In China, after receiving reprimands from her bosses, a 20-year-old woman soon stopped eating, drinking, and moving. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
The South China Morning Post, citing local media, reported on this case. Doctors diagnosed Lida with a psychopathological disorder called catatonic stupor.
This illness is characterized by disturbances in movement, behavior, and speech, and often occurs against the background of severe depression or other mental illnesses. Over the course of a month, the girl's condition gradually worsened.
She stopped speaking, moving independently, eating, and drinking. Relatives had to remind her to go to the toilet.
According to doctors, even before the incident, Li had a reserved personality, which made it difficult for her to express her feelings and ask for help. Stressful situations at work further deteriorated her condition.
According to a study by the Chinese Psychological Society, approximately 4.8% of workers in the country suffer from work-related depression. Additionally, 80% of employees report stress and strain, and 60% experience anxiety.
Moreover, the overall unemployment rate in China is high, and the government has launched a program to support youth employment. However, many young people face difficulties in finding jobs.
For this reason, some do not want to quit their jobs despite excessive working hours and workload.
