    Jung, a famous Swiss psychologist and founder of analytical psychology, once said, "character decides fate" This warning also makes future generations start to study character and find that it will really affect our hobbies, career choices, types of friends and so on Recently, the daily mail pointed out that personality not only affects our behavior, but also determines our health Among all the secrets of longevity, good personality is one of the indispensable factors Maybe we can't change our character, but we can understand ourselves and avoid the weakness of character Too much optimism leads to early death Optimism has two sides On the one hand, optimistic and optimistic mood can reduce the incidence rate But on the other hand, the over optimistic people tend to ignore the physical and mental problems, and think that they are strong enough to "have no disease", and they will mistakenly understand their own physical conditions, so the treatment is not timely Researchers from Japan's gay society University found that the more optimistic people are, the less successful they are in losing weight Because optimists always see the positive and promising side, they are not very concerned about their weight Similarly, optimists are very confident in their ability to overcome difficulties and diseases This also explains the research results of the University of California in the United States People who are too optimistic and cheerful tend to die young Therefore, people who are naturally optimistic must pay more attention to the disease signals sent by the body, and establish the awareness that disease is inevitable and unpredictable Anxious people should protect their stomach Researchers from the University of Descartes in Paris and the center for drug addiction and mental health in Toronto found that anxiety, dependence, emotional instability and other characteristics can promote people to smoke and drink, which can relieve their inner uneasiness People with this personality often have irregular eating habits, sleep disorders and other problems, which will lead to the production of higher than normal gastric acid in their body, and even cause gastric ulcer in serious cases Anxiety should be adjusted according to the situation Excessive anxiety is a kind of disease, which needs timely treatment after suffering from anxiety Mild anxiety is normal, many external factors will lead to short-term anxiety, such as college entrance examination near and so on At this time, you should actively adjust your mind, talk to your friends, or take part in some activities to divert your attention The irritable type should be careful of cancer Anger is a kind of basic emotion and self-defense, but excessive anger, irritability or impulsivity indicate that people's inhibition ability is poor, which is the most unhealthy character A hospital in Athens found that of the 448 women who took part in breast cancer tests, the irritable were more likely to be diagnosed with breast cancer Research from the University of Clayton School of medicine also confirmed that irritable men have a high proportion of colon cancer Researchers believe that hostility and anger inhibit the effectiveness of the immune system, making them more susceptible to disease In addition, researchers at Mount Sinai Medical School in New York have shown that angry people respond faster and more strongly to stress, which increases their blood pressure, heart rate, and the risk of heart disease by 50% Therefore, irritable people should know more about their rage points and try to avoid them If you are angry, you should actively conduct psychological counseling Shy people are at high risk of stroke Shy people generally have less mood swings, which is actually not good for the body, because sometimes releasing emotions can play a role in venting A 30-year study at Northwestern University in Chicago found that shy people are 50 percent more likely to have a heart attack or stroke This may be because they are often in a state of resistance, unable to adjust quickly with changes in foreign countries, and will bear greater pressure once they encounter new situations In addition, the University of California research shows that shy people are also more susceptible to the virus This is because introverted human lymphocytes are less active, so the immune system is poor In fact, shyness is the expression of lack of self-confidence, which means that one's social communication ability is not enough Therefore, we should strengthen exercise in this area and overcome the anxiety and uneasiness in front of the public Sensitive people live longer Women are generally more sensitive than men, which is also a big reason for women's longevity, because they are good at expressing their emotions and will seek support in case of problems A study from the University of Glasgow found that if men have some characteristics of women, their life pressure will be relatively low and their risk of heart disease will be reduced This may be because such men are more likely to talk about their feelings with others, and will ask for help when they need it, rather than supporting themselves in silence, and will also ask for help from doctors when they are not feeling well However, when you talk, you should master a certain degree If you can bear something, you should resolve it first Don't talk about everything Complain all day long People with a sense of responsibility are less ill Researchers from the University of Edinburgh and the Glasgow Joint Centre for social and public health found that this type of person is in better health They are less likely to suffer from various diseases, such as diabetes More than 190 studies have shown that people with a sense of responsibility will continue to exercise, eat healthy and other health care behaviors Although "responsible" is a valuable quality, many people with a strong sense of responsibility love to take care of everything and often feel that they have more than enough heart and less power There are also many people who put a sense of responsibility into their work at the expense of their health In fact, we should cultivate a kind of consciousness, that is, to be responsible for the individual and health first, in order to work in a better state.
