As the pace of life continues to accelerate, the pressure is increasing for many young people. Being under high pressure for a long time can easily lead to emotions not being released, often resulting in depression.
In recent years, the number of people suffering from depression has been increasing. Although this topic may be intimidating for many, we still have to face it.
Whether it is postpartum depression or depression caused by excessive stress, we should face it correctly so that your life can be happier.
So how can you tell if you have mild depression? In fact, those who are tormented by depression tend to say these few sentences. Mild depression patients often have 7 “mantras,” even if one should be taken seriously.
People with mild depression may often have these 7 phrases on their lips; may you never say one of them.
“So annoying”:
For those with mild depression, their ability to cope with stress is relatively low. They tend to become extremely irritable even over minor annoyances.
Moreover, they may frequently express being “annoyed to death,” which, if continued, will only lead to an emotional breakdown.
These individuals may gradually lose confidence in life, leading to emotional desolation and exacerbating the issue of depression. I hope you can deal with it correctly.
“No appetite, don’t want to eat”:
People with mild depression generally have very low appetite, lack interest in eating, and may even feel no appetite.
Over time, their bodies will slowly lose weight, and they may develop an aversion to food and beverages. Some individuals with mild depression, however, may develop a voracious appetite, channeling their sorrow into motivation. Such cases also need to be handled correctly.
“Why do I feel so tired”:
Depression patients often feel extremely exhausted, and this exhaustion is not just physical but also psychological, leading to mental fatigue.
Sometimes they may feel incapable of doing anything and just want to hide in their own world, which can potentially lead to negative thoughts.
“It’s all my fault”:
People with mild to severe depression tend to shoulder the blame for mistakes, believing that they haven’t done well enough, isolating themselves and often feeling extremely self-conscious.
If they remain in this emotional state, they will become increasingly lacking in confidence, burdened psychologically, and worsen the situation of depression.
“I’m useless”:
For those with mild depression, they often find themselves in a self-denial state. Even when they have done something exceptionally well, they have a tendency to belittle themselves.
They may even think they are worthless and frequently say, “I’m useless.” If this phrase is constantly on their lips, it indicates that they fail to see any shining points within themselves.
This not only decreases their self-confidence but also leads to a depressive state, affecting their outlook on life, and can even impact their mental health.
“Living well is meaningless”:
For people with mild depression, they usually only see the negative side. Despite enduring prolonged stress, they often fail to understand how to release it, even losing faith in life.
Such individuals may become very irritable, sometimes depressed, sometimes secretly weeping. They may even have suicidal thoughts and frequently mention how life is meaningless.
“If I die, you’ll all be better off”:
For those with mild depression, they tend to believe they are in a prolonged state of oppression, feeling utterly useless, believing they are a burden to others regardless of their actions.
They may think that by leaving, the world will be better off, and their families will be happier. If such thoughts arise, it is advised to promptly take them to see a psychologist.
Only by properly handling the situation under the psychologist’s guidance can undesirable circumstances be prevented.
If there are people around you who frequently say the above phrases, please take them to see a psychologist promptly, encourage and embrace them more often, and take them to places with more people to show them the beauty of life.
Spend more time with them outdoors when appropriate, explore the beauty of the outside world, inspire hope in their lives, dispel negative thoughts, and help them become filled with confidence and hope towards life.
