Yes, like the spring of every winter, we have reached the end of this winter and come to spring. As April ends, we are already halfway through May. While hearing the word spring is enough to revitalize the spirits of most of us, it also invites spring depression for many.
Human psychology is affected by many situations, as well as the seasons.
As nature changes in spring, the human soul may also change.
When spring comes, some individuals' moods change. Some symptoms such as not getting out of bed, weakness, not enjoying life, apathy, loss of energy, and attention problems begin to be observed. With these symptoms, the difficult corona days become a little more difficult.
We all know that the serotonin hormone increases in spring and summer due to the effect of sunlight. However, if the person does not meet his physiological needs such as healthy and regular nutrition and sleep during this period and has a personality pattern that is biologically prone to depression, spring depression is inevitable.
Seasonal depression can be seen at any age and the age of onset is 20. It is known as the 1000's of age. Having a family history of diseases such as bipolar disorder and depression, being a woman, difficult living conditions, severe physical diseases, and regions with little daylight exposure increase the risk.
As a personality structure; Predisposition is seen in people who have low self-confidence, are introverted, have a tendency to view themselves and those around them pessimistically, have weaker human relations, and have a more limited stress tolerance.
WHAT TO DO?
Get as much sunlight as possible.
Attention should be paid to sleeping hours, troublesome topics should be avoided before going to bed,
Healthy nutrition should be given importance, especially fatty foods should be avoided, greens and fruits should be included in every meal, and the immune system should be strengthened. To strengthen your body, you should take vitamin A, C and E supplements, drink plenty of water,
New goals should be set,
You should be interested in humor, you should be able to laugh, if you can't laugh, you should learn it
Positive thoughts should be developed,
A warm shower should be taken every day,
Alcoholic beverages should not be consumed excessively.
Even though you are paying attention to all these areas, if you have psychological and physical complaints. If you do not experience a decrease in your strength, it would be appropriate to consult a specialist.
It is also necessary to take into account the conditions we are in. The fight against the coronavirus still continues both in our country and in other countries of the world. We have started to move to the "Controlled Normal Life" process. Spring has come and whether it is prohibited or not, we started to see many people - including the elderly and children - outside during the day.
As such, the stress of people who took care to stay at home began to increase. Those who stay at home because they want to protect themselves and their surroundings, and those who think that in the worst case scenario they will become immune, are also faced with this problem. Please continue to stay at home and respect those who stay at home.
I end my article with my motto for this year..
If we want to be with our loved ones next spring, let's stay at home this spring..
Spring Comes Again, As Long as You Stay Healthy..
