The poem "The Cure" is basically about this person not having the will to get better and cure his illness or sickness. Even though he knows that his health is struggling he still feels that no one can help him. I think the most health that is being damaged is his mental and emotional health. So this means that his health triangle is unbalanced.
The physical health in this poem would be "so I agree to begin attending therapy, but I never go." Since this person never went to their therapy then they are not getting the treatment they need. Which is important to their health. The mental and emotional health would be "I know that there is no cure or treatment for my kind of "messed up." Your mental and emotional health includes your feelings about yourself. This person obviously feels horrible about himself and that no one can help him. People with good emotional health avoid dwellings in negative thoughts. This person is only focusing on the negative thoughts by saying "I know that there's no cure or treatment for my kind of "messed up." So this person mental and emotional health is suffering a lot. With their mental and emotional health unbalancing the health triangle then their whole health is messed up. The social health of this poem would be “you need help! They say to me constantly.” I think this person has communication problems. He clearly know that there is only hope with him living is to go to the therapy but he just ignores the doctor pleads toward him. I think that this person not only has health problems but is depressed, because they do not have the will to even attempt to get better and live. This person has probably had a tough life and thinks that no one will miss him or even care if he is gone. That is why they are depressed. When I think of this person I think that they have very little support and acknowledge from other people that is why he feels like he does not belong, he is not love, and mainly he is messed up in the head. But since he thinks and kind of knows

Though we don't know how genuine this legend is, Franklin helped lay the foundation for batteries, the electric motor, the lightbulb, and the true nature of electricity. While he used a kite to harness electricity from lightning, we normally think of kites as merely entertainment on…

NO CURE FOR CROWDING: How modern medicine is the cause of overpopulation MAGGIE L. Sometime around 460 BCE, Hippocrates, a Greek physician and founder of the first university was born.

Since then, medical advancements have been increasing at an accelerated…
Therapeutic Cancer cure being tested on Humans A new cure for the most common skin cancer, melanoma, is being tested on people. The usual technique to get rid of cancerous cells is to extract and then destroy them. However this new cure uses a disk-shaped biodegradable sponge which programmes white blood cells to kill the mutated ones. If this cure does work it could save many lives. Melanoma is the 18th most common cause of cancer deaths; in 2011 it killed 2,209 people in the UK…
DQ1 Prevention, rather than cure is the major goal of any community. The society has to work together as one for disease prevention and outbreaks. How does a society manage this if not everyone is treated equally or respected appropriately? Are there solutions to this? Some ways in which this can be solved are by offering free screenings of diseases, and providing immunization. A vaccination helps in two ways. It helps the person who receives it as they now won’t get the disease, and it…
