Uxinzelelo kubantu abadala

Ukudakumba yimeko yempilo yengqondo. Sisifo esibuhlungu apho iimvakalelo zosizi, ukulahleka, umsindo, okanye unxunguphalo ziphazamisa ubomi bemihla ngemihla iiveki okanye nangaphezulu.

Uxinzelelo kubantu abadala yingxaki exhaphakileyo, kodwa ayisiyonto iqhelekileyo yokuguga. Idla ngokungaziwa okanye inyangwe.

Kubantu abadala abadala, utshintsho kubomi lunokunyusa umngcipheko wokudakumba okanye lwenze mandundu ukudakumba. Olunye lolu tshintsho zezi:

• Ukufuduka ekhaya, njengokuya kwindawo yomhlala-phantsi
• Ukugula okungapheliyo okanye iintlungu
• Abantwana bafuduka
• Umlingane okanye abahlobo abasondeleyo bayadlula
• Ukuphulukana nokuzimela (umzekelo, iingxaki zokuhamba okanye ukuzikhathalela, okanye ukuphulukana nelungelo lokuqhuba)

Ukudakumba kunokunxulunyaniswa nokugula emzimbeni, okufana:

• Iingxaki ze-thyroid
• Isifo seParkinson
• Isifo sentliziyo
• Umhlaza
• Ukubetha
• Isifo sengqondo esixhalabisayo (esifana nesifo se-Alzheimer)

Ukusetyenziswa gwenxa kotywala okanye amayeza athile (anje ngezixhobo zokulala) kunokwenza uxinzelelo ngakumbi.

Uninzi lweempawu eziqhelekileyo zoxinzelelo zinokubonwa. Nangona kunjalo, ukudakumba kubantu abadala kunokuba nzima ukukufumanisa. Iimpawu eziqhelekileyo ezinje ngokudinwa, ukungabinamdla wokutya, kunye nengxaki yokulala inokuba yinxalenye yenkqubo yokuguga okanye yokugula emzimbeni. Ngenxa yoko, ukudakumba kwangoko kunokungahoywa, okanye kudideke kunye nezinye iimeko eziqhelekileyo kubantu abadala.

Umboneleli wezempilo uya kwenza uvavanyo lomzimba. Imibuzo iya kubuzwa malunga nembali yonyango kunye neempawu.

Uvavanyo lwegazi kunye nomchamo lunokwenziwa ukukhangela ukugula komzimba.

Ingcali yezempilo yengqondo inokufuneka ukuze incede ekufumaneni isifo kunye nonyango.

Amanyathelo okuqala onyango ngala:

• Phatha nasiphi na isigulo esinokubangela iimpawu.
• Yeka ukuthatha nawaphi na amayeza anokwenza iimpawu zibe mandundu.
• Gwema utywala kunye nezixhobo zokulala.

Ukuba la manyathelo awancedi, amayeza anyanga uxinzelelo kunye nonyango lokuthetha uhlala unceda.

Oogqirha bahlala bemisela iidosi ezisezantsi ze-anti-depressants kubantu abadala, kwaye bandise idosi kancinci kancinci kunabantu abadala abancinci.

Ukulawula ngcono uxinzelelo ekhaya:

• Zilolonge rhoqo, ukuba umboneleli uthi kulungile.
• Zijikeleze ngabantu abakhathalayo, abaqinisekileyo kwaye wenze imisebenzi eyonwabisayo.
• Funda imikhwa elungileyo yokulala.
• Funda ukubukela iimpawu zokuqala zoxinzelelo, kwaye wazi ukuba ungasabela njani xa zisenzeka.
• Sela utywala obuncinci kwaye ungasebenzisi iziyobisi ezingekho mthethweni.
• Thetha ngeemvakalelo zakho nomntu omthembileyo.
• Thatha amayeza ngokuchanekileyo kwaye uxoxe ngazo naziphi na iziphumo ebezingalindelekanga kunye nomboneleli.

Uxinzelelo luhlala luphendula kunyango. Isiphumo sihlala singcono kubantu abanokufikelela kwiinkonzo zentlalo, usapho kunye nabahlobo abanokubanceda ukuba bahlale bekhuthele kwaye bezibandakanya.

Eyona ngxaki imbi kakhulu yoxinzelelo kukuzibulala. Amadoda enza ukuzibulala kwabantu abadala. Amadoda aqhawule umtshato okanye amadoda angabahlolokazi asemngciphekweni omkhulu.

Iintsapho kufuneka zinike ingqalelo kwizalamane ezindala ezidandathekileyo kwaye zihlala zodwa.

Fowunela umboneleli wakho ukuba uhlala uziva ulusizi, ungenaxabiso, okanye ungenathemba, okanye ukuba uhlala ulila rhoqo. Biza kwakhona ukuba unengxaki yokujongana noxinzelelo ebomini bakho kwaye ufuna ukuthunyelwa kunyango lwentetho.

Yiya kwigumbi likaxakeka elikufutshane okanye utsalele inombolo yakho yongxamiseko yeli (njenge-911) ukuba ucinga ngokuzibulala (ukuthatha ubomi bakho).

Ukuba ukhathalela ilungu losapho eligugileyo kwaye ucinga ukuba banokudakumba, nxibelelana nomboneleli wabo.
