10 Symptoms of mental illness

Usually, frequent abdominal pain is related to acidity or indigestion, but if you feel stomach cramps only when you are worried or upset, then it can be a sign of poor mental health.

Harvard University researchers say that the stomach has a deep connection with the brain. Whenever you are under anxiety or stress, the brain sends signals to the stomach to slow down, which slows down your digestion. The brain sends these signals so that it can fight stress or anxiety. When this happens, the problem of stomach cramps, flatulence, and pain often arises.

When there is any kind of crisis in mental health, first of all, your stomach starts giving you signals, but if you ignore this signal, then soon it starts affecting the whole body. According to statistics, the risk of pain is three times more in people living with depression. This pain can be in any part of the body or the whole body. There is only one part of the brain where neurons help to feel pain and depression. That's why if there is any kind of disturbance in this network, you also feel depression and the pain also increases. This is the reason why most anti-depressants also act as pain relievers.

There is no harm in being alone for some time and spending some time with yourself, but the desire to be alone is more seen in a person suffering from mental disorders, especially depression. You will not see many gestures on his face and his voice also sounds muffled.

However, there is another condition called 'smiling depression'. In this, the person shows himself happy from the outside but inside his mind thoughts of suicide are going on. This type of depression is difficult to recognize because it does not have any common symptoms. If you feel tired in the morning and you do not feel like doing your daily work, then there may be a possibility of this type of depression. Tell your friend or doctor about this and seek their help.

A study by the University of British Columbia in the year 2004 found that people suffering from stress and anxiety fall ill easily. This is because they are always worried about something or the other, so their brain signals the immune system, which slowly lowers the overall immunity. Because of this, the risk of infection is highest in people suffering from stress.

Surprisingly, stress can cause the immune system to become hyperactive, leading to autoimmune disorders (in which the immune system attacks the body's tissues and organs) such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus (a long-term disease). Long-lasting inflammatory and inflammatory diseases).
