What are the consequences of having depression if it is not treated?

It will not seriously affect the patient's life, as well as the life of family members. Depression has a chemical manifestation is that the neurotransmitters in the human brain (such as serotonin, norepinephrine) are unbalanced, 5-hydroxytryptamine, norepinephrine and other neurotransmitters are used to transmit pleasant emotions and produce excitement, depression patients have not been ** for a long time, the situation of "loss" of pleasure and excitement will gradually become serious, and interest in things will gradually be lost, such as food, hobbies, etc., and the tolerance for various changes in life is also declining, becoming "glass heart". During this process, the patient's stress and depression gradually accumulate until he or she becomes misanthropic.

The harm of depression is relatively large, and the main harms are as follows: 1. The harm to life safety, the suicide rate and self-harm rate of depressed patients are very high, and it is even the most harmful disease to human health in the world, and it is the disease that causes the most serious disability and disease burden. At present, the probability of suicide of depressed patients is as high as about 1 7, that is, about 1 7 people will eventually die by suicide, which is the biggest harm of depression.

2. For the impairment of cognitive function, the main manifestations are memory decline and concentration decline, so it will cause a decrease in work ability and damage to IQ and intelligence level. 3. For the harm to the body, it will be accompanied by a lot of physical symptoms, such as palpitation, hand tremor, and even physical discomfort, discomfort, and decreased immunity, so it will be accompanied by many physical symptoms and even cause physical diseases, which is the harm of depression. The main methods of drugs are antidepressants, commonly used are sertraline hydrochloride tablets, fluoxetine, paroxetine, escitalopram, etc.

The main methods of psychology include cognition, Morita, humanism, etc., these methods are mainly through the establishment of a good long-term and stable relationship with the psychologist, learn to accept yourself, change the bad cognition, and finally grow up. You can also make the necessary adjustments by yourself, such as appropriate exercise, such as running, etc. Only by using the above methods can we finally overcome the problem of depression.

If you have depression but don't go, or if your family members have depression and don't take them there, it will be troublesome after a long time, and it may slowly become mentally disordered, that is, it may become mentally ill at that time, and it will be more difficult to control him.

If there is a very severe depression, then it is better to ** as soon as possible, otherwise, it may trigger very serious consequences. Severe depression, for example, may cause suicidal tendencies.

If depression is clearly diagnosed, mild ones may heal themselves, but if they are moderate to severe, and the symptoms persist and have not been relieved, it is more dangerous, and there may be some self-harm, self-harm tendencies or behaviors, which are the most serious consequences of depression.

Therefore, if you have depression, you should be able to receive a diagnostic evaluation by a psychiatrist as soon as possible to see the severity of the disease. If it is mild, you can choose psychological**, moderate to severe may require some medication to help adjust, because if depression persists, the consequences are quite serious, and the most serious consequences can be life-threatening.

If there is depression in time**, with the development of the disease, other mental illnesses will be induced, and people will affect family life because of the aggravation of mental illness, and will also induce suicidal tendencies.

4. Sleep disorders. Sleep disturbances are one of the hazards of depression. Depression is often accompanied by sleep disturbances, when mood is low and the risk of suicide is greatest.

5. Negative thinking. Negative thoughts account for a large part of the harm of depression, and depressed emotions make patients have negative thoughts, and negative emotions such as low self-esteem and misanthropy arise slowly. In severe cases, suicidal thoughts may also occur.

Go to a regular hospital, see a psychiatric department, consult a psychologist, so as to conduct scientific examination, testing, **, and conditioning.

Depression should be timely**, and it may not be selected as a serious consequence, hurting others or hurting yourself.

Depression is the absence of words all day long, unwilling to contact with people, for a long time, will cause serious consequences and even abnormal death. So be sure to be early**.

The consequences will indeed become more and more serious, from a psychological point of view, depression is a stubborn type of mental illness, if it is not professionally ** or alleviated, then it is easy to lead to more and more serious conditions, and in the end even affect the patient's life, many patients who end their lives early due to depression are caused by not being well groomed or ** in the early stage, so for depression, we must pay attention to itThe most important thing is that depressed patients are generally not easy to be detected in the early stage, and we can only see a little difference through subtle observation and reasonable communication, for example, a person suddenly becomes dislike to talk, or dare not make eye contact with others, appears extremely lacking in confidence, often says frustrating words, etc., these reasons are all symptoms of depression in the early stage. If you continue to have this symptom for a long time, it is recommended that you see a psychologist immediately. In addition, if you want to prevent depression in your life, you also need to pay attention to the following points:

1. Learn to relieve stress on your own

As the pace of life becomes faster and faster, the pressure we have at work will also follow, when these pressures accumulate to a certain extent, we may lead to mild depression, then we must learn to relieve the pressure by ourselves, for example, when you feel stressed, you can take time to go to some quiet corners to relieve your mood.

2. Communicate with others

In life, if we are under some pressure, try not to think about it alone, we should learn to communicate with others, so that we can greatly help us reduce stress, so as to prevent depression, in fact, we do not need to be afraid of burdening others, because these things you say are impossible to make others feel mentally burdened.

3. Regular travel

Regular travel is one of the best ways to relieve stress, we recommend everyone to travel at least 1 2 times a year, in general, the cost of travel is not very high now, so we should really arrange a reasonable travel time for ourselves, even if you are busy, you should have the opportunity to release yourself.

For patients with depression, in fact, only a very small number of people can recover themselves, most people's conditions are getting worse and worse, only a very small number of people can recover themselves, and the vast majority or even 99% of patients are actually unable to achieve self-healing, or they cannot survive until depression is self-healing. Therefore, for patients with depression, it is important to accept ** reasonably, especially for patients with severe depression, as early as possible to avoid further deterioration of the condition.

So, what are the possible consequences for people with depression if they don't do it?

First, emotions are becoming more and more negative. For patients with more severe symptoms of depression, their mood will also change over time, at the beginning it may be manifested in a short period of time as a decrease in the ability to experience various emotions, not interested in anything, and later will gradually develop a sense of misanthropy, and even suicidal thoughts.

The second point is that the thinking is becoming more and more sluggish, and the ability to act is getting worse and worse. In fact, from the current situation, patients with severe depression gradually show a kind of slow speech speed, low speech, small volume, slow response thinking characteristics, often every word and deed of the patient needs to overcome major resistance. It is important to note that at its worst, patients with depression may even be in a state of stupor.

Third, for patients with agitated depression, their speech and actions are significantly increased, and they appear to be very anxious and dangerous.

Fourth, patients with more severe depression will have a significant reduction in their gestures and movements, and their movements will become more and more slow. In addition, a small number of people with depression may be silent and bedridden. Of course, this is also known as a depressive stupor.

Fourth, people with severe depression may have a variety of physical problems. Studies have shown that patients with major depressive disorder tend to have a haggard and old appearance, sluggish gaze, poor stomach appetite, decreased physical fitness, decreased sweat and saliva secretion, and constipation.

Therefore, if the depressed patient does not get the effective **, it may become more severe, and it is recommended to accept it as soon as possible**.

If I suffer from depression, can I get better on my own if I don't go to the hospital**? There are two main cases.

If you suffer from depression and don't go, it will eventually get worse and worse. Depression is a stubborn type of mental illness that can easily lead to getting worse if left professionally or relieving.

Depression, if left untimely, can have serious consequences. 1. Depression is not severe enough to a certain extent, and it will also induce patients to have suicidal or homicidal thoughts. 2. If depression is found to be not **, prolonging the condition may form protracted depression, which often increases the difficulty and the effect is not ideal.

In fact, depression is very curable, only I have no opportunity to talk to everyone.

When you are sick, everyone wants to ** This disease cannot be cured with a little money.

It is likely to get worse, so it is best to see a psychiatrist, and if you want to help yourself, you can read books and meditate. You choose depression, you can also choose to come out, only you are willing to work hard!

Classification of depression degree. Mild can be adjusted by yourself, etc. Moderate to severe cases are best served in the hospital.
