I can't stop scrolling through my phone at night, even though I'm tired, I can't sleep; Suddenly lose interest in the milk tea hot pot that I used to like; My best friend's first reaction to going shopping is' it's so troublesome ' These details are like small notes hidden in the corners of life, quietly recording subtle changes in emotions. Depression is like a winter morning mist, it won't instantly overwhelm you, but it will gradually blur the colors of life.

1. Emotional signals are harder to predict than weather forecasts
1. Decreased happiness perception
Seeing colleagues receiving flowers no longer feels romantic, unable to smile when scrolling through cute pet videos, and unable to even taste the sweetness of their favorite chocolate. This emotional dullness is like putting a layer of frosted glass on the soul, making the beauty of the outside world hazy and distant.
2. Persistent fatigue
Sleeping for 8 hours a day is still like running a marathon, dressing up requires mobilizing all willpower, and even unpacking packages becomes physical labor. This fatigue is not a warning from the body, but rather a long-term low battery state of the emotional battery.
2. Behavior Pattern "Bug"
1. Social media program automatically closes
Weekend party list changes from KTV to bedside lamp, WeChat group chat returns from seconds to no longer read back, even the knocking of the delivery guy's door makes people nervous. It's not about becoming isolated, but maintaining social skills is like walking with a sandbag on your back.
2. Decision System Stuck
Standing in front of the wardrobe for half an hour without being able to choose clothes, ordering takeout for two hours and still feeling hungry, even the choice of "lunch or noodles" can trigger anxiety. Simple decisions become difficult multiple-choice questions.
3. Unconventional body reminders
1. Pain locator malfunction
Migraine with no identifiable cause, joint pain without sprain, and recurrent bloating with normal gastroscopy. These physical signals are actually emotional alarms Clock, like the error code that pops up when the computer screen is blue.
2. Disordered biological clock program
Staring at the ceiling to count sheep at 3am, struggling with eyelids at 10am, waking up from nap more exhausted than before bedtime. Poor sleep quality is like an appliance that has been disconnected from the power supply, never fully charged.
4. Cognitive filter suddenly changes color
1. Memory chip reads slowly
The key that was just put down is forgotten in a blink of an eye, the important meeting date is recorded as yesterday, and the movie plot that was watched seems to have been mosaic. This is not a precursor to Alzheimer's disease, but a lack of cache caused by emotional overload.
2. Self evaluation system malfunction
Completing the project feels lucky, receiving praise and suspicion is polite, small mistakes can be self blamed for a whole week. This cognitive bias is like looking at oneself in sunglasses, no matter how you look at it, it's always dull. When you notice these signals frequently appearing, don't rush to label yourself. Just like a phone occasionally freezes and requires memory cleaning, emotions also need regular maintenance. Record daily small joys, set a 'pause button' for negative thoughts, and replace 'I must' with 'I can try'. Under the snow in winter, there are seeds waiting to sprout, and the temporarily concealed vitality is waiting for the appropriate temperature to break through the soil and emerge.
