Political Jet Lag can have you wish to see a Shrink
By Datuk Syed Nadzri Syed Harun |syedn@nst.com.my
NOW which they've come up with a very amusing expression "social jet lag" to report modern-day tired resulting from work stress as well as bustling schedules, you competence as well, during slightest in Malaysia's case, magnify it to "political jet lag", given everything around us is revolving around zero else though breakneck politics.
According to headlines reports from Germany late final week, researchers from LMU University in Munich said amicable jet loiter was a outcome of a clash in between a person's biological rhythms, together with nap patterns, as well as his chaotic schedules, despotic work demands, as well as a bustling amicable life.
The consequence? Chronic fatigue, faith upon caffeine, ethanol as well as cigarettes, as well as wider waistlines. Having to be during a bureau early, operative prolonged hours indoors, amicable engagements after work as well as running around to keep up with a complicated hold up is wreaking havoc upon 80 per cent of people in Western countries, says chronobiologist Prof Till Roenneberg, who coined a tenure amicable jet lag.
I do not know about being hooked upon caffeine, alcohol, cigarettes as well as cigars, or wider waistlines. But there is really a strong case which Malaysia, or during slightest most Malaysians, have been cheerless with domestic jet loiter a relapse of a physique clock following continuous exposure, night as well as day, to domestic scenery as well as unqualified power-plays never quite seen prior to in t! his coun try.
And this has influenced everyone's "time zones" as it has been starting upon for some-more than a year now, ever given a guessing diversion proposed for a date of a 13th ubiquitous election.
Jet loiter is a lousy feeling. Besides tired as well as insomnia, experts say a jet loiter sufferer may knowledge a number of earthy as well as emotional symptoms, together with anxiety, constipation, diarrhoea, confusion, dehydration, headache, irritability, nausea, sweating, coordination problems, dizziness as well as even memory loss. Some people inform a single more symptoms, such as heartbeat irregularities as well as increasing susceptibility to illness.
Come to consider of it, a little of a on top of signs sound as well informed when related to Malaysian domestic jet lag:
ANXIETY: This restlessness as well as fluster has grown for most months now, heightening final year when it was rumoured which a Prime Minister would call for snap elections. The guessing diversion for a date of a 13th ubiquitous choosing is right away essence of a day each day.
CONSTIPATION: A side-effect of as well most pent-up annoy (geram) in most people who have been as well partisan in governing physique as well as who always believe which a other side should be subjugated during all costs. The strain of this kind of fervour affects one's bowel movements.
DIARRHOEA: Seems to be a opposite of a on top of though refers exclusively to scour of a written kind, which you find in cocky personalities who consider they have been a godsend as well as which they as well as usually they could save Malaysia.
CONFUSION: The blurring of lines about what's right as well as wrong. The inclination is sometimes so offensive which visualisation gets dark in a process, as a little people choose to see usually what they wish to see. For instance, they competence report a certain person as a soaring Malay a single day as well as a ! traitor a next.
HEADACHE AND DIZZINESS: The set of symptoms affects politicians considering what's to come should their party win or should it lose in a elections. Who's starting to be menteri besar? Or home minister?
IRRITABILITY: Many ordinary people sink in to this state when they consider about a sheer audacity as well as lack of toleration displayed by a little politicians who go to a "different kettle of fish", generally those who talk so most about democracy as well as honesty though do not take as well kindly to dissent. They also sue during a dump of a hat.
NAUSEA: Irritability (as above) turns to this when you have been faced with crude as well as sickening antics in a name of politics. A clear example was a young "exercises" as well as burger stalls you read about final week which has beckoned counter-demos. Silly as well as no class.
SWEATING: This occurs when domestic wannabes or vain personalities consider about who will have it to a possibilities list for a elections. "I am a winnable candidate" seems to be a syok sendiri carol of many.
COORDINATION PROBLEMS: Some parties have been guidance a hard approach in anticipating a common platform to face a tested Barisan Nasional. Seems like a hudud emanate is up in a air again.
MEMORY LOSS: Also well known as resourceful amnesia. Whatever happened to all a pledges made to secure Selangor? Uncollected rubbish, water problems, etc. And demeanour during a condition of a roads in a state.
HEARTBEAT IRREGULARITIES: The uncertainties which means a little people to blow hot as well as cold as a outcome of so most guessing games.
DEPRESSION: Knowing which a ubiquitous choosing could actually be delayed.
It is all straddling across a domestic time zones.
