Yeha, ngaba ukuxhalaba kungakonyusa umngcipheko wakho womhlaza?

Umxholo

• Uphengululo lwe

Akumangalisi ukuba zombini uxinzelelo kunye noxinzelelo lunokuba neziphumo ezihlala zihleli kwimpilo yakho ekuhambeni kwexesha, kubangele yonke into ukusuka kukonyuka kwengozi yokuhlaselwa sisifo sentliziyo kwimiba yamathumbu. (FYI: Kungenxa yoko le nto iindaba zikwenza ube nexhala.)

Kwaye ayisiyiyo kuphela ukuba nexhala kunzima ukujongana nayo, kodwa kukwaqheleke kakhulu. Ngokutsho kweZiko leSizwe leMpilo yeNgqondo, i-18.1 ekhulwini labantu baseMerika banengxaki yokukhathazeka. Ngaphezu koko, abasetyhini banamathuba angama-60 eepesenti kunamadoda ukuba abe noxinzelelo malunga nobomi babo-ngokungathi ukujongana namaxesha, ukukhulelwa, kunye nokutshintsha kwehomoni kwakungekho nzima ngokwaneleyo, akunjalo? Ngoku, uphando olutsha olwenziwe ngabaphandi kwiYunivesithi yaseCambridge luthi ixhala linokubangela enye inkxalabo enkulu yezempilo: umhlaza.

Kuphononongo, abaphandi bagxile kubantu abanengxaki yokukhathazeka ngokubanzi (GAD), ethi, ngokutsho kweKliniki yaseMayo, ibonakaliswe kukuxhalaba okugqithisileyo kweentsuku ezininzi zeveki ngaphezulu kweenyanga ezintandathu, kunye neempawu zomzimba ezifana nokungaphumli, ukukhathala, ingxaki yokugxila, ukungakhathali, uxinzelelo lwemisipha, kunye neengxaki zokulala. Uphononongo luthi ngelixa uphando lwangaphambili luvavanye ukuba ingaba uxinzelelo luhambelana nokufa kwangoko kwizifo eziphambili (kubandakanya umhlaza), iziphumo azingqinelani. (Nasi isizathu sokuba uyeke ukuthi unexhala ukuba awunjalo.)

Ukujonga ngakumbi, abaphandi bajonge idatha kwizigulana ezine-GAD ezisweleke ngenxa yomhlaza, neyayiqokelelwe njengenxalenye yesifundo sangaphambili. Bafumanisa ukuba amadoda anexhala ayenayo kabini umngcipheko wokufa ngumhlaza. Okumangalisayo kukuba, ulungelelwaniso olufanayo aluzange lubekho kwabasetyhini kwiseti yabo yedatha, nangona abaphandi becebisa uvavanyo olongezelelweyo lokuqinisekisa ukuba kubambekile.

"Asinakutsho ukuba enye ibangela enye," watsho umphandi okhokelayo u-Olivia Remes kwiKholeji yaseYurophu ye-Neuropsychopharmacology Congress (ECNP). "Kungenzeka ukuba amadoda anexhala anendlela yokuphila okanye ezinye izinto ezinobungozi ezonyusa umngcipheko womhlaza esingaziphendulanga ngokupheleleyo." U-Remes ukwathethile ngesidingo sabantu kubaphandi bamandla, amagosa aseburhulumenteni, kunye noogqirha-ukuhoya ngakumbi iingxaki zoxinzelelo. "Inani elikhulu labantu liyachaphazeleka luxinzelelo, kwaye iziphumo zalo ezinokubakho kwezempilo zibalulekile, utshilo. "Ngalesi sifundo, sibonisa ukuba ukuxhalaba kungaphezulu nje komntu, kodwa kunoko, kukuphazamiseka okunokuthi kudibaniswe nomngcipheko wokufa kwiimeko, njengomhlaza." (Idibeneyo: Olu vavanyo olungaqhelekanga lunokuxela kwangaphambili ukuxhalaba kunye noxinzelelo ngaphambi kokuba ubonise iimpawu.)

UDavid Nutt, uprofesa wase-Imperial College oye waqhuba neklinikhi yase-UK egxile kukuphazamiseka koxinzelelo, wathi iziphumo azimothusanga. "Uxinzelelo olunzima aba bantu bahlupheka ngalo, rhoqo imihla ngemihla, luhlala lunxulunyaniswa noxinzelelo olukhulu lomzimba oluya kuthi lube nefuthe elikhulu kwiinkqubo ezininzi zomzimba, kubandakanya ukonganyelwa komzimba kwiiseli ezinomhlaza."

Ke ngelixa iziphumo ezibalaseleyo zolu phononongo ikakhulu zibhekiselele emadodeni, yinyani ngokungathandabuzekiyo ukuba ixhala (kunye nezinye iziphazamiso zempilo yengqondo, ngalo mbandela) kufuneka zithathelwe ingqalelo njengeengxaki zempilo yomzimba ngokubanzi, nazo. Kwaye ukuba ukhathazekile malunga noku kunxibelelana phakathi koxinzelelo kunye nomhlaza, qonda ukuba ababhali abafundayo bayazi ukuba kunokubakho ezinye izinto zokuphila ezichaphazelekayo, kuba abantu abaxhalabileyo banamathuba okuzenzela amayeza ngezinto ezinokuthi zibe negalelo kumngcipheko womhlaza. (jonga: iisigarethi notywala). Kwakhona kubalulekile ukukhumbula ukuba olu phando oluthile lugxile kuphela kwi-GAD, ngoko akukho sizathu sangoko sokukhathazeka ukuba unolunye uhlobo lokuxhalaba (njengokukhathazeka ebusuku okanye ukuxhalaba kwentlalo). Ngokuqinisekileyo, uphando oluthe kratya luyafuneka, kodwa olu phando linyathelo elisecaleni lokufumana ikhonkco phakathi koxinzelelo, unxunguphalo kunye nokugula.

Okwangoku, ukuba ujonge kuxinzelelo oluncinci, zama eziXhalabisa-ukunciphisa iSisombululo seMigibe yokuXhalaba okuqhelekileyo kunye neeoyile eziBalulekileyo zokuXhalaba kunye noXinzelelo loXinzelelo.
