What causes anxiety disorder? The fast-paced life and society make people more and more stressed, and the frequency of psychological problems is getting higher and higher. It is even more difficult to see the information of selling anxiety everywhere. Let's share what causes anxiety.
What causes anxiety disorder? 1 1. What are the manifestations of anxiety disorder?
Studies by the World Health Organization and others show that three out of every 100 people suffer from depression, and there are many cases in which depression leads to physical illness or even self-destruction.
Depression is different from temporary depression. Without effective treatment, symptoms can last for weeks, months or even years. Symptoms include:
(1) Feel sad and empty.
(2) Lack of interest or interest in various activities.
(3) Feeling worthless or guilty.
(4) Loss of appetite and weight loss.
(5) Insomnia or lethargy.
(6) easy to fatigue.
(7) unable to concentrate.
(8) Have thoughts of death or suicide.
2. What causes anxiety disorder?
One of the four major causes of depression is genetic factors: if there are depression patients in the family, then the risk of family members suffering from this disease is higher, which may be caused by heredity. Bipolar depression is more hereditary.
Biochemical factors, the second of the four major causes of depression: Modern science has found that 93% and 2% of patients with depression have abnormal neuroendocrine function in their brains through clinical observation and detection of their brain data. On this basis, medical experts from all over the world finally determined the pathogenesis of depression through a large number of clinical studies.
The third of the four major causes of depression is personality factor: people with the following personality characteristics are prone to depression: pessimism, poor self-confidence, poor grasp of life events and excessive anxiety. These personality characteristics will aggravate the stimulation of psychological stress events, and these personality characteristics mostly develop in children and adolescents, and the mental trauma in this period has a great influence.
The four major causes of depression are environmental factors and stress: the departure of relatives, interpersonal tension, economic difficulties, or great changes in lifestyle, which will all promote the occurrence of depression. Sometimes the occurrence of depression is related to physical diseases, such as stroke, heart attack, hormone disorder, etc., which often leads to depression and aggravates the original disease. In addition, 1/3 of patients with depression have substance abuse problems.
3. The effect of music therapy on anxiety disorder.
1, improve depression.
Most patients with depression are depressed, listless, easily sad, lose the ability to be happy, and are depressed all day. Music therapy for depression can help patients relax, arouse good memories and make patients participate in social activities with a clearer mood.
2, restore the ability to live
People with depression usually have low will activity, it is difficult to concentrate on their work, and some even have no ability to get up and wash. Music therapy for depression can help patients regain their interest in external things and restore normal behavior, so that patients can concentrate on their work and study for a longer time.
3. Improve your sleep.
Treating depression through music therapy can make patients fall into deep sleep more quickly, and can effectively alleviate the frequency of insomnia, dreaminess and early awakening, thus greatly improving the sleep status of patients with depression.
4. Worried about how the patients' families should help them.
1, don't try to ask people with depression to "cheer up". There is a simple reason. His depression is completely involuntary. It is impossible for him to cheer up blindly. It will only increase his depression and despair.
2. Don't tell him that his pain is just his "fantasy". Because for him, this kind of pain is actually real, which always makes him feel terrible that life is worse than death;
3. Don't blame the criticism. You know, most people with depression are very sensitive. If a relative doesn't "listen" enough, it may stir up waves in his heart and even push him into a more desperate black hole.
Don't let him know that he is responsible for his illness. Because this will only increase his ideological burden and even guilt, which is not conducive to the recovery of the disease;
Don't force him to do what he doesn't want to do. But whenever he does well, he must be encouraged and affirmed in time;
6. Don't trust his promise easily. Many family members just believed the patient's promise of "I will never commit suicide" and relaxed their guardianship, which led to the tragedy. This is because people with depression can't control their emotions and behaviors at all, and their families can't take it lightly.
5. Who is more prone to anxiety?
1 student
Nowadays, the society attaches great importance to education, and the "achievement-only theory" of many parents has caused heavy psychological pressure on students. "Taking college students as an example, the most concentrated period of psychological problems is the beginning of enrollment." Lin Yongqiang, chief physician of the Department of Psychiatry, Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, said that once a father sent his child to school to register, but on the way home by train, he actually received the bad news of his child's suicide. "The psychological problems of freshmen are often not caused by universities, but' historical problems' in middle schools." Lin Yongqiang said, "So, at present, we adopt a' forward-looking' method to study the root causes of students' mental illness, and understand the influence of students' growth environment and academic pressure on their psychology from birth."
2. Officials
In recent years, the problem of mental illness of officials has become increasingly prominent. This year alone, the number of official suicides seen in the media exceeded double digits. Lin Yongqiang believes that the requirements and expectations for officials are getting higher and higher, and the work pressure is much higher than that of ordinary people, which leads to frequent "official heart disease". "Under the pressure of accountability system, the anxiety and depression of officials and cadres are obviously serious, and the society should pay attention to the mental health problems of officials and cadres." Jia Fujun pointed out: "At present, Guangdong has implemented some health care measures, such as conducting psychological lectures and training in government agencies and units, and launching the Handbook on Health Care for Cadres to actively intervene in cadres' psychology." Yin Dongmei, deputy director of the Department of Disease Control and Prevention of Guangdong Provincial Health Department, said that experts and scholars in Guangdong have formed a mental illness intervention alliance to study the mental illness of specific groups such as officials.
3. stay-at-home wife
Many professional women often become "fragile" and "desperate housewives" after leaving the workplace to become full-time wives. According to the survey, full-time wives account for 20% of the consultants with psychological problems and become the backbone of the consulting army. Full-time wives in psychological difficulties have some common characteristics: First, their social circle has shrunk, and even they have become "house girls", unable to perceive their changes and growth from the evaluation of more external "fulcrums", thus gradually losing self-confidence. Second, the lack of "external stimulation" such as workplace competition and interest cultivation makes them not good at coping with adversity.
4, the elderly
With China entering an aging society, the number of elderly patients with depression is increasing. The main causes of heart disease in the elderly are inconvenient travel, various chronic diseases, fear of aging and death, and heart disease caused by physical pain. In addition, some elderly people living in nursing homes lack the care of their children, which also makes them depressed. Compared with physical diseases, the heart disease of the elderly is difficult to be found by their children in time, so it is often difficult to get timely rescue and treatment at the onset. Experts suggest that while actively treating physical diseases, we should pay attention to the mental diseases of the elderly and avoid a vicious circle. At the same time, children should spend more time with the elderly, and grandchildren and pets can play a healing role.
What is the cause of anxiety disorder? 2. Unexpected events: There are always some unexpected events in life, which may cause more anxiety, and the disorder of secretion of stress-related hormones such as thyroxine and norepinephrine will amplify the above process.
Second, people's cognition or way of thinking: it plays an extremely important role in the formation of anxiety symptoms. It is found that patients with anxiety disorder are more inclined to interpret ambiguous or even benign events as precursors of crisis, more inclined to think that bad things will happen to them, more inclined to think that failure is waiting for them, and more inclined to underestimate their ability to control negative events.
Third, biological factors: although physical diseases or biological dysfunction will not be the only cause of anxiety, in some rare cases, patients' anxiety symptoms can be caused by physical factors, such as hyperthyroidism and adrenal tumors. Many researchers try to find out whether the central nervous system, especially some neurotransmitters, is the culprit. Many studies have focused on two neurotransmitters: norepinephrine and serotonin.
It can be seen that the emergence of anxiety disorder is not unfounded. Some patients are stimulated by an unexpected event, some are due to cognitive errors, and some are due to other diseases. No matter what causes anxiety disorder, patients must be treated in time when they find themselves suffering from anxiety disorder.
What causes anxiety disorder? Everyone is anxious sometimes.
When we look at a long list of flowers in our hands, think about the salary that we can't pay in a week; When we watch the school term getting closer and closer, think about the holiday homework that we haven't touched yet; When we sit in the examination room and can't put pen to paper, think about the disappointed eyes of parents and teachers ... In fact, when we face potential and real dangers or threats, we all have different degrees of anxiety. These understandable and moderate anxieties caused by some reasons belong to normal anxiety.
However, when a person does not clearly have the factors that cause anxiety, or when the stimulus we receive is asymmetric with the response we produce, and shows a persistent anxiety response, we call this phenomenon anxiety.
Anxiety disorder is a neurosis characterized by anxiety, nervousness and fear, accompanied by autonomic nervous system symptoms and dyskinesia. The incidence of anxiety disorder accounts for 2% of ordinary residents in China. Since it refers to a group of nervous system symptoms, the occurrence of diseases is inseparable from genetic factors. Studies have shown that the incidence of panic disorder in identical twins is higher than that in fraternal twins. This tells us that pre-marital examination of genetic diseases is beneficial to the good development of future generations and reduces the occurrence of diseases.
Anxiety is everywhere in life.
In addition to genetic factors, people who are sentimental, sensitive and emotional, as well as those who are easily anxious, conservative, conservative and withdrawn, often get sick. In life and study, we should always keep an optimistic attitude, actively face the challenges in life, work and study, and avoid being in an anxious mood.
In addition to genetic and personality reasons, some social psychology will also appear as inducing reasons. In this case, we need to adjust ourselves. When this adjustment is beyond the normal adaptability, or beyond the limit we can bear, it may lead to anxiety.
