According to the police report, Bai had frequently browsed the web pages for treating depression before his death, found a variety of drugs for treating mental illness in his office desk, and recorded his strong pessimism and worry about his family's future life. Depression may be the culprit.

Since Leslie Cheung committed suicide in 2003, we have often heard the news of star suicides, and then China artist Chen Lin and famous actor Hongshen Jia committed suicide by jumping off a building, and Korean entertainment stars committed suicide frequently.

The most important reason for these people's suicide is depression.

Why do people with depression choose to commit suicide? To know this answer, let's first understand what depression is.

What is depression?

Depression, also known as depressive disorder, is characterized by obvious and persistent depression and is the main type of mood disorder.

Clinically, it can be seen that depression is not commensurate with its situation. Emotional depression can range from moping to grief-stricken, self-abased and depressed, even pessimistic and world-weary, and there may be suicide attempts or behaviors; Even appear stiff; Some cases have obvious anxiety and restlessness; In severe cases, mental symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions may occur.

Each attack lasts at least 2 weeks, and even years for the elderly. Most cases tend to recur, most can be relieved, and some can have residual symptoms or become chronic.

A joint study by the World Health Organization, the World Bank and Harvard University shows that depression has become the second most serious disease in China.

What are the most typical manifestations of depression?

Generally, there are nine manifestations of these three noes and three lows.

?

One, three no

1. Nothing can be done

Helpless patients feel that they are always in a helpless situation. Although people around him are actively caring for and helping him, patients still feel that these help is useless.

It's like falling into the sea, or falling into a huge black hole. Not only can I not get out, but even others can't save myself. I feel helpless and feel that I am simply the most unlucky person in the universe.

2. desperate

Hopeless patients feel hopeless or even desperate for the present or the future;

I like lying in bed every day and feel everything is terrible. I graduated from a prestigious school and my job stability is very poor. Even if there are five suites in Beijing, there is no light and hope.

3. worthless

A worthless patient feels that everything he does, even his own existence, is worthless to himself, others and society.

I don't think I can do anything. I'm nothing. I don't even like wasting air when I'm alive and land when I'm dead.

Second, three lows

1. Feel depressed

I used to be interested in things, but now I'm not interested at all. This is depression. For example, I used to like slapping, but now I don't like it. I used to be a foodie, but now I want to vomit when I see crayfish.

2. The thinking ability declines,

When Cui Yongyuan recalled his depression, he interviewed two guests face to face, but he couldn't remember what the guests had just said.

People with depression seem to be cut off from their roots. They can't remember anything, can't remember, "can't even remember", and their minds are blank. ?

3. Low interest and reduced action

Low mobility is manifested as "laziness", which is extraordinary, but I don't want to do anything, even if I get up and brush my teeth.

Three, three selves

1. Regret

Self-blame is mainly manifested in patients' excessive self-blame or exaggerating their own mistakes and mistakes.

Why blame yourself? Because depressed patients are sincerely grateful to their family and friends for their kindness, but it is easy to feel ashamed and guilty when they see that they have not improved at all.

2. Self-incrimination

Self-incrimination is mainly manifested in the fact that patients think that they have made serious mistakes or mistakes without any basis, and even firmly believe that they have committed some evil, and they will be punished for being sorry to their families, units, colleagues or society.

On the basis of this cognitive bias, patients can "atone" and hurt themselves by wronged themselves or even hurting themselves.

People who have committed serious crimes, in retrospect, feel worthless and sinful, and feel that they are sinners.

commit suicide

Suicide concept and behavior are manifested in that patients feel that everything in life, even life itself, is meaningless, that death is the best destination, but at the same time they think that their families can't live without themselves, or that their departure will make their loved ones sad and uncomfortable, or that there are still things worthy of nostalgia in the world, and they can't make up their minds to die. This symptom is called suicidal ideation.

Some patients with severe depression may think that "ending their own life is a relief" or "living in the world is a redundant person", but they may have suicide plans and behaviors that go beyond the concept of suicide, and repeatedly seek suicide.

Suicide is a sign of the severity of depression.

Some patients will have "extended suicide", that is, patients will think that their living relatives are also in pain, and may commit suicide after killing their relatives, which will lead to extremely serious consequences, such as "mother-to-child suicide". In the news at the beginning of the article, Bai Moucai's behavior is "expanding suicide".

There is a risk of suicide in the whole process of major depression, so we should pay attention to prevention.

People with depression often want to die, and even have suicidal plans or attempts.

When depression is severe, suicide is very tempting, like water in the desert, attracting desperate people.

Li Lanni and Cui Yongyuan, one is a famous writer and the other is a well-known host. Both of them are mired in depression.

Tian Huiping, an old friend of Li Lanni and an autism expert, said to Li Lanni when she visited her in Shenzhen, "I support you to die! If you are too painful, you can go, I bless you! " They were sitting at that time, and Li Lanni immediately stepped forward and took Tian Huiping's hand and said, "So far, you are the only one who understands that I have suffered to the extreme. This is a blessing. " Seeing this report, my heart was tied together: Really, as Li Lanni himself said, depression is a more terrible disease than cancer!

It is reported that Cui Yongyuan once had suicidal thoughts. One night, the old father dozed off and opened his eyes. When he saw that Cui Yongyuan's bed was empty, he turned in horror and saw Cui Yongyuan on the windowsill, staring wearily at the night sky.

Cui Yongyuan's father subconsciously rushed to hug his son, while Cui Yongyuan sobbed on his father's trembling body. Dad, it's too painful to live like this. I really want to jump and get rid of it completely.

& ltZhihu > there is a patient in the world who started nervous tinnitus at the end of 20 12. It should be a disease after 50 years old. He had it in his twenties. Everyone must have had tinnitus, and it's hard to know. What is nervous tinnitus? It is tinnitus in the ear 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, until death.

He said: "When I study, when I walk, when I rest, when I eat, when I listen to others, I always have this harsh voice." If you can't understand why depression kills you, imagine the feeling of tinnitus in your ears, and you will probably understand. "

So is depression. It seems normal, in fact, you are depressed, but as long as it is not, you can't understand. It is only a matter of time before the psychological uncontrollable torture ends.

People with depression will feel particularly depressed and painful when they die in the morning, and even have thoughts and behaviors of seeking relief by death at this time; After 3 pm, the patient's mood gradually improved; At night, there seems to be nothing wrong with it; However, the next morning, I fell into a morbid and difficult time.

Besides these symptoms, you may suffer from insomnia. Everyone knows Cui Yongyuan. When he is depressed, he can't sleep at night, and he can't sleep all night.

You may also wake up early, for example, you used to sleep until dawn, but now you wake up early in the morning. You may also have pain in your arms and legs for a long time for no reason, but you can't find the reason. Otherwise, your appetite will drop.

These symptoms may not be all there, but they all suggest that you may have depression.

Why do people suffering from depression commit suicide easily?

Simply put, negative emotions are constantly being amplified, and the negative energy that dies in the heart has great attraction. The source of the disease is that "happiness" cannot be transmitted.

1, too much desire? overpressure

If there are too many things in your work and life, and other people make different demands on you in different aspects, you don't know what to do. You are stressed and depressed. Many stars look glamorous, but they are actually "freelancers" with no fixed income. If they don't sign up for filming for a long time, they will get into trouble. Coupled with the extremely cruel competition in the entertainment industry, many artists are under too much pressure and are constantly in a state of tension and stress, which is easy to induce insomnia, anxiety and depression.

2. sense of loss

Failure in any form is a common cause of depression. It may be because of the loss of loved ones, or it may be because of things like career and retirement. The loss of other reasons is related to the failure of one's hopes and the damage to one's image, such as divorce and other major events. The reasons why people with depression are prone to suicide and the long-term psychological pressure cannot be released, which leads to mental distortion and inability to think normally. Once you can't meet your ideal requirements, you will easily have negative emotions such as loss, depression and guilt.

3. Sudden changes

Too many sudden changes, and almost at the same time, make it difficult for patients to accept, and will cause pressure to patients, making them unable to let go, depressed and depressed.

4. Emotional depression.

Many artists can't have normal families and friends like ordinary people because of their work. Therefore, they lack a support system, can't find someone to talk to, and lack reasonable ways to vent their emotions after emotional problems.

All the above points will lead to suicidal tendency of patients with depression, so we should always pay attention to patients with depression in our lives, which is also very beneficial to the recovery of the disease!

Happiness is not an attitude, but an attainable ability.

Life needs awe, respect, love, dedication and participation. What matters is not the happiness of interactive feedback, but the enthusiasm of your own investment. The terrible thing about depression is not the despair of frequent suicidal thoughts, but the inability to find a way to make yourself happy.

Everyone lives in a world of self-knowledge and explanation. Correcting cognition and improving thinking habits are not only the therapeutic methods of a certain school of psychology, but also the inevitable process after everyone begins to realize life. Life is like this. To live is to practice.

Depression, like a cold, is not our fault, nor can it define who we are.

If you are ill, you need to receive treatment as soon as possible without delay.
