In Europe and the United States, there are many films about this industry, such as "Dr. Edward", "The Sixth Sense", "Sophie's World", "Death Experiment", etc.

The classic movie "Good Will Hunting" is even based on this theme, telling the story of Professor Sean using psychology to cure Will, a janitor at the University of Massachusetts, a mathematical genius, and a troubled boy.

At the same time, with Will's sincerity and friendship, Sean also emerged from the shadow of his wife's death and started the second half of his life with hope.

In China, psychological counselors and psychiatrists have only gradually appeared on the screen in the past few years, but they are more often arranged in crime movies and police movies, such as "Psychological Crime" and "The Hypnotist". Full of horror. In the public relations urban drama "Perfect Relationship", the psychiatrist gets more screen time.

The male protagonist Wei Zhe (played by Huang Xuan) works as a public relations consultant and regularly makes appointments with a psychologist (played by Che Xiao) to treat psychological problems (acute anxiety disorder, fear of close contact).

In 2019, an urban drama with the theme of mental health was finally produced in China - "Falling in Love with You Healed Me".

This also shows that mental health has made great strides into the national horizon and has received more and more attention and acceptance.

In addition, it also conveys an important message: when people grow up eating grains, their bodies will get sick and their minds will catch colds. This is a natural law.

Consulting for psychological problems is just like going to the hospital when you feel unwell. It is a necessary and normal thing. It is a reflection of each of us caring for ourselves and pursuing a high-quality life.

In the play, the male protagonist Yan Shuren (played by Dou Xiao) is a psychiatrist, and the heroine Sun Shu (played by Miao Miao) is a psychiatrist. When Yan Shuren was studying for his Ph.D., he fell in love with his schoolmate Sun Shu.

Later, Yan's mother died in a car accident, and Yan proposed breaking up. Sun Shu failed to persuade him to stay, so he left the sad place and went to Japan to study and recover from his injuries.

A few years later, Yan and Sun were invited by their teacher Chen Yuangeng (played by Jin Shijie) to work in Si Kang Hospital.

In this drama, Yan Shuren and Sun Shu use their respective professions to cure many people with psychological disorders and psychological problems.

For example, bipolar disorder, bulimia, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, mutism, anxiety, even divorce, plastic surgery, etc.

These patients are trapped in the barriers of their own problems, feeling sad, painful, worried, depressed, and hopeless, unable to get out.

Yan, Sun, and Dean Chen use their expertise to protect the city's mental health.

In fact, Yan Shuren also suffered from trauma and once took antidepressants. His depression was mainly concerned with whether his mother's death in a car accident was a suicide or an accident.

And Yan’s mother also suffered from depression because her husband was killed. That year, little Shuren was 7 years old and very talented. It was also at this time that he met his lifelong mentor Chen Yuangeng.

Depression is a big black dog that bites the mother and son for many years. Yan Shuren was in great pain inside, but it was difficult to express it to the outside world. She could only lock herself up and push others away. Like the illustration in the room of the girl holding a cactus.

After Sun Shu learned the truth through his teacher Chen Yuangeng, he accompanied Yan Shuren through the bleak days one after another with tolerance, understanding, love, and professionalism, and finally ushered in rebirth.

As for Sun Shu, the breakup that year also brought her deep trauma and doubts about her relationship and life.

She also relied on her psychology major, positive and optimistic attitude, and Yan Shuren's love to get out of the sad world.

There is a very good saying in the play:

I remember when a consultation case was concluded last year, I gave the visitor a bookmark with a famous quote written on it:

< p> Each of us has a strong ability to heal ourselves and is an expert on our own problems. However, we also need social support systems, love, understanding, and companionship.

When our souls have a cold, we also need psychological counseling and treatment, which is also a light that warms our souls and illuminates our future.

In "Falling in Love with You Heals Me", psychological counseling and therapy are the main thread throughout the play. This is not accidental.

At present, mental illness has become an important factor endangering human health. Depression is expected to surpass cancer in 2020 and become the second largest disease in the world after cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

As for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, do you think it is just a physical disease? Oh no, psychological factors are also important triggers!

Last Friday, two 14-year-old junior high school girls in Longgang, Shenzhen jumped to their deaths together. If psychological crisis intervention had been carried out in advance, the cardamom years could have continued to bloom with youthful grace.

But there are no what-ifs in life. What we can do well is only every moment.

Psychological themes, whether as protagonists or supporting roles, have appeared in more and more domestic film and television dramas. Books, videos, and online platforms are hotly debated topics in psychology.

Everyone who values ??physical and mental health is willing to spare time and energy to understand his or her inner world, and seek professional assistance from psychological counselors and psychiatrists when needed.

During the COVID-19 epidemic, we have also seen that psychological assistance has brought very important changes to the psychological counseling and psychological reconstruction of people in both epidemic and non-epidemic areas.

From the perspective of the famous psychologist Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory, after we solve our physiological needs and have a worry-free life, we will develop step by step towards higher-level needs, pursuing security, Belonging, respect and self-actualization.

Our emphasis on and need for psychological counseling and treatment should be within Maslow’s expectations.
