If you stay with someone with depression for a long time, will you be infected?

It is said that depression is a "cold of the mind", so if a person with depression has stayed for a long time, will he be infected with depression? This kind of worry is normal and common. But after listening to today's episode, you may be able to reduce some of those worries. If you think you have learned something, remember to give us a like! ~ The main characteristics of depression are the "three lows": 1. Low mood, unhappy, and unable to feel happiness; It seems that it may be a bit "sluggish"; 3. Low motivation, do not want to do anything, don't want to go out, don't want to socialize, don't want to study and work. You may have doubts: "I have had this state too, is it possible that I have depression but I don't know it?" Yes, these states may be experienced by almost everyone, even if you are a tough guy of steel, there are times when you are sad. But if you change your mood and relax, these situations will quickly disappear from your world and you can continue with your normal life. If so, then it just means you have some depression, which you and I have both experienced. Depression is different. Usually, if a person cannot get out of general depression, and this state lasts for at least two weeks, then he may be suffering from depression and need to seek professional medical help. Just like a cold, everyone can get depression. In this case, is it also contagious like a "cold"? In psychology, the word "contagion" comes from social contagion, Especially emotional contagion. For example, when we see others cry, we can’t help but feel sad; when we see others laugh, we also smirk... Psychological experiments show that depression is indeed contagious, especially to those who are close to and spend time with themselves. long friend. This is normal. Just ask, if you have close friends who are always depressed, often insomnia, and feel that life is dark, helpless and meaningless, how can you be happy? However, it should be noted that although depression is contagious, it is not. Let us suffer from depression! In fact, we humans have a certain ability to digest negative emotions; the cause of depression is far more complicated than a bad mood in the short term. On the other hand, the people around us will not infect us with depression, but we can use the contagious effect of emotions to infect our positive energy to the depressed patients around us, and pull them up from the dark abyss. Because love and friendship are both highly contagious. Listen to their hearts, accept their fragility, and if possible, stay by their side silently, without effort, just keep a normal heart. Tell them that just being alive is something to be proud of. The world and I love you.
