Importance Of Showering And Grooming

Register to read the introduction… When a person has an unkept appearance on the outside, it may mean they have a very unkept mood also (d-6). Showering and grooming are good indications as to a person's inner mood. People who feel worse will typically not take as much care to look nice because do not feel nice. Social withdrawal is when a person would rather stay in and be alone rather than go out and be social (d-4). The real problem when it comes to depression is getting the motivation to go out and be around people even when people are not wanted. If a person wants to be alone that could be an indication they do not want to be seen by others because they feel poorly. Frequent tearfulness can be a sign of sadness (d5).

Self-mutilation is not typically to end the person’s life, but to relieve pain and suffering; unfortunately it can result in death as well (b-4). Mutilation is much more prevalent because anyone can do it with very little planning and minimal impact. 55% of suicides are impulsive, 28% immediate level of impulse, 17% non-impulsive from a study of 478 attempted suicide victims (I-10).
