Ugh! Reborn in 2000, I'm being pampered by a powerful figure!

"I also heard from a friend who studies medicine that there is something called smiling depression."

Cen Li explained to everyone, "This type of patient usually smiles in front of others due to work, self-esteem, etiquette, etc., and only shows depression-related symptoms such as loss and pain when they are alone or facing close people. It is more common in people with high income, high education, and high status."

"If that's the case, it really suits your Aunt Lin..."

After listening to this, Cai Hongming looked at Lin Tong and said, "Wife, tell me the truth, have you ever had any thoughts of committing suicide recently?"

Lin Tong hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and said, "Yes, I've been having a lot of problems lately, and I tend to have wild thoughts, and then I feel like life is meaningless, but I usually feel better the next day after I wake up."

"Oh, how could you think like that!"

Grandma Cai was so anxious that her eyes turned red. She held Lin Tong's hand and said, "My child, you are so good. If something happens to you, what will we do?"

Lin Tong's heart ached and her eyes became moist. "Mother-in-law, I don't know why. You are all very kind to me, but I always feel like no one cares about me. I feel helpless and lonely..."

"Silly child, we love you so much, how could you think like this?" Grandma Cai wiped Lin Tong's tears with heartache.

Lin Tong choked up and shook her head, "Yes, my family is very kind to me. I don't know why I think that."

"Aunt Lin, this is all caused by depression." At this time, Cen Li said, "When depression strikes, you will be trapped in your own emotions and it is difficult to think of positive things. You will often be suspicious and think that you have a terminal illness or something like that."

"Yes, yes, yes. I've been having headaches, rapid heartbeats, and difficulty breathing recently. I've been to the hospital several times, but they couldn't find anything." Lin Tong said quickly.

"If that's the case, Auntie, you've begun to show somatic symptoms, and the situation is not mild. My advice is to seek medical attention as soon as possible." Cen Li said with a serious expression.

"Don't worry, we will definitely go see a doctor." Cai Hongming said quickly, "Hey, depression is really rare. We don't know anything about it. If you hadn't reminded us, we wouldn't have thought about it at all."

Lin Tong also nodded and said, "Yes, I am not afraid of seeing a doctor. If there is a problem, I will go for a check-up. But who would have thought that it was a mental problem."

Cen Li also knew about this problem.

The topic of depression did not attract much attention when she died in her previous life. Many people thought that it was just a bad mood or a pretentious personality.

But they don’t know that this is a mental illness, not a simple emotional problem.

Therefore, many people who lack awareness gradually develop severe depression, which is even more difficult to treat.

If depression can be treated before it becomes serious, there is a high chance of being cured.

"Xiao Li, thank you uncle, but now I plan to take your aunt to see a doctor first."

Cai Hongming said, pulling Lin Tong to stand up, "When you are free another day, uncle will treat you to a meal and thank you very much."

"You're welcome, uncle. You've helped me a lot. It's my duty." Cen Li quickly waved her hand.

“I didn’t expect it to be this disease.”

After everyone left, Grandma Cai said worriedly, "Xiao Li, is this disease easy to cure? Tongtong is so pitiful. She hasn't even recovered from the childbirth issue, and now she's got another disease!" (End of this chapter)
