Depression and irritability, these three manifestations should not be ignored

Depression is very common in real life, and most people with depression will have symptoms of irritability. In fact, in addition to irritability, patients also need to pay attention to the following three major symptoms.

Depression

The main symptom is depression. At first, it may manifest as a decline in the ability to experience various emotions in a short period of time, and the patient may appear listless and have no interest in anything. The patient feels that "faults" and "unpleasant things" in front of him are flooding into his mind and cannot be reversed. Looking into the future, it is dim and bleak, the joy completely disappears, and the idea of ​​​​weariness gradually emerges. Heavy emotional depression always brings self-blame and self-guilt. The patient feels that he has lost his ability to work and has become a waste or a social parasite. Some exaggerate the general shortcomings and mistakes in the past into unforgivable sins, and repeatedly demand treatment. The patient may refuse to eat or only eat white rice due to delusions of guilt. When the mood is extremely low, he may commit suicide or self-punishment.

Slow mental association

Slow speech, low voice, small amount of words, slow response, every word and every movement requires overcoming huge resistance. In the most serious cases, it may be a state of stupor. Agitated depressive patients have significantly increased speech and movement, anxiety and fear, agitation and self-harm, and are very dangerous.

Reduced movement

Slow movements. A small number of people with severe depression may become silent and lie motionless in bed, which is called depressive stupor. Suicidal attempts and behaviors are the most dangerous symptoms.
