“2022 National Depression Blue Book” data shows that the number of depression patients in China exceeds 90 million, of which 30% are young people under 18 years old (50% of whom are students). It is worth noting that the number of people who commit suicide due to depression each year has exceeded 100,000.
In the midst of sorrow, we cannot help but ponder, is there any trace behind the occurrence of these psychological problems? Can we timely discover and intervene at an early stage before these young people enter the “falling” trap?
