9 symptoms you should talk to a psychologist about

sipmptomy_stoit_pogovorit_s_psihologom

Research suggests that only 30% of those who really need the help of a psychologist seek it. What happens to the rest? They go to hospitals, where they are redirected from one room to another and cannot help, or they quietly suffer on their own, tormenting their loved ones.

 

The fact is that psychological disorders associated with subdepressive state or neurosis are not treated with painkillers.

Maybe it’s time for you to think about whether it’s time to spend time and money on professional help from a psychologist?

What are some signs that you might need this kind of help? Of course, the most useful strategy is to first rule out physical causes of such symptoms by consulting with doctors, and only then seek a professional psychologist.

Tachycardia

What does this look like in reality? Your heart suddenly goes into overdrive and begins to beat very quickly and strongly, your palms begin to sweat, and you are out of breath. Pay attention to where this happens most often. If the location is repeated (for example, in an enclosed space), then these may be symptoms of an anxiety disorder.

Teeth deteriorates

You notice that teeth grinding accompanies you during the day and your family says that it happens at night too, and the dentist says that your teeth are wearing away. When stress becomes prolonged, the substances in the saliva that protect the enamel are no longer produced as much as before, and the worn-out enamel does not protect the teeth well.

Hair loss

Sometimes hair falls out due to nervous fatigue, the blood vessels spasm and the blood does not nourish the hair follicles as before, and they begin to die and the hair falls out. During prolonged stress, the body requires much more nutrients, which, as a rule, enter the body in the same quantity and therefore the body wisely redistributes them - cutting off from replenishment what you can live without - namely, without your wonderful hair.

Itching  

Without any allergic reason and without any visible skin problems, you feel an uncontrollable urge to itch. Although you wash regularly and insects do not bite you. Such scabies can be a manifestation of an internal conflict that is tearing you apart from the inside. For example, your job is already extremely boring, but you can’t quit it because you have to pay off the loan, and you can’t give up the standard of living to which you’re accustomed, especially since you don’t want to be considered a failure in your family.

People are avoiding you

Your behavior in relationships or mood has seriously changed. Perhaps at first your friends asked you “what happened to you?”, but you couldn’t understand what was happening to you and thought that they were just nagging, and then they simply began to avoid you. Usually close people subtly grasp the changes that happen to us. This is an outside view that is available to us. Perhaps their criticism is a good reason to think that everyone cannot be wrong and there is a rational grain in this. If, wanting to help, they encounter hostility and every time the door to your inner world slams in their face, then they will simply stop knocking on this door. Care that does not generate a response is not very exciting.

 You keep losing everything

If you do not solve the problem of internal stress, which consumes the body's resources, then the body, of course, begins to adapt. It produces special hormones, glucorticoids, which switch the body to slow speed, into energy conservation mode, suppressing the emotional sphere. As a result, you become an absent-minded person who goes through the day without interest in life, tired and forgetful.

Constant nightmares  

Generally speaking, any sleep disruption is not a good sign. Both insomnia and the tireless desire to lie in bed all day are a sign that not everything is in order with the psychological state. The presence of nightmares is already a very bad sign that the psyche is under extreme pressure and is thus trying to digest the internal conflict that is tearing it apart.  

Decreased immunity or allergies

You begin to notice that you are getting sick much more often. Either a cold, or diarrhea, or something else. Of course, the disease may have understandable physiological causes. And if the reasons are still the same, and the number of diseases per year has increased sharply, then it makes sense to think about whether this is due to psychological stress. The fact is that the stress hormone cortisol dulls the immune system. She stops responding to infections and bacteria as before. Therefore, you become a regular customer of pharmacies.  

Unexplained allergies

The same corticosteroids are produced more actively during stress and cause a reaction in the body akin to an allergy. Therefore, if doctors shrug their shoulders and cannot understand the cause of your allergy, then it may not be dust or pollen that is to blame, but the fact that you cannot tolerate some situation that is tormenting you

As a rule, when the body begins to tell us about our problems, it means that we no longer want to hear it any other way. This is the so-called psychosomatics - the body’s reaction to psychological problems.

If you observe symptoms that have no physiological basis, perhaps you should investigate them, perhaps you are hiding from you some psychological problems in your body.< /p>
