According to a recent study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association, depression is associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and poor cardiovascular health, with people with perceived poor mental health having a significantly higher risk of heart problems .
The Johns Hopkins University research team analyzed the self-reported data of more than 500,000 adults aged 18-49 in the national representative survey in the United States from 2017 to 2020, including whether they had been told that they had depression, whether they had been told that they had depression, and whether they had been diagnosed with depression in the past month. The number of days of perceived poor mental health, etc.

Interaction between depression and cardiovascular disease
Zhan Jiazhen, Director of the General Psychiatry Department of Zhongxing Hospital of Beishi Lianyi Medical, said that many studies in the past have confirmed that depression and cardiovascular disease will affect each other. Not good, and it is easier to have unhealthy behaviors, such as smoking or too much static life, these are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, and may also directly cause heart damage through stress hormones or sympathetic excitement. Emphasis on mental health should be developed from an early age.
Ye Yaxin, director of the Dong Foundation Mental Health Center, said that this study mentioned that depression has a direct impact on heart disease. In fact, when you are depressed or have emotional disorders, it will increase stress hormones, cause inflammation, and have more bad habits. Consolation, like smoking and drinking, it is easy to smoke more fiercely and drink more, and it will lead to cardiovascular disease over time.
Chasing dramas to transfer negative emotions is not a waste at all
Maintaining mental health can help reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Ye Yaxin suggested that young people establish the habit of “emotional awareness” and “stress relief”. Anxiety or irritability may be a warning sign that life is overloaded with stress, and it is time to identify the source of stress.
Ye Yaxin reminded that in addition to listening to music and exercising, you might as well watch dramas to build up the habit of relieving stress. From the dramas, you can see different life styles. The play seems wasteful and sinful. If the situation continues to fail to improve and affects life, it is recommended to actively seek assistance from a professional physician or psychologist. ◇
