  • Lichterfest Dortmund, Aug 16, 2014

    Posted on Wednesday, 20.08.2014 12:20 by sebrem Comment

    On Saturday I’ve been to Micro!Festival and from there with a small group at Lichterfest (festival of lights) in Westfalenpark. For € 10 you got some light installations and a fireworks. Would have been nice in a more romantic setting, but, alas, not this time 😉

  • Hilfe bei Depressionen in Dortmund

    Posted on Tuesday, 12.08.2014 09:56 by sebrem 1 Comment

    Ich möchte den traurigen Anlaß mit dem Tod von Robin Williams als Gelegenheit verwenden, darauf hinzuweisen, wo man in Dortmund Hilfe findet, wenn man Probleme mit Depressionen hat oder sich allgemein hilflos fühlt:

    • Der Hausarzt ist sicher meistens der erste Ansprechpartner, wenn man eine vertrauensvolle Beziehung zu ihm pflegt. Ein guter Hausarzt nimmt sich entsprechend die Zeit, wenn die Stichwörter genannt werden.
    • Für Studenten gibt es an der Uni auch die Psychologische Beratung
    • Selbsthilfegruppen findet man hier Selbsthilfe Dortmund – zum Stichwort Depression hier Selbsthilfe Dortmund – Stichpunkt Depression
    • In Hörde am evangelischen Krankenhaus Bethanien gibt es ein Krisenzentrum
    • Entscheidet man sich für eine Therapie, hilft die KVWL schnell und unkompliziert weiter: Therapieplatzsuche

    Die meisten Angebote sind kostenlos und niederschwellig. Bei den meisten Selbsthilfegruppen sollte man sich vorher informieren, ob es Regeln gibt, die einem dann evtl. zusagen oder auch nicht.

    Einen Therapeuten kann man sich selber über die KVWL suchen, letztendlich benötigt man dann aber später eine Überweisung durch den Hausarzt. Stellt der Psychotherapeut nach einigen probatorischen Sitzungen fest, daß eine Behandlung sinnvoll ist, wird ein Kostenübernahmeantrag an die Krankenkasse gestellt (d.h. die Krankenkassen übernehmen die Kosten für eine Therapie). Es gibt große Unterschiede zwischen den einzelnen Therapieformen, die ich jetzt nicht erläutern kann, das hängt auch davon ab, welche Ausbildung der Therapeuth gemacht hat (Psychiater, Psychologe, Psychologischer Psychotherapeuth) – es hat jedenfalls nichts damit zu tun, daß man “happy pills” verschrieben bekommt oder ein “Psycho” ist.
    Wichtig wäre noch zu wissen, daß die Aufnahme einer Therapie den Abschluß einer Berufsunfähigkeitsversicherung nahezu komplett verhindert.

    Die Kassenärztlichen Vereinigungen anderer Regionen lassen sich über die Bundesärztliche Vereinigung finden: KBV – evtl. sind es erstmal Direktlinks zur Arztsuche, über die Seite der jeweiligen KV sollte aber dann eine Therapieplatzvergabe erreichbar sein.

  • Supermoon, Aug 11, 2014

    Posted on Monday, 11.08.2014 09:12 by sebrem Comment

    There was this supermoon – I noticed its brightness, but could not compare the size. It’s hard to take proper pictures without professional equipment like a tripod or remote control. It was nice I could watch it from my bedroom though 🙂 See Youtube here and here for some footage.

    I passed this little yellow flowers on my way home close to Dortmund University. I think you already might have noticed that I prefer to shoot flowers when they are visited by insects 😉

  • Burg Altena / Westfalenpark Dortmund / Schloß Burg / Kanal, Jul 17-19, 2014

    Posted on Saturday, 19.07.2014 21:07 by sebrem Comment

    I did host Carmen from Spain a couple of days and she was very touristic, so I took two days off from work and we went to Burg Altena, Westfalenpark and Schloß Burg.

    This is Burg Altena, one hour from Dortmund by train (Picasa):

    [alpine-phototile-for-picasa-and-google-plus src=”user_album” uid=”114159417905468681891″ ualb=”6037481509357060289″ imgl=”fancybox” style=”bookshelf” row=”4″ size=”400″ num=”6″ align=”center” max=”100″]

    Then we went to Westfalenpark Dortmund and went for the tv tower (Picasa):

    [alpine-phototile-for-picasa-and-google-plus src=”user_album” uid=”114159417905468681891″ ualb=”6037482053762359889″ imgl=”fancybox” style=”bookshelf” row=”4″ size=”400″ num=”10″ align=”center” max=”100″]

    On the next morning we went to Solingen to visit Schloß Burg. On the way we passed the Schwebebahn in Wuppertal and also had the opportunity to use the ropeway up to the castle 🙂 On the way back we went for the full ride with the Schwebebahn from Wuppertal-Vohwinkel to Wuppertal-Oberbarmen (Picasa):

    [alpine-phototile-for-picasa-and-google-plus src=”user_album” uid=”114159417905468681891″ ualb=”6037489233852118273″ imgl=”fancybox” style=”bookshelf” row=”4″ size=”400″ num=”18″ align=”center” max=”100″]

    On her last day in Dortmund I took her to Dortmund-Ems-Kanal for a relaxing hour. We were sitting in the shadow of a tree, with the canal in our back and having a look at Deusen (Picasa):

    [alpine-phototile-for-picasa-and-google-plus src=”user_album” uid=”114159417905468681891″ ualb=”6038088954491112865″ imgl=”fancybox” style=”bookshelf” row=”4″ size=”400″ num=”6″ align=”center” max=”100″]

    Yesterday I took the opportunity to extend a walk home with a visit in Brügmanns Hölzchen, which is located in Hoeschpark (close to B236).

  • Sommer am U, Jun 22, 2014

    Posted on Thursday, 03.07.2014 13:56 by sebrem Comment

    Sommer am U, 23.6.14I spent the weekend of June 22/23 at U Turm, Dortmund, as there has been the last chance to see the exposition “World of Matter” and also on this weekend there was Schau-Festival. There also was “Sommer am U” but as you can see in the picture Dörte took of me there unfortunately was not too much going on outside.

  • S1 train operating again, Jun 16, 2014

    Posted on Thursday, 03.07.2014 12:59 by sebrem Comment

    After the storm some trains in the area have been out of operation for nearly a week and as far as I know the S6 between Essen and Cologne still will be repaired for a month. I’ve been happy to use the S1 one week later again 🙂
