A child is irritable to cut his wrist to relieve stress

On September 2nd, accompanied by parents, Zhang Yi (pseudonym), 14, entered the clinic of the psychiatric department. Zhang Yi, who was thin and thin, always frowned, wore a wrist on his wrist, at a young age, and his face condensed with sorrow.

After the doctor's inquiry, Zhang Yi only said that he was not emotional. The father whispered in the side that the child cut his wrist more than a dozen times at home. "Ask him why, he said that he couldn't be irritable. All disappeared, and my mood became extremely happy. "

The doctor opened Zhang Yi's wrist guard at the wrist, and a dozen scars were shocked.

Zhang Yi cut his wrist for the first time in the early half semester. In order to allow him to get better education, his parents sent him to a closed private middle school.

Children in their teens live together, and there is no more contradiction friction. After Zhang Yi argued with his classmates, Zhang Yi was criticized by the teacher. It was a trivial matter, but what he did not expect was that he was isolated by his classmates. Long -term living, coupled with isolated, Zhang Yi's life became a mess, the class could not focus on the class, the brain response became slower, and the results fell straight.

Ms. Tang, who lives in Taiyuan City, is 28 years old. She just "upgraded" a mother a while ago. The whole family was very happy. All the attention was concentrated on the baby. The baby's micro -expression and small movement were enough to cause them to exclaim.

During pregnancy, expectant mothers can learn about some relevant knowledge about postpartum depression, and understand the emotional fluctuations that novice mothers may have.

At this time, it is easy to feel the fatigue of the body and spirit. The family needs to ensure the relatively quietness of the ward and minimize the number of people who come to visit. For novice mothers, the care and care of family members are very important. This is their greatest spiritual pillar.
