How should schools attach importance to psychological counseling for students?

The average age at which people begin to show early signs of mental illness is 14 years old. And this time it happened to fall into the student era. School is the best place to improve students' mental health and popularize their awareness of mental illness.

Some students always suffer from various psychological problems, while others must learn how to get along with these students, or their families suffering from psychological diseases.

To solve these problems, students need resources and information to deal with them. Therefore, it is not enough to pay attention to students' mental health. It is more important to improve students' overall understanding of mental illness.

Improving the understanding of mental illness can greatly eliminate the social prejudice brought about by it.

Students with mental illness or people with social relations (such as friends and family) suffer from mental illness, and they need to endure not only the suffering of this disease, but also mental illness? Stigmatization? .

People who don't fully understand mental illness may make wrong judgments or unfriendly assessments of mental illness patients. Mental patients may also face discrimination from the community (including schools) and other types of prejudice.

The improvement of understanding of mental illness has also increased the understanding of mental illness. More knowledge, less? Stigmatization? .

At the same time, students with or suspected of mental illness are more willing to actively seek help. Students living with family members with mental illness will be able to talk about their experiences better and seek resources and support.

Being aware of mental illness can save lives.

Just as some physical diseases can be life-threatening, so can some mental diseases. For example, suicide is a real risk for people with certain types of mental illness (such as depression).

Compared with adults with the same disease, in some cases, teenagers are at greater risk of attempted suicide and other life-threatening behaviors. Teenagers are more impulsive than adults and often lack the experience of stopping thinking and observing the situation for a long time.

Understanding mental illness and its symptoms can help young people realize their mental illness and suicidal thoughts and provide them with the information they need before it is too late.
