What is Depression?

Most depression is not drug-induced or brain organic, but psychogenic depression, exogenous depression. The cause of these depressions is psychological. On the surface, various events and circumstances cause depression, which can lead to neurosis over time. Essentially, it is not the body that is sick. The body is just a mirror that shows our sick heart (worries are greater than happy hearts, depression is greater than optimism, pain is greater than joy). At a deeper level, it can be roughly summarized into the following reasons:

The cognition of environmental things leads to a disharmony of needs and motivations;
A vicious circle of adaptation to the environment and interaction with bad life situations has emerged;

Confusion about the life value system and individual existence;
The purpose and means are confused.

If depression is caused by psychological reasons, instead of using modern scientific psychological counseling and treatment methods to solve the psychological problems, they tend to use traditional treatment methods (using drugs alone). Some people will get relief from their physical symptoms in a short period of time, and at the same time get psychological comfort, so that depression can get some relief.

But if bad stimuli in life exist or experience bad stimuli again, depression will often recur again. In addition, not only will the body itself develop resistance, the regulatory effect of the drug will also be reduced on the basis of the decline in the psychological trust in the drug. In response to this situation, psychiatrists often prescribe an increased dose. At this time, the doctor made such a judgment based on the traditional medical experience of several years-this depressed person needs to take medicine for a long time, and may not be able to live without medicine for his whole life.

As a psychological counselor, solving depression can’t just focus on symptoms, external symptoms are only external reflections of psychological problems. If you only focus on the symptoms (such as drug treatment), it may alleviate the symptoms to a certain extent, but it is difficult to cure and easy to relapse. Sometimes it seems to be cured, but in fact it is not cured, or it is only suppressed by drugs. In many cases, after a long period of time, there will be delays or transformations, such as depression leading to compulsion. The body is a tangible soul, and the soul is an invisible body. The body is the projection of the mind, and it is useless to change the mirror for the “ugly” person.

To cure depression, we need to find the cause of depression from the psychological level, and then make targeted adjustments. After the root cause is solved, the external symptoms will naturally be eliminated. Under the guidance of my own thoughts and experiences for several years-the law of survival and development of natural enjoyment, I organically combine the three major psychological counseling and treatment theories of cognition, psychoanalysis and behavior, and make psychological counseling and treatment programs tailored to each person. Generally, it takes one to three months to resolve physical symptoms, improve emotional responses, and form a self-adjustment concept and plan that is positive and can respond cheerfully to bad stimuli in life. When the individual is subjected to adverse stimuli in the later days, the depression can be resolved on its own and no longer form depression.

Depression Symptoms

Depression is not neurotic, but as long as normal people continue to experience bad stimuli (whether it is an event or environment), neurosis may occur, but it is manifested by different stimuli, different cognitive angles, and different response patterns. The symptoms are different. For example, some people suffer from depression, some people suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder, some people are suspected of illness, some people are afraid of society. As long as they are normal people, they can cope with the different emotions generated by life events and the environment, such as depression, anxiety, tension, horror, etc. We cannot eliminate normal adverse emotional reactions, but we can completely avoid long-term negative emotions. Depression and other neurosis.

Depression Treatments

If it is not particularly serious, you can use online video or phone to maintain the original state of life, usually through once a week, one or two consultations at a time; for more serious ones, you can adjust face-to-face for about 6-15 days before going back. You can live and work normally, and follow-up consolidation can be consolidated several times once a week or once a week through telephone or Internet voice, so that clients can form a new life concept and learn to deal with the troubles they face in life independently and prevent recurrence. The specific consultation plan is drawn up after contact with the help seeker.

I can’t guarantee that I will be able to solve the problem for all those who seek help. Based on my 12 years of psychological counseling experience and skills and nearly a thousand successful cases that I have done so far, the remarkable effect rate of about 90% gives me confidence. It can be said that only the requester has complete trust in the psychological counseling, and the psychological counselor With the cooperation in place, I believe that most psychological problems can be solved. Depression is not an incurable disease. There are about two reasons why it is not good. First, I have not found a suitable solution. 2. Have not met a psychological counselor who matches you to help you find a suitable solution. No matter when you arrive, don’t give up your pursuit of a better life, and keep working hard to experience it. You will gain something.

I hope that those seeking help will have a happy and good mentality, live more splendid lives with vigorous energy, and live dignified and happy lives!
