Hello everyone! Welcome or welcome back to another episode of my podcast if you are watching or blog if you are reading!

I hope that the information that is provided down below allows you to feel informed about why over-stimulation might occur and how to take care of yourself and others when you see them over-stimulated!

Now we are going to dive deep into what over-stimulation really is and some symptoms!

What is over-stimulation?

According to Cambridge English dictionary, over-stimulation is the fact of being made too excited or interested in something.

Merriam-Webster dictionary, states that over-stimulated means that one is excessively stimulated. The brain, responding to higher than normal dopamine levels.

My idea of over-stimulation is when you have a large amount of things happening all at once and you become overwhelmed.

Signs of Over-Stimulation:

extreme irritability

difficulty focusing due to competing sensory input

urge to cover your ears or shield your eyes from sensory input

https://www.healthline.com (What Is Sensory Overload)

An example of over-stimulation could be, you have been doing homework for 6 hours straight, you are ready to be done, but you think you have to get in all done in one setting, and as you are finishing up...you pinch your finger in the drawer where your computer charger goes and your roommate is listening to music loudly in the bathroom and all you want to do is cry.

I tend to find myself in this state when I lack taking breaks throughout the day. I find that taking breaks is very helpful for your mind to feel at ease. Some ideas for taking breaks are meditation, working out or something else that brings you joy. Taking a "breather" allows you to remember that it is okay to be feeling this way, but you are in charge of whether this occurs so take action now!

Try these if you are feeling over-stimulated:

1.) Remove yourself from the situation

2.) Find a quiet and safe space

3.) Practice mindfulness through journaling and meditation

4.) Getting a good nights sleep - this will help rejuvenate your body

5.) Daily health; body movement & sunshine will help you feel motivated and ready to conquer the day!

6.) Technology; when spending hours on social media we tend to really on it for dopamine purposes rather than exploring life around us and the things we see on social media platforms makes us what to be different from our original self. This creates over-stimulation within itself because we feel we have to eat healthier or buy certain items to be cool or skinny as everyone else and this puts stress on our mental and physical well being.

Thank you all for reading this message! See you again very soon!

Is Social Media Useful in Spreading Information on COVID-19 in Malaysia?

In the current digital era, social media has become an integral part of our lives, connecting us to our family, friends, and the world. In addition to sharing photos, social media has played a significant role in disseminating information about crucial issues, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. Let's explore how social media helps spread virus-related information and its impact on digital communities.

The Power of Social Media for COVID-19 Information

1. Rapid Dissemination of Information

During the early phases of the COVID-19 pandemic, the increased social media activity in Malaysia played a crucial role. Malaysians were well-connected digitally, as they spent an average of 2 hours and 47 minutes daily on social media, surpassing the global average by a significant margin. This participation was primarily motivated by the need to obtain information (76.2%) and keep up with news and events (65.8%). Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp were the primary sources for vital updates, news, and recommendations. This ongoing flow of information helps increase the awareness and preparedness of the digital community (Howe, 2023).

2. Real-time Updates

The Malaysian government provided up-to-date COVID-19 information via e-government and social media. They relied on channels such as the Ministry of Health's Official Portal, specialised Facebook pages (such as CRPC and KKM), and the CPRC KKM channel on Telegram. The Director-General of Health's daily press briefings are not only broadcast live on television but also live online via Facebook. In April 2020, they released the MySejahtera mobile app to assist users in monitoring their health and reporting check-in locations, allowing for prompt responses to control the spread of the virus (Dawi et al., 2021).

3. Community Support

During these difficult times, social media has been essential in helping Malaysians feel more connected to one another, with many Facebook groups and online communities offering information and support. For example, neighbours used platforms such as Nextdoor to offer assistance to those in need, and digital communities united in unprecedented ways to share resources and aid one another (FMT Media Sdn Bhd, 2020). Moreover,  #benderaputih groups were formed on Facebook to share addresses for assistance and information on local food banks, with Malaysians in need flying white flags outside their residences to indicate distress. The digital community, including neighbours, personalities, and businesses, responded by donating food and other necessities, demonstrating the power of social media to bring communities together in times of crisis (BBC News, 2021).

4. Countering Misinformation

By actively utilizing social media, the Malaysian Ministry of Health (KKM) has taken significant measures to combat COVID-19 misinformation. Through their official social media channels, KKM provides accurate and up-to-date information, dispels misconceptions, and addresses concerns, ensuring that the public receives trustworthy information and is better equipped to make informed decisions during the pandemic. In addition, KKM has released information about the repercussions of disseminating false information. This proactive approach not only helps counter Misinformation but also fosters a sense of trust in official sources, which is crucial during a public health crisis (Euronews, 2020).

The Dark Side of Social Media in COVID-19 Information Spread

1. Misinformation and Rumors

In Malaysia, as in many other countries, social media has served as a breeding ground for Misinformation and rumors about COVID-19. Facebook and WhatsApp have been used to spread false information about the virus's origins, prevention, and treatment options. This has led to public confusion and, in some cases, hazardous behavior, such as disregarding medical advice. False information can undermine the efforts of health authorities and exacerbate the pandemic's effects, causing unnecessary alarm (Balakrishnan et al., 2021).

2. Amplification of Fear

Despite its many advantages, social media can be a double-edged instrument, particularly during a crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic. One of its negative characteristics is its potential to amplify fear and anxiety. Sensationalized headlines and the dissemination of misleading images can elicit strong emotions, resulting in increased stress and negative effects on mental health. The internet has been rife with misleading information about the virus, including conspiracy theories and misleading statistics. There have been instances where images fraudulently purporting to depict the coronavirus under a microscope have caused panic and confusion. Such false information can be extensively disseminated on social media platforms like Facebook, inciting panic and undermining accurate comprehension (Euronews, 2020).

Conclusion

In conclusion, social media has proven to be a powerful tool in spreading information about COVID-19 in Malaysia. During the pandemic, it rapidly disseminated vital information and connected people, nurturing community and support. The government's use of social media channels contributed to disseminating timely information to the public. However, this has a negative aspect: disseminating false information and terror. Misinformation and sensationalized content have led to public perplexity and hysteria. To maximize the benefits of social media, we must use it responsibly and ensure that accurate information prevails, particularly during the pandemic. Connecting and informing us, social media can be a force for good, but it is up to each of us to ensure that it serves our best interests.

Have you ever wondered...

Have you ever wondered how quickly you can detect signs of a heart attack? An Electrocardiogram can save your life! 📈 It can detect recent heart attack signals within a few hours to a couple of days. 🚑 The ECG acts like a heart detective, recording electrical signals and revealing specific patterns that indicate danger. However, it may not detect early signs, so additional tests may be necessary. If you feel a heart attack coming on, seek medical help immediately! 🏥 Taking swift action increases the chances of receiving effective treatment. Remember, your heart is important – always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice! 💙
