One of the most prominent problems facing China in the future is the aging population, which includes not only physical health, but also mental health. The mental health of the elderly has an important influence on the happiness and health of the whole family. The mental health problems of the elderly are not only important, but also difficult to adjust for the following reasons.
First, the degradation of physiological function. Due to the increase of age, the physical function of the elderly is seriously degraded, especially the physiological degradation of brain nerve function is one of the main reasons leading to psychological problems, so we often see reports of bad words and deeds of the elderly in society, which is closely related to the problems of their nerve center function. Therefore, from this perspective, it is not that the bad guys are getting old, but that the "neurological function" of the elderly is getting worse.
Second, there is a contradiction between the decisiveness of mindset and the development of real society. After decades of ups and downs, the elderly have long formed their own stable and unique way of thinking, and generally will not change easily. Moreover, because the elderly have high qualifications and prestige, they have strengthened their rigid mentality and will not easily change their cognition, so they will not easily adapt to psychological problems.
Third, the lack of social adaptability of the elderly leads to psychological problems. Modern society is developing very rapidly, and things are changing with each passing day. Because the best experience of the elderly is in their youth, which is the social impression at least twenty or thirty years ago, they will have a lot of maladjustment to the current social atmosphere, secularism and culture, thus affecting their psychological stability.
Therefore, the current construction of social psychological service system can not ignore the concern for the mental health of the elderly, but should fully realize the important influence of the mental health of the elderly on the whole family and the construction of social psychological service system.
First of all, I think it is necessary to make sure that this meaning will definitely exist. Because the elderly are probably the oldest in a family and have the most say in the family, the mental health of an elderly person is likely to affect the harmony of a family, and each family is the cell that constitutes our society.
Then, I will talk about my opinion. At present, the elderly in China should have experienced all kinds of sports after New China. They have suffered and been tired, and they have not received systematic education in the same environment as now. Therefore, there is a saying that it is not the old people who have become bad, but the bad people who have become good. It is not easy for them to receive consultation and education in this field.
Finally, I want to say that the elderly are also educated by society. Society now thinks that their psychology may be more or less unhealthy due to some historical factors. However, the essence is that at some stage, we have abandoned all the spiritual food handed down for thousands of years, such as the moral bottom line of people except laws and regulations.
