Alert to a new disease – sun show syndrome

There was a scene in the program hosted by Mr. Bole this morning: the father’s birthday, three children took pictures of the cake first, then took a group photo, and then were busy posting friends, leaving the old father hanging out to dry. As if overnight, people on the street neatly lowered their heads and stared at their phones. The friends circle has a variety of food family, selfie family, love family, health family, chicken soup family, mother and baby family, rumor family, seek praise family, as well as endless pampering stickers, scowl stickers, moaning stickers. A hundred flowers are blossoming and endless! It can be expected that in a few years, cervical spondylosis will be the first common disease. Along with this is a new disease – the sun show syndrome (Show syndrome) will come out of nowhere and quickly become popular. Out of professional habits, we are not only concerned about the emergence of SARS and MERS, but also about the prevalence of new mental illnesses, and Show Syndrome is one of them. It is normal for friends to meet and take pictures to commemorate the occasion; it is normal for people to share with friends when they encounter delicious food. But someone will sunshine a photo of food every day, all kinds of, almost non-stop, as if she eats out every day, and is not afraid to eat into the eight rings. In fact, what she sun is not food at all, but inexplicable feelings, is it showing off, lonely or seeking attention? It is not known. But for sure, she sunburnt herself suffering from a disease. According to a British newspaper, Dr Valerie Taylor, a leading psychiatrist and head of psychology at a women’s hospital, believes that people who like to show off their food online may be suffering from a mental illness. The expert said that the behavior of excessively recording three meals a day could possibly show that the person has an eating disorder. “Crazy about food is the pathological psychology of excessive attention to food.” We were hungry, someone must wait for the dishes to be served, to the dishes to a “family photo” before you can eat, the result is that the time to take the phone is longer than the time to take chopsticks; car accident scene, did not have time to take pictures, the injured were transported away, doubly regretful; when you have these impulses, you may be shot. In fact, showing off is a normal human psychological need, but excessive, almost paranoid, compulsive tendency to show off is a pathological state. As with other psychological disorders, it is difficult for people to become aware of it on their own. Back in 2010, when there was no WeChat, a survey by China Youth Daily showed that 86.7 percent of people were worried that online bragging would make the social climate fickle. Regarding the reason for showing off, 74.3% of people think it is vanity, 66.2% think “most of it is hype”, and 20.9% think it is related to the psychology of “seeking self-affirmation”. Experts believe that, first of all, from Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs theory, modern people do not worry about food and clothing, survival needs are satisfied, and hope to achieve higher-level needs. I hope to get attention, to meet the need to be respected; second, a person show off what often indicates what is missing inside. For example, a person with a brand-name bag or a new cell phone may lack self-confidence or have an empty mind and need to show off material things to enhance their value. Once again, people go through a stage of “other evaluation” during their early psychological growth, that is, they take the evaluation of their parents and teachers as their self-worth. This period of frustration is prone to the desperate desire for response and attention from others in adulthood. Showing off is a double-edged sword. Moderate showing off makes people more confident and physically and mentally happy; excessive showing off can lead to delusions and extremes. If you want to get out of the psychological circle of showing off, you have to wake up and not let the wrong value system formed when you were young replace the reality of life. Second, we must accept ourselves and learn to be satisfied. Look at what you have at the moment, more than many people are rich. Third, we must actively make up for the lack of things. Only those who are spiritually rich can attract the eyes and attention of everyone and gain true happiness. This pathological mentality inadvertently shows the shortcomings of others, while showing their own strengths. It is best to process your own pictures with Meituxiu before you take them out, while others’ are exempt, satisfying a voyeuristic and mocking desire. If someone is in trouble and not cute, then I really have to look at it differently. The American economist Tostan? Van Buren once pointed out that people shop to buy things is to show off to others, and called show-off consumption, whether to buy suits, or to buy cars, in short, is to show others to buy, which is also known as Van Buren theory. So why do you want to show off to others? The reason is simple, because it makes you feel comfortable, for example, when you find yourself living in an environment where you are ignored by others, if you buy a luxury car, it is likely to immediately attract the attention of others, and my psychological feelings before and after is also a world of difference. Whenever you change your makeup, change your hairstyle, upload your selfie, it is likely to make more people appreciate and recognize your performance, and this performance just reflects the “childishness of modern people”, that is, back to the psychological state of a child who wants to attract the attention of others, which in essence is no difference. As Mr. Wu Bofan said, in the past, clothes were used to cover shame and warmth and play the role of “barrier”, but now they are used to “highlight” themselves. Similarly, the function of a car is more to “manifest” oneself. From the perspective of Chinese medicine, this should be a kind of false fire upward performance, “the more deficient can not hold the fire”, the inner emptiness, often through the dress exposed to cover up and make up. Like a ship, the cargo is too light, equivalent to a kidney water deficiency, it will shift the center of gravity upward and easily sway unstable. To treat the sun show syndrome, it is still necessary to strengthen study and cultivation, so that you can fill up inside. Yesterday, I met with a chief in Taiqing Palace, the meeting room in a quiet courtyard, surrounded by ancient trees, quiet and chic. The Taoist priest is immortal, not sulking, talking about medicine, talking about the Tao, an invisible aura makes people forget the pomp and circumstance. A fickle mind comes here, will immediately think of shooting down, with friends in the circle of BMW, luxury bags, lobster than the high and low, while a quiet and tranquil mind, think this place is only suitable for reading, cultivating sex. The Analects of Confucius begins with the words “People do not know but do not feel bad, is not also a gentleman?” It seems that the ancestors 2500 years ago already predicted that today’s sun show syndrome would be popular. I was surprised, but I felt ashamed.
