The most desperate man can be described by a number of specific characteristics that reflect his extreme state of need and hopelessness:
Emotional
Extreme anxiety: The person feels constant and intense fear, without always being able to identify its precise source.
Panic: Experiences frequent panic attacks, accompanied by palpitations, sweating and suffocation.
Deep depression: Feeling overwhelmed by sadness and hopelessness, often having suicidal thoughts.
Anger and irritability: Reacts violently or angrily to the slightest provocation, unable to control his emotions.
Behavioral
Impulsivity: Makes quick and risky decisions without thinking about the consequences, for example large spending or acts of self-harm.
Social isolation: Avoids contact with friends and family, preferring to be alone most of the time.
Begging or Stealing: Goes to desperate measures to obtain resources, such as begging or stealing.
Neglect of personal appearance: He no longer cares about personal hygiene or physical appearance, being immersed in his own despair.
Cognition
Negative Thinking: Has a predominantly negative thinking style, seeing only the bad side of things and always expecting the worst.
Lack of concentration: He finds it very difficult to focus on tasks or conversations, often being distracted and absent-minded.
Illusion of control: He believes that he cannot change anything in his life and that everything is destined to go wrong.
Body
Chronic fatigue: Feeling constantly exhausted, regardless of how much sleep you get.
Health problems: Suffers from various physical ailments caused by stress, such as headaches, digestive disorders or high blood pressure.
Weight loss or gain: Drastic changes in weight, either due to lack of appetite or compulsive eating.
Social interactions
Dependent behavior: Relying excessively on others for emotional support and help, unable to function independently.
Frequent conflicts: He often quarrels with those around him, unable to maintain stable and healthy relationships.
Concrete examples:
An individual who has lost his job: and cannot find another source of income, ending up losing his home as well.
A person with a serious illness: who cannot afford the necessary treatment and feels they have nowhere to turn for help.
A refugee: who has lost his family and everything as a result of a conflict and lives in precarious conditions with no clear prospects for improvement.
So extreme despair is manifested by a combination of emotional, behavioral, cognitive, and physical symptoms, all interconnected and mutually reinforcing, leading to profound helplessness and impulsive and dangerous actions. With love...
