< p> "Health punk" is a common buzzword on the Internet. It is a health attitude of contemporary young people that reflects their uniqueness and sense of self-superiority, as well as self-deprecation and self-deprecation. It is a lifestyle that is both exciting and depressing. To put it more bluntly, it is "NO ZUO NO DIE I" CAN TRY” is a very unhealthy regimen. However, do you think that today’s health punk is still as simple as “adding a few wolfberries to beer and ginseng to Coke” as written in Baidu Encyclopedia? NONONO, times are developing and society is progressing. Of course, there must be more and more types of health punks. Only a boring life will be happy!

The term "health punk" first appeared in April 2017. Netizen @MoMohan posted an update on the social platform - I smoked one with my sister. I smoked a cigarette and quickly sucked a lozenge into my mouth. We committed suicide while maintaining our health like crazy. Since then, the term "health punk" has spread wildly on the Internet.

Sichuan clam and loquat cocktail, sugar-free Sprite and cucumber juice, are you a little confused about the punk-style health regimen? There was a joke circulating on the Internet many years ago that smoking a cigarette will shorten your life by 5 seconds, and smiling will add 5 seconds to your life, so I always smile when I smoke.

When people were still laughing at the thought of "wearing baby warmers in ripped pants" and "eating only red date-flavored ice cream during menstruation" as dangerous, they found that these examples had already been integrated into their own lives. When eating instant noodles, I would add two eggs and a portion of pork liver because I was afraid that it would be nutritious. When drinking cola, I would worry about high blood sugar, so I would add half a lemon (a fast food brand has even released such a drink to adapt to the market). When I have diarrhea, I take Xie Li Ting with me. Put some jelly in front of the barbecue or hot pot, and have a cup of herbal tea after eating... Touch your conscience and say, do you really feel that you are not included in this? Junk food one second, vitamins the next, studying health books until four o'clock in the morning, do you feel like you can live to be ninety-nine?

Ask the bartender at the bar what can be added to a glass of whiskey? Add me on WeChat? Of course not, add wolfberry! As a health-preserving girl who adds red dates to black coffee, drinks tartary buckwheat in KTV, soaks up club plasters, and pours the best anti-hair loss shampoo while staying up late, how can I afford a face mask so expensive that it vomits blood if I don’t strive to be the most beautiful punk queen? When you go out to get high at night on a bitingly cold night, be sure to hold a thermos filled with liquor tightly, it’s simply swag!

(Friendly reminder: The above "seeking death" method is absolutely not advisable!)

For health punks, every fish is Koi, every bird is a magpie. A life with a "sense of ritual" at least gives me inner satisfaction and comfort. I can check my pulse from time to time to see if I am still alive and well. This lifestyle of excitement and depression reflects the uneasiness and anxiety of modern people's lives. Medical science points out that more and more diseases have become "younger". Problems such as hair loss, insomnia, cervical spondylosis, and back pain that trouble middle-aged people have long been transferred to young people. More and more young people are making fun of themselves. Entering the "mid-life crisis", under the arrogant self-deprecation, what is hidden is the anxiety, panic and helplessness of this group.

From this, we unconsciously think of "mourning culture".

Mourning culture refers to a group of people who have no pursuits, emotions, or desires. In their world, "waste" is often the truest portrayal. It reflects the spiritual characteristics and collective anxiety of young people in contemporary society. The most familiar one is the "Ge You Paralysis" that was very popular some time ago. The self-deprecating statement "I'm almost a useless person" directly describes the inner thoughts of this group.

Is punk-style health care a type of mourning culture?

Or perhaps, punk-style health care is an advancement of mourning culture. At least, it's taken action.

Not long ago, Liang Yongan, professor of the Chinese Department of Fudan University, told such a story in a speech: In the 1990s, a Korean student once talked to him about a phenomenon: people used to not like it. I always feel that the emotional illness conveyed in Japanese music and movies is uncomfortable, but now, everyone likes it, because in these years, the development of cities and changes in survival have made people fully experience loneliness and sadness. and wandering.

With the development of the economy, people are increasingly unable to keep up with the pace of society. One second they were talking about their job ideals, and the next they started buying houses and cars. "Transition" is no longer applicable to modern times. The pace of life for young people. Loneliness, anxiety, and powerlessness have become emotional labels for young people. Everyone knows the truth and consequences of "NO ZUO NO DIE", but just because health punks don't want to face this reality, they have reasons and excuses like "punk-style health maintenance" to find psychological comfort for themselves.

Fortunately, even though many young people like to live a "mourning" life, "mourning" is not the same as negative energy. It is just a manifestation of an attitude towards life, and the "mourning" derived from it "Punk style health care" is also a way of self-deprecation and decompression. What’s more worthy of everyone’s attention is that no matter how you try to commit suicide, your body can only be your own. Only by walking towards a healthy life can we stay young forever and have tears in our eyes forever.
