The dangers of staying home

In recent years, the "home culture" has gradually become popular in urban areas, and the Internet environment also provides the possibility of a long-term home, some liberal work, can be done completely at home through the cell phone or computer to achieve communication and communication with the outside world, and thus to obtain normal needs and income.

But staying home is not a healthy lifestyle. A study in Neurological Sciences called the "Groundhog Day Effect" tells us that if a person stays in one environment too long, it's easy to become stupid.

The study, conducted by researchers at the University of New South Wales, looked at 4,175 people who had been forced to live in isolation due to the Newcastle epidemic and found that after a long period of confinement, these people showed a decline in mental health and cognitive ability, and even teetered on the edge of depression.

More than 70% of the 4,175 participants who were forced into quarantine experienced negative emotions such as boredom, depression, and fear of infection.

Thirty percent of the university participants experienced cognitive problems while in residential isolation, as evidenced by poor memory or inability to concentrate or spend long periods in a state of unconsciousness and relaxation.

Researchers believe that being in the same monotonous environment for a long time is the main cause of negative psychological as well as cognitive problems. Because the environment helps us to retrieve memories, stimulate the brain, and promote the inner workings of the body when you stay in one environment every day, it becomes difficult for the brain to distinguish these memories, in a chaotic state, and cognitive ability naturally declines.

At the same time, long-term homes without social interaction will also increase the probability of depression, Royal Academy of Sciences psychiatrists have more than 40,000 Norwegian volunteers, and a study finally found that.

Those who regularly participate in outdoor activities, regardless of the amount of exercise, as long as the behavior of outdoor activities has a significantly lower risk of depression than those who stay at home for a long time to refuse social activities.

The study also found that people who stayed at home for a long time were 1-2 times more likely to suffer from depression than the average person. In short, the conclusion is that "extreme home" is a way of life that accelerates the death of human beings.

There is no antagonistic relationship between "home-staying" itself and death, and for some people who used to be more socially active, moderate "home-staying" can help them restore their physical and mental balance.

But anything is too much, and humans are a group species, and even introverts need to participate in social activities to ensure their survival and physical and mental health.

Without the existence of a group, the vast universe will instantly drown the individual, as tough as "Robinson" still needs the company of "Friday", let alone a living human being, so do not let yourself fall into a long-term "house "in.

If it is because of the epidemic and other irresistible factors, you should also try to find things to do to communicate with others and stimulate the brain to be neurologically active, to ensure that their internal systems circulate properly.

At present, in addition to the people in our lives who are forced to carry because of objective factors such as epidemics and work, some people choose to stay at home on their initiative. These people usually have insufficient social skills and are withdrawn, making it difficult for them to survive in society.

For example, 28-year-old Xian Xian, whose education is not high, can only do some manual work, two years ago after unemployment, he chose to home to rest, which knows that since then home never want to go out, and during this period he was addicted to the network, the whole day with computer games as a companion.

Because the game is not bad, he was able to "sell equipment" to earn a little pocket money, his income is only enough to barely survive, often there is no next meal, but even so, he is still not willing to go out to find a job.

He played games day and night, didn't want to talk to people, and his health was deteriorating. He felt that in the game he could find the dignity of being a human being and the value of his existence, so even though he knew that it was not a permanent solution, he preferred to be addicted to it and did not want to wake up.

Xian this kind of people in the world are distributed, Japan called "sophomoric", China called "outtake", their common point is to stay at home and not go out, to escape reality.

Because social value is not high to participate in social activities, so to avoid social activities, and social development, the more you escape the more you can not adapt to society, and then enter a vicious circle, and eventually, people will become stupid.

In fact, as an acquired species, social skills are not something we are born with but need to be accumulated slowly through participation in a large number of social activities. "If you want to know a tree, go to the other tree."

To have social value, you have to actually participate in social activities instead of staying home to escape.

At first, you will certainly encounter some difficulties, but you must learn to overcome these difficulties, when quantitative change leads to qualitative change, you will find that social activities are not so difficult.

The secret is not to go to extremes, not encounter a little frustration, and social contact with the outside world, people want to live a happy life, not to let the world around them all turn as they wish, but to train themselves to adapt to a variety of environments.
