A clinic has opened in China that helps people who don't want to go to work

A clinic has opened in China to help people who don't want to go to work, reports South China Morning Post.

In an attempt to help adults suffering from professional burnout, anxiety, and work-related depression, a clinic called "I Don't Like Going to Work" has opened in northern China. The initiative has already caused widespread public resonance. It became a logical continuation of the existing program "I Don't Like Going to School," which helps children and teenagers experiencing emotional resistance to the educational process.

The idea for the new clinic came from parents who had previously sought help for school maladaptation in children and wondered if similar support existed for adults suffering from reluctance to go to work.

Diagnosis of patients who come to the clinic includes an in-depth interview to assess the patient's emotional state, as well as a physical examination to rule out organic causes of symptoms - such as hyperthyroidism. After this, specialists develop an individualized treatment plan, which may include consultations, therapy, and, if necessary, medication support.

Despite widespread public interest and discussion on social media, the number of patients who have turned to the clinic remains low so far.
