I don't know when, everyone more or less showed a rotten mentality.
In particular, the recurrence of the epidemic situation, all kinds of sealing, isolation, etc., whether it is economic and social development, or the lives of the people have been greatly affected.
As the saying goes: any grain of dust of the times that falls on an individual is a concrete and small event.
It is precisely because of the economic impact of the epidemic, coupled with the vacillating life, that many people have fallen into different degrees of negative emotions.
During the pandemic, the number of people with depression worldwide increased by 27.6%, an increase of more than a quarter
As early as 2021, a study published by the University of Queensland in Australia in the authoritative medical journal The Lancet showed that the new crown epidemic has triggered a global surge in major depression and anxiety.
Studies show that global cases of major depressive disorder and anxiety increased by 28% and 26%, respectively, in 2020, with the largest increase in prevalence in the countries hardest hit by the epidemic.
Of the new major depressive disorder, more than 35 million are women, compared to nearly 18 million men.
During the epidemic, how to escape the "pendulum" posture?
According to statistics, there are currently more than 300 million people with depression in the world, with an incidence rate of up to 11%, which means that 1 in every 10 people may be depressed.
British writer Matt Hagrid suffered from depression at the age of 24, and he later overcame his illness, came out of depression, and wrote a best-selling book, "Reason to Live".
The book chronicles the various pains he suffered from depression and how he healed himself and eventually returned to a normal life.
Matt believes depression has three characteristics: concealment, emotional deficit, and self-destructiveness.
From the outside, you can't see the difference between a depressed person and the average person. Because depression is a psychological disease, others simply do not feel the pain in the patient's heart.
They are devoid of sexiness, lose their enthusiasm for life, are uninterested in everything, and no matter how beautiful things are, patients cannot experience. Depression reaches a certain degree of severity, patients can not get rid of pain, can not live normally, may appear self-harm, suicidal behavior.
How did Matt heal himself?
After he was diagnosed with depression, he began to accept depression. During the illness, I went back to summarize the healing experience and did 3 things to fight depression:
First, accept the treatment of depression
Reflect on your own life experiences, especially those that have caused great psychological trauma to yourself. There are many unpleasant experiences in life, which make the patient very unconfident, but don't be afraid.
In fact, anyone can suffer from depression, such as Lincoln, Hemingway, Van Gogh, some celebrities have suffered from depression.
No matter how bad you have been, learn to love yourself, begin to value your body and feelings, no longer escape depression, face its existence, deal with the negative emotions, change distorted cognition, wrong stereotyped thinking and behavior patterns.
Second, actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment
It is very important to see a doctor, after all, doctors are more professional and will prescribe drugs according to the specific conditions of depressed patients. If there is any problem with the body, tell the doctor in time, conduct multiple psychological consultations, and go to the hospital regularly for review.
Doctors prescribe antidepressants, such as Prozac, Zoloft, etc., which can be adjusted and increased or decreased according to the condition.
However, the drug has a certain course of treatment, not a day or two can solve the problem, you need to insist on taking the drug, if the effect is not obvious, you can find some other new ways to treat the disease.
Third, unfold self-healing
In addition, there are many ways to treat depression, such as writing, traveling, yoga, meditation, etc.
For depressed patients, it is necessary to bravely accept reality, actively cooperate with doctors' treatment, and maintain healthy living habits in order to get out of the darkness.
In addition, when depressed patients are onset, they are often accompanied by symptoms of anxiety, which will put the patient's mind in a fast-forward state, and if you want to cure depression, you must slow down.
When the pace of life and work slows down, anxiety and depression automatically ease.
Refuse to "swing rotten", refuse to "break the can and break"
Nowadays, the word "rotten" is seen as a kind of self-ridicule of young people in the spirit of pleasure, admitting their own inadequacies, reconciling with themselves, and finding a decent excuse for their laxity.
Liu Zhenyun once said: "All things in the world cannot withstand scrutiny, and once you deliberate, everything hides grievances." ”
Under the pressure of the epidemic, perhaps in the eyes of depressed patients, the world is gray.
But positive psychology tells us that everything is intentional, that stress stimulates our vitality, and that bad emotions lead us to the root of the problem.
So perhaps no one knows when the outbreak will end.
But we may as well learn to introduce our own limitations, and in this period of suspension, we may wish to experience more deeply the extraordinary value of the impermanence of life and living in the present.
Wait for the haze to clear, you and I meet, go to see the world you haven't seen before!
