Recently, everyone's attention has been focused on issues such as specific drugs, virus strains, pathological conditions, release vs. elimination, who should be responsible, the residue of virus , the number of deaths, etc. It seems that we are going to fight the virus to the end and have launched a final general offensive.
Not long ago, the only objects of struggle were depression, anxiety, and some spiritual exploration. Faced with life-and-death matters, the soft area in the soul suddenly became stronger. Depression and anxiety have all turned into making people cling on, reflect and be vigilant, grab medicine and stock up on groceries, and stay at home. What seemed like the haze of the previous lockdown has completely turned into the courage and wisdom to fight the virus hand-to-hand.
still remembers the fluctuation period before the release of the epidemic, and posted a circle of friends for voluntary psychological consultation. The original intention at that time was that I saw many friends who were tortured by the epidemic or work and thought they were depressed or anxious. So I wanted to use my own strength and my limited psychological knowledge to help everyone. Although I can't completely accompany everyone to hell and climb back up together, I can at least help everyone relieve their gloomy mood during the epidemic. Based on the popularity of big Vs who sell anxiety on the Internet, I should prepare a small team to help everyone with psychological counseling. Oops, I haven't had time to find like-minded friends yet.
Thanks to so many friends who have liked it~ What makes me happy is that apart from the support, no one came to me for consultation, heart-to-heart talk or chat. I reflected on it and realized that maybe the photo wasn’t handsome enough, the certificate wasn’t valuable, or my previous personality wasn’t good enough, sincere enough, professional enough, humble enough, or didn’t speak well enough, or I wasn’t ethical enough to save a severe patient. After reflecting for an hour, I suddenly thought that maybe the so-called depression and anxiety are actually a false proposition! In my information cocoon room, I am gratified that my friends are so outstanding, and none of them need psychological intervention. I just complain and express my feelings on weekdays, and they are basically cured. It is not as scary as the depression introduced in some articles. Depression may be like the new crown , you have to bear it up and down, face it objectively and formally, and it will pass in a few days.
Then I began to suspect that those articles selling anxiety were really just for advertising fees and making shady money. Just like describing the new coronavirus, the virus itself has not thought of it. Writers have given it so many different meanings of existence. It can classify people, test the authenticity of experts, help Internet celebrities become popular, serve as a shuffling tool, and promote consumption. The most powerful thing is that it has cured many people of depression and anxiety that they did not have before. Don’t trust experts, let alone big Vs. Everyone has their own butt. Are you sitting on 50 cents? Or sit on the toilet seat given by the sponsor’s father? Can't tell. This is true for articles about COVID-19, and it is also true for articles about depression.
No matter what, in this troubled time, it is best for everyone to be healthy physically and mentally. After the cold rice is cooked, let’s continue eating.
