So, what psychological problems will teenagers face after the epidemic is relaxed?
1. Adolescents have poor ability to reasonably regulate negative emotions
The "isolated" home life has brought tension, anxiety, panic and other psychological conditions to adolescents whose psychological development is immature.
Their emotional control is generally low. Faced with the complicated epidemic information and compressed living space, teenagers have some adverse psychological reactions. They often cannot regulate well and cannot digest it.
For example: because they pay too much attention to epidemic-related news and information that is difficult to distinguish between true and false on the Internet, young people are often unable to make scientific judgments and exaggerate the severity of the epidemic; they may suffer from psychological distress such as boredom, irritability, frustration, depression, depression, irritability, and fear.
Adolescents who are still in the transition to adulthood cannot scientifically and reasonably adjust these psychological distress.
2. Restricted interpersonal communication and tense parent-child relationship
Adolescents have a strong enthusiasm for interpersonal communication, their demand for socialization is increasing, and they have many and complex emotions. Affected by the epidemic, school suspensions have left young people with nothing to do, and due to the lack of effective supervision, they are lazy Study online and indulge in games;
Home isolation has led to a narrow scope of interpersonal communication, and the communication skills and enthusiasm of teenagers have continued to decline. Due to the longer time at home, parents and other family members have returned to work and production after recovery, and the discipline of teenagers has become more simple and rough. As a result, teenagers are more likely to have disputes with their families, resulting in conflicts and strained parent-child relationships.
At the same time, individual students may vent their negative emotions in interactions with their class teachers and classmates, causing disharmony in interpersonal relationships.
3. Psychological problems cause physiological adverse reactions
Living at home for a long time will cause energetic teenagers to have irregular eating and sleeping patterns, which will lead to physiological and other problems.
Continuous irritability, inability to concentrate on doing things; difficulty falling asleep, staying up late for a long time; or being easily awakened at night, waking up too early in the morning, insufficient overall sleep time, and poor sleep quality.
is too sensitive and nervous about all kinds of information, and has no interest in the things that he liked in the past. There may also be behaviors such as excessive concern about one's physical condition, repeated hand washing, and disinfection due to concerns about the epidemic.
Now, how should we build the psychological self-protection ability of young people?
1. Make good plans for home holidays
While at home, teenagers have more time to control themselves.
In order to avoid boredom, depression, etc., teenagers should make a life-study plan, reasonably arrange their study, rest, and entertainment time, reduce the time spent playing mobile games, watching dramas, etc., actively encourage themselves, and effectively implement the plan so that they can better control their lives.
At the same time, it can be combined with moderate physical exercise to enhance immunity.
2. Be the master of emotions
Epidemic information and facing the disease will inevitably cause negative emotions in immature teenagers. Teenagers should be aware of their inner changes in time and vent their emotions by talking to family, classmates, and friends or writing diaries. They can also listen to music, read books, etc. to relieve stress.
When teenagers have negative emotions, they should not reject them, let alone belittle themselves. They should try to maintain a stable emotional state and avoid entering an endless loop.
You can try to deal with it in a positive way, such as re-making plans, self-comfort, self-encouragement, etc.
Teenagers can affirm their efforts in getting through this period, their courage to face negative emotions, their positive thinking, and their own strength and ability.
3. Strengthen communication with others
Under the post-relaxation epidemic, although teenagers are unable to go out and face the disease, they can stay in touch with friends, classmates, and teachers online, tell each other their current situation and mood through video calls, and provide support and encouragement to each other.
When you are at home, you spend more time with your parents. You can communicate more with your parents, talk about interesting things about campus life, or talk about your own worries, understand the hard work of your parents, and strive to get into each other's hearts; you can also help your parents do some housework within their ability, and enjoy the rare family life.
4. Seek help promptly when problems are discovered.
If teenagers find that their bad emotions have affected their normal lives, such as loss of appetite, insomnia, etc., and they are unable to adjust themselves, they should inform their parents in time, or communicate with the class teacher through the Internet, seek professional psychological assistance through parents and teachers, and let professional psychological counselors help them adjust their mental state.
Through the efforts of all parties, we believe that during this difficult period, the mental health of young people will develop in a healthy, positive and positive way.
