When I think about it now, I wonder why my mental and immunity was so weak when there were signs of depression at that time.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

I talk about how easy it is to catch a cold if you have been depressed<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\r\n

I understand that people who are depressed are more likely to have a cold or other illness, but even if they don’t have depression now, even if they have had depression in the past, it may be dangerous. ..<\/span><\/p>\r\n

A study at Aarhus University in Denmark investigated the association between depression and the risk of various infectious diseases.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\r\n

From a prospective population-based study of 973,398 people, 142,169 patients who experienced depression between 1995 and 2012 were investigated in association with the Danish registry.\u00a0Survival analysis was used to estimate the relative risk of infection in depressed patients, adjusted for gender and age, and compared to non-depressed individuals.<\/span><\/p>\r\ncarenet<\/span><\/cite><\/blockquote>\r\n

What kind of infectious disease do you have with a prognosis by comparing people with and without a history of depression according to age and gender?\u00a0It means that you investigated that.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Since the number of surveys is 142,169, which far exceeds the number of samples in a normal survey, you can expect considerable reliability.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

And the result is<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Depression was associated with a widespread increased risk of infection.<\/span>
The overall increased risk of infection after the onset of depression remained elevated from the first year after the onset to more than 11 years thereafter.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\r\n

And that.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

As you\u00a0<\/span>can see, the risk of getting various infectious diseases increases when you<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0get\u00a0depressed, and the increased risk increases even after many years after the onset of depression<\/strong>\u00a0.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

There is also a study on the relationship between the virus and depression in the United States<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\r\n

Introduced that depression and viral infections were being investigated in the United States.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

A study at Brigham Young University investigated the relationship between viral infections and depression.<\/span>
Roughly speaking<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\r\n

Hepatitis A, hepatitis B, herpes simplex virus type 1, herpes simplex virus type 2, human immunodeficiency virus, and cytomegalovirus were evaluated for the association between depression and viral infection in American adults. ..<\/span><\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

So, the main results are as follows.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Herpes simplex virus type 2 was associated with an increased risk of depression.<\/span>
-Hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and herpes simplex virus type 1 are not associated.<\/span>
Cytomegalovirus was associated with depression in some patients.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Since it is a relevance survey, it includes not only that you may get infected if you get depressed, but also that if you get infected, you may increase your risk of getting\u00a0<\/span>depressed, but there is no virus that causes depression<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0. Yeah.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Looking at the results, the researchers conclude that “herpes simplex virus type 2” and “cytomegalovirus” have some relationship with depression, but conversely hepatitis A, hepatitis B, herpes simplex virus 1 I didn’t find any relevance for the type, so I wonder what it would be like to evaluate this.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Since the US survey is limited to serious infectious diseases, it cannot be simply compared with the Danish survey because it has not been investigated for mild infectious diseases such as “cold”.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

I don’t know what kind of virus or fungus I was infected with in the Danish survey, but I think that it includes serious illnesses because it is generally called “infectious disease”.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Well, depression often leads to mental illness and weakened immunity, and the risk of recurrence even after depression is in remission means that there are mental ups and downs, so there are also immunity ups and downs. I wonder if that is the case.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

If you have a history of depression, you may think it’s okay now.<\/span><\/strong>
Make sure to prevent colds by washing your hands, masking when cleaning, and keeping your body clean.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\r\n

Well, even healthy people should be able to prevent it!\u00a0It’s a story, but people with depression should be more careful.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

By the way, I haven’t washed my hands every day for 19 years since my child was born, but I still get colds quite often.\u00a0\uff3f | \uffe3 | \u25cb<\/span><\/p>\r\n

That’s why I think it’s easy to catch a cold when you’re mentally weak due to depression, so I’ll show you how to train your mental health.<\/span>
