Trigeminal neuralgia not only brings physical pain to patients, but also makes patients mentally tormented. Many patients with trigeminal neuralgia are in fear of painful attacks every day and cannot live a normal life, and some patients even have the idea of living lightly. Therefore, paying attention to patients’ psychological health, guiding them to understand the disease correctly and helping them to establish confidence in overcoming the disease is an important guarantee to let trigeminal neuralgia recover. Patients with trigeminal neuralgia need to adapt to the psychology of recovery and establish confidence in life. Some recovered trigeminal neuralgia patients are still suspicious and withdrawn, because they are afraid of pain and always worry about the disease coming back again, so they are sensitive to very subtle facial abnormal sensations, and when they go out, they still retain the habit of wearing headscarf and mask regardless of the weather conditions, and some patients even dare not go out for fear of being blown by the wind to trigger trigeminal neuralgia again. All these phenomena indicate that the shadow of the disease has not been completely dispersed and the patient has not fully recovered from the psychological trauma caused by the previous pain. If these conditions occur in patients recovering from trigeminal neuralgia, they should be actively treated by a psychiatrist. Patients recovering from trigeminal neuralgia can distract themselves through their favorite hobbies or some appropriate sports, or they can spend most of their energy on work or housework, and try to adjust their mindset and gradually establish a healthy and optimistic confidence in life.
