Let's start with depression in cultivation, the starting point is low enough, and the promotion is fast.

Fan Ren scratched his head and said: But I'm not depressed, and I'm not very anxious, I just have a little headache.

Lao Sun sneered: I see that you are bipolar disorder, and you are going to float again. People who are not anxious or depressed at all do not exist in this world at all, they are fearless realms, and they have already attained immortality.

No one is perfect, and cultivating immortals must first face up to themselves.

On the road to the evolution of human emotional intelligence, there are countless passes, and there will be seven demon kings who will be the gatekeepers: loneliness, fear, boredom, anxiety, depression, trouble, and namelessness. This is a clone of the demons, invisible and shadowless, appearing and disappearing, coming and going without a trace, fluctuating and uncertain.

There will be a chapter on mind cultivation later, and it will be the final battle with the heart demons.

This monastic text is very brain-burning, and if you are unfortunately in the lowest trance, it is likely that your own energy is not enough to support reading. It is said that depression is so terrible that others cannot understand it, and I am unable to interpret it, and it is a painful predicament from which it is difficult to extricate myself.

Comparatively speaking, I have a deep experience of anxiety, and at its worst, I can feel trembling all over my body when walking down the street, and I can't control my voice when I talk on the phone. But it is not yet an anxiety disorder, and having symptoms does not necessarily mean that you are sick. It's actually hard to say about depression, everyone will have a low mood, but what the severity is, you can only know from other people's descriptions, and this is about the root of seeking the Tao, or to figure out the reason.

In fact, if you search on the Internet, there are a lot of articles about depression and anxiety, if you are a porter, then you can have a lot of text if you move a little bit casually, but when I write this chapter, every point of view is made by independent thinking, and I will never pick up people's teeth and wisdom. And we strive to have unique opinions. There are several reasons for this: first, the mainstream view is that it is a product of the commercial society, which is for the purpose of profit, and the analysis of the disease is nothing more than the promotion of its drugs. Second, it's too complicated, and I like to simplify the problem so that it's easy to deal with. I am only interested in the nature of things, and I already know enough about the phenomena of the world. Third, it is not suitable. For example, for depression, there is a test table, which can be self-tested, and scored from 1-5, but most of them are inconsistent, and it is better to analyze them yourself to recognize yourself better. There are also fourth, fifth, ...... So my thinking may not be insightful, but it must be real. It may not be universal, just for reference.

Depression and anxiety are not diseases and can be seen as a habit, and habit change is difficult. In fact, I am very hesitant to say this, which is easy to cause controversy, and I prefer to see it as the exhaustion of the soul. The body is tired and can be recovered by resting. How to solve the exhaustion of the soul? In a state of exhaustion, it is difficult to endure every minute, but I don't know how to rest, and the rest of the soul is a big problem.

There are many negative emotions in people, just to name them: shame, shame, anger, jealousy, sadness, chagrin, regret, loneliness, loss, panic, numbness, loneliness, low self-esteem, fear, boredom, pain...... And so on, some emotions are even very difficult to classify, people are super complex advanced animals, with such a wealth of emotions, I don't know whether it is fortunate or unfortunate, negative emotions are not necessarily bad things, although no one likes it, but just ask: why does happiness exist? There is no bitterness, where sweetness comes from. This is the relationship between good and bad, beautiful and unbeautiful.

It is necessary to get rid of negative emotions and not to immerse themselves in them, but there is no need to reject and resist them. Even the sages are not exempt, and the realm is sublimated by tempering.

Negative emotions often have their own causes and are often triggered by events. And the most difficult to deal with are loneliness, fear and boredom, these three demons are different from other demons, they are uninvited, innate, and not exempt due to life circumstances.

The Buddha said: All living beings are suffering, and suffering is loneliness, fear and boredom.

I like to simplify the problem, the total source of negative emotions is fear, or all negative emotions can be combined into one, becoming a big boss fear king.

It is precisely because of fear that there is a need for safety, which is also the source of human motivation.

Complicating simple things, and simplifying complex things, is to facilitate analysis and understanding.

I thought of you in my loneliness,

Thinking of you is even more lonely,

The more lonely you can dream,

I dreamed of tears in my eyes.

Fear is lost again,

Losing is inevitably more fearful,

More fear can't sleep,

Insomnia can no longer be dreamed of.

Boredom is the fear of loneliness,

Long nights are more boring,

Loneliness is the greatest fear,

I don't exist without me.

There was once a sincere love in front of me, but I didn't cherish it, and I regretted it when I lost it, the most painful thing in the world is nothing more than this, if God gives me another chance I will say to her: I love you! If I had to add a period of time to this relationship, I think it would be 10,000 years.

Lao Sun blushed, Lao Sun blushed, and Fan Ren laughed.

When a person is ashamed, his face will be red, hehe, so it can be inferred that when a person is immersed in a certain negative emotion, it will have a great impact on the body.

This is something that must be quickly extricated from it so as not to fall. Negative emotions are like a curse on the tarsus, and they are not sad at first, but provide motivation for action and satisfy a masochistic tendency as self-punishment for mistakes. But this must not be left unattended, because once the human brain has formed a habit and made it a normal state, it is difficult to recover later, and it is easier to fall back every time. Genshin is very stubborn in this and acts strictly according to experience.

As for the circumstances that lead to negative emotions, they are a separate topic and will not be discussed. Through the cultivation of one's state of mind, one's situation will only improve, but it may not be able to get rid of the predicament, but at least getting rid of negative emotions is a very crucial step.

Depression and anxiety are like swamps, if you can't get out, you will only fall deeper and deeper, and often you can't realize it, and if you can't extricate yourself, you will regret it too late

Any habit, at the very beginning, is the easiest to change. If you can't quickly change the situation that led to the loss, then the best thing to do is to accept and adapt to the current situation as quickly as possible to avoid falling into depression and anxiety.

If it rises to the level of depression and anxiety, it is not just a psychological or emotional problem, because the problem is long-term, it will become a physical problem, so that even if the situation improves, or the mood improves, the body will not change immediately, so the complete cure can only be a cycle of slow improvement. You can't lose confidence because of repetition, and drugs or tobacco and alcohol will eventually backfire if you are relieved for a while.

Depression and anxiety are not all negative, this is the only way to the world of bliss, life without this test is imperfect, through the tempering of depression and anxiety, the realm can be sublimated, in order to realize selflessness. It's not okay to go through setbacks in life, but it's not okay to go through too many setbacks. Joy and happiness are relatively true.

Poetry is the most embodying people's emotions, and emotions have created famous poems through the ages. In Tang and Song poems, all kinds of emotions are reverberating. From a cultural point of view, negative emotions are really positive energy for creation.

Grief and indignation are easy to become poems, but they are not conducive to monasticism. Make achievements in life, and don't be sentimental. In this regard, look at the leader's poems, the more difficult and difficult, the more high-spirited, the higher the realm, what can not be done?

Negative emotions are unavoidable and not scary. What really harms people is the demons that come from it: depression and anxiety.

Twins with negative emotions look very similar and are difficult to identify. The main feature of depression is low mood; Whereas, the main characteristic of anxiety is emotional tension. Depression is not wanting to do things, while anxiety is the fear of doing bad things.

These two generally like to join forces to torment poor souls, and the more afraid they are to do things, the more lazy they are to do things; The more things you do, the more you are afraid of not doing well; The less you like to do things, the more afraid you are to do things; You see, as soon as these two guys make a move, they will pull the prey into a vicious circle and it will be difficult to extricate themselves.

Sometimes I am not depressed, I do a lot of things, but I am more anxious.

Sometimes, in order not to be anxious, I do less work, but I am more depressed.

The most terrifying ability of these two demons is invisibility, and there are so many incarnations that they can't feel their existence at all, and once they discover their true body, they have already fallen into their clutches.

Of course, these two guys also have weaknesses, most people can successfully repel them, it's easy to drive them away, it's difficult to completely destroy them, it's going to be a lifelong enemy.

The previous analysis of the Yuan Shen and the Consciousness of the Spirit, the sense of security and the sense of completion is to deal with these two guys, and first see what weaknesses they have.
