How do British students deal with psychological problems

1. China's family or old friends often correspond.

Parents, relatives and friends are the people who can comfort our hearts the most. In the era of network information, parents or good friends often contact each other, and using network video communication is also a good medicine to alleviate the loneliness of foreign students.

Step 2 integrate into the local social circle

Many students have just arrived in a strange city, and they can't find the north. On the one hand, there are differences in language and culture; On the other hand, it is psychological distance, even if your classmates, landlords and neighbors are friendly. Therefore, "communication begins with people around you." Especially when you are helpless and need help from others, don't ignore your classmates, colleagues you know at work, neighbors and even teachers and teaching assistants.

3. Join the international student exchange group in China.

Most foreign schools have Chinese communities, and many international students' social circles begin here. After all, they are the same race, so communication will be more cordial and natural. It can help you relieve stress and reduce the probability of psychological collapse. But finding the right community is not easy.

4. Join the local/China church.

These Chinese churches will take pains to introduce local resources and provide corresponding help to students who come to ask. Students who are basically interested in Christianity or religious beliefs will get satisfactory help through such a social support system. Now there is a trend that many international students regard it as a social means and often go to eat and drink. In fact, the church has many communication restrictions, so we might as well try other channels for help. Often go to the local Buddhist temple to participate in volunteer activities, chanting, copying and so on.

5. Campus Psychological Counseling Center

Many schools will provide Chinese psychological counseling services, so don't delay psychological counseling because you are worried about language barriers. Most schools provide 6- 12 free of charge every semester, and you can make an appointment according to the requirements of the school psychological counseling center. It is the most suitable place for international students to seek help, on the one hand, because it is free, on the other hand, it is easy to make an appointment.

6. Off-campus psychological counseling institutions or private practicing psychological counselors

There are many resources in foreign off-campus counseling institutions and private counselors, but counselors who are proficient in Chinese are different from place to place, and they may not be found near the school. Today, you can go to psychological search for local therapists, screen according to language and state, and call the hotline. Usually, the lobby of the school psychological counseling center (waiting hall) has a lot of information about local institutions.

7. Browse social circles on the Internet

There is always a buzz among international students, so in the Internet age, people with the same hobbies and experiences will appreciate and support each other.

8. Consultant China.

At present, there are counselors who specialize in video consultation, such as Simple Psychology and Zhihu, to provide psychological counseling services for international students in this way. When communicating with consultants in China, there is no need to worry about language communication and cultural differences. This has actually become a very good choice for many international students. In particular, consultants who have studied abroad have more knowledge and experience about the cultural conflicts and adaptation problems faced by international students, and it is easier for them to build trust.

9. Everyone is the master of his own adjustment.

(1) actively and quickly adapt to the local culture.

For example, China people speak implicitly, while foreigners speak directly. If you want the other person to help you, just say so, otherwise the other person will not help you, but you will misunderstand it as heartless!

(2) Never be alone.

Especially when life changes and the pressure is great, it is late to remind "the best way is to keep in touch with people". Meet some classmates in class, study together, do homework together, review together, and find someone to have dinner with at noon and evening. If you live, you'd better not live in one household, live in a dormitory or find someone to share. Keeping in touch with people can help you keep a normal pace of life and relieve stress.

(3) Strong mentality

Always give yourself positive energy hints. When you are depressed, it is a virtuous circle to say that spring blossoms a thousand times and really feel that spring blossoms. Since I chose far convenience, I only care about suffering! Why can't a strong heart be strong? Don't sell yourself short and look down on yourself! Everything depends on human effort, and people show things! Work drops through the stone, not by strength, but by kung fu! Work hard, you can do it!

(4) Cultivate hobbies

Develop your hobbies, read your favorite books and so on. For example, sports, reading, painting and other healthy hobbies will make you relax and increase positive energy.
