Zhengzhou Traditional Chinese Medical Hall: If you have depressed children at home, do the following:
1. Under the premise of ensuring the personal safety of children, do not bother too much.
Children do not want to talk, do not always talk to children, children do not want to have physical contact, do not hold hands and embrace the growth of the grid, no medicine can replace.
Find a reliable psychological counselor for your child and do long-term psychotherapy. Parents should form a therapeutic alliance with the counselor and do not interfere too much in the work of the counselor. If they, like the parents mentioned above, are interfering in the work of the counselor, then it is not an alliance.
The consequence of always interfering with the counselor is that the counselor can only give up the case, and the counselor needs the support of the parents, not the urging.
The counselor will communicate with the parents, and the parents do not have to worry.
Rome was not built in a day. This problem was not created overnight. Children need a long time of treatment, every child's situation is different, there is no standard answer. A few months, or at least a year.
If the child and the counselor are well matched, that is, the child is willing to consult with the counselor, parents must not judge the counselor by their subjective likes and dislikes, as long as the counselor has a professional background and integrity. In psychological counseling, a good match is a rare thing, not to ask for it.
Counseling is a science, like a mountain. Parents should also understand this simple truth.
To respect a child's counselor is to respect the child.
I even feel that the true attitude of parents to the counselor is the true attitude of parents to their children.
Parents must accept this fact
If the hospital diagnoses depression and the psychological counselor evaluates it as depression, parents must accept this fact and accept this fact before they can carry out the next step of effective treatment, and the situation will still develop in a good direction. If you don't accept it, things will get worse and worse. There will be even more tragedies.
What should I do if my child has depression?
You know, children with major depression want to commit suicide.
All their words and deeds are not pretentious, not antagonistic, not ignorant, but morbid and true.
