A book written by a post -90s young girl in South Korea a few years ago, he recorded in detail the dialogue with psychological counselors for 12 weeks after depression and anxiety.Although the book named to die, I still want to eat spicy fried rice cakes, describing the "life with a good life" young people still feel empty and struggling with emptiness in their hearts.Books are available to the market and have received widespread attention after multi -language translation, and also allows people to start understanding and face -to -face thoughts of patients with mild depression.
This book will be mentioned, mainly because the company has heard a colleague's promotion of this book on the reading club held for the promotion of reading in the company every month.The young colleague who should be under 30 years old talked with sharing, and even revealed the true feelings. He mentioned how he could not "feel happiness" after losing his relatives for a long time, but he had to pretend to be okay in daily life and work.The cheerful behavior covers her inner uncomfortable.She pointed out that this was why she resonated with the author and was healed by books.
Impression is that colleagues described themselves like "a slight cold" during that time. The symptoms are not serious enough to allow themselves to ask for sick leave, but this does not mean that they are OK or okay.
In the workplace, because few people take the initiative to put their personal affairs and minds under the spotlight, the sharing of that time for colleagues made me realize that I could find "safe space" in the office environment to discuss psychological diseases and problems.It is precious and fortunate to have no prejudice and criticism when responding to the shared by other colleagues present.At the activities of reading clubs, everyone around the long table or discussion or questioning around the meeting. Among them, some in charge did not disclose that they had been trapped in depression and shared how they overcome and walked through the difficult journey.
Recently, the psychological health problems of young people in Singapore have attracted much attention again.According to the new statistics released by Singapore's aid institutions, 476 people have committed suicide last year, and the suicide rate has set the highest record in 22 years.Among young people aged 10 to 29, suicide has become the main cause of death, and light students from 20 to 29 are also the most.Singapore's aid agencies pointed out that the number of help telephones received during the crown disease epidemic increased, showing that the suicide rate was rising or the social restrictions during the epidemic and the increase in pressure from all aspects.
There are not many data and research on the suicide of young people, and it is relatively fragmented. Therefore, it is extremely difficult to truly judge that the rising suicide rate of young people is extremely difficult.We should pay more attention to this issue.When the New York Times talked about the popularity of domestic teenagers, the phenomenon of self -harm and suicide, it described it as a "psychological illness crisis" related to life and death.How to respond to the needs of young people with specific places such as workplace.
This column article hopes to focus more on how the workplace can play more important roles to support and catch up with those 20 to 29 years old, to enter the society from the competition system of further studies, and to change to different environments.Frequent new people in the workplace.This is mainly because of the campus, this issue is less discussed and more complicated.
Many times, especially in the Asian society and traditional mechanisms, companies generally do not know how to deal with employees with a history of psychological diseases, and even human experts suggest that job seekers not to disclose their medical history.In the working environment that emphasizes and pay attention to performance, even if the boss or supervisor knows that the subordinates are facing stress or uncomfortable, sometimes in response to the right measures and maturity, or the parties do not understand patients with psychological diseases, they can give limited support for support.Even in terms of words and behaviors, it will cause secondary damage to subordinates.
In fact, everyone grows up because of the large and small trauma that has been experienced. Many young people now pay more attention to mental health and clearly realize the principle of "not OK and OK".Entering the consulting room or receiving psychological counseling is no longer resistant, but in the workplace that requires people to perform well, young employees need to remove the set mask of the socially set people, and it is not easy to show their weak side.
I once talked with an intern who was still studying, and also found that due to the fierce competition in the future, many college students now have an average of at least four or five internship experiences during their studies.The intern told me that he and his classmates were like ducks. They looked very comfortable and elegant on the surface, but in fact, the academic and work pressure they were affected was quite high.Essence
For the time of the 20th to 29th years, the development of psychologist Erik H. Erikson has proposed the concept of "Psychosocial Moratorium" to reflect that modern people have been at the end of the youth and the end of the youth.Adult self -identification in the early period of elastic flow.For example, the process of caterpillars turned from the restraint of pupae to a butterfly. During this period, they were unstable due to conflicts and contradictions that needed to run in due to their inner values and social values.It looks like.
In the workplace, I often think about how to help these young people who have just started working, in addition to guiding them and some hard knowledge, soPutting their thoughts.When I knew that I was writing this comment, Wang Liting, a former official member of the psychological disease issue, pointed out that especially during the epidemic, many companies adopted the form of home office. The latter training after many freshmen in the workplace was ignored.I don't understand the company's program, and I am not familiar with work partners.Wang Liting said: "Many people may feel isolated, even high students may doubt their self -ability."
It may not be easy to give employees a "psychological leave" to employees in general enterprises, but Wang Liting, who is also a social entrepreneur, believes that if employers want to pay more attention to these freshmen in the workplace or face up to psychological diseases, they should consider all resources and give them more resources and give it to give it to give it and give it to give it to give it and give it to give it.Each employee's mental health emergency training, including learning how to listen to colleagues' sharing problems, how to respond and help those who are in danger when they do not make judgments, so that they can get the professional care they need.At the same time, in addition to the "safe space" like reading clubs, some workplace has also begun to set up space for employees to relax, such as a quiet "decompression room" or "recharma room", which helpsImprove the response mechanism of psychological diseases in the workplace.
Of course, many of us think that we have not been trained and cannot become supporters, but this should not be an excuse to ignore people around us. After all, professional training is not a necessary condition for companionship.If there are more workplaces to open a larger security mutual aid network, it should play a key role and give people those who need assistance to get appropriate attention and response.
