  As the final bell of the college entrance examination rings, the nervous college entrance examination finally comes to an end, for many candidates, finally ushered in their own “liberation” moment, long tense nerves in this moment to relax. But some students will soon enter another state, repeatedly recalling the gains and losses of each exam, with excitement, satisfaction, regret, self-doubt, depression. Some information shows that from the end of the college entrance examination to the release of the list, the proportion of candidates with psychological problems is no less than before the entrance examination. Especially, the two weeks after the college entrance examination is the period of high incidence of psychological problems. Therefore, it is necessary for every candidate to make positive psychological adjustment, and parents need to pay enough attention and give reasonable guidance to the next mental health of their children.  So, what are the common psychological problems that can occur after the college entrance exam? And how to adjust it? As parents, how to help their children smoothly through this special period? Next, we will talk about some common psychological problems and adjustment techniques after the college entrance examination, hoping to help friends and parents of candidates.  1, carnival, indulgence psychology For many candidates, the end of the college entrance examination means “liberation”, think should be suppressed for many years of pressure all released, many parents also from the examination before the “strict control” to “regardless Many parents also changed from “strict control” before the exam to “no matter”. Therefore, once the college entrance examination is over, they “indulge” themselves and start to surf the Internet and party around the clock without restraint, and some candidates even drink heavily, breaking all the rules of life and hurting their minds and bodies.  For candidates in this state of mind, a more reasonable way to regulate is to relax moderately, but not indulge. You can do a suitable, step-by-step plan to reduce stress and relax with your parents or classmates. For example, you can arrange time to play ball, hiking, or arrange a short trip, or develop a specialty according to your interests, such as learning to swim, play tennis, piano, etc. You can take advantage of this time to compensate for the fact that you don’t have time to take care of your interests in order to deal with the college entrance exams, which not only enriches your life reasonably, but also satisfies your interests. Parents should also reasonably guide the relaxation arrangements of the candidates, not “regardless”, not to “indulge”, to grasp the “degree”, to reasonably participate in it, both to give children a certain space The family should also arrange some family activities to understand their psychological dynamics immediately and give the necessary psychological support.  2, depression, depression psychology Some candidates usually have been relatively stable academic performance, the usual bottom exam is also good, the expectations of the college entrance examination is relatively high. However, they may be nervous during the college entrance examination, which may lead to malfunction, or they may estimate that their examination results are not satisfactory, and after the examination, they are depressed, and they are not willing to communicate with their classmates and teachers, or even with their parents, and they lock themselves up at home all day and do not go anywhere. Candidates in a depressed state mainly show that they can’t eat well, can’t sleep well, are depressed and can’t be happy, and some of them also sigh, blame themselves and cry. Some people may even suddenly become irritable, making it difficult to understand, and their emotions may easily flare up when communicating with their families, and in serious cases, they may have light thoughts or even take light actions.  For this type of candidates, it is important to look at the college entrance examination rationally and comprehensively. It is indeed a happy thing to be able to enter an institution of higher learning, but going to university is not the only way to succeed. If you don’t succeed in the college entrance examination, it doesn’t mean you are not as good as others. The college entrance exam can only be a test of one’s ability in certain areas, not a reflection of all abilities. What’s more, if you don’t succeed in the college entrance examination, there is no hope for you in the future. At the same time, candidates should also face the reality rationally. This includes two aspects, the first is to recognize that the college entrance examination has been completed, the results are the combined results of their own cultural level, psychological quality, and clinical play and other factors, regardless of the final result, we must accept this reality. The second is not to care too much about the views of others. Learn to take the initiative to communicate with others, express your negative emotions, and maintain communication with your parents, family and friends. Moderate inner self-exposure is a good way to vent negative emotions. In case you fail in the college entrance examination, you should also keep a cool head and stable emotions, and you can make future plans according to your ability, specialties, interests and family situation. If the results are good, the family economic conditions allow, you can repeat the examination, the next year is likely to become a late blooming “flowers”; can also work in the future and then participate in the adult college entrance examination; or learn from teachers, business, etc.. Perhaps, the road to the college entrance examination is not smooth, but may give you the opportunity to “blossom” on another day, the loss of the college entrance examination has finally become a “good thing”.  3, torment, anxiety psychology Some candidates have a lot of concerns about their own results after the exam, thinking about the east and west. Especially after the score estimation, at the beginning, they are still expecting their own results, feeling that they will play well and will get a good school, but they are worried about what to do in case they lose, and they have no bottom in their heart, plus their parents and relatives keep asking about the test, which makes some candidates feel anxious and irritable, and they tend to lose their temper, as if they want to get angry at everything they see, and in some serious cases, they have insomnia at night. This time is like an ordeal for them.  Post-exam anxiety is also more common like pre-exam anxiety, and many candidates will have this kind of afflicted condition after the exam, especially those who usually have good academic performance. They often have high expectations, but become anxious and irritable due to uncertainty while waiting for the release of the results, and are afraid they will not do well in the exam. This anxiety may continue to increase for those candidates with weak psychological profiles, eventually leading to serious mental health problems. For example, some college entrance exam students may experience a shift from anxiety to insomnia and then from insomnia to depression. For this group of candidates, it is possible to have both positive and negative psychological preparation, one is to go to college as desired, and the other is to be psychologically prepared to fail. Everyone who takes the college entrance exam wants to go to college, but in fact it is not possible for everyone to get what they want, so be prepared to fail. If you are prepared for even the worst possibilities and even think of ways to deal with them, then this kind of worrying psychology will naturally ease. Psychological stress affects different people differently, the same setback, some people feel stressed, some do not care; some last a long time, some recover quickly, one of the very important reasons is to have a variety of possibilities of psychological preparation beforehand.  The parents’ attitude after the exam has a great influence on the candidates’ mindset, sometimes even far greater than the results themselves, so parents should also adjust their mindset at the right time. After the college entrance exam, parents should give full play to the role of “safe haven”, increase the time spent with their children, be a good listener, and help their children analyze the results they will face. Of course, first of all, parents should have a good attitude towards the results of the college entrance examination, a parent who cannot accept the failure of the college entrance examination, it is also difficult to let the child to face the results of the examination objectively.  If the child did not play well, parents should encourage the child to tell their worries and thoughts, do not blame him, should be rational to guide the child to look at the college entrance examination objectively. Regardless of the results, let your child learn to treat the results of the college entrance exam without arrogance. Encourage your child to make appropriate choices and arrangements for the future. Be sure to communicate with your child more, in the communication to help children reduce stress, do the child’s life on the road of guidance, guide, and do not constantly ask the child how to do, to plan the child’s future.  The college entrance examination is only a small test in life, adversity is a common thing, adversity is not equal to desperate, no need to hang your head, should regroup, with a strong will and confidence to cross the adversity, in life on the road to take new steps. At the same time, parents should also look at the results of the examination reasonably, as long as the child has worked hard, regardless of the test results, to unconditionally accept the reality. The college entrance examination is just a small episode in life, not the only way out for children.
