summary

They say that children are catching up with the good times, and that the society is developing in peace and technology. But how many people have seen the pressure on their children? Because of the increasing incidence rate of child depression, many parents are beginning to pay attention to this series of problems. Children's depression symptoms are not obvious, mainly because they do not have enough expression ability, so parents should pay close attention to children's abnormalities. I would like to share with you my views on the symptoms of depression in children.

Symptoms of depression in children

The emotional symptoms of depression in children are as follows: drooping eyes, dullness, apathy, irritability, sensitivity, crying, irritability, restlessness, boredom, timidity, shyness, loneliness, inattention, easy to be frightened, often accompanied by a sense of self blame and self guilt, thinking that they are clumsy, stupid, ugly and worthless, frustrated, despairing and sighing, Not interested in the people and things around, retreat, restraint, no sense of pleasure, etc.

Physical symptoms of childhood depression: sleep disorders, low appetite, weight loss, fatigue, chest tightness, palpitation, headache, stomachache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, enuresis, feces and so on. This kind of situation is often misdiagnosed as a physical disease, but after taking medicine, the "disease" has no signs of improvement.

matters needing attention

Because children's psychological endurance is very weak, they are easy to suffer from children's depression due to external stimulation. It is not only the responsibility of a family, but also the responsibility of the whole society to create a good environment for children's growth. To reduce the psychological burden of children from normal families, help more children who lack family warmth, and keep children's depression away from every child, May they all grow up healthily and happily.
