[00:08.88]On Depression on Campus
[00:12.47]In recent years,
[00:13.68]depression has become the biggest mental disease
[00:17.02]among college students.
[00:19.42]Every year quite a few students who feel severely depressed
[00:23.70]just like the man in the picture are reported to commit suicide.
[00:28.34]Among the reasons that lead to depression,
[00:31.21]the pressure of interpersonal relationship comes first.
[00:35.41]Breaking up with boyfriends or girlfriends
[00:38.04]and conflicts with the mentor always make college students blue.
[00:43.12]The second reason is the stress of study.
[00:47.27]Many students feel that the study burden imposed on them
[00:51.31]exceeds their limit and thus sink into a deep depression.
[00:56.68]Besides,
[00:58.02]employment pressure and a sense of inferiority
[01:01.29]are also important reasons.
[01:04.62]To reduce the depression on campus,
[01:07.30]universities should adopt precautionary measures
[01:10.85]such as promoting psychological education
[01:13.86]and reducing students' study burden.
[01:17.31]Parents should care more for their children
[01:19.78]and provide them with emotional support
[01:22.13]when they get frustrated.
[01:24.07]Above all,
[01:25.17]college students should learn to adjust their mood
[01:28.41]and try doing something to cheer themselves up.
[01:31.76]With due efforts from these three parties,
[01:35.44]I believe,
[01:36.54]things will certainly make a change for the better.
