”From the clinical consultations, the number of adolescents suffering from mental illness in Zhaoqing has been rising in the past few years, with an estimated 10 percent increase.” Xie Jiangchuan, deputy director of the psychiatric outpatient department of the city’s three hospitals, told reporters that he believes the reason for the increase in adolescent patients is, on the one hand, because people are paying more attention to adolescent mental or psychological disorders, and on the other hand, adolescents are under more mental pressure after changes in the social environment, which is also an important factor, and when adult pressure gathers in the family, vulnerable and sensitive adolescents may become these pressure victims. October 10 is World Mental Health Day and this was investigated by the reporter. Case study – 19-year-old teenager suffers from depression. Since September, other children have been going to school, while Xiaodong (a pseudonym) is still accompanied by his father to the hospital every day. ”What my son is suffering from is depression.” From the face of Xiaodong’s father, anyone can see his concern, no one would doubt his infinite love for his child, but now, he has no ability to make 19-year-old Xiaodong happy and has to leave it to the psychiatrist. ”You didn’t even tell me before you put me in the hospital.” Xiaodong still holds a grudge against his father’s behavior, but Xiaodong’s father has a hard time saying: “If we discuss with him, he will definitely not go, but hospitalization is what works well. The conditions there are certainly not as good as home, I can not let go, just a few days to go to his birthday, but also specially bought him a cake.” From the beginning of Xiaodong’s illness in 2007 to now, Dad has aged a lot, but he still does not give up hope, taking Xiaodong everywhere for treatment. “As long as there is even a little benefit to him, I take him to, after he was discharged this year, I heard from others that there is a monastery in the provinces where people can live for 7 days, especially effective for people suffering from mental illness, so I took him to live for 8 days.” When the reporter saw Xiaodong and Xiaodong’s father again, the father was planning to send Xiaodong to school in Guangzhou. “He likes to go to school, I want to wait until after the military training, try to see if he can adapt to school.” Dad stayed with Xiaodong at the school for several nights to let him get used to his new environment and to do his laundry, yet within a few days of Xiaodong’s dad’s return, Xiaodong called and said it was hard, “I want you to pick me up and come back.” After consulting with a psychiatrist, the dad had to pick up Xiaodong back in Zhaoqing, “I can’t put too much pressure on the child,” and he expected the child to be able to go to school again after taking some time off, yet the psychiatrist told him that Xiaodong’s situation was very bleak. “The parents found the problem too late and need longer follow-up treatment.” Why did Xiaodong get depressed? Xiaodong told reporters that when he was in elementary school, because he had moved once, his home became far from school, and his good friends were fewer, “at that time, my father was too busy to send me to school, I was often late, and once I was punished for being late, and slowly I began to have an aversion to school. But my parents do not understand my worries, accusing me a lot.” Xiaodong’s father told reporters that Xiaodong’s mother has high demands on Xiaodong. “I’m busy at work and rarely take into account his emotions, his academic performance when he was in junior high school was already very poor, I thought about taking him to a psychologist, but I didn’t know where to go.” The seeds of emotional problems were planted when he started hitting people and smashing things in 2007, and his father realized the seriousness of the problem. Families should be more supportive and less accusatory! ”Children with mental or psychological problems, in addition to the pressure to go on to higher education, most often have family functioning problems, and the bad emotions generated by parents due to economic pressure, emotional problems, etc. eventually transfer or spill over to the child, allowing the child to prematurely experience anxiety and frustration.” Xie Jiang said, deputy director of the psychiatric outpatient department of the city’s three hospitals, children with psychological problems should be detected early so that the treatment can be effective. Why do some students have psychological disorders after being stimulated? Luo Jingbin, a professor of medical psychology at the College of Education of Zhaoqing College, said that the population income distribution in developed countries is said to be a perfect date nucleus type, with the poorest and richest populations occupying its two ends, respectively, while the middle is mostly middle class. Similarly we can look at it this way, some people have a weak psychological condition and some people are very strong, they are at the two ends of the date nucleus. Most people have a moderate psychological condition and belong to the “middle class”, living in the middle of the date palm. ”So parents and teachers should pay more attention to these children with poor psychological conditions, pay special attention to communication and ways to get along with them, use more positive language to interact with them, see more of their strengths, and give them more psychological support instead of blaming them.” Luo Jingbin said. The school “comfort bar” is gradually being established. ”Comfort Bar”, “Know Your Heart Hut” ……, such a romantic and warm words, in fact, is the name given by students to the school’s counseling room. When you have stress, worry, or even aggression, students go to the counseling room and talk to the psychology teacher, and after the depression is released, you walk out the door with a smile of joy on your face! Cartoon background wall, warm sofa, cute doll …… It is reported that, as of now, 80% of the city’s schools have established such a counseling room. On September 4 this year, the psychology teacher Zhang Xiaomei of Songde Middle School walked on the podium, this day means that the students of Songde Middle School have a psychology class as well as a psychology teacher, “I can see that the students are very interested in this subject.” Zhang Xiaomei told reporters. The mental health education system of the city’s educational institutions is gradually being established. The person in charge of the moral education section of the city’s Education Bureau introduced that the psychological counseling room in each school will be built in accordance with the national standard for school psychological counseling rooms: an office, a set of desks and chairs, a computer, a set of cute little sofas as well as matching coffee tables. Almost all primary and secondary schools in the city currently offer mental health classes. Luo Jingbin said, “Create a campus culture, which can be in the form of radio, psychological mailbox, QQ guidance group, handwritten newspaper and so on. Parents also need to pay attention to their children’s mental health and how they communicate, and families and schools need to link up.” The effect – the child has a place to relax. By visiting primary and secondary schools in the city, this reporter found that the main problems faced by primary and secondary school students include: aversion to school, dealing with interpersonal relationships, tension with parents, lack of self-confidence and so on. There are also some children have family brought them troubles, such as parental divorce. Sand Lake Elementary School principal told reporters, “half of our school children’s parents are migrant workers, parents make money busy work, less care for children, these children we will take special care of, encourage them to make more friends, for the anorexic children we will let them feel the joy of learning, while gratitude education, basically these children are no big worries. “ Experimental elementary school moral education department teacher told reporters, senior children will be relatively more trouble, especially the graduating class of children have the pressure of further education. “Shuxin bar gives the child a place to relax, in the classroom is not convenient to speak of things they are generally willing to speak in Shuxin bar, although some children will still be through the way to write a note.” Related news: World Mental Health Day campaign – Mental health of the elderly should not be ignored. ”Most of those who come to see a psychiatrist or learn about mental health are young adults, and too little attention has been paid to the mental health of the elderly.” On October 10, the city’s three hospitals held “World Mental Health Day” publicity activities at the Songcheng Wall Qingfeng Altar. ”It’s not that there are fewer elderly people suffering from mental illness, but that their families don’t pay attention to them, and the elderly themselves don’t know how to adjust and improve their living conditions.” Chen Yi Chen Yi, an attending physician at the hospital’s geriatric department, said that groups of elderly people who are empty nesters, live alone, have few social activities and no hobbies are most likely to suffer from dementia and geriatric depression, two types of geriatric mental illnesses. She said that according to a survey in some areas of China, the prevalence of dementia among people aged 60 and above is 4.2 percent, while the prevalence of depression among people aged 65 and above in Beijing is 4.4 percent. Chen Yi suggested that family members should pay attention to giving them a harmonious family environment in addition to caring for the physical disorders of the elderly. The elderly themselves should also actively deal with the physical and mental changes that accompany aging, participate in more social activities, establish new interpersonal circles, and seek early medical attention in the event of significant memory loss and reduced ability to live and work in the short term.
