Popularization of mental health knowledge: Classification of psychological types

Mental health is a word we often mention. Recently, people have paid more attention to this kind of health. So how much do you know about mental health? Here is a brief introduction to the classification of psychological types:

1. Psychological troubles

Psychological distress refers to temporary emotional problems caused by obvious social environment, such as natural disasters, man-made disasters, emotional frustrations, etc. You can identify and adjust yourself, and others may not notice it or fully understand it and provide effective help if they do. This type of distress generally does not require medication and can heal itself as the environment changes and time passes.

2. Psychological Problems

Psychological problems refer to certain personality deviations caused by factors such as poor education or cultural background. One can identify them but find it difficult to get rid of them. Others may be able to discover them but can only partially understand them. This type of problem requires adjustment by others or a psychologist, and medication can also be used as an auxiliary measure.

3. Psychological barriers

Psychological disorders refer to obvious personality deviations caused by adverse social environments and psychological factors. One can recognize them but cannot get rid of them, and others can often find them but find them difficult to understand. This type of disorder can be called neurosis, which generally requires adjustment by a psychologist. Drug treatment and psychotherapy are equally important.

4. Mental illness

Mental illness refers to obvious cognitive, emotional and behavioral disorders caused by biological factors such as genetic variation and abnormal brain structure. Generally, the patient cannot recognize and adjust himself. Others can easily recognize this abnormality, but non-professional help may not be effective. This type of illness is generally called mental illness, and drug treatment is the main treatment, which requires long-term psychological treatment and social supervision.
