Little Lion: "Where is happiness?"

Mother Lion: "Happiness is right on your tail."

▎I feel like only death can escape all this—Analyzing poor self-regulation skills

"I'm useless like this. How will I enter society in the future? What kind of future can I have?"

"I was already under a lot of pressure, and seeing how excellent my colleagues are while I'm the only one not progressing makes me more and more depressed."

◎ How to enhance self-regulation skills?

⁃ Use positive psychology for self-suggestion

Find things you like about yourself; this is very useful for self-acceptance.

⁃ Understand that everything has a "limit"

Everything has a matter of degree; exceeding the limit leads to the opposite effect.

⁃ Shift your attention

Psychologically shift your emotions and energy to other activities.

⁃ Set appropriate goals

Self-expectations should be built on a realistic and feasible basis that matches your actual situation.

▎Constantly thinking even when not interested—Analyzing Neurasthenia

"Lately, I often have headaches, fatigue, insomnia, vivid dreams, poor appetite, and weight loss."

"I feel groggy all day, unable to concentrate, my memory has significantly declined, and my temper has become very bad."

◎ How to regulate neurasthenia?

⁃ Use self-hypnosis

Hang a small ball in front of your eyes, stare at it without blinking easily, and softly chant instructions to guide yourself into relaxation and sleep.

⁃ Everyone is different; accept yourself calmly

Learning to express dissatisfaction politely is important; calmly accepting your depression can make you physically and mentally healthier.

⁃ Know yourself correctly and set appropriate goals

Those with neurasthenia often have an overly idealized self; recovery should start with a correct understanding of oneself.

⁃ Find joy for yourself

What makes me happy might not make you happy; you must first understand what makes you happy.
