How to pay attention to the mental health of the blind?

Health is the common aspiration of human beings. Health depends on yourself, and the key to health is in your own hands.

The purpose of cultivating healthy psychology is to make blind people become independent individuals as much as possible. Blind people change from self-abandonment to self-esteem and self-confidence and pursue a higher spiritual life. This kind of leap is to improve one's psychological quality, overcome psychological obstacles, liberate oneself, really work and live like ordinary people, and radiate all the vitality of life. In order to maintain mental health, we should pay attention to the cultivation of mental health at ordinary times.

Know yourself and society correctly.

If the blind want to get rid of the shackles of unhealthy psychology, they must first correctly understand their own advantages and disadvantages, especially their own shortcomings. Some people suddenly lost their eyes and felt that their future and ideals were all over, resulting in a sigh of "why is my life so bitter and why is my life so cruel?" They are suffering greatly psychologically, as if they have lost their eyes, confidence and courage in life. In fact, the blindness of eyes is not terrible, but the blindness of mind. Blind people should face up to the reality of their blindness and treat themselves correctly. Know what you can and can't do, foster strengths and avoid weaknesses, don't give up on yourself, don't rely too much on others, have confidence in yourself, and enhance the cultivation of self-care ability. Physical disability is a disaster that human beings are unable to avoid. Everyone will encounter some difficulties in life, and physical disability is just one of them. This does not mean that you are inferior to a healthy person in any way. It is deplorable to bully the so-called "healthy people" who laugh at the disabled. Some people compare misfortune to a sharp knife. If you hold the handle, it will serve you. If you hold the blade, it will hurt you. Without eyes, ears, hands and feet, and a sound brain, we must go on bravely on the road of life. Break through depression and hesitation, and you will find sunshine around you. Face the sun bravely, and the shadow of the night will be left behind by you. As the saying goes, "disabled people always have a set." As long as you study hard, you will often weave beautiful handicrafts and play beautiful music. ...

We should correctly understand our rapidly developing society. The superiority of the socialist system and the concern of the party and the state for the disabled have freed the blind from the tragic fate repeated by many blind people since ancient times, such as begging, fortune telling and singing. At present, although there are still some unsatisfactory places for individuals and regions to treat the disabled, we can't generalize, and we can't lose sight of a bright future because of difficulties. As long as the blind can face up to the reality, have a clear and objective understanding of the things around them, do not escape all kinds of problems, difficulties and contradictions in life, and try their best to solve them. Knowing yourself objectively, always seeing the bright side, not looking at the dark side, loving life, being positive and full of hope for the future, you can become an open-minded and mentally healthy person.

Learn to adjust yourself and find your own advantages

To know that disability can be a wall or a bridge, it depends on how you know it and how you transform it. Blind people should always pay attention to discovering their own advantages, but don't pursue unrealistic things. Although blind people have no eyes, they have a sound mind and a pair of dexterous hands. If you compare with the disabled and the paralyzed, you will find that you have many advantages over them. Following this train of thought, it is possible to open up a road to self-help.

Physically, strength is spontaneous, but in life, it is self-controlled. Blind people should believe that people have stronger potential to defeat the weak with the strong in life. When an American doctor dissected a corpse, he found that the heart of the corpse was unusually large. At the same time, people found that a heart valve was blocked and blood could not flow to the lungs adequately. The heart is enlarged to make up for this defect. This shows that for self-protection and self-improvement, life instinctively supplements the weak with the strong. Aren't blind people more attentive and better at using hearing, touch and smell than ordinary people? This is also an instinct to supplement the weak with the strong. Every blind person without exception has experienced the miracle of regeneration. Maybe you didn't feel the miracle you created, but you should be aware of it and establish your own belief. Since you can instinctively create miracles in your body, you can actively create miracles in your life.

Blind people should learn to adjust themselves and exploit their own advantages.

Blind people usually love their jobs more than healthy people. It is difficult for the blind to find a job, so they regard work as the support of their lives; Blind people with visual disabilities are more cautious, devoted, diligent, serious and focused in their work because they can't see and suffer less interference, and the rate of defective products is lower than that of ordinary people.

Blind people have a more sensitive sense of touch than normal people. Most blind people in Beijing Blind Rubber Hardware Factory can tell the difference between original rubber and artificial rubber by hand, but many discerning people can't.

Listening advantage. Blind people often use their ears instead of their eyes. Their hearing is very sensitive and they learn music faster than ordinary people. There is a folk quyi team composed of eight blind people in Jiuxi Township, Taoyuan County, Hubei Province. They give full play to their skills, write and perform programs about family planning, get rid of superstitions, legal publicity and other aspects around the party's work, and make contributions to reforming rural marriage customs, popularizing legal knowledge and building socialist spiritual civilization. It is also a means of making a living.

Strong toughness, not afraid of failure. Blind people have suffered too many setbacks and failures in life, and they can bear greater pressure in life psychologically. Blind people born blind rarely commit suicide.

Only when the blind fully see their own advantages can they take positive measures to solve problems and get rid of difficulties.

Expand social circle

Due to physical defects, withdrawn, suspicious and sensitive personality, and strong sense of inferiority, blind people are unwilling to participate in social activities, and they have long closed themselves in a small circle of personal life, which is not conducive to physical and mental development.

Friendship is a universal need of mankind. Living alone can make people narrow-minded, one-sided and prone to prejudice. Take an active part in social activities, and you will find that there are so many people in life who are willing to help the blind and give them their love selflessly. An old blind teacher once said, "A friend with vision is the eye that helps the blind to know the world." Make more friends and participate in more activities, the blind will increase their knowledge, add interest to life, enhance their confidence and courage in life, and thus improve their social adaptability.

Knowledge is power.

Knowledge is the main force for the blind to make a living and the main method to overcome disability. Knowledge can make the blind know the defects of the blind correctly and compensate them correctly.

Pay attention to arming the mind with knowledge. Books are the ladder of human progress. Blind people should read more healthy books to enrich their knowledge and broaden their horizons. Now there are technical books such as "The Blind Raise Chickens" and "The Blind Raise Rabbits". Even if it is difficult to find a job at present, you can learn a skill and stand on your own feet.

Enjoy more relaxed and beautiful music to ease the uneasy mood. Depressed blind people can also listen to some cross talk and small humor to make themselves laugh often.

Read more good literary works. Good literary works shape a beautiful mind. There has been a blind novelist Zheng He and a blind poet Zhou Jiadi among China writers. When you pick up the novel How Steel was Tempered, you will find that this brave Soviet hero once sat on a park bench and slowly tried to end his life, but he survived with tenacious perseverance. Although he was paralyzed and blind, he touched with his hands and wrote line by line, and finally miraculously wrote this masterpiece. Blind people should live like Paul. Compared with him, why do you lose confidence in life?

Knowledge can bring hope to the blind. Cui Xiaoying, from Fu Shan Village, Xiangyuan County, Shanxi Province, was blind in primary school. Excessive sadness and despair made most of her black hair turn white in half a year, and her parents noticed her suicide several times. Later, she took part in the study of blind children in regular classes. In order to master Braille as soon as possible, she studied hard, and her fingers faded several layers, but she didn't stop bleeding. Two years later, she has published many articles and entered a middle school for the blind, which laid the foundation for realizing her dream of becoming a doctor. Knowledge made Cui Xiaoying get rid of the pain and find the joy of life. Her white hair turned black and brightened again.

Knowledge can develop the intelligence of the blind and cultivate a beautiful mind. Reading and thinking is a noble pleasure. Blind people should fully enjoy this cultural wealth and let them get rid of ignorance and become noble.

Cultivate a healthy mood

Blind people should cultivate an open mind and an optimistic mind, and their emotions are greatly influenced by ideology. For a certain thing, don't get into a dead end, don't mope all day, it will make the bad mood last for a lifetime. People should make happiness a psychological habit, look for happiness everywhere and find happiness. When you are unhappy, when you encounter sadness and inevitable difficulties, the blind should learn to treat it with a happy mood, then it may become insignificant. Blind people should learn to analyze their own personality weaknesses, learn to live with a smile, and be the master of emotions, regardless of the external environment.
