Introduction: As winter arrives and the weather turns cold, while our bodies face the test of the cold, is our soul also under attack? Is it also growing colder, bit by bit, just like the weather? Cold weather makes us prone to catching a cold, but can our souls catch a cold too?
Come and find out if your mind has caught a cold:
1. Always feeling down and dejected;
2. Feeling that life is meaningless and uninteresting;
3. Feeling that your thinking and reactions are always a step slower than usual;
4. Often blaming and feeling guilty about yourself when things go wrong, thinking you've messed up;
5. Easily tired and reluctant to be active;
6. Having inexplicable worries in your heart;
7. Decreased work efficiency and an easily distracted attention;
8. Being particularly easily startled and sentimental, with fragile emotions;
9. Complaining of aches and pains all over the body, but with no identifiable cause;
10. Loss of appetite or relying on binge eating to cope with emotional distress;
11. Encountering attractive members of the opposite sex but feeling no attraction at all;
12. No longer paying attention to your personal appearance, looking unkempt.
If you are experiencing the above problems in your life, you must be on alert, as it might be psychological depression at play.
The manifestations of psychological depression are also different from other neurotic psychological disorders. Friends with general psychological depression may sometimes overlook their own problems due to the commonality of their symptoms. This makes it necessary to have a good discussion on how to determine the existence of a "mental cold."
