Many people may wonder: Is depression so scary? Why hasn't it been cured after so many years?
Strictly speaking, depression is a depressive disorder. It is a group of mood disorders with significant and persistent low mood as the main clinical feature. Its symptoms include slow thinking, cognitive function decline, negative cognitive pattern, and three asymptomatic (hopeless) , helplessness, uselessness), psychomotor retardation, anxiety, psychotic symptoms, etc.
The onset of depression is related to biological factors, social factors and psychological factors. The average age of onset of depression is between 20 and 30 years old, and there are approximately 350 million patients with depression worldwide. The 2019 National Epidemiological Survey showed that the lifetime prevalence of depression was 6.8%, and the recurrence rate ranged from 50% to 85%.
Depression, as a common psychological disease in modern clinical practice, is often not cured overnight. In most cases, it is closely related to one's emotions and spirit. When stress accumulates little by little, it will induce the disease. If patients can detect their physical abnormalities in time and actively take measures to make relevant adjustments, they may be able to avoid suffering from depression.
Usually, people suffering from depression tend to say the following mantras in daily life, and most of them are said intentionally or unintentionally. To this, everyone must pay enough attention.
1. "It's all my fault"
If you are surrounded by people suffering from depression, you will often hear them say: "It seems that everything is my fault, and I am a superfluous existence." In fact, for patients with depression, one of the most obvious symptoms is that they are prone to self-blame, which is most likely closely related to their family of origin. For example, many depressed patients have been in an "overly moral" environment. Growing up, the so-called excessive emphasis on morality means that no matter what happens, parents will advocate that their children need to reflect and admit that they have made mistakes.
2. "Nothing is interesting"
If people suffer from depression, another prominent symptom is that they easily lose interest and desire. According to relevant scientific clinical studies, people with depression often experience abnormalities in three brain neurotransmitters, namely serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) abnormalities, norepinephrine abnormalities, and dopamine abnormalities.
Among them, 5-hydroxytryptamine is mainly distributed in the hypothalamus and pineal gland of the human body. It can participate in the regulation of physiological functions of the human body, such as sleep state, body temperature, etc. It can also affect human happiness to a certain extent, and People with depression have significantly lower serotonin levels than ordinary people. Therefore, they are prone to sleep disorders, especially insomnia, and are prone to feeling worried and depressed.
3. "It's better to die than to live."
For people with depression, whenever they encounter some small setbacks or difficulties, it is easy to say some extremely pessimistic and annoying words. They will feel that they cannot overcome the obstacles in front of them and that they are worthless. When it is severe, you may even feel that life is meaningless and living is the greatest suffering.
Such people may not have outstanding performance in their daily work, but in their personal lives they are prone to outbursts of negative emotions, habitually blame others, and often mention death intentionally or unintentionally or commit some acts of self-harm.
4. "I'm good for nothing, no good anywhere."
If a person loses interest in the world, then ordinary people may only feel that "the world is boring and empty", while patients with depression will say "I am boring, useless, not only insignificant" I don't have any ability" and a series of remarks.
For this type of people, no matter what changes have taken place in the external world, they will blame themselves for bad things. Therefore, from a psychological point of view, it is often believed that patients with depression have extremely high moral standards. So bound by standards that they will resort to self-attack in such a way.
