In the twinkling of an eye to the end of the year, looking back on the busy year, is it a joy to grow up or a helpless thing to do?

Everything has to go on.

After Sunday night's anxiety, the new week starts as usual. I really don't want to see the boss's face anymore. I still have to be respectful every day.

What else can be changed?

Analysis:

Statistics show that among adults aged 25 or above in the workplace, depression is increasing at an annual rate of 11.3%. One out of every ten men may suffer from depression, while one in five women suffers from depression.

Depression is attacking you.

No matter how heavy the pressure is on the job and how hard it is for the boss and subordinates to do it, I can always give others an impression of happiness and optimism.

But in the dead of night, pain, pessimism, complex thinking, inferiority, negativity, energy, physical strength, mental decline and stubborn insomnia can not be ruled out. I know I am not right, but no matter whether I take a vacation, drink, exercise...

This kind of unpleasant feeling always lingers around me, listening to the breathing evenly in the pillow's sleep. As a man, I will be in tears somehow.

This is a foreign employee who is undergoing depression treatment, telling doctors about their history of depression.

In the workplace, depressed patients increase by 11.3% annually.

In fact, people like him who face depression are not only a minority.

Data show that in adults over 25 years of age, patients with depression are increasing at an annual rate of 11.3%. One out of every ten men may suffer from depression, while one in five women suffers from depression.

According to Liu Hongwei, a medical doctor of Peking University Health Science Center, the high incidence of depression is around 27~33 years old, with many people living in 70s.

The reason for this is that the middle-aged people have entered the slow recession period from the vigorous stage to the physiological stage. Under the impact of "internal and external troubles", the psychology and physiology began to deviate.

"Everyone has a lot of pressure at work. Why is this group of people suffering from depression? Who is more likely to suffer from this gray disease?" the experts at the Institute of psychology at Beijing Normal University said there was no significant difference in the formal medical research on depression. Some people were happy and successful, and they did not smoke or drink, but they still suffered from depression.

From the perspective of occupational characteristics, people who engage in highly stressful work and psychological stress and mental workers are prone to neurosis.

People with depression usually present psychological characteristics such as rich, delicate, sensitive, suspicious, lack of security, strong personal desire, high thinking ability, strong introspection, strong sense of morality and strong discipline.

Their way of thinking is mostly closed, opinionated, too focused on order, and likes to make "the only" or "best" choices or judgments.

They are typical perfectionists, and their requirements are comprehensive.

There is a huge gap between strong desire and practical ability.

People often use these words such as "care for the eyes," "lose heart," "good face," and "take things too hard" to describe these people.

In terms of industry, people who are usually creative, such as hi-tech practitioners, advertisers, actors and journalists, are more likely to suffer from depression.

In addition, with the increasing social competition, the pressure of university graduates and foreign white-collar workers is also high. The proportion of depression is also increasing.

As a result, workplace white-collar workers should be careful when they deal with huge work pressure.

Initial symptoms are often misunderstood.

A IBM employee bravely came out and said he was a depressive patient. When he was eating at a company or taking an elevator, he was often pulled aside by his colleagues and asked, "look at my symptoms...

Is this depression? "It can be seen that many people still have fear and uneasiness about depression.

Therefore, when you find yourself sleepless, poor appetite, chest tightness, fatigue, and lose interest in many things, you should calm down and think, these may be symptoms of early symptoms of depression.

Miss long whale, a career psychologist at Tianli Asia Pacific consulting company, said that many domestic and foreign enterprises in her psychological consultant were found to be suffering from depression until she had mild autism, severe mental illness or even suicidal tendencies.

Many people who do not know much about depression think that patients with depression are only "thinking too much". In the workplace, they are more likely to cause negative evaluations of their colleagues or bosses "shirking their responsibilities, not making progress", "selfish and weak will", and even discriminate against them as "neurotic" "problem workers". These misunderstandings make people who are on the brink of depression or depressed patients suffer more mental stress and pain, making them feel shy to seek medical advice or just go private to find a psychiatrist.

Liu Hongwei, a medical doctor at Peking University, pointed out that depression itself is a disease, which is just as common as a cold and fever. However, some patients, after being diagnosed with depression, think that they are only mentally ill, preferring to conduct psychological counseling rather than taking medication, and are afraid of dependence on drugs.

As a matter of fact, some "psychological doctors" of some advisory bodies have neither psychological knowledge nor medical knowledge, and believe in them. They may delay their condition and are extremely disadvantageous to treatment.

Take off coloured glasses

A deputy chief of a foreign consulting firm hesitated for 6 hours when signing the notice of depression. It is evident that those who are in the workplace on weekdays are unable to think clearly when they are in deep depression.

So what kind of attitude do you need to face this threatening gray storm? Patients with depression often look at the world and their own with colored glasses.

In order to change this wrong view, Gary of Losangeles mental health center.

Emer put forward the "three a law", that is, to understand, answer and act.

Because the English letters of the three words begin with A, they are called the "three a method".

Understand: first, admit that you are mentally depressed; secondly, pay attention to your emotional changes, your actions and your actions, your feelings and your physical reactions.

Answer: learn to recognize and record every time a mistake occurs.

First write down your own mistaken ideas, and then write a more practical choice answer. The purpose is to test your ideas in practice.

Communication therapy: research shows that people who are good at communicating with others are much happier in their mental state than those who like to be alone.

A mental health research unit in the United States recently launched a campaign called "friends are good medicine". They believe that social support can even make people easier to get rid of depression.

Do you want to ask your colleagues or supervisor for help?

If you are suffering from depression, should you be honest with your colleagues or supervisors? Most doctors believe that you should not act rashly, depending on whether the company culture is tolerant and willing to understand depression patients.

The IBM employees mentioned above are themselves depressed patients and are still taking medicine.

His boss did not doubt his ability to work. He encouraged him even when he was frustrated, and even asked other employees to remind him to take medicine every day.

He was very grateful to his boss for working harder at work.

The answers of most of the patients are negative.

A depression patient said that many executives do not understand depression, and at the same time, they have the advantage of power, which often puts more pressure on their patients.

Hu Yizhong, a friend of depression, believes that the key lies in the supervisor rather than the company. A large company may accept the existence of a depression patient, but in the face of the Department's performance pressure, the attitude of the supervisor will be the decisive influence.

A middle-level manager in the securities industry had a very good working ability, but after suffering from depression, he could not cope with the pressing business of the past.

After he communicated with his supervisor, he adjusted his duties to the personnel department, and managed work attendance and other less stressed jobs. When he received treatment, he returned to his original department.

In short, it depends on the atmosphere of the organization to decide whether to inform workplace colleagues.

Experts believe that if severe depressive patients had better temporarily leave the source of stress, life is more important than making money.
