3. Seek professional help: consult psychological professionals, such as psychological counselors or clinical psychologists, who can help assess individual psychological status through interviews and evaluation tools.

4. Refer to social feedback: communicate with relatives, friends and colleagues. And ask them their observations and opinions on their psychological situation. They may be able to provide some valuable feedback.
