As he said this, Li Minglu shrank back.
Nan Zhubin's eyes narrowed.
At the same time, a word flashed in his mind — [Inadequacy].
[Inadequacy] is a significant symptom of depression, where a patient feels unworthy of others' care, leading to guilt, which worsens the condition.
It's often said not to indiscriminately show care to depression patients, and this is an important reason.
Due to this [Inadequacy], people often react in two ways:
First, they build a strong defense mechanism, rejecting any help from others.
Second, they overly give to others, allowing themselves to be depleted more than they gain, to lessen the unease of receiving help.
But Li Minglu's [Inadequacy] seemed too intense at this moment.
Faced with Nan Zhubin's consultation, Li Minglu was overly cooperative, even proactively extending the effort in various ways.
It seemed like he considered Nan Zhubin's consultation as another form of "help" he was undeserving of.
