Prevention of "Autumn Sadness Syndrome" Needs Social Participation

2023-10-16

Since the beginning of autumn, the number of psychiatric patients at Beijing Huilongguan Hospital has significantly increased, an increase of about 20% compared to before. Chen Hongmei, Deputy Chief Physician of the Department of Psychiatry, reminds that autumn is a high incidence period for "emotional disorders" such as depression. The public should pay attention to identifying negative emotions and be vigilant against the occurrence of "tragic autumn syndrome". In the bleak autumn days, how to maintain a stable emotional state and how to cope with the frequent trend of "tragic autumn syndrome" is a question that society is facing. The "Beiqiu Syndrome" has not only shown a trend of frequent occurrence in Beijing recently, but also in many other places. For example, some hospitals in Xi'an have also seen a large number of patients. A survey shows that the highest incidence of depression is in autumn, which can reach 35% in general years. 'Sad Autumn' is no longer just a sentiment in poetry, but a common reality faced by the public. Autumn is prone to mental and psychological illnesses, primarily related to the natural environment. Autumn leaves fall, and the green and vibrant colors of spring and summer no longer exist, leaving only some rustling and withering. Because 'after the Mid Autumn Festival, it's New Year', the autumn wind is slightly cold, and the geese are heading south, making it easy for people to feel a sense of parting. And many people will face choices such as "whether to go home during the Chinese New Year", which can easily evoke nostalgia. After autumn, the decrease in light leads to changes in human hormone secretion and sleep rhythm. Moreover, autumn dryness continues, pollen brings chaos, dry climate, difficulty sleeping at night, frequent allergies, etc., all of which can easily make people feel down. From the perspective of social environment, autumn is the season to focus on performance and work progress. The practice of "taking back lost time" has become a clear or covert action by many units, with evaluations, inspections, and omissions coming one after another. Employees are under high pressure, frequently work overtime, and are prone to "catching a cold" psychologically. Towards the end of the year, people like to anticipate a year's harvest. If there is a poor harvest, some people will immediately feel regretful, while others feel that "this year is a waste of life", and the pressure can be imagined. To prevent the "tragic autumn syndrome", individuals should learn to give their mood "autumn vacation". There are too many uncertain factors in the development of things. If you work hard, even if the results do not meet expectations, you should forgive yourself. Optimism is the strongest driving force and the highest quality. Complaining only makes things worse. Instead of getting stuck in the emotional quagmire, it's better to reorganize your mood, carefully summarize and improve, and start again next year. The frequent occurrence of 'Beiqiu Syndrome' should also be given widespread attention by society. In autumn, schools should offer as many psychological classes as possible, provide more psychological assistance, and provide students with more psychological care; Employers should not forget to put less pressure on employees while keeping up with the progress; In autumn, there is a high incidence of "emotional illness". Medical institutions should increase psychological and psychiatric clinics, grassroots public health service personnel, and family doctors, and make pre treatment of "tragic autumn syndrome" a key content of door-to-door services. The research and drug development of diseases related to the "tragic autumn" should also be accelerated. The importance attached to 'Beiqiu Syndrome' reflects the society's greater emphasis on psychological and mental issues, which means that discussions on mental health issues are more in-depth and specific, which is greatly beneficial for improving the mental health level of the people. But if we want to turn "sorrowful autumn" into "joyful autumn", not only do individuals need to be the first responsible person for maintaining mental health, but also society needs to participate together. Through more effective prevention and intervention measures
