The number of adolescents suffering from depression has increased significantly, why do children get

I am a front-line doctor, and I am deeply touched by what you said, and I remember that for a period of time in the second half of last year, I was deeply impressed by the treatment of several young patients with adolescent depression who were still in middle school. If we talk about why children are depressed, and what is the most reliable education for teenagers, I think it is still necessary to find the reason from the children's original family.

The reasons for the high incidence of adolescent depression must be multifaceted, just as I said that the hair of depression is the result of a combination of genetic factors, biological factors, and social psychological factors. But among some of the adolescent depression patients I have had, there is an amazing commonality, the unhappiness of the family, most of them are single-parent families, and one of the parents raises the child alone, and a small number of them are parents who have long-term discord, and the main tone of the family is endless quarrels. Therefore, the original families of the little patients are all problematic, and the emotional problems of the parents have left an indelible mark on the childhood life of the little patients to varying degrees, causing an impact that cannot be underestimated.

Before this, I may still lack some correct understanding of single-parent families, thinking that as long as I am good to my children, fathers, and mothers, I can give my children the love they need. Now I know that I was wrong, we think that it is okay for children to be well fed and clothed, someone cares, and someone hurts, but the children's requirements are only from the different love of their fathers and mothers, and it is just a warm home, a home that can protect themselves, and it can't be regarded as too high.

And in contact with their parents, I also know how difficult it is for a person to take care of their children, knowing that even if they have enough money, it is impossible to provide everything that their children need, and knowing that while taking care of their children, these single parents are also under huge life pressure and mental pressure alone, so sometimes they will inadvertently let their negative emotions affect their children, but it is precisely this inadvertent influence that makes it easier to make children sensitive and inferior.

Of course, regardless of single-parent families and the misfortunes that may have been experienced in childhood, children are also under tremendous academic pressure, and we have to admit that today's children are much more tired than we were back then. In fact, this is also a clear manifestation of China's economic transformation and development stage, and the pressure of the whole society is growing. Therefore, the childhood experienced by this generation of children is, to a certain extent, really lacking the simple happiness that we had when we were children.

You mentioned education, and I would like to talk about education, our education actually ignores the mental health problems of teenagers, for example, how to adjust the mentality, release stress, talk about emotions and so on, which are missing in our education system.

Therefore, if we want to change this situation, we may need to work hard in many directions, including our original family, but also our education, for the sake of children, any change is worth it.

Because the pressure on children is also very great now, in addition to studying every day, there will be various tutoring classes and interest classes, so it will cause great pressure on children.

Because today's children are under great pressure, especially the pressure of learning, and the children's comparison psychology is also very serious, and they will slowly suffer from a kind of depression.

I have to say that the pressure on children nowadays is too great, and parents are busy with work and rarely communicate together, which also leads to a serious lack of love in the child's psychology and slowly suffers from depression.

The proportion of children and adolescents with psychological problems and depression is particularly high, many parents say that this is habitual, they have been beaten and scolded since childhood, they are all suffering, and now children can't scold, they are anxious and depressed at every turn.

Studies have found that the prevalence of depression in children and adolescents accounts for 5% to 80% in adolescence, and by the age of 13, the incidence of depressive symptoms in primary school students in grades 4 to 6 is about 40%, and the incidence of depressive symptoms in middle school students is about 40%. Actually, there is a reason for this.

First, most of the emotional communication in life has been lost. Why are today's children so vulnerable? Because of the influence of society and the spread of smart devices, there are already video games for children to entertain in the post-00s, resulting in many children never knowing how to take care of others and take care of themselves socially, which is immature in emotional intelligence.

In addition, as a parent, there is a lack of listening and understanding, and they always avoid and ignore. For example, my child suddenly asks me a question, "Mom, why did I die?" And erect this is the question my son asked me when he was five years old, and it scared the hell out of me, what did this make me?

But I know that we can't help but deal with the past, because the child knows the world by asking questions, if you always avoid it, slowly he will not communicate with you, and his problems will not be relieved in his heart. By adolescence, they will be even more confused.

Second, as soon as the emotions are out of control, they will vent to the child, and use the child as an emotional trash can. Now adults have been under the pressure of work for a long time, and once they get home, they may vent to their families, and even feel incredible to themselves when they go to the search shed. In particular, some parents think that their children are ignorant and take them out at will, which not only hurts the parent-child relationship of the gods, but also has a great impact on the children, and may also cause psychological problems in serious cases.

For example, you keep chattering with your children and saying that your dad is so annoying, he doesn't even wash the dishes, and he really shouldn't marry him. The child is not a psychologist of his parents, and there is no way to do anything to solve the problems in his parents' marriage. Is it useful for you to complain to him?

For example, when I say to others in front of my child, this child is a burden to me, and since he was born, I have not left anything good. As a result, the child was stunned and embarrassed, and his eyes were full of tears. Obviously, it really was the worst birthday experience for him.

Those children who are not listened to will not cry when they grow up, they can only bury their negative emotions in their hearts, and they will accumulate a lot of negative emotions and have nowhere to vent, and sooner or later they will be suppressed to the point that they want to create a little childhood shadow for their children.

<> rising prevalence of depression among adolescents is a worrying trend. We should keep an eye on this issue and take action to deal with it. Here are some perspectives:

4.Focus on prevention: Early detection and intervention in young people who may be at risk of depression may help prevent further progression.

5.Promote mental health: Encourage young people to adopt an active lifestyle, including exercise, good sleep habits, a healthy diet and finding hobbies that suit them.

In conclusion, we need to take adolescent depression to heart and take proactive steps to provide support, education and prevention to ensure the mental health and well-being of young people.

Because many teenagers lack the care of their parents, their psychological capacity is also weak. For the sake of family income, many parents of teenagers will choose to go out to work and leave their children at home, so the daily time the child is only accompanied by grandparents, such care is far from enough for children, compared to the company of grandparents, the company of parents is actually more important, but for many reasons, children can not get the company of their parents, and the psychological tolerance of children who grow up in such an environment is also weak.

01. Teenagers are generally spoiled and unable to adapt to adversity.

A long time ago, most people can be said to be very experienced in adversity, because they often experienced all kinds of adversity when they were young, and they developed a strong anti-stress psychology, but now children are different, they are all the treasures of their parents, many times they are well protected, and there are few opportunities for frustration, so that these children are often unable to face difficulties calmly, and their psychological tolerance is weak.

02. Most children are sentimental.

Children's minds are fragile, and they are very sensitive to the outside world. Many children are very sensitive to everything in the outside world, and some small things are enough to make them sentimental, which is a good thing and a not so good thing, because sentimentality may lead to depression in children.

03. Lack of psychological counseling for children.

Every child will have their own psychological problems, but at present, the psychological counseling for children is not put in the first place by schools and parents, many children have psychological problems, no one can communicate, and there is no way to vent, so that in the end the child can only fall into depression and cannot extricate himself. It can be seen that moderate psychological counseling is very necessary, especially for those teenagers who have a lot of youth troubles, psychological counseling is very crucial, which is related to the mental health of every child.

Depression is a very common mental illness, although it cannot be seen, but it exists invisibly. Because there are not a few people who die of depression, and some public figures die of depression, people can't understand why celebrities have fame and fortune and no worries about food and clothing, how can they still get depression? Why are more and more young people suffering from depression?

According to psychologists, there are three main causes.

First: Depression due to family reasons.

It is said that "children's personality and talents are ultimately influenced by their families and parents", which shows how important a family's influence is on children. Living in an unhappy family environment when you are a child will definitely leave a shadow on your child as she grows up, and she is more likely to suffer from depression than a child who grows up in a happy family. For example, in poor families, if parents do not have the right guidance, children will gradually develop low self-esteem psychologically, and this negative psychology will cause personality distortion to children.

For example, if the parents are not in harmony and often quarrel in front of the child, the child will be depressed all day long, introverted, and have autism. All in all, the child grows up in an unhappy family and cannot make the child physically and mentally healthy. Smart parents will definitely try their best to create a good living environment for their children.

Second: Depression due to work.

The most basic function of work is to earn money first, and then to realize self-worth, enrich life, and improve oneself. After adulthood, I have just entered the workplace, there are many things I don't understand, and I will encounter a lot of troubles, such as being criticized by superiors because I don't do a good job, getting along with new colleagues, facing unemployment, heavy workload, and other problems, which will affect personal psychology, resulting in low mood, negativity, easy to get excited, if you don't find an outlet, all negative emotions are piled up in your heart, and it is easy to lead to depression for a long time. It is understood that the depression of many young people now comes from work, especially men, men bear the responsibility of supporting their families on their shoulders, and men who have families are old and young, with high economic pressure and psychological burden.

Everyone has to work, it is inevitable to encounter setbacks at work, adults must not only learn to solve various problems at work, but also learn to release the pressure brought by work, to achieve a combination of work and rest, in order to reduce the trouble brought by work, reduce the probability of suffering from depression.

Thirdly, depression is caused by illness or change.

If a person who is originally very healthy, if he suddenly suffers from a difficult disease, then it is easy to cause a certain psychological shadow to the patient, if there is no psychological counseling for the patient in time, the patient's spirit will be slowly consumed, and there is no confidence in life, and the body and mind will suffer great torture, which may cause depression.

In addition, people who have suffered major changes are also prone to depression, such as suddenly losing their loved ones, or the family environment suddenly becomes embarrassed, and some major accidents occur without psychological preparation, and it is difficult to get out of the grief and close themselves, and it is easy to suffer from depression.

Depression too.

The first is that most of the depression of adolescent students is related to academic pressure, the relationship between classmates, and the excessive design of children's lives by parents. The second is that compared with this adolescent student, college students are more likely to come from love, employment or social adaptation pressure in addition to academic pressure. Many college students are not independent and mature enough, and their unexpected encounters with love expose some shortcomings, such as seeking too much approval and recognition from the outside world, and catering too much to the needs of the other party, these ways of thinking may also induce depression.

The third is that many young students are prone to depression if they suffer setbacks in this employment process. Studies have found a link between depression and certain ways of thinking in early life. For example, being ignored by parents may induce such thinking, that is, no matter what you do, you will not perform well enough, and when you encounter such an unexpected event when you grow up, you will always see a negative side to strengthen your sense of failure, helplessness and even despair.

1.Genetic factors have shown that the probability of depression in families is much higher than in the normal population, and the closer the blood relationship, the higher the incidence. The incidence of the same disease in fraternal twins is as high as that in the later stage of identical twins who have been raised separately since childhood, and the influence of genetic factors increases with age, girls are more susceptible to genetic depression than boys, and adolescents are more affected by genetic factors than children.

2.Family factorsFamily factors are one of the important factors that lead to depression in children and adolescents. Studies have shown that childhood depression is associated with the mother and not the father.

Studies on family relationships have shown a clear relationship between depression in children and adolescents and the breakdown of marital relationships between parents, and girls are more likely to suffer from depression due to parental divorce than boys.
