In addition, whether the personality is healthy is another manifestation of mental health!
Healthy personality is a kind of self-consciousness gradually established by individuals with their lifestyles in their life experiences. It is a comprehensive embodiment and an important symbol of people's world outlook, psychological quality and moral cultivation. It is also the basis for people to accurately grasp themselves, find a social orientation suitable for their own development, and gain respect and goodwill from others.
The main contents of college students' healthy personality should include:
One: Have a correct sense of self. College students with healthy personality should have a proper evaluation of themselves, be full of self-confidence, foster strengths and avoid weaknesses, effectively regulate their behavior in daily life, and maintain harmony and balance with the environment.
Two: have good emotional control ability. College students with healthy personality should have the ability to adjust and control their emotions, always keep a cheerful mood and have a sense of humor. When negative emotions appear, they can be reasonably vented, dissolved, transferred and sublimated.
Three: good social adaptability. College students with healthy personality can keep good contact with society, take the initiative to care about and understand society with an open attitude, observe all kinds of things they come into contact with, see the positive side and mainstream of social development, and have a sense of social responsibility. While understanding the society, I can keep pace with the times, make my thoughts and behaviors keep up with the development of the times, meet the requirements of the society, and show that I can adapt to the new environment.
Four: Have a harmonious interpersonal relationship. College students with healthy personality are willing to associate with people and can establish good relations with them. When getting along with people, positive attitudes such as respect and trust are more than negative attitudes such as jealousy and doubt. Healthy college students often treat others with honesty, fairness, trust and tolerance, and are also loved and accepted by others.
Five: Have an optimistic attitude towards life. Always see the bright side of life, full of hope and confidence in the future, have a strong interest in work or study, and play their wisdom and ability in work and study to achieve success. Even if you encounter difficulties and setbacks in your life, you have the courage to face them, take risks and struggle.
Six: Have a healthy aesthetic taste. Healthy aesthetic taste plays an important role in establishing college students' aesthetic view, outlook on life, scientific world outlook and shaping healthy personality structure. Have a noble and healthy aesthetic taste, can improve their self-cultivation, consciously resist the erosion of all kinds of bad ideas, pursue higher life value and achieve self-improvement.
However, in the above six points, self-awareness is the key core of college students' mental health.
Everyone's self-awareness is the core of everyone's personality. Self-awareness combines people's wishes, hobbies, desires, habits and interests into a unified system, which constitutes the inner world of individuals in daily life and plays an extremely important role in the development of personality. So we can use the development of self-awareness to measure a person's psychological maturity and level.
Self-awareness, also known as self-concept or self-concept, is simply your own understanding of yourself. The form of emotion and will. Therefore, the standard of mental health can also be measured from three aspects: self-knowledge, self-attitude and self-control. This constitutes three standards of mental health.
One: Know yourself correctly.
The ancient Greeks regarded "knowing yourself" as the highest wisdom of mankind. There is a motto written on the gate of Apollo Temple: "Know yourself". We also often say that "people know themselves." These words are in line with the principle of mental health.
People can not only know the objective world and respond to the surrounding environment, but also reflect on themselves, regard themselves as recognized objects and respond to their bodies, desires, abilities, feelings and thoughts. As a normal person, you always have a certain understanding of your image as a person, from your figure and appearance, morality and talent, strengths and weaknesses, strengths and weaknesses, past and present, and even your own values and responsibilities. However, there are many differences between people whether their understanding of themselves conforms to their true colors and actual situation. Some people tend to see their own advantages and disadvantages and mistakes; Some people see many of their own problems, but they can't see their main problems; Some people see their weaknesses and shortcomings, but they don't see any advantages. It can be seen that people's understanding of themselves is the same as people's understanding of the objective world, which requires a process of understanding and learning, not as simple as looking in the mirror. "The authorities are fascinated" has become a thought-provoking epigram.
Besides, in our daily life, we are often surrounded by different evaluations and discussions. Someone will praise you and praise you; Someone will criticize you and accuse you; There are even people who discriminate against you. So in all kinds of discussions, which "you" is the real "you"? Can you accurately distinguish between the various eyes that are thrown at you? Have you learned useful nutrition from these comments and discussions to enrich yourself and improve yourself? Or have you lost your autonomy and been drowned in other people's discussions?
Two: Accept yourself happily.
People's understanding of themselves is not an abstract concept, it has its own competitive feelings and attitudes, accompanied by self-evaluation, that is, whether they are good or bad, satisfied or dissatisfied with themselves. Mental health requires a person to maintain an accepting attitude towards himself, and accepting himself is a pleasant and satisfactory attitude. In other words, people should not only fully understand and correctly understand everything about themselves, but also frankly admit and accept it. Don't deceive yourself, reject yourself, and don't hate yourself.
Confucius said, "an upright man is open and poised, I am worried." From the point of view of mental health, it means that a gentleman can accept himself and be cheerful, but a villain can't accept himself, so he becomes bitter, self-destructive, ashamed, inferior, confused and even self-destructive. Accepting oneself is a psychological state, which is not completely related to the objective environment and personal conditions. Some people have physical defects, but they are optimistic; Some people have good facial features, but they are not satisfied with themselves; Some people are not rich, but very satisfied; Some people are rich and powerful, but not happy.
It is said that there was an emperor in ancient times. He has countless wealth and infinite power, but he still feels unhappy and unhappy. So he asked the philosopher who was the happiest person. The philosopher replied, "He thinks he is the happiest person, that is, the happiest person."
In fact, everyone has advantages and disadvantages. However, after discovering their weaknesses and defects, the oil people regarded them as a burden and always hung on their hearts. I can't even see my own advantages and strengths. Therefore, a person's spiritual advantage is overwhelmed by shortcomings and weaknesses, and his intelligence and potential ability cannot be exerted.
The law of success is not that you can succeed as long as you accept yourself, but that you can't succeed without accepting yourself. A person with low self-esteem sees many favorable conditions and opportunities around him, but he always thinks that these conditions and opportunities are for others and have nothing to do with himself, and even thinks that he is not worthy to accept them at all. So they don't work hard and have no courage to compete with others. This is how people with low self-esteem set up many obstacles for themselves. No one can cross the obstacles he has set for himself.
Marx appreciated the proverb: "You think giants are unattainable just because you are kneeling." Stand up and try, and you will find yourself destined to be shorter than others. Many things can be done by others, and you can do it yourself through hard work. It is important to accept yourself, make a positive evaluation of yourself and have a sense of identity with yourself.
Three: consciously control yourself.
Once instinct is realized, it will be controlled by consciousness, and instinct will be humanized and socialized. For example, excretion is a biological instinct. For an animal, excretion is to start his excretory instinct regardless of time and place. But for a normal adult, he will never defecate at will, no matter when or where. This mission, when all biological instincts are shown in civilized people, must be controlled by consciousness. If a person's biological instinct is not filtered by consciousness and reason, then he will never rise to human psychology. This man's biological instinct is compared to a wild horse, and his reason is like a reins. A horse without reins is an untamed wild horse, and a horse controlled by reins is a useful horse. Only by obeying your own reason with your own will and consciously controlling yourself to achieve your goals can you control the world through your own control.
There are many arrogant people in history who can control an army and a country, but they can't control themselves, and eventually they are ruined. Thinkers all over the world have mentioned that it is a basic principle to control yourself with reason. Confucius in our country emphasizes self-cultivation and self-denial. Plato in ancient Greece put forward: "Temperance is a kind of order, a control of happiness and desire." Aristotle said, "The difference between human beings and animals lies in behavior and reason", and "not only those who want to succeed should be regarded as brave people, but also those who want to succeed." After their advocacy, "temperance" was designated as one of the four great virtues of ancient Greece (the festival of wisdom, courage and justice). When later thinkers developed and revised these theories, they also unanimously emphasized the binding role of reason on individuals. The limitations of these theories are self-evident, but they emphasize that human behavior should be consciously controlled by consciousness and reason, but they reflect the objective requirements of human social life and the return of human historical development. From the perspective of mental health, self-control is the most important adjustment mechanism in self-psychological structure and the highest symbol of psychological maturity.
