Read the news today, two major events happened. ① A serious stampede occurred in Itaewon, South Korea. So far, 153 people have died, three of whom are Chinese; ② An explosion occurred in Ganzhou, Jiangxi, killing ten injuries...
as the saying goes, the world is impermanent, and I don’t know which disaster or tomorrow will come first. The departure of more than 100 people on this day directly and connected to more than a thousand families. These families need assistance and help when they encounter sudden changes. However, the unscientific help will cause secondary psychological harm to these deceased direct relatives. Therefore, the first thing we need to understand is that in this case, when a person encounters trauma, from a psychological point of view, he will go through five stages:
① Confused period: the injured person is suddenly hit, his personal thinking stops, and all kinds of external feelings are dull and numb, which makes outsiders feel confused, unable to hear the voices of the outside world, and has no response to other people's communication;
② Shocking overreaction period: Generally, one to three days after the incident occurs, relatives will wake up from the first stage of confusing period, and will be afraid, at a loss, emotional out of control, etc. The overall performance is very helpless and cry. At this time, outsiders can provide appropriate psychological comfort, focusing on listening and lenient explanation;
③ Continuous trauma stage: Generally, the injured person will continue to be immersed in pain and cannot extricate himself, have memories and resentment, and will be accompanied by symptoms such as anxiety, irritability and insomnia. At this stage, the relatives of the injured person need to accompany the life. If the situation is wrong, persuade them, be patient, and encourage and listen to enlightenment;
④ Psychological repair period: During the six months to one year of the incident, the psychological trauma recovery period gradually improves overall, but occasionally there will be recurrences. At this stage, the relatives and friends of the injured person need to accompany them frequently, find other ways to divert attention, such as travel, exercise, etc.;
⑤ Long-term recovery stage: within one to five years, psychological patients can get out of the vortex of blows and live their original normal life.
reminds everyone: when similar events happen around you, when people we are familiar with are hit by similar blows, we have love, but we should pay attention to the methods, and comfort people cannot rely on their passion. We must understand the skills and implement psychological help in accordance with scientific methods. Personal suggestions, for reference only!
