<ul><li>Lemon and Milk. Milk is really hard to digest. We all know when lemon is mixed with milk it coagulates. Thus eating lemon with milk will cause curdling of milk in our stomach and upset it. Causing acidity and heartburn.</li><li>Water and Melon. All melons should be left alone, goes the old saying. Since melons are 90-95% water, drinking water after having them may dilute the digestive juices in the body.</li><li>Yogurt and Fruit. The acid from the fruit combined with the protein of yoghurt makes the entire dish toxic. It can even lead to food allergies. This is even harmful to our digestive system. </li></ul>

#1. List Of Bad Food Combinations

<ul><li>Cereal and Juice. Milk contains casein and juice contains acid, combining them together will curdle the dairy and destroy the enzyme of the juice. So always try to have juice at least one hour before or after having cereal.</li><li>Wine and Pudding. Alcohol messes up blood sugar levels and increases insulin production, so then the high amount of sugar in your dessert will be stored as fat and lead to unhealthy weight gain.</li><li>Banana and Milk. Milk and banana cause heaviness to the stomach and it creates toxicity. This combination will make our mind weak and body lethargic.</li></ul>

#2. List Of Bad Food Combinations

<ul><li>Acidic Fruits with Sweet Fruits. Mixing acidic fruits like strawberries and grapefruits or sub-acidic fruits like peaches and apples with sweet fruits like bananas can hamper our digestion. Eating them together is found to have caused headaches, nausea and acidosis.</li><li>Eggs and Bacon. The high protein content in the egg and the fat in the bacon is something that gives an instant energy boost as soon as we eat it and this energy will vanish very soon, leaving us lethargic.</li><li>Guava and Banana. Eating this combination will increase our risk of acidosis, nausea, gas buildup and persistent headaches.</li></ul>

#3. List Of Bad Food Combinations

<ul><li>Cheese and Beans. The food combo of beans and cheese can leave us feeling gassy and bloated. It is best to keep beans and dairy separate for easier digestion.</li><li>Orange with Carrot. Mixing carrots and oranges can be very dangerous. This mix has been known to cause heartburn and kidney damage.</li><li>Apple Juice and Allergy Medicines. The nectar from apples affects the absorption of the allergy medicine in the bloodstream. This causes the medicine to becomes up to 70% less effective.</li><li>Papaya and Lemon. Papaya and lemon is a deadly combination that can cause anemia and hemoglobin imbalance</li></ul>

Several factors are thought to be responsible for the growing prevalence of this condition. They include globalisation, increasing use of social media and developments in technology. As a result, unlike older times, children now spend more time indoors, glued to screens. They often lack the skills required for direct social interactions, which are, in a way important for forging better connections. A lot of socially withdrawn people don’t even talk to friends much on social media or have less demanding relationships.

Cause Of Hikikomori

Experts are also beginning to explore hikikomori's possible connection with autism, depression, social anxiety and agoraphobia. Not only does a hikikomori person lose many years of their life in isolation, the condition also affects their family.

Hikikomori Connection With Other Symptoms

It can be difficult to tell the difference between normal sadness and depression. We can start by looking at:1. How long the emotions and behaviour changes have lasted – if we shows certain emotions like sadness or behaviour like being overly tired and often irritable for more than two weeks, it might be depression. 2. How strong the emotions are and whether they’re there all the time, or come and go. 3. How much the emotions and behaviour are affecting our work, relationships, physical health, enjoyment or everyday activities.

Pre-Treatment: Recognizing Depression

Apart from social withdrawal, it has revealed that many hikikomori cases have a sedentary lifestyle, which may harm both their mental and physical health. In this case, there are many frameworks that can be used to maintain the recovery process. This conceptual framework is composed by five recovery processes: Connectedness, Hope and optimism about the future, Identity, Meaning in life, and Empowerment.

The Recovery Process: CHIME framework

Computers, video games, and technological devices are part of young people’s everyday lives. Hikikomori is a Japanese word describing a condition that mainly affects adolescents or young adults who live isolated from the world, cloistered within their parents’ homes, locked in their bedrooms for days, months, or even years on end, and refusing to communicate even with their family.

Hikikomori: Acute Social Withdrawal

Like internet addiction, Hikikomori is an emerging psychiatric diagnosis, and the definition and clinical features are still a matter of debate.But one thing is obvious: the hikikomori are acutely aware of their own pain. They are likely to feel acute guilt for subjecting family to their quirks and, at the same time, report feeling suffocated by their shut-in ways.As the researchers conclude:‘The condition of hikikomori requires active intervention instead of the passive attitude stating that it is merely a lifestyle choice.’

Further Treatment

There are several steps we can take to cope with anxiety disorder symptoms.1. Explore stress management: Learn ways to manage stress, such as through meditation.2. Live a healthy lifestyle: Exercise regularly and eat a healthy, balanced diet.3. Limit caffeine: Stop or limit how much caffeine we consume, including coffee, tea, cola and chocolate.4. Join support groups: These groups encourage people with anxiety disorders to share their experiences and coping strategies.4. Seek help: Get counseling and support if we experienced a traumatic or disturbing event.

Cope With Anxiety Disorders Symptoms

Computers, video games and technological devices are part of young people's everyday lives. Hikikomori, a Japanese word describing a condition that mainly affects adolescents or young adults who live isolated from the world, cloistered within their parents’ homes, locked in their bedrooms for days, months or even years on end, refusing to communicate even with their family, using internet profusely and only venturing out to deal with their most imperative bodily needs. Although first described in Japan, cases have been described from around the world, this is the first published report from Canada. The disorder shares characteristics with prodromal psychosis, negative symptoms of schizophrenia or internet addiction, which are common differential or comorbid diagnoses. Certain cases, however, are not accompanied by a mental disorder. Psychotherapy is the treatment of choice although many cases are reluctant to present. The exact place of hikikomori in psychiatric nosology has yet to be determined. We searched Medline up to 12th May, 2015 supplemented by a hand search of the bibliographies of all retrieved articles. We used the following search terms: Hikikomori OR (prolonged AND social AND withdrawal). We found 97 potential papers. Of these 42, were in Japanese, and one in Korean. However, many of these were cited by subsequent English-language papers that were included in the review. Following scrutiny of the titles and abstracts, 29 were judged to be relevant. Further research is needed to distinguish between primary and secondary hikikomori and establish whether this is a new diagnostic entity, or particular cultural or societal manifestations of established diagnoses.

Internet Addiction, Hikikomori Syndrome, and the Prodromal Phase of Psychosis

1. Use our sense. Focusing on our senses, like the sound of the ocean lapping up on the shore, the smell of the coconut sunblock, and the feel of the sun warming our body. This is a meditation 101 kind of thinking. So, maybe we’re not on the beach somewhere, but we can still notice the subtle, pleasant things around us, maybe it’s the way raindrops are sliding down a window.2. Stop multi-tasking. When we’re showering, only focus on the experience of showering. Just wash the dishes; be present without phone calls, music, or podcasts to distract us.

Part 1: Habits To Increase JOMO

7. Smell our food: This goes back to the point about our senses and is a practical way to make it a habit. Engage in more than just taste when we eat a meal.8. Look into someone’s eyes. Even when we’re having conversations, we rarely look one another in the eyes. Slow down and really sink into eye contact with someone. See how it slows down the rapidity of life.9. Ground ourselves. Noting the texture of the chair we’re sitting in, how it feels to note the texture of our hands and sensing the shoes on our feet are all ways to bring us into our present physical experience.

Part 3: Habits To Increase JOMO

FOMO, an acronym for “Fear of Missing Out” has become a popular internet term in the last few years.The term FOMO was originally popularized by entrepreneur Caterina Fake. FOMO is a modern-day form of “keeping up with the Joneses.” Where people were once trying to keep up with a handful of neighbors, they’re now trying to keep up with hundreds, even thousands of social media friends and followers.

The Origin Of FOMO

JOMO, or “Joy of Missing Out” is a counter-term created by entrepreneur Anil Dash. While people with FOMO may second-guess their choices and wonder if they could be having more fun elsewhere, people with JOMO embrace the choices they have made and find joy in the present situation.Rather than worrying about what we may or may not be missing out on, try making the choice that is best for us and owning that decision. Find happiness in what we’re doing, and remind ourselves why we made the choice in the first place.

Embrace The Jomo

3. Inhale…exhale. Take 4 deep breathes and focus on the breath. If we are truly focused on our breath, there is nowhere else for our mind to go.4. Practice gratitude. Taking time to note all things one can be thankful for helps us focus on what ‘is’ rather than what ‘could be’.5. Give ourselves three mindful minutes every day. That’s all it takes. Using an app like the Calm app or Headspace can be a great way to practice a guided meditation.6. Go for a walk.

Part 2: Habits To Increase JOMO

Be joyful. Be simple. Be together. Be real. Be messy. Make life personal. Remove the arms-length distractions of technology. Choose real connections rather than shallow distractions.

Important: More JOMO, Less FOMO

FOMO describes that gnawing feeling we get when we think something more exciting or fulfilling is going on somewhere else, without us. It can range from a twinge of disappointment, to feelings of acute loneliness and low self-esteem. FOMO can also strike when we have too many options. We might choose to go on an amazing date, but we'll still sneak a look at our phone to see what we're missing with our mates. And that's the real killer: FOMO stops us from ever being truly present in the moment.

Festive FOMO Threats

Social media has spawned the crippling fear of missing out, and wanting what others have. But one expert thinks leaning into your FOMO can, strangely, make you happier.
