That is to say, the same person's psychological development may be healthy or unhealthy at different stages of life development because of his different adaptation to the development tasks at that stage.
For example, when they also enter adolescence, some children adapt well, spend it smoothly, and enter the next stage of life development healthily and happily; But some children can't adapt well, or join bad gangs, or show some bad behaviors and face psychological crisis.
However, if an adolescent student facing psychological crisis gets timely and effective attention and help, it is possible to get rid of psychological crisis and embark on the road of mental health development in the subsequent development.
This stage of mental health shows that mental health has strong plasticity and it is completely feasible to carry out mental health education.
From the perspective of differences, mental health is relative.
Mental health is not absolute and absolute. People can't be divided into two categories: mental health and mental unhealthy, and there are no people with absolute mental health.
In other words, mental health is a problem that every member of our society will face. Everyone will have mental health and unhealthy aspects at the same time, but which situation is the mainstream and the degree is different.
This relativity of mental health shows that mental health is all-round and it is necessary, valuable and meaningful to carry out mental health education.
Second, the necessity of carrying out mental health education In recent years, due to various changes brought about by social development, school education and children's development in China have been impacted and challenged.
The survey shows that about15 children and adolescents in primary and secondary schools in China have psychological and behavioral problems of different degrees, such as weariness, truancy, stealing, lying, cheating, selfishness, willfulness, poor frustration tolerance, aggression, withdrawal, anxiety and depression.
These psychological and behavioral problems not only seriously affect the healthy development of children and adolescents themselves, but also bring great troubles to the normal education and teaching work, directly affecting the completion of school education tasks and the realization of educational goals.
Therefore, it is very urgent and meaningful to carry out mental health education in school education.
However, in the current school education practice, many teachers still have some misunderstandings about mental health education. They think that "mental patients" need mental health education, and it is not necessary to carry out mental health education in school education.
In fact, mental health education is completely different from the diagnosis and treatment mode in psychiatry. Mental health education is mainly aimed at the needs of children and adolescents' psychological development, aiming at improving and cultivating students' psychological quality, and helping students learn how to properly and effectively cope with various pressures in real life and how to adjust their emotions. To enable students to adapt to society more effectively and actively, to adapt to their own development and changes, and to promote the mental health development of children and adolescents.
Therefore, preventing problems and promoting the improvement of psychological quality are the main goals of mental health education.
Mental health education is essentially the education and cultivation of psychological quality, an important aspect of promoting students' all-round development and a concrete embodiment of quality education.
Other teachers think that mental health education is mainly aimed at individual students.
It is true that individual students need special education and help in their mental health development.
However, as mentioned above, mental health is a problem for all employees, and it is an inevitable challenge for every student in the process of growth and development, including those students who are excellent in learning and are "good" children in the eyes of teachers, and also need mental health education.
Many studies and practices have proved that sometimes these "good" students need mental health education more.
Because, often due to good academic performance, the unhealthy aspects of these "good" students' psychological development are often ignored, and they can't get the attention of teachers and timely help and education.
For example, some "good" students have been spoiled and praised for a long time, and their psychological endurance has become extremely fragile. If they are slightly dissatisfied, they will lose their temper. Some even take extreme measures to retaliate and even embark on the road of crime. Others took the road of suicide and suicide to face the pressure of failure and frustration.
It can be seen that mental health education is not only the need of students' individual education, but also an important topic for all students and should be an important task of our school education.
Some teachers think that mental health education should belong to moral education, which is the task of student workers and class teachers.
In fact, mental health education can not only play an important role in moral education, but also provide a new angle for every educator to re-recognize and treat his students and some behavioral problems, and can effectively help school teachers improve communication between teachers and students.
In the past, teachers often only paid attention to students' superficial behavior problems, and quickly rose to the level of moral education to make bad behavior judgments, while ignoring the hidden reasons behind these behavior problems, including students' psychological needs.
