In response to this, Xu Yuanhong, a psychotherapist at the Department of Psychiatry, Shanghai Tenth People's Hospital, responded, saying that they suffered from "phantom Yang syndrome."
This is because they are experiencing symptoms of psychological discomfort in the face of the rapid development of the epidemic in a short period of time. This is their anxiety about the unknown.
Experts also made some suggestions on this:
1. Pay attention to scientific and official information from authoritative platforms, but don’t stare at it all the time, because if you read too much of this information and you don’t know how to filter and identify it, it will cause panic in your heart.
2. Take personal protection and scientific prevention, and don’t follow the trend of excessive hoarding of medicines, because in the process, it will increase your anxiety.
3. When it’s time to go to work and study, maintaining a normal pace of life, eating and drinking well, and ensuring that the body gets adequate rest will go a long way in alleviating anxiety.
Experts also said that in the past three years of the epidemic, everyone has experienced a lot of uncertainty. It is normal to be worried and anxious in the face of unknown uncertainties. But we should not always be afraid. We should adjust our mentality, maintain a moderate emotional response, and use positive and reasonable methods to deal with this anxiety. In a word: don't always worry too much, but don't take it lightly either.
