept favoritism, decide if it's worth it to try to uncover the root cause. Have you noticed how your parent's comments affect your emotions and decisions at school? Look for the underlying reasons behind your brother's antics.
- The best impression you have to make is the statement that the favoritism makes you glad you told them. Perhaps you have a lot of trouble deciding for yourself why your parents don't like to play favorites.

answer: Take your individual family situation into account as you consider whether to speak up. If you think your parents aren't intentionally making you or your siblings feel left out, a tactful conversation might be appropriate.

How to recognize ptsd in veterans
Watch for irritable or panicked behavior.
Veterans with ptsd often struggle to control their behavior or emotional responses, and may show anger in response to a disproportionately small stimulus. Irritable behavior can include inappropriately angry or panicked reactions.
OPTIONS:
- The worst cases for ptsd are those that are physically unable to move, or that do not respond to treatment. Dysfunctional individuals may experience lightheadedness, rash, or other dramatic behavior in response to experiencing unwanted stimuli.
- Immediate treatment is an option if the person is prone to obsessing over a traumatic event. Take an x-ray of a wound.
- For example, a veteran with ptsd may become furious over something that, prior to their traumatic experience, would've produced a much less dramatic response. Note if the veteran has physical responses to stimuli that remind them of trauma.
- Another symptom of ptsd is an overactive response to stress, thinking that things will not go perfectly; this can include raised eyebrows, trembling, extreme anxiety, and delusions. Many veterans with ptsd also display symptoms of depression.

For example, a veteran with ptsd may become furious over something that, prior to their traumatic experience, would've produced a much less dramatic response. Note if the veteran has physical responses to stimuli that remind them of trauma.
