Early the next morning, I went to the hospital where I was before and went directly to the psychology department.
I didn't go back to the department where I used to be. I didn't want others to think that I was showing off my return to my hometown in fine clothes, and I also didn't want to let myself suffer the embarrassment of leaving.
Of course, maybe I'm overthinking it.
I directly found the director of the psychology department, who also serves as the deputy director of the hospital's psychiatry department.
Generally speaking, general hospitals will not set up a separate psychiatric department, but there will often be specialized hospitals for diagnosis and treatment of mental illnesses. But this is a teaching hospital, so such a department must be opened from the perspective of training students. Therefore,
Affiliated hospitals of medical universities often have the most complete set of departments.
The director of the psychology department is a senior expert, not particularly old, that is, a middle-aged woman aged forty-five or six years old. We are very familiar with each other, because I often asked her when I was in the obstetrics and gynecology department of this hospital.
To provide psychological counseling to some hospitalized patients.
The most common psychological problems among obstetrics and gynecology patients mainly include the following types -
One is premenstrual tension syndrome. This refers to a group of uncomfortable physical and mental reactions that occur before menstruation.
The second is psychogenic irregular menstruation, including amenorrhea and dysmenorrhea caused by mental factors.
Third, menopausal syndrome
The fourth is frigidity and vaginal spasm.
The fifth is antepartum depression. Prenatal depression is a new psychological disease during pregnancy that has emerged in recent years.
Prenatal depression is very harmful. If it is severe, it may even cause harm to oneself, such as self-mutilation, suicide, and even affect the life of the fetus.
Since pregnancy, women will experience various physical discomforts such as vomiting due to hormonal changes in their bodies, especially in the first three months of pregnancy. At the same time, they are also prone to psychological fluctuations and are more likely to be depressed. Women during childbearing years are susceptible to mental illness.
If a woman with poor adjustment ability does not receive appropriate care at this time and is under excessive psychological pressure, making it difficult to transition from the role of a girl to the role of a mother, she may clinically manifest mania, depression, schizophrenia, and even disturbance of consciousness and hallucinations.
, resulting in unpredictable unexpected events.
Experts analyze that pregnant women are often most worried about losing everything they had before pregnancy and falling out of favor with their husbands and workplaces. More white-collar women are also worried that their bodies will be out of shape.
More and more middle- and high-income women quit their jobs immediately after becoming pregnant. The original fulfilling life status and clear purpose of life are suddenly gone, and people become very empty. Pregnant women just guess here and there without doing anything.
Psychological problems arise as a result of pregnancy; in addition, urban women have never experienced hardship since childhood, and the pain caused by childbirth makes them terrified all day long.
In short, there are indeed many patients in the obstetrics and gynecology department who need psychological counseling and psychological treatment. Of course, our provincial obstetrics and gynecology hospital also has psychiatrists, but I don’t want to go to the doctor in our hospital. First, I am worried that if Dong Jie is
I found that, secondly, the level of psychiatrists in our hospital is definitely much worse than those in teaching hospitals.
In fact, our domestic psychological institutions are not very complete, and there are no independent psychiatrists like those in foreign countries. Psychiatrists with real qualifications are actually affiliated with hospital psychiatry departments, or some hospitals only have such departments.
Settings. For example, our hospital only strengthened its technical capabilities in this area after I went there.
If you are a psychologist affiliated with a psychiatry department, most of them are used to treating patients with drugs. Those who provide conversation services are called psychological counselors, who mainly solve patients' problems through comfort and analysis.
Therefore, if a patient wants to get psychological services, he must first determine what his problem is, and then find the corresponding service agency and staff for help. If he finds the wrong person, it may not be helpful at all.
In developed Western societies, psychologists are a mature profession, and it is even more difficult to be a psychiatrist. Our country is developing, and the profession is not mature enough in this regard. It is much easier to engage in this profession than in the United States, Japan, and Canada.
Electricians, drivers, carpenters, if you are interested in psychology, you can get a certificate.
It is not easy to find a psychiatrist for help. I finally found one and paid a lot of money. What I heard from my relatives and friends and the person in charge of the neighborhood committee was similar. In this way, the reputation of this profession was destroyed.
At present, the demand for psychologists in our country is huge, the market is not standardized, and the industry is immature. For the general public, it is not how much money they spend for seeking help, but whether they can find a counselor who meets their psychological needs.
.It makes it more difficult for ordinary people to identify, just like when a patient goes to the hospital to register to see a doctor, how does he know whether the doctor who treats him is good?
A psychiatrist especially wants to pry into your psychological privacy. This psychiatrist is not a professional. If he is obviously biased or talks too much about personal issues, it is not like this for you but not for me. In addition, it is not very professional.
, personal emotions, personal likes and dislikes appear in professional interactions, private acceptance of money and goods from each other, private invitations, entertainment activities outside of consultation, money and material exchanges, and the development of personal relationships with clients outside of consultation.
Therefore, even if a person has received professional training in psychology but has not received training in psychotherapy, it is still difficult to provide psychological help on how the human brain responds to bright light stimulation and what kind of electricity it discharges, or to do basic research on human learning and memory.
Yes. It is possible to find out what the other person’s academic background is, what major he studied, etc. If necessary, we can also have such a rule in the future and put his personal resume in the clinic. Not only the photo, but also attached below.
Where to study and train, recognized qualifications, etc. The verification may be official and formal standards are not enough, but we general public can still identify it through methods.
Because of this, I came here specifically to hire a doctor for Dong Jie. Relatively speaking, the psychiatrists here are relatively professional and qualified.
It's a pity that I will be transferred soon, otherwise I will further strengthen the psychology department of the Provincial Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital.
This is actually a concept, and it is a concept that must be possessed to turn a hospital into a modern specialized hospital. However, I believe that there are not many hospital leaders who truly have such a concept.
(Readers please do not feel that such content is unnecessary. At present, with the increase of competitive pressure, people's psychological problems are becoming more and more prominent, so I think it is necessary to popularize this knowledge in the book.)
The director of the psychology department, whose surname was Pan, was very enthusiastic when she saw me, "Ah, Director Feng, no, I should call you Dean Feng now. Dean Feng, what brought you to your knees today?"
Are you here? Please take a seat."
Her voice is very gentle and kind, and I feel very comfortable after listening to it. In fact, this is also a professional need. To be precise, this is a unique voice formed after long-term professional training.
I smiled and said, "Director Pan, I came here specifically to ask for your help today."
She looked at me in surprise, "Oh? Tell me, what is it?"
So I immediately told her about Dong Jie's situation, and then took out 10,000 yuan from my bag and handed it to her.
She looked at me, "Dean Feng, what are you doing?"
I said to her sincerely: "Director Pan, I came here specially to ask you to treat an acquaintance of mine. Nowadays, many people in our country do not pay much attention to psychiatrists. I am also a doctor, so I think we should first of all
Start by doing it yourself. If you put it abroad, this amount of money will definitely not be enough."
She looked very moved, "Dean Feng, you are really different as a dean. I heard that your hospital is doing very well in this area... No wonder you attach so much importance to it."
I smiled and said: "Attention is necessary, but the technical strength here is too weak. Director Pan, I am still thinking that in the future our hospital should ask you to give more lectures to the doctors in the psychology department of our hospital.
, don’t worry, we will definitely give full consideration to the cost issue.”
She was overjoyed, "Great! Haha! Dean Feng, my purpose is not just to make money, I think our area really needs to be paid attention to."
I don’t want to talk more about this issue. After all, it involves the leadership of my original unit. “Director Pan, this patient’s situation is quite special. Because I am not a professional doctor in psychology, I can’t judge whether she is real or not.”
She has a mental illness or mental problem. Therefore, I hope that Director Pan will not reveal your identity as an expert in this field in front of her."
She nodded and said: "I understand. Don't worry, Director Feng. I'll just talk to her and have a casual chat. You know, our job is actually to diagnose whether the patient has a psychological or mental illness by chatting with the patient."
disease.”
I felt relieved immediately, so I immediately told her Ning Xiangru’s idea. She kept nodding, “That’s right. That’s it. But I have to communicate with the patient’s boss first.”
After I left the affiliated hospital, I immediately called Ning Xiangru. After hearing what I told her about the situation, she said, "Okay, give me the doctor's phone number and I'll go find her in the afternoon."
I said: "I have already paid the fee. You don't have to worry about it anymore."
She sighed: "You are too kind to women. This is also the fundamental reason why you easily fall in love with women."
I smiled bitterly and hung up the phone.
On that day, shortly after I returned to the hospital, I received a call from Director Zou of the Provincial Department of Health, "Xiao Feng, please come to the Department of Health. You have been transferred to the provincial recruitment office without permission. I want to represent the province."
The Party Committee of the Department of Health will read it to you in person."
At this moment, I suddenly became excited. At the same time, I suddenly felt that I had a wonderful feeling like officials in ancient times receiving imperial edicts... (To be continued)
