Do you have these psychological confusions? Campus newbies, take a look

School is starting!

The wind of September brings the fruitful harvest of early autumn and the vigorous growth of dreams. Freshmen who have just stepped into the university campus are facing a new learning and living environment and new interpersonal relationships. Are they a little uncomfortable or have not had time to change their mental state? Here are some tips for you.

These psychological confusions

Do you have any?

Interval Psychology

The highly stressful study and life experience in high school is unforgettable for students. The three years of hard work in high school have caused many students to overdraw their physical and mental energy. The subsequent college life may relieve the psychological tension system of some students, leading to a decrease in learning motivation and lack of energy.

Ego

Some students believe that getting into college has accomplished the ultimate mission of their life, and gradually lose their fighting spirit in self-indulgence. They also feel that their academic performance in high school was good, and their performance in college will not be bad either, thus lowering their expectations of themselves.
Confused

Students have a very clear goal in high school, which is to strive for the college entrance examination. After entering university, some students have not yet established their life goals. The lack of goals often makes people lose their direction and become at a loss. In addition, university life is relatively free. If students are not good at arranging their studies and life independently, they may feel anxious, confused, and bored.

Lost Psychology

Some college freshmen fail to get into their ideal school or major, and they do not accept or agree with the school they are in and the major they are studying. Psychologically, they will have serious resistance and sense of loss.
In addition, some college freshmen idealize college life too much before entering college, but after entering college they find that real life is very different from what they imagined, and they are prone to emotional fluctuations and a sense of loss.
Nostalgia

After entering university, the change of lifestyle, habits and environment is a big challenge for students who lack the ability to take care of themselves and interpersonal skills. Some students may miss home, their parents and former classmates, and miss their past life.

Develop psychological adaptability

A wonderful university life is waiting for you

Psychological adaptability refers to a person's ability to take the initiative to take countermeasures according to the objective environment and adapt to the environment to a certain extent. It is closely related to the personality development of college students. College freshmen can enhance their psychological adaptability in the following aspects.

01

Improve your own abilities and integrate into university life as soon as possible

First of all, focus on self-cultivation of a sound personality, constantly enhance autonomy, judgment and sense of responsibility, and have a correct outlook on life and values.

Secondly, work hard to improve your learning ability so that you have the ability to conduct comprehensive analysis, solve problems and innovate continuously.
Secondly, enhance independent consciousness and improve the ability to make independent decisions and handle problems.
Finally, enhance interpersonal communication skills. Make more friends, treat others sincerely, be able to accept the strengths and weaknesses of others, be able to communicate well with others, and promote the growth and development of yourself and others through communication and sharing.
02

Learn to manage your emotions

After entering college, college students have to face challenges in study, interpersonal relationships, life, etc., which will produce positive and negative emotions. At this time, we should fully understand and recognize our emotions and deal with them in an appropriate way.

03

Facing setbacks correctly

Be brave enough to face setbacks. When you encounter setbacks, learn to divert your attention, reduce the negative impact of setbacks, and when your emotions are stable, focus on understanding the setbacks themselves, take positive actions, conduct a comprehensive analysis, find out the subjective and objective reasons for failure, and thus find strategies and methods to solve the problems.

Finally, I would like to remind all college students that if you encounter problems in life, study or interpersonal communication, or have psychological distress that is difficult to resolve, you must actively seek psychological assistance from professionals so that you can get out of the predicament as soon as possible and embrace the wonderful college life in a good emotional state.
