Where does modern people’s stress come from?

1. Urban white-collar workers: stressful work

Urban white-collar workers are under great work pressure, are highly mentally stressed, and lead fast-paced lives. This group of people are in a state of high tension for a long time, and if they do not get timely adjustment, they will feel physically and mentally exhausted. Over time, psychological problems and diseases such as anxiety, depression, and mental disorders may arise. From a physiological point of view, long-term high mental stress can also cause endocrine dysfunction and decreased human immunity, leading to various physiological diseases.

2. Divorced people: psychological trauma

The divorce rate among modern people is getting higher and higher, and the victims after divorce, especially women, often cannot withstand the blow of divorce, causing great physical and mental harm. If timely adjustment is not made, it is very likely to induce mental illness due to excessive psychological burden. A survey shows that among the current divorced people in my country, about 70% suffer from excessive psychological pressure due to various reasons. These people need to find someone to talk to and should receive psychological help.

3. Poor families: life pressure

People who suffer from mental illness due to excessive psychological pressure caused by poverty are mainly laid-off workers and poor college students. Due to layoffs, especially when both husband and wife are laid off, the psychological pressure is enormous. If they cannot find a suitable job for a while, it is very likely to cause mental illness.
