In psychological clinics, the top source of stress for men aged 30-50 is work and interpersonal pressure, followed by economic pressure and marital and family pressure. In addition to these three mountains, the decline of one's own health and physical fitness, the physical health of the elderly, and the pressure of children's education are all sources of stress for middle-aged men.
There are also some middle-aged men who have been under long-term stress, although they cannot find prominent sources of stress, some sudden life events can also become triggers for mental disorders. So in this situation, special attention should be paid to their emotional fluctuations and various physiological indicators.
Form of 'pressure source'
Workaholic: The average person's normal working hours are 8-10 hours, which is the load on human health. If you work for more than 12 hours for a long time, it can create pressure on the human body.
Extreme loss
The emotional response derived from a sense of loss can lead to a pessimistic, disappointed, lack of confidence, and even a cynical mindset. The pressure of career poses the greatest threat to white-collar men. Unable to withstand this kind of pressure often leads to a sense of loss, which is commonly referred to as the 'gray mentality'.
Difficult to withstand high pressure
The marriage between the personality of white-collar men and the characteristics of the times has nurtured competition. Long term exposure to the atmosphere of intense competition can make them extremely nervous, depressed, and disappointed, leading to emotional fluctuations.
Family crisis
The work environment, social environment, and the value choices and emotional orientations among family members can all hide and trigger family crises. Even in situations where there is no reason for conflict, pressure will still come to you through the family. This makes many middle-aged men unhappy all day long, sometimes feeling anxious and upset.
Disease strike
Diseases are most likely to cause mental depression, and some may even lose confidence in life. The pressure of illness comes from the worry of losing health and losing confidence in recovery.
Excessive greed
If there is a high desire for money, wealth, and other things, it is greed, which causes long-term nervous tension in the brain, accelerates the normal rhythm of heart and brain movements, and produces a rhythm that is not coordinated with normal physiological functions, which can harm the brain, heart, and body.
Self relieving 'stressors'
Degree of holding of work sheets
If you are overwhelmed by intense work, it's best to take a break or slow down immediately. After a short and easy break, you may do better.
Reasonably arrange work and rest schedules
Strictly implement the self established schedule to ensure that life, study, and work can proceed in a regular manner.
Pay attention to cultivating a good mindset
Strengthen psychological cultivation and cultivate the habit of conducting psychological analysis. You can consider making friends with psychologists in order to receive their help frequently.
