Why are people prone to depression and suicide in autumn? How to prevent "sad autumn" syndrome

There are four seasons in a year, climate change, and each season has its own characteristics; Different seasons and climates can also make people feel slightly different physically and psychologically.

For example, the temperature drops sharply in winter and the weather is cold. People need to wear thick clothes to resist the cold weather. If we don't pay attention to climate change and add clothes in time, people will catch a cold, so colds are prevalent in winter. There are also corresponding epidemics in other seasons.

There are seasonal epidemics in human body and seasonal epidemics in human heart.

It's not hard to understand. Our hearts live in our bodies, and naturally, like our bodies, they will be affected by seasonal changes. Every autumn, the "psychological cold" of depression will become popular.

Modern medical research has proved that there is a gland called "pineal gland" at the bottom of the human brain. The pineal gland is located under Baihui point of human brain, between eyebrows and deep in Tang Yin. After beginning of autumn, the days became shorter and rainy weather increased. The pineal gland began to secrete a large amount of pineal hormone (melatonin), thus inhibiting the secretion of thyroxine and adrenaline.

Both thyroxine and adrenaline help to enhance thinking activities and revitalize people's minds. Without these two hormones, the functional activity of brain cells will be reduced, the inhibition process will be enhanced, and depression will occur. Therefore, it is easier to feel sad and induce depression in autumn.
