People who live apart for a long time may often have this experience: inexplicable depression often intrudes into your life along with weekends and other holidays, and you will feel lonely, irritable and restless. Psychologists call this phenomenon “weekend depression”.
Weekend depression is both a psychological disease and a social disease. The most important thing is that we can’t solve the psychological conflict of “what we want to do and what we should do” on weekends. The direct cause of depression is that couples live in two places for a long time.
For example, when people who go abroad, migrant workers and businessmen from other places see people around them reuniting and sharing family happiness on weekends and holidays, their anxiety will be particularly prominent, and they will often have hostile psychology. Similar phenomena also occur from time to time in some special occupations, such as seamen, geological prospecting, drilling workers, police, etc. because of the different nature of work, the rest on Sundays and holidays is irregular, and the husband and wife can’t be together from time to time. In addition, the working environment is unsatisfactory, and there is no place to vent their dissatisfaction, which finally forms psychological pressure.
What does it mean that divorced men and women should not live alone, because living alone will aggravate their sad mood. Liu Mou divorced because of her incompatibility with her husband. After her divorce, Liu Mou lived alone. Whenever she thought of her previous love with her husband and the pairing of men and women around her, she was very painful. She often cried alone. After a long time, she showed neurasthenia, lack of appetite, headache, trance and other symptoms, resulting in her inability to work normally. She was diagnosed as mental depression.
In the TV series “family wind and rain”, Ms. a Hui gave birth to Gan Shusheng’s son after losing her love. She led her child to live alone. Insomnia, headache, sadness and trance also followed, which made people think of the possibility of depression.
“Sunday depression” seriously hinders the development of people’s intelligence and physical ability, and is also the root of many diseases. To better solve it, you can refer to the following methods on weekends and holidays:
1、 Get up early, write a letter or make a phone call to a distant partner.
2、 Develop some healthy personal hobbies.
3、 Travel or participate in some social activities.
4、 Talk to friends and relatives.
5、 Do some housework within your power.
6、 See a psychologist if necessary.
With the acceleration of the pace of social life, “Sunday depression” will increase day by day. I wish more couples can reduce the harm of depression and more families can get out of the shadow of depression.
