How do psychiatric nurses keep mental health?

In the new era, psychological barrier is an increasingly heavy topic. According to a recent survey by the World Health Organization, a series of heavy figures show that the number of people suffering from psychological disorders accounts for 12% of the global population, and there is an upward trend. Then, nurses in the new era, especially those in psychiatric departments, are in an atmosphere of anxiety, depression, paranoia, doubt and anger for a long time. How can they not be assimilated by the harsh environment?

First, a correct understanding of psychological barriers

Psychological disorder generally refers to the inability to act in a way that society thinks appropriate, so that the consequences of its behavior are not suitable for itself or society. Generally speaking, psychological disorder is an abnormal manifestation of response to stimuli.

Second, master the elements of maintaining a healthy psychology.

With the change of medical model, health has a new concept. Self-confidence The definition of health by the World Health Organization is that health means not only the absence of physical defects and diseases, but also the complete physical, psychological and social adaptability. In other words, mental health is as important as physical health. Mental health has the following requirements:

1. Normal intelligence

2. Self-security

practical

4. Optimistic attitude towards life

5. Harmonious interpersonal relationship

6. Harmony between thought and action

Third, pay attention to supplement "nutrients" to healthy psychology.

With the progress of modern material civilization, people pay great attention to the reasonable collocation of meals to absorb all kinds of nutrition, while ignoring that mental health actually needs to supplement "nutrition".

1. Self-confidence: Self-confidence can make us strong, fearless and positive, and have the courage to accept challenges and solve problems. With the rapid development of nursing, many nursing methods need to be reformed and updated. The society's incomprehension and even discrimination against psychiatric medical staff leads to the psychological pressure of psychiatric medical staff and the lack of support from society and their families. But as long as we have confidence, we have the courage and ability to face the challenge.

2. Love: Love is a manifestation of human kindness and the most direct way of communication between people. It can make people deeply feel that life is a kind of happiness. As a psychiatric nurse, love is the embodiment of a sense of responsibility. She cares about herself, loves her job, loves her customers more, and is willing to pay for sincerity. Love is an important spiritual nutrient. Love can accompany one's life. Psychiatric nurses have great social responsibility, and the love of colleagues, relatives and children is very important. They will give nurses confidence and motivation in their careers and families, and make their lives full of joy and warmth.

3. Happiness: The intense and heavy nursing work will inevitably make us feel tired and depressed. As long as we pay attention to replenish the nutrient "happiness" in time and give life vitality, we can relieve fatigue, eliminate depression, actively and enthusiastically devote ourselves to nursing work, sincerely greet a patient and find happiness in stressful work.

4. Tolerance: At work, there will inevitably be some contradictions between nurses and between nurses and patients. When these conflicts cannot be solved, we nurses should give up in time and learn to be tolerant. Tolerance is also an indispensable "nutrient" for mental health. There are many kinds of life, and everything is bound to go well. Nameless fire and depression often go hand in hand. Tolerance is a magic weapon to get rid of all kinds of troubles and relieve psychological pressure.

5. Self-knowledge: Know yourself, know yourself and grasp yourself. Accept the suggestions of colleagues with an open mind, treat people and things with an open mind, and study and improve your professional level in a targeted, planned and purposeful way.

6. Self-control: Knowing self-control is an important means of self-regulation and maintaining healthy psychology. In the process of nursing, psychiatric nurses are often abused, rudely treated and attacked by mental patients. Therefore, we must strengthen our self-cultivation, learn to control anger, control our emotions, and achieve the state of being calm and convincing others.

7. Ah Q: In life, there are inevitably many unpleasant emotions. In case of resentment, impatience, dissatisfaction, pain, depression, shame and guilt, you might as well have some Ah Q spirit and shout in your heart: "Oh, nothing, the sky is falling." Comfort yourself with self-explanation and self-mockery, so as to achieve, resolve and vent, prevent the accumulation of bad emotions and form psychological barriers.
