"In the past, I don't know how to face relatives and friends, how to deal with their torture deep in the soul, but now I want to go home but it is a luxury."

"I thought about where I went to play in the long holiday. As a result, the company issued a notice that I was afraid that there was a problem that I would not gather, not to leave, and the festivals became tasteless at once.

"Well, I have made a letter of resignation, but this environment is not recruited everywhere. There are still a large number of just unemployed. Now it is difficult to take root in first -tier cities. what!"

Similar to these experiences are very common in today's urban life. Modern urban gyro -like fast -paced life, rushing past booms, all kinds of fashion, and even unwilling eyes with mask passers -by, all made people a lot of inexplicable concerns.

In the past few years, the general anxiety seems to be a social mentality, and it has also performed vividly in daily life.

There are many ways to relieve anxiety, but what I want to discuss with you today is obsessive -compulsive disorder. You read it right. There are many kinds of compulsive diseases, and some people must constantly surf online; some people keep playing games; others keep shopping or creation ...

The more serious people, the more people want to get rid of the current dilemma. But in fact, all the sources of obsessive -compulsive disorder are likely to be because you are in extreme anxiety, so this kind of obsessive -compulsive disorder is actually helping you fight anxiety.

The book "Fighting Emergency, Accepting ourselves" tells us that whether it is some gentle obsessive behaviors of our ordinary people or some radical obsessive -compulsive disorder, the essence is to fight anxiety, which is also a gift from the brain to humans.

How did it do?

01

Obsessive -compulsive disorder confrontation anxiety in video games

Like other forced behaviors, the behavior of playing video games is not morbid, nor is it a sign of any mental illness. Why do people spend a few hours playing online games every day?

"This is the same as the reasons for them to implement other excessive behaviors. These forced actors will feel bored, want to escape reality, eager for competition and social networking, and their friends are doing the same behavior." Capland said.

The important thing is that online games, especially online games operated by multiple players, will provide players with a virtual role. Players will interact with the protective umbrella of the virtual incarnation. And some people think that this method of anonymous dating is easier, which is easier than those who know people in life. Such games just meet their needs.

Many psychological and fragile people like such online social interaction, because they are not good at face -to -face communication and will feel stress. They are more satisfied with virtual life.

Therefore, for many people, spending a lot of time playing video games is actually a compensation, that is, a response strategy, a method of dealing with stress or depression, can be used to get rid of loneliness and boring jobs. Trouble.

02

Continuously getting online against anxiety

Therefore, compulsory Internet behavior is considered the result of some common psychological characteristics. This kind of human needs that want to feel connected with others have existed before Mark Zuckerberg thought of Facebook's shaking tree tree.

There are also people who are afraid of the anxiety of "missing" something, the reaction to variability / intermittent rewards, and the driving force recognized by friends and strangers. The world of Internet access. Just like playing games, compulsory Internet access should be at least understood as a response strategy, because everyone occasionally needs to respond to some situations.

Like other forced behaviors, those who are forced to internet feel that they are driven by anxiety and must continue to view the situation in the network world through mobile phones or any other electronic devices. This is normal, effective, adjustable, and almost common brain brain The result of operation.

Therefore, we should face up to digitalization forced behavior. It is not a pathological disease, but it is just that the online world can enter the hearts of people, so that many of us have become victims in the digital world.

Compulsive creation confrontation anxiety

Some doctors have found that those who are compulsive creation often think of unable to write scenes, and they are suffering from anxiety. They always imagine that they might not be able to write in the future, and thereby having anxiety, and their usual response is to never stop writing.

It's like an acrobat actor walking on the wire, once stopped, it may fall and die. The doctor team also discovered some other obsessive -compulsive disorder symptoms, including compulsive counters.

"When walking on the street, he will count the gas lamps, doors, especially the number of carriages," McDonald recorded. "When he was at home, how many steps he would count on the stairs, there are several different things on the desk, there are several different things on the desk. ","

And McDonald is also curious. This compulsive writing behavior and other spiritual quirks "help to improve his intelligence"? Has it helped him complete the achievements in writing? "Maybe it is the disease that has achieved one great genius one after another," he concluded, "This causal relationship may be the so -called‘ not crazy magic ’.”

That is, patients with compulsory and unchanging writing impulse are usually manifested as a huge number of works, but the more interesting symptoms are that the writing needs are extremely strong, and they have a sense of compulsory and anxiety due to this need. Just like obsessive -compulsive disorder patients forced themselves to clean, check, count the items, and forced themselves to write. 04

At the end

Maybe you are experiencing the embarrassment that is difficult to ensure that the district is silent, and even three meals a day; because of home office, a large salary is deducted for no reason, and even the rent pays is a problem. I like to "graduate", but I can't find the irritability brought by my favorite work for a long time ...

We all live in this era of anxiety, and forced behavior is actually an instinct to respond to anxiety. Anxiety has overwhelmed us. We can't change the decision of the company's layoffs, nor can we change the survival anxiety brought to us in this era, so we try to seize any behavior that can relieve anxiety.

This is how anxiety drives us to complete the compulsory behavior after another, and the forced behavior is everywhere, but its purpose is only one, that is, to suppress anxiety.

So, reconcile yourself in the forced behavior.

Perhaps we can use forced confrontation anxiety, make life more orderly, and make work more efficient.
