Professor Zhou Dongfeng, deputy director of Peking University Institute of Mental Health, pointed out that depression is not a bad mood in the general sense. A person is depressed and will be fine in a couple of days. This is not depression. Depression has nine main symptoms. As long as there are at least four of the following symptoms, which can't be alleviated for two weeks, and normal life is affected, it is necessary to consider whether you have depression and consult a specialist in time. ★ Loss of energy, often feeling tired for no reason; ★ unresponsive, or emotional and excited, easily angered; ★ Self-evaluation is too low, often blaming yourself or feeling guilty, which is also the main reason for patients to commit suicide; ★ It is difficult to associate or consciously think, and it is difficult to make decisions on some small things in daily life; ★ Repeated thoughts of wanting to die or suicidal and self-mutilation behaviors. ★ Sleep disorders, such as insomnia, early awakening or excessive sleep (according to research, 80% of depressed patients have sleep disorders). ★ Loss of appetite or obvious weight loss. ★ Loss of libido. In addition to the above symptoms, there are some "peripheral symptoms" of depression. In Asia, especially in China and Japan, most patients with depression are not mainly emotional symptoms, but headaches and dizziness. Physical symptoms such as physical pain. Therefore, some physical symptoms that can't find physiological reasons should also consider whether there is the possibility of depression, so as not to delay treatment. Suggestion: A variety of antidepressants, physical therapy and psychotherapy can all treat depression. For some patients, antidepressants are more effective; For other patients, physical therapy or psychotherapy is more effective; For most patients, drug therapy and physical therapy may be the most effective. Especially for patients with severe depression, physical therapy can be used to relieve depressive symptoms relatively quickly, and drugs can be implanted in physical therapy to gradually reduce the dose, thus reducing the harm caused by side effects of drugs. Depending on the severity of your symptoms, the doctor may let you take medicine. It can also allow you to receive physical therapy or psychotherapy. Most people with depression don't need hospitalization. For patients with severe depression and those who can't take antidepressants, especially when antidepressants can't effectively alleviate depressive symptoms, transcranial microcurrent stimulation therapy is often an effective treatment. After depression, antidepressants should be used first, and after taking them for a period of time, psychological treatment should be carried out in cooperation with psychologists. In the process of psychotherapy, we should insist on taking medicine. Generally speaking, the first onset of depression after diagnosis can be cured by taking medicine for more than 5 years. In recent years, the emergence of physical therapy has improved the success rate of depression. It is a high-tech imported therapeutic instrument with no side effects and no dependence. The therapeutic instrument adopts transcranial micro-current stimulation therapy to treat depression. It stimulates the brain through low-intensity micro-current, changes the abnormal brain waves of patients' brains, and urges the brain to secrete a series of neurotransmitters and hormones closely related to depression, anxiety, insomnia and other diseases, thus realizing the treatment of these diseases. Life care: prevention of common sense depression is an emotional disease, manifested as a deep depression. The patient showed inferiority complex. Mental activity is slow, world-weary, and even suicidal. Suicide is the greatest harm to patients and their families. Suicide can be said to be a sign of serious illness. Early detection and early treatment can usually prevent the development of the disease and avoid tragedy. However, in real life, due to people's lack of understanding of depression and other diseases, people think that patients' inferiority, sighing, lack of vitality and depression in life are all ideological problems, and they simply don't consider treatment. What's more, they even made accusations. Therefore, the key to this disease is to recognize depression and treat it in time. At present, the effective antidepressants are Prozac, Maprotiline, Clomipramine, etc., which have definite effect and ideal curative effect. At present, most of the effective antidepressants have side effects such as dry mouth and gastrointestinal reaction, and their effects are slow. Depression patients themselves have many complaints of physical discomfort, so they may feel worse at the beginning of taking the medicine.
