The feeling of psychological support for oncology patients (I)

Recently, I have been working on psychological assessment, psychometric, psychological diagnosis and psychological intervention for oncology patients. I have also gained a deeper understanding of life and living. Many people take it for granted that people who have cancer must be pessimistic and desperate; or tear their hearts out and cry in pain. It is true that most patients may have such a very low period of time, but I have interviewed dozens of friends who are under treatment, and the peace and calmness they give me is beyond what I originally imagined. Xu Fushan, Mental Health Center, Harbin First Specialty Hospital Most of my patients are foreigners, some from Southeast Asia, some from the Arab world, and even more from Western Europe, North America and Australia. But the largest number and the most suitable for psychological work are the Chinese people from the South Seas. I found in them a lot of good qualities that can only be found in textbooks or historical novels. And those are the character requirements that we used to be proud of, which are now almost invisible in our national people. They are, first of all, very courteous, always smiling when interacting with doctors, speaking softly, never shouting They express a trust that is rarely found, carry out the instructions of doctors and nursing staff carefully, with little disagreement, and the patient will do as much as possible to fulfill the various requests. Most importantly, they take great care to avoid hurting others in their words. Once I talked to a Malaysian Chinese patient and had such a good conversation that we all burst into tears of laughter. They said they never knew that the verbal expressions of men in northern China were so funny and amusing. They said they had never known that men’s expressions in northern China were so funny. So when they accidentally revealed their complaints about a certain health care worker, all of them immediately stopped, including the patient himself, who kept saying, “Ya, ya, ya, ya, you can’t say sorry things about others.” This made a deep impression on me. In fact, according to our current value standards in China, her complaint was more than justified. But the Chinese people I met were like this, very restrained themselves, very polite. At first I thought it was just an isolated case, then at one time I thought they were all rich, or highly educated, or high-ranking officials, or whatever several second and third generations. Then I gradually learned that they were housewives, fishermen, stall operators, florist employees, mining and plantation workers, and so on. I was deeply shocked. Again, most of the patients in this institution had a strong sense of hope. And were working in peace, frustration had very little effect on them, perhaps because they had experienced so much? Or maybe they possess some nature that we are less familiar with. I have to take my time to experience it.
