With the accelerated pace of modern life, depression has become a common psychological disorder. However, many people with depression are not willing to go to the hospital to seek **, but choose to carry it on their own. This will not only delay the time, but may also aggravate the condition. So, why do so many people with depression prefer to carry it rather than go to the hospital?
We need to make it clear that depression is a mental illness that is different from a physical illness and is often ignored or trivialized. Many people don't know enough about depression and think it's just a sign of low mood that doesn't need to be done. As a result, some patients are reluctant to admit that they have depression due to self-esteem or misconceptions about the disease, and even less willing to go to the hospital to receive it**.
People with depression are often accompanied by emotions such as low self-esteem, anxiety, fear, etc., which can affect their social and daily lives. They may be afraid of being found out to have depression and fear being discriminated against or ostracized. This psychological burden causes them to be reluctant to communicate with others or even to go out, let alone go to the hospital to seek **.
Some patients may perceive depression as a sign of weakness and would rather carry it on their own than seek help. They believe that by self-regulating and overcoming difficulties, depression symptoms can be alleviated. However, this thinking is often wrong. Depression is a complex mental illness that requires professional expertise and management. Self-regulation alone is often not effective in relieving symptoms and may lead to exacerbations.
The reason why people with depression don't go is also because of inadequate or unevenly distributed medical resources. In some areas, the number of specialized mental health facilities is limited, and it is difficult for patients to obtain timely and effective **. In addition, due to the low awareness of depression in society, some patients may experience a situation where the doctor does not understand or misdiagnose the disease. These factors may cause patients to lose their confidence and choose to carry it on their own instead of going to the hospital.
Why do so many people with depression prefer to carry it rather than go to the hospital? The main reasons include misconceptions about the disease, low self-esteem and fear, and insufficient medical resources. In order to improve the situation, we need to strengthen publicity and education on depression and increase public awareness of the disease. At the same time, the society should increase investment in mental health resources and improve the accessibility and quality of medical services. In addition, we should pay attention to the mental health of patients and provide them with support and care. Only through the joint efforts of the whole society can more patients with depression get timely and effective ** and regain a healthy and happy life.
