Feel like you have depression? Take a self-test based on symptoms

 In recent years, more and more people in our country have begun to pay attention to the importance of mental health, and depression has also been paid attention to by more and more people. However, there are still many people who do not understand depression and feel that depression is far away from them.

However, maybe people around you are experiencing the torment of depression or showing signs of depression. There will be some precursors before the onset of the disease, and depression is no exception. As a mental illness, does depression really come silently?

Lack of energy

In fact, there are a lot of people like Xiaoda in the workplace. Some of them will fall into a state of self-blame, believing that they are too lazy to make their work unsatisfactory. But this may not be the case.

In fact, some people with depression often show slowness of action, and lack of energy to do things. In fact, this has nothing to do with laziness or laziness, just because depression can damage the function of the human brain and body. Some trivial things in the eyes of normal people can make them exhausted, even work and study.

Excessive sleep or insomnia

Some people with depression often doze off. Excessive sleep is a way for them to escape the negative emotions in reality, and this kind of sleep disorder will make patients always feel tired. Other patients show restlessness, sleep interruption and even insomnia. Depression causes poor sleep, and poor sleep worsens depression, a vicious circle.

Lose interest and feel like I am useless

Maybe you used to love playing with your colleagues, but in recent weeks, the activities that once made you excited are now dull. Depression deprives people of the ability to seek pleasure from past experiences, which will lead to a vicious circle.

When people repeatedly think that they are not good enough, unimportant, etc., they will be more inclined to seek some way to prove these negative thoughts, which will also make people with depression face more risks.

Thinking and cognitive impairment

As depression continues to worsen, patients will have multiple manifestations such as slow response and decreased memory. Feeling suspicious, constantly doing various checks on things, but still not at ease, lost everything, feels unable to control everything and feels powerless.

When faced with certain problems, he will hesitate and make mistakes. And I magnified all the mistakes infinitely, and my life became a mess, I lost my temper at every turn, and it was difficult to concentrate on doing things. Even social dysfunction occurs and language communication cannot be carried out normally.

Thought of committing suicide

If a person who was once very optimistic, recently often said that being alive is boring, etc., it may be caused by depression. Because when they feel that their existence is worthless for a long time, people with depression will doubt the meaning of their existence, fail to gain a sense of identity for a long time, resulting in lack of self-confidence, and eventually the thought of committing suicide. In this case, it is necessary to intervene in time to avoid extreme behaviors of the patient, and consult a professional psychologist if necessary.
