Sentimental man

Nowadays, men are under great pressure in life and work. In this case, many men cannot get a very good space to relax their emotions. Over time, this will cause men to become very sentimental, but many people do not care so much. In fact, if sentimentality often occurs, it will greatly affect one's brain and cause one's memory ability to decline.

It usually manifests as difficulty thinking and a significant decrease in the efficiency of mental work. After suffering from depression, scientific and technological personnel or white-collar workers who are usually quick-thinking find it difficult to do their daily work, let alone be creative. Students who are usually good at learning will have a significant decline in their grades. Many patients say when talking about their subjective experience: the whole head is like a bucket of paste.

Affects the brain

It causes dizziness, memory loss and sleep disorders. Research data shows that the proportion of these three symptoms in patients with depression is as high as 97%, 93% and 99% respectively. The cause is that the concentration of a substance called catecholamine in the brain increases, causing the cerebral blood vessels to contract and become narrow, resulting in ischemia and hypoxia of brain tissue, and then symptoms such as dizziness appear.

Sleep disorders

Depressed patients often have persistent sleep disorders, with an incidence rate of up to 98%, manifested in the form of insomnia, difficulty falling asleep, early awakening, sleep rhythm disorders, poor sleep quality, etc. Depressed patients wake up early, especially between 3 and 5 in the morning, when they are in a low mood and are at the greatest risk of suicide.

Induce physical illness

Once a person is associated with depression, his risk of heart disease increases by 2 times and the probability of stroke increases by 3 times. This is because depression can cause changes in the body's autonomic nervous system. Mainly loss of appetite, weight loss, loss of libido, constipation, impotence, amenorrhea, fatigue, etc. Physical discomfort can involve various organs, and symptoms of autonomic nervous system dysfunction are more common.

A 40-year study found that the mortality rate caused by functional disorders caused by depression is as high as that of cancer, diabetes and heart disease.

Damage to social functions

After suffering from depression, it is usually manifested as difficulty thinking, sleep disorders, decreased appetite, and a significant decrease in the efficiency of mental work. It is difficult to do daily work, let alone creative work. It also reduces the body's immune function, delays the recovery time of chronic diseases, slows down physiological activities, reduces social work and physiological abilities, and reduces sexual function.

The quality of family life is affected. Due to relapses, repeated visits to the doctor, self-harm, suicide, and relapses of depression are much slower to control. The withdrawal reaction of suddenly stopping antidepressants is physical discomfort, which may also lead to a large number of laboratory tests to clarify the cause, resulting in increased medical expenses, waste of medical resources, affected professional ability and physical activities, and poor social adaptation. The number of negative family events increases.

Increased risk of suicide

Among patients with recurrent depression, 1 in 7 will commit suicide, and 70% of suicide cases are caused by depression. Studies have shown that among those who commit suicide, 50% to 70% die from depression, and 15% of depressed patients eventually commit suicide. This is why people call depression the number one psychological killer of humans, because no other mental illness or mental illness has such a high suicide rate.
