RUDIKE [14]3 years ago

1816 was a time when the overwhelming majority of the world’s population depended on subsistence agriculture, living precariously from harvest to harvest. When the crops failed that year, and again the next, starving rural legions from China to map iconIreland swarmed out of the countryside to market towns to beg for alms or sell their children in exchange for food. Famine-friendly diseases cholera and typhus stalked the globe from map iconIndia to map iconItaly, while the price of bread and rice, the world’s staple foods, skyrocketed with no relief in sight. Across a European continent devastated by the Napoleonic wars, tens of thousands of unemployed veterans found themselves unable to feed their families. They gave vent to their desperation in town square riots and military-style campaigns of arson, while governments everywhere feared revolution. In map iconNew England, 1816 was nicknamed “Eighteen-Hundred-and-Froze-to-Death,” while Germans called 1817 “The Year of the Beggar.” In terms of its enduring presence in folklore, as well as its status in the scientific literature, 1816’s cold summer was the most significant meteorological event of the nineteenth century. The global climate emergency period of 1816-18, as a whole, offers us a clear window onto a world convulsed by weather anomalies, with human communities everywhere struggling to adapt to sudden, radical shifts in weather patterns, and to a consequent tsunami of famine, disease, dislocation and unrest.

SERIOUS QUESTION!! Who can write a 5 paragraph story for me? ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AND EXTRA POINTS
Cloud [144]

Answer:

I'll do it

I am sitting here staring at a little square of the blank wall. My square where I can zone out and not think about my medication, my issues, where I am in life and what is going on. I am starting to zone out and think about when I can finally get out of this stupid mental hospital. Suddenly I stop zoning out as she taps me, Dr. Evans she says it's time for my medications and lunchtime.

I have been here multiple times now so she knows the joke I am about to make " Dr. Evans should I have the large cheeseburger maybe a milkshake and some chips to go with it"? Dr. Evans starts to shake her head as I giggle. I am in the hospital for depression and an eating disorder. We go to my room as I take my medications before lunch.

Although lunch doesn't sound amazing I do get to see some of my friends there so that's nice I guess. I don't eat though well obviously it's a serious issue that's effected me and everyone around me. I believe that if I eat something bad then I am bad I don't want to eat but I don't want my brother to see my like this I'm supposed to be strong for him and I feel like I've let him down.

I ended up staying in the hospital for about 2 months until I realized that I need to get better for my brother, for my mom, for my dad. This is a serious issue and it needs to get better I don't want to continue living like this I want to be happy and live a good life. I don't want to constantly look in the mirror and be upset.

They finally released me from the hospital and at home I help my mom cook dinner and I even eat some of it. A few months go by and I'm eating all 3 meals everyday and I'm feeling happier and stronger. I still visit my doctor's every now and then and thank them for everything they did for me. I'm so grateful that I got help from my doctor's, therapist, and my family.

Something you're proud of​
exis [7]

Answer:

Hi myself Shrushtee.

Explanation:

Being Honest With Yourself And Others

Admitting you need help is just one example of another thing you should be proud of: honesty. We are alone in our heads and we can spend so much time worrying about what others are doing or what they might think, that we conceal our true selves.
