Why are many people increasingly anxious about higher education now?

First, the uncertainty of the future. High academic qualifications are the result of spending too much time, energy and money on studies, which will inevitably lead to high personal expectations, but the future work return is uncertain, and it is this uncertainty that makes people anxious.

2. The income is lower than expected. People with low education can accept low expectations and low income because they have less investment in their studies. However, people with high education pay too much, and the low income is obviously unacceptable, which also leads to the anxiety of those with high education.

3. Comparison of friends and relatives. Some people with high academic qualifications don't read much, but their relatives and friends around them make a lot of money because they seize the opportunity to start a business, or choose the right career, or choose the right industry, or get the help of people with good popularity. On the other hand, they have worked so hard for many years, have such a high degree and earn less than them, so they are naturally anxious.

4. Parents complain. The higher the educational background, the more time you spend studying, so you can't work to earn money. Because I have no income for a long time, I have to rely on my elderly parents to help me study. My parents often complain, complain and don't understand, so I will be more anxious.

5. Less social experience and fear of society. People with high academic qualifications, who have studied in school for a long time, lack experience in social work and life, have a relatively simple understanding of society, do not understand the real situation of people in society, have inexplicable fears, and increase personal anxiety.

6. The higher the education, the higher the expectations of people around you. At work, if you have a low education and don't do a good job, others will not laugh at you. However, if you have a high degree of education and your working ability is not enough, others will use your high degree to dig at you and humiliate you. This will also make people with high academic qualifications anxious.

7. People with high academic qualifications have higher moral requirements. It is generally believed that people with high academic qualifications have higher moral standards, and naturally people have higher requirements for their words and deeds. If you can't do it, you will be more easily criticized than those with low academic qualifications, which is also a factor that makes people with high academic qualifications anxious.

Eight. People with high academic qualifications have a heavy workload. People with high academic qualifications generally have high incomes, but their work tasks are naturally not easy, and the heavy work pressure also makes them feel anxious.

Nine. Marry late. People with high academic qualifications often miss the golden age of 25-30 years old, which is fertile and easy to get married and start a family, which easily leads to emotional frustration and unsatisfactory marriage. This is also easy to make people anxious.

X. knowledge is updated quickly. Because highly educated people are engaged in professional work, coupled with rapid social progress, in order to do their job better, they must constantly learn more updated professional knowledge, which invisibly increases their pressure and anxiety.

Summary: People with high academic qualifications are more anxious than those with low academic qualifications, because of the uncertainty in the future, lower-than-expected income, the comparison between relatives and friends, parents' complaints, less social experience, high expectations of people around them, high moral requirements, heavy workload, late marriage, rapid knowledge update and other factors.

Highly educated groups are the backbone of technological progress in most industries, but the higher their academic qualifications, the more anxious they are, requiring people to give them more understanding, care, tolerance and support.

Let's analyze this problem from the perspective of cognitive psychology!

Anxiety level is related to high self-esteem. Why is the self-esteem high? The ideal height is the main factor. The greater the gap between a person's ideal and reality, it will lead to a person's ideal divorced from social life. When a person's ideal cannot be realized, he will feel out of control and helpless.

However, people with high academic qualifications generally have high cognitive level, that is, high IQ, not high EQ. The higher the cognitive level, the more "ideas" will be produced, and the more ideas, the greater the pressure.

On the other hand, it is environmental factors. People with high academic qualifications often have high salaries and great pressure. The direct cause of anxiety is of course the activation of stress hormones. When the stress hormone is activated, the human body is already in an early warning state, that is, the nerve reaction is strong.

This problem has universal social characteristics. People with low income and low education have less pressure, so be satisfied because of less demand!

This is not absolute. Life is easy to be impetuous and anxious, which is a common problem of modern people. It is caused by social pressure and has little to do with personal education level. People with low academic qualifications are also anxious.

But a highly educated person will be anxious, and the most important factor is that he expects too much of himself. The higher the education level, the higher the requirements for themselves. When a person can't touch the ideal palace in his heart and has to yield to the reality of life, it is because his talent and ability are not enough to support his ideals and ambitions.

As Jiang once said, "This world is the most cruel to a man with a little talent, because on the one hand, he has a little talent, and he can't accept real life just because he sees a little light of the moon. He thinks the reality is too unbearable, so he wants to go in the direction of the moon, but his talent is not enough for him to reach the moon, so he actually doesn't touch either side. He can't enjoy life, but he will never reach his artistic ideal. "

Hello, I'm Xu Zexu.

Let me answer your question.

Well, first of all, in my opinion, asking this question all the time actually implies causality. Only highly educated people are anxious.

Then let me ask you, won't people with low academic qualifications be anxious? Perhaps you will find that it seems that people with low academic qualifications are also very anxious.

Then speaking of which, maybe I should draw a dividing line. Then this is just a literal answer to your question.

If this happens to you,

Then my answer is that many times we will give something in advance and then pursue something. It can ease our anxiety, for example, one of the options can be a high degree.

So I think it may be that the sense of security provided by a high degree of education has not eased or eliminated those anxieties.

So it is very important for psychology to mention that there is a need behind our emotions. In other words, in fact, the demand is not met.

If you just do these things, then for the child, even if his emotions are barely suppressed, his heart will not be satisfied, and he can look obedient.

Many times this is exactly what we do to ourselves. How can I do it again? How can I have these feelings again? We desperately want to get rid of these. We leave the pain in despair. However, I seldom feel what is deep inside.

So my advice is to learn to get along with anxiety. Instead of covering up and escaping in any way.

If we temporarily equate a high degree of education with the development of learning ability, knowledge and cognition, then the anxiety of those who continue to study and get a high degree is really inevitable.

Let's talk about the problem statement of the subject first, which is related to anxiety and confusion. We can tell you responsibly that those who find the direction of your life are also facing anxiety and confusion like you. Doctors have the anxiety of doctors, and entrepreneurs still have their confusion even if they have made some achievements. Therefore, no matter how the subject chooses, the result is the same. All we can do is concentrate on what we are doing.

Let's talk about the relationship between education and anxiety. Awkward "position" anxiety.

With the improvement of academic qualifications, people around them tend to "talk and laugh". In the process of promotion, you will be in a brand-new circle. These people may be respected and have a successful career. On the other hand, you will find it more and more difficult to get along with people with low academic qualifications, perhaps childhood playmates or relatives with little education. This discouragement and inadaptability will throw you into chaos.

2. "Learn and then know less"

With the improvement of academic qualifications, you will be exposed to more and more profound knowledge, which can completely transform people. You will be in a state of "the more you know, the more you feel ignorant". You will look at the world cautiously, judge every social hot spot rationally, and even dare not say anything definitive, because you know that everything has many sides, and it is meaningless to draw conclusions before you see the whole picture, just like this.

Walking with load

When you get a doctorate or higher education, the attitudes of people around you will change. Few people know that with the further subdivision and deepening of your research topic, they will ask you all kinds of questions, thinking that you can provide perfect advice for their trivial lives, which you are often not good at, so you will get their comments such as "I still have a doctorate, but I don't know". While carrying some small aura and vanity, some criticisms and cognitive differences will also bring you troubles and burdens.

How to alleviate and alleviate this anxiety,

The sage model that anyone can't do makes him a real saint. Inner silence shields the noise and treats everything as a passing thing. The understanding of a person who doesn't understand is insignificant, so that he can live in a pure and troubled world.

Knight mode, which is the choice of most highly educated people, can't help it. High knowledge and strong rational thinking ability will definitely improve their social status and value. Make good use of this, attack the city in the field where you are good at, build strong self-confidence with your achievements, match your personal values with your social achievements, and make your academic qualifications icing on the cake.

The craftsman mode, mentioned at the beginning of this article, focuses on the field that you like or have been studying, and is neither humble nor supercilious. Sharpen a sword for ten years, and you will become a real expert and expert. I believe this will give you a heartfelt joy.

Knowing too much and realizing too little, anxiety is a warning to the future, not a bad thing. But it is undeniable that people can't always be in a state of high emergency, and long-term anxiety becomes a disease.

Anxiety is an unhealthy mental state, just like having a fever when you are sick, telling you that if you don't treat it, you will get seriously ill. In fact, it is a state of thinking more and doing less. Is it wrong to think too much? Actually, there's nothing wrong with it. The mistake is doing too little.

When someone enters the Buddhist system, it is actually like taking antipyretic drugs, which seems to solve the anxiety problem, but in fact it just blocks the alarm signal. Find the little things you can do at present, stick to it and do it again and again. This is the antidote.

The truth of all the so-called mental diseases such as depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, mania and bipolar disorder.

Psychological problems are a very serious social phenomenon at present, especially among children, which makes people feel sad. How many people are in despair, how many families are on the verge of collapse, and most people are still in the dark and don't know the truth and the way out. That's terrible!

What I want to tell you is that all the so-called psychological problems, no matter what type, no matter how serious, no matter how complicated the symptoms are, actually do not exist at all. Why are these so-called mental diseases so difficult to cure? Because we have been solving a non-existent problem, how to solve it? The result will only cause more and more serious problems. Obviously, all negative emotions are normal emotions that everyone has, just like breathing. If you have to solve it, you can only solve your life, which is why many people finally choose to go to a dead end. Most people will let go of negative emotions quickly, but we can't. We must solve it, even if the larger foe breaks through, the result will be more and more serious. As we all know, there is no need to solve the problem unless it is solved. No matter how hard life is, there is nothing to let go of. When you leave this world, you can't take anything away.

Life is a drama, so why be so serious and bother yourself.

In fact, there are many people worse off than you in reality. Most people don't take it seriously or answer it. We not only pick it up, but also don't want to put it down. As long as you put it down, there will be no pain. If we can't let go, there's nothing anyone can do. But there is a painful way. Suffering is enough, and you will naturally let go.

I want to tell you that it is a very wrong choice to choose to end your life. Ending life is not the end of pain, but just the beginning of another endless pain. Life will never end, and every life has its meaning.

Anyway, what is the essence and truth of these so-called psychological problems? Knowing this, all the so-called psychological problems will be solved. Because it doesn't actually exist, of course, there is nothing to solve.

Some people say, how can it not exist? The problems we face in reality are as real as the pain we bear in our hearts. We just can't sleep, our symptoms and diseases are real, I just can't see any hope of life, and so on. These pains obviously exist. Isn't it self-deception to say that it doesn't exist?

Yes, everything is so real to you. What I want to say is that these so-called real situations are only results, not causes, but also superficial phenomena, not essence. They are not static. To solve these so-called psychological problems, we must start from the root causes. Whether through psychological counseling or drug therapy, everyone is using phenomena to solve phenomena and problems to solve problems. Instead of solving the problem, it will continue to worsen.

All psychological problems, no matter what kind of negative emotions, will be manifested as uncontrollable thoughts, constant thinking, unable to eat, unable to sleep, physical and mental fatigue. They just want to understand that the more they think about it, the more uncontrollable the vicious circle will be until it collapses. This is because in this process, our energy will gradually run out and we will lose the ability to control our own thinking more and more. In the end, even our own lives will be given up, which is an illusion of low energy state. In that energy state, even a sesame seed will become a mountain and crush itself.

In this case, only by increasing energy can it be changed. This energy is not only eating and resting, but more importantly, it is to stop the erosion of negative energy (negative thinking) and constantly improve positive energy. To break the vicious circle, stop thinking (you will never think about it, and you will never think about the result) and turn to positive thinking to save energy. With positive energy, you can control your own thinking and everything in your life. With positive energy, the problem that bothered you in the past has changed from watermelon to sesame.

So how do you stop thinking? We just can't help thinking! In fact, we can't control our thoughts because negative energy (all negative emotions) is so powerful that we are controlled by negative energy. Because people with different negative energy express different negative emotions, physical symptoms are even more strange, and there are all kinds of so-called psychological problems, which are actually the same in essence.

As long as the essence is grasped, all the so-called psychological problems naturally do not exist and do not need to be solved at all, because there is nothing to solve. No matter what your situation is, no matter how serious it is, no matter how real and difficult the real problem is, no matter how serious your health is, even if you are terminally ill, there is only one root cause and one solution. Find the root cause, all the problems in life are soap bubbles.

What is the root cause? The fundamental reason lies in the wrong three views and the wrong pursuit of value. At present, it can be said that 99% people in the world are pursuing the wrong things. Pursue material things, all kinds of desires, pornography, unfilial, do not cherish life, only know to take but do not know the meaning of life is to give rather than take, and have pressure (have to pursue a specific goal or requirement). Because of these wrong views, every thought, every word and every action in our hearts are directed at desires and needs. There must be a desire behind every negative emotion. There are also many parents who impose these misconceptions on their children, blaming others for hurting their children and blaming themselves. All our desires and negative emotions are negative energy, which will be constantly entangled and amplified. In the end, positive energy will be less and less, and even we will be proud of negative energy and ashamed of positive energy. Isn't this a common phenomenon in modern society? Why do most people live in pain? This is the general source. Everyone's performance is different, some are physically ill, some are mentally ill, some encounter setbacks or disasters, and so on.

When we get the so-called mental illness, we begin to blame others, think that we are unlucky and think that heaven is unfair. In fact, God is the fairest. Every mistake you make, you have to bear it yourself. And everyone is choosing to avoid responsibility, but how can they escape? Some people want to talk to a psychological counselor, but actually talking is releasing negative energy, which will not only solve the problem, but also attract more negative energy. Some people hope to solve it through drugs. It's obviously a matter of heart. How to solve the drug? Isn't that ridiculous? Others want someone to help them. How does the other person in your heart make it work? How can others understand your whimsy under negative emotions?

You live in a dream and only wake up. Who can interpret dreams? Wake up. What's the problem?

To solve this problem, you must first understand where you are wrong and that no one is punishing you. It's all your own fault. The universe is the fairest. If you are still happy when you are wrong, it is really unreasonable. In fact, it's nobody's fault outside, it's all your own fault. Don't complain, just reflect on yourself. The theory of family origin simply doesn't exist. Are harmful. You decide your own destiny, so don't give yourself any reasons or excuses. Don't think that it is caused by all practical problems such as family environment, others bullying you, interpersonal tension, lack of money, stress, physical illness and so on. Wrong, these problems are also phenomena, the result of three wrong views, and the result of the same root as your psychological problems are all appearances and have the same root of mistakes. Even if these problems are solved, your psychological problems still exist and there will be bigger problems to remind you.

Every pain reminds you that you are wrong and makes you turn around quickly. Once you look back, pain loses its value of existence. The sea of misery is boundless, and turning back is the shore. As long as you don't look back, the pain will follow you. Behind every pain, there is a persistence and a desire. Only let go of persistence and desire. The past is the past, and everything is of my own making. No one has hurt you, and no one can hurt you. Accept what you are facing. This is the result of what you have done in the past and cannot be changed. What we can do now is to recognize our mistakes and correct them. From now on, keep positive thoughts, words and behaviors, stop spreading and releasing negative energy, including at home and on the Internet, starting from the side, starting from small things, starting from housework, helping others, dedicating yourself, letting go of selfishness, desire, material desire, honoring parents, cherishing all life and fearing nature. These are the true meaning of life, returning to humanity. Where can there be psychological problems? Where are the life problems to be solved? Where does it hurt? What's unfair?

Also, parents with children's problems, please let their children go, let them go, don't care too much, give them a correct outlook on life education, give them freedom, and don't give them too much pressure. Internet generation, less contact with video games, pornographic websites and other addictive things, stop killing children with drugs! ! !

Finally, I can tell you that I used to be a so-called serious mental patient for more than twenty years, no matter how desperate and helpless I was. Now, I have been born again. I hope to share my experience gained with blood and tears with you, and I hope to help more people who are still trapped in the bottomless abyss of pain come out. I hope to save more families and children on the verge of collapse.

Thinking that you have so-called psychological problems and trying to solve them are the real reasons and the beginning of all the pain. With the process of solving, the pain is getting bigger and bigger. This is the fundamental difference between normal people and so-called mental patients. All real problems in life are the same, and not solving them is the best solution. Do nothing. Do nothing. Most people have done it backwards, so it's miserable.

Many people say they can't let go. Nothing can't be let go. People have to put it down when they die. No one can take it away. If you don't put it down, you will continue to suffer on your back. There is no choice, and no one can help you put it down. The only way to let go is to accept, accept what others and yourself have experienced, and accept everything that may happen!

Friends with feelings, I hope everyone will forward more. Helping others is helping yourself.

Anxiety is not directly related to academic qualifications. Anxiety is often caused by uncertainty about the future. Generally, people with low self-awareness, low sense of security and low sense of value are more likely to be anxious. In addition, it will be affected by the surrounding environment and anxious.

Truth is truth, Tao is Tao, and reason is reason. Ancient scholars taught puzzles by industry, but today's scholars taught puzzles by industry, so they are so fascinated. How can you be anxious when you are fascinated and don't ask?
