imperial psychologist

Chapter 419

"Many places, many people." Bai Ling replied, "But everyone has their own way to temporarily hide symptoms...unless they have to, they won't say anything."

"From the very beginning of the disease to the end when the patient had to take the initiative to receive treatment, the time spent is generally more than ten years." Bo Ling whispered, "So most of the patients I have seen have basically fully experienced this. Every kind of pain that disease brings.

"Worse, they often experience the trauma repeatedly over the course of a decade or more."

"Ten years," Shen Jichuan frowned slightly, "That should be very troublesome."

"Yeah," Bo Ling nodded, "For them, it has become a habit to avoid the stimuli that evoke their trauma—as long as they avoid these stimuli, they can avoid the negative things that they can't handle. , unbearable emotion.

"...Did your treatment also start from here?" Shen Jichuan quickly realized, "Is this why you gave me that iron ball?"

"General, please don't treat it as treatment." Bai Ling whispered, "You don't know when you will be going north, and you don't have time; I won't give anyone any treatment in the future, I... It's still far away Far from adequate.

"I just want to tell the general what I know, maybe it can give you some inspiration... In fact, it's all very easy to understand."

The two then walked forward.

Bai Ling said softly, "There are generally two treatment directions. One is to identify and correct some wrong ideas of patients, and the other is to challenge all their avoidance behaviors."

"Wrong idea..." Shen Jichuan frowned, "For example?"

"For example, how does a person understand and interpret the trauma he has experienced." Bai Ling said softly, "Some disasters are actually difficult for anyone to predict and avoid in advance.

"However, after things happen, with hindsight, people will think that they should have some kind of consciousness, some kind of judgment, some kind of decision at that time, and then restore all the consequences.

"But, after all, they didn't think of this at the time, so they did something or didn't do something.

"So these people will always be stuck in self-blame. They just keep blaming and regretting, thinking that if they didn't do so well at the beginning, they must be very happy and happy now.

"It's about biases like that ... people need to identify them, talk about them.

"People may seldom carefully clarify how they understand the things that make them painful. So, when they encounter all similar situations later, they will apply their original logic to solve them."

Bo Ling looked at Shen Jichuan, "It is very troublesome to correct these cognitions, because by that time, these thoughts are often deeply ingrained and become a latent instinct.

"The instinct of self-blame, the instinct of self-loathing, the instinct of pre-emptive destruction and letting go...that sort of thing.

"Challenging avoidance behavior is more difficult than challenging cognition." Berlin continued, "Because people choose to avoid, because those stimuli will evoke some memories that really touched them. I believe that in the past few years of life Here, the general already has sufficient experience in avoiding certain things, and many decisions... have become habits.

"So it is especially difficult to change." Bo Ling said softly.

"However, in contrast, as long as the avoidance behavior is weakened, all related symptoms will be greatly improved, and this will further encourage patients to continue to confront their past avoidance behavior.

"It's like turning on a pump, the hardest part is getting it going.

"General, you are afraid of the sound of explosions, so you can play with the golden ball first," Bai Ling said softly, "After you get used to its sound, you can try ordinary firecrackers, and when the firecrackers are also used to it, then you can try firecrackers.

"Take your time, you can always get over this hurdle.

"However, I guess this is not the only thing the general is afraid of." Bo Ling whispered, "...others, I may not... be of much help for the time being."

Shen Jichuan listened silently.

He remembered some past events very briefly, and then quickly sank them into the lake of his heart.

Just as Mrs. Zhen had instructed, Bo Ling accompanied Shen Jichuan for a walk around the garden in the General's Mansion.

Since the delivery of Jin Mingqiu, she has come here almost every day, regardless of the weather.

Most of the time, the two of them would not talk about serious matters like today, but just chat about their respective experiences.

Shen Jichuan talked about a lot of folk customs in the northern border, and also told some interesting things he encountered on the battlefield over the years. Occasionally, Bo Ling could also pick up the conversation—because there are some stories in it. She has.

Every time at this time, Shen Jichuan felt that the conversation was more interesting.

Shen Jichuan asked about Boling's future plans.

Bai Ling shook her head bluntly—she wasn't sure.

So far, the right to decide whether she will stay or not has never been in her own hands.

Bo Ling talked about the yard that Emperor Jianxi had drawn for her, about the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, and the rocking chair she had put under that tree before—I originally wanted to sit there and read a book in my spare time, but In actual operation, she found that there are often mosquitoes under the tree.

So since the beginning of summer, except for rainy days, it is generally impossible to sit in the yard.

So Shen Jichuan gave Bo Ling some more effective methods of repelling insects. After the refugee case in the camp in the south of the city, he had already looked at this young pharmacist with admiration, and he was willing to talk about it a few more times.

Shen Jichuan did meet some young and promising young people on the front line.Moreover, it is not uncommon for young generals who were sent out by worshiped generals at the age of twelve or thirteen and then returned triumphantly.If she wasn't a girl, she might be able to do something more useful instead of sitting in the palace every day.

Before parting that day, Shen Jichuan took the golden ball from the adjutant again.

"It's an interesting method." Shen Jichuan whispered, "Does this treatment have a name?"

Bo Ling looked at the iron ball in Shen Jichuan's hand.

"Exposure shock therapy," Burling replied.

Shen Jichuan repeated it in a low voice, and then clenched the Jin Mingqiu in his hand, "Thank you very much, and the medicine will not come tomorrow."

"how?"

"I'm really leaving this time." Shen Jichuan replied.

……

All the ministers from the six departments of the cabinet have gathered together in the meeting hall at this time.

Among the six ministries, three ministers were implicated in the case of Song Bozong's treason. In addition, the court was in turmoil during this period, and there was no time to formally fill the vacancy, so Sun Beiji promoted several people from the ministers of each ministries to serve as interim ministers.

At this moment, Sun Beiji was sitting in the first place, closing his eyes and recuperating, when the news came from the palace that the crown prince was coming to discuss matters together - this was really exciting.

It has been four days since Emperor Qitai died, and this is the first time the prince has appeared in these four days.

Soon the news from the eunuchs came from outside, and Sun Beiji and the remaining few courtiers all stood up at the same time and went out to meet him.
