Can people with depression chat and tell jokes?

Someone once described his depression like this:

Depression is not as easy to be found as physical illness, and it is not easy to be detected, so some people think that depression is far more terrible than physical illness.

It will destroy a person's emotional control system, and a small thing can make you sad and even commit suicide.

Some people think that some pet words that people with depression usually say may reflect the information of the disease.

So, what are the words that people with depression may often say?

According to my own experience of depression and my thousands of cases of depression, they may say these words.

Freud mentioned in Mourning and Depression:

If you often hear someone say that I don't want to live, this sentence may be a signal of depression once it appears.

Because one symptom of depression is suicidal tendency, it is necessary to understand the inner world of depressed patients in order to explore why a person commits suicide.

In the psychological institution where I used to work, I made a statistic, and most depression will have self-attack.

To put it more popularly, depression often takes it out on itself. When we analyze their growth, we will find that some children will have a lot of anger towards their parents in the process of being raised. When these angry emotions can't be expressed to parents, they will be shut out of consciousness and then pointed at themselves, which becomes a kind of self-attack.

Over time, a person's long-term self-attack will form a habit. When depression attacks, there is nothing to do. Suicide is the most extreme self-attack.

So when a person often says that living is boring, he must be careful, ask him more what happened and tell him to seek professional help when necessary.

The second manifestation of depression is the loss of interest and desire.

At present, scientific research has found that three kinds of brain neurotransmitters in patients with depression are abnormal, namely serotonin, serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine.

5- hydroxytryptamine is mainly distributed in pineal gland and hypothalamus, and participates in the regulation of physiological functions such as pain, sleep and body temperature, which mainly affects people's pleasure level.

Patients with depression usually have lower serotonin than ordinary people, so they will have sleep disorders, especially insomnia, and feel unhappy because of the decline in pleasure experience.

Here, I want to emphasize that if a depressed person feels that he is not interested in anything after reading my popular science, don't blame and ignore me, because such a question can really be answered from the physiological aspect.

People with depression may often say that I am worthless alive.

Depression and inferiority often complement each other. Inferiority makes people prone to depression, and depression overcomes self-esteem.

Depression usually distorts thinking and makes a confident person feel insecure, self-denying, negative and self-loathing.

According to Dr Dean Parker, a clinical psychologist, low self-esteem turns positive or neutral thoughts into "I am not good enough", "I am incompetent" or "I hate myself".

In fact, these are very important factors leading to depression, so when we encounter such problems, we might as well adopt the way of hugging our lover to solve them.

When we feel worthless and powerless because of depression, our nerve endings send messages to the body, releasing the hormone cortisol. This hormone will delay the body's recovery from trauma. Cortisol can stimulate the body to produce a "fight or flight" response, and if it is not controlled, it will cause many physical and psychological diseases to individuals. At this time, we might as well promote the production of oxytocin in the posterior lobe and increase serotonin in the body by hugging, thus enhancing the sense of pleasure from the inside out.

From the above, we can find that patients with depression often say some negative words in addition to obvious signals from their bodies.
