Reminder: Don't treat depression as insomnia
Many patients with depression early on believe that they are insomnia, often seeking treatment for insomnia, and some patients even purchase sedative and hypnotic drugs to improve insomnia. A common phenomenon is that insomnia seems to improve at the beginning of medication, leading the patient to believe more in their own judgment. However, as the condition progresses, the patient feels that the amount of hypnotic drugs they need is increasing, but they still do not get enough rest, their energy is getting worse, their mood is getting worse, and even other physical problems occur, such as decreased appetite and physical strength, palpitations, chest tightness, shortness of breath, etc. Finally, even insomnia may worsen before going to a doctor.
Finally, experts emphasize that solving the question of "What should men do when they often feel sad?" should depend on different situations. If self adjustment is difficult, it is best to consult a professional psychologist as soon as possible and request a doctor's diagnosis and treatment. Especially men who often feel sad and have suicidal thoughts should seek treatment as soon as possible to avoid serious consequences.
