Question 2

how can i think positive and change my patterns?

Accepted Answer

Let's count the ways: "the power of positive thinking, " as described in the 1950s & 60s, is not as effective as the following: (1) the power of non-negative thinking (stopping dysfunctional or automatic negative thoughts); and (2) taking actions that have been shown to increase positivity (as a side effect), such as expressing genuine gratitude, generosity, or love, and even simply pursuing curiosity or goals. Act now!

Question 3

what can i do to break the pattern of fainting after shots?

Accepted Answer

Vasodepressor synd: You might have vasodepressor syndrome.  I think having a tilt table test to make a diagnosis would be good start.  You need to see your doctor for a referral.  
Adequate hydration before future shots might be useful and sometimes people need medications to stop syncope / passing out. 

Good luck.

Question 4

how do i build up a new thinking pattern and creative thoughts ?

Accepted Answer

Read and think: not the usual health question but I take the challenge. read a lot, you will see how others develop ideas logically. Sometimes emotion triggers thinking and analysis. Examine yours and their origins and imagine a more satisfying world. Read again about the things that affect you. Lastly try to identify what goals and actions you need to aim for. Then read again. Identify good role models/mentors

Question 5

my son is four months old and has changed his eating pattern to every five hours. is that bad?

Accepted Answer

Wt Gain Says it All!: When a parent asks if their infant is getting enough, i often reply 'if he is gaining weight well, he is getting enough'. Unless there is a medical problem, most infants do great regulating their own intake. If he feeds eagerly, is content, otherwise healthy and is thriving things are probably ok. Growth is an important measure to be followed regularly by his doctor.
