Crazy Psychologist

But speaking of it, Muchun felt that besides being arrogant and arrogant, Zhang Mei was also a very enthusiastic and charitable person. For example, she helped Liu Pei establish a charity organization such as the Home for Lost Orphans to help some parents. Get through the tough times together and re-embrace your current life.

Speaking of human mental health, it involves all aspects of human life. It always requires all kinds of people to work together, support each other, and extend their hands when necessary, without fear of being laughed at, let alone being questioned and let down.

But these things are not easy to say, let alone do, especially because it is not like seeing a doctor or taking medicine, which seems to have immediate results, nor is it like factory production of parts, where increased production will naturally produce more parts.

Thinking about it, Muchun walked to a brand new physical and mental clinic on the third floor of the outpatient building. There was a doctor he was very familiar with sitting inside the door.

"Good afternoon, Doctor Mu." Mu Xiao, wearing a white coat, stood up and greeted Mu Chun.

A familiar smile, a charming smile, a sunny smile.

That's right, Mu Xiao, he lives up to his name, with a smile on his face and a smile on his face.

"Doctor Mu? What's wrong with you? Are you worried?" Mu Xiao saw Mu Chun standing stupidly motionless outside the door and could only say hello again.

"No, I'm just stuck." Muchun said with a smile.

Mu Xiao smiled, "Stuck? Then I'll check the "A Certain Magical Index" or "The Legend of Merlin" to see what kind of spell can help you return to this time and space?"

Mu Xiao was really joking. Mu Chun was stuck because when Mu Xiao called him "Doctor Mu", Mu Chun didn't know what to call Mu Xiao.

Is it also "Doctor Mu?"

There should be no other way to address him. "Good afternoon, Dr. Mu. Am I here early?" Mu Chun said.

"Haha, it turns out it's stuck here. Speaking of which, I also feel weird, so the two of us can't work in the same hospital. It's really a pity."

Mu Xiao took out a red cup with a big snowflake on it. Mu Chun felt that the cup looked very familiar, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

Speaking of which, my memory has not been completely restored. Would it be better to go to Zhang Wenwen for some neurological examinations?

Still, Mu Chun shook his head and thought, "How can it be so unbearable? Could it be that whatever Mu Xiao holds in his hand looks familiar to him? This is too strange.

Who knew, Mu Xiao said, "Do you recognize this cup? It belongs to you."

"Mine?" Muchun shook his head.

"Well, it's yours. I bought it when we went to Sweden together. I said that in Sweden, you should buy some blue and yellow items, which is more in line with their color preferences. But you insist that this red cup is more It looks good, and the blue and yellow cups remind you of that big box from IKEA, so I bought this one.”

Mu Xiao said while waiting for the coffee to slowly pour into the red cup, and then handed the cup to Mu Chun's hand.

"You used to like to add sugar to your coffee, do you still add it now?" Mu Xiao asked.

"Ah, no sugar is added now, but sometimes seven ice cubes are added like Zhang Wenwen did." Mu Chun answered truthfully.

Hearing Zhang Wenwen's name, Mu Xiao burst out laughing, "Is Zhang Wenwen a good person? He is really the most liberal and undisciplined doctor I have ever seen, but speaking of his professionalism, he is still pretty good. Moreover, I have a very good relationship with professors from abroad, and I am always full of energy."

"Yes, Zhang Wenwen is good, very good." Muchun also praised Zhang Wenwen.

"However, Dr. Zhang has always said that Muchun is really talented. Dr. Muchun is simply a strange person. He never does things according to rules but often has miraculous results. I really want to see if Muchun's brain circuit is different from ordinary people. Ah." Mu Xiao said and sat down, and Mu Chun also sat down quietly opposite her.

Suddenly no one spoke in the clinic, and there was no sound of the air conditioner.

The air conditioning in this place is really good, and it makes no sound.

Mu Chun suddenly didn't like the silence in front of him, because in such a quiet situation, he would think of the time he spent studying with Mu Xiao.

He didn't know whether it was better for the two of them now to reminisce about the past or to concentrate on doing their jobs. After all, Mu Xiao seemed to have a lot of work to complete, and she also had a new doctor at the Zhinan Affiliated Medical Center. Outpatient work.

"When did you decide to work here?" Muchun asked.

"It was the dean who had a chat with me. It was also because of you and because you have done several beautiful and great things, so the mental health office has also put forward some requirements for major hospitals, hoping that qualified hospitals can do it. The mind-body clinic was opened first, so I came here. Of course, I came here not because of my own ability, but because of Professor Chu's recommendation." Mu Xiao explained modestly.

Muchun immediately waved his hand, "Professor Chu told me that Zhinan asked the professor to recommend outstanding graduates majoring in psychosomatics, but in fact there were not many who were really willing to work in the hospital, right? Later, he There have been no enrollment in this major for two years, so it is not at all whether the hospital has the conditions to open a psychosomatic outpatient clinic. Our investment in medical treatment is still very large. It is not too difficult to open a psychosomatic outpatient clinic. The difficulty is in the professional It’s hard to find psychosomatic doctors, and the key is the lack of talent.”

Mu Xiao understood what Mu Chun meant. It is best for the psychosomatic clinic to be closer to the patients. If there is only one hospital with a psychosomatic clinic, many people will be too lazy to go see a doctor because it is too far away. However, if there is a psychosomatic clinic within a few kilometers, the patient consultation rate may be greatly improved. improve.

Especially in a crisis situation, such as a depressed patient with suicidal tendencies, he may not want to go to the hospital if it is too far away. In most cases, such patients will not travel more than ten kilometers to talk to a psychopsychiatrist. .

After exchanging a few words, Mu Xiao placed a notebook and a portfolio in front of Mu Chun.

"What is this?" Muchun asked.

"Does it look familiar to you?" Mu Xiao said while holding the coffee.

After Mu Chun agreed, he opened the notebook first. A large number of notes and cases were densely recorded in the brown notebook. From the handwriting analysis, it turned out that most of the notes were written by Mu Chun himself.

There is a shallow fold on the right side of each page. The handwriting next to the fold is not Mu Chun's. Mu Chun guessed it should be Mu Xiao's handwriting.

This is their common recording method, leaving a blank column of about five centimeters for the other party to add comments and supplementary content.

This notebook looks a bit old, maybe it has been used since college.

Muchun read the content on the first page, which was about cases of obsessive-compulsive disorder, the second page, the third page, the fourth page, and the fifth page.

"These are all..." Mu Chun raised his head and looked at Mu Xiao, but hesitated to speak.

"It's okay. You can ask whatever you want. Your memory may still be lacking. Maybe I can help you with something." Mu Xiao replied.

"Okay, thank you Mu Xiao." After speaking, Mu Chun continued to focus on the notebook.

A third of the way through, Muchun saw a case called Xiao Lanping.

Xiao Lanping should be a pseudonym. The case was recorded 6 years ago, when Muchun was still in college. The protagonist of this case went to major hospitals in Raohai City to seek help, and later found Professor Chu.

Muchun followed this girl named Xiao Lanping for two months and recorded many aspects of her life at that time.

"Is she a tic patient?" Mu Chun asked Mu Xiao after reading.

"Yes, tics, or [Tourette's syndrome], this disease is rare, but you have encountered such patients and have studied some treatments."

Speaking of this, Muchun's memory recovered a little.

Yes, the girl was 16 years old at the time and is now in her early 20s. She was a very hard-working girl. Her symptoms were very severe, including rare tics and obscene speech, and she had an irritable temper.

The first onset of the disease occurred when I was 7 years old. When I first entered elementary school, I was ridiculed by many classmates because I couldn't keep quiet in class. My parents were invited to the school many times, but there was nothing they could do.

In the second half of the semester, the teacher suggested that Xiao Lanping be transferred to a third-tier primary school with relatively less academic pressure. She did not have to study at the best primary school in the county. This would not be good for the child and put a lot of pressure on the parents.

Xiao Lanping's father is a man who cares about face and has a hot temper. Our family can go to the best elementary school in the county. Why do you want me to go to an ordinary elementary school?

In Xiao Lanping's own words, she felt aggrieved at the time because she couldn't control those weird movements and the urge to talk nonsense.

Later, after being beaten countless times by her father, she still despaired. Every time it was because she couldn't help but twitch. Her muscles were so tense that she would feel better if she twitched. The twitching of her neck was indeed not good-looking, but daddy would find it annoying sometimes.

It is said that the daughter is the lover of the father in the previous life, but there is no such thing at all. From Xiao Lanping's point of view, she is the greatest shame of her father.

She is never allowed to go out on weekends, and she is not allowed to participate in any extracurricular activities.

Xiao Lanping likes to sing and wants to join the school's choir interest class. She begs her father to talk to the teacher, saying that she will only participate in the class and not participate in the semester performances. She asks the teacher if it is okay, but Xiao Lanping's father dumps her. He went to the ground and said: "You are such a monster, who dares to let you join the choir? If you join other children's parents, won't they go to school and make a fuss?"

I'm telling you, don't go anywhere. Just stay home for me after school. You are not allowed to go anywhere. Don't embarrass me by going out. I will treat you as my daughter. "

After saying that, she and her mother Li Xiaofang were left at home, staring with big eyes.

Xiao Lanping is very beautiful. When he does not have these symptoms, he looks like a very beautiful and energetic middle school student.

"What happened to her?" Mu Chun looked up at Mu Xiao.

"Later, as you wrote in your notes, her mother was the only person in the family who believed that her daughter was just sick and could be cured. Everyone else was very indifferent to the girl, but fortunately, she had her mother's love for Xiaolan. Say enough is enough.

Because of Xiao Lanping's strange disease, Xiao Lanping's father and mother finally divorced after she entered middle school. In the father's view, he was considered worthy of the mother and daughter. They said that a child cannot be complete without a child. Family, so I have swallowed my anger for so many years. Now that my child is in middle school and is no longer a child, you two can always let me go and let me raise my head and be a human being. "

Muchun nodded helplessly, such a thing was not uncommon.

Li Xiaofang received half of the family's savings, but the house and stocks were all taken by Xiao Lanping's father on the grounds that he had been wronged for so many years, and he was unwilling to let any of them out.

A total of 100,000 yuan, Li Xiaofang took 12-year-old Xiao Lanping everywhere. During holidays, they went to the hospital for medical treatment, from the county hospital to the city hospital and then to the hospital in the big city by train. Finally came to the sea.

In order to save Xiao Lanping from being discriminated against by others in his hometown, Li Xiaofang and Xiao Lanping discussed that they would not go to school after graduating from junior high school. Her mother would go to a big city to work, and you could read as much as you want at home and play whatever you want. We Don't go out and look at other people's faces. If you go online at home, no one will know there is something wrong with you. Everyone will think you are a normal girl. If you just post photos, many people will like you.

Li Xiaofang is right. Xiao Lanping is indeed very popular. She also met a lot of friends online, chatting about animation and games together. We are all middle school students. Let’s just say they are all going out to party around the sea. Xiao Lanping She didn't dare to speak, she was so scared.

Another important reason why Xiao Lanping is increasingly afraid of interacting with people in real life is her Tourette Syndrome and a very strange little move.

In Xiao Lanping's own words, the symptoms of Tourette's speech won't be particularly severe as long as I don't get very excited or quarrel with my mother. Because I don't go out very often, I feel nervous when reading books, especially novels. Relax. After relaxing, I won’t talk non-stop and my tics will decrease.

But it was difficult to change that little movement. Instead, it was when she concentrated on playing games that she would not have the attack.

That little trick was that Xiao Lanping would poke something with her finger from time to time. When she was little, she couldn't help but poke other classmates, or poke pencil cases and books. In order to make this thing not look so bad, Xiao Lanping He tried every possible means to poke his own arm instead of poking other things. He would only poke something other than his own body very occasionally when he couldn't control it at all.

In the process of fighting against his own body, Xiao Lanping could be said to be exhausted.

I took countless medicines, ranging from inattention to ADHD, medicines to treat epileptic seizures, and countless nutritional supplements. In Xiao Lanping's own words, "I have taken too many medicines. Why?" Maybe it’s clear what I ate, but now I’m worried that I will always have to rely on my mother to take care of me and that I will never be able to find a job.”

Muchun took a deep breath after reading Xiao Lanping's case.

Mu Xiao quickly comforted her: "Don't worry too much, she was fine afterwards and kept going around the sea, and recently she also made a boyfriend, a patient with the same Tourette syndrome.

"Really? A boyfriend also suffers from Tourette's syndrome?" Muchun simply didn't know what to say.

"Yes, although humans have records of this disease 2000 years ago, there is still no good treatment to this day. You must know that this is too common in our field.

Symptoms of barking, muscle twitching, grimacing, strange gestures, and involuntary swearing and swearing are seen in every race, every culture, and every social class, although the number of people with Tourette syndrome is small. , but the distribution is very even.

Any disease will bring duality. On the one hand, it brings a strong self-need, which in the case of Tourette's syndrome is an irresistible impulse, various compulsions and driving forces.

What the patient does is completely against his will, or simply complies with the will of the 'disease itself'.

Therefore, the so-called "possession" or "possession" for patients with Tourette's syndrome may not be just an adjective. Mu Xiao held her chin and looked at Mu Chun, "Hey, I've finished talking, why don't you thank me or something?" "

Mu Chun smiled a little sheepishly, "I think you haven't finished speaking yet."

"Okay then." Mu Xiao shook her head and continued, "Modern medical research has provided many explanations for Tourette's syndrome. It was once thought that it was a 'moral' issue, a deliberate act, or a prank. , then because Freud was very curious about this symptom, it became a mental illness related to psychoanalysis, and then in the 1960s when drugs were popular, people began to use various drugs, such as haloperidine, to treat such patients.

Later, some people believed that Tourette's syndrome was a chemical disease caused by an imbalance of neurotransmitters in the brain."

When Mu Xiao said this, Mu Chun couldn't help laughing.

After Mu Xiao noticed that Mu Chun was laughing, he said unhappily, "Have you remembered it a long time ago? Are you pretending not to remember on purpose and want me to tell you a long story? Mu Chun, you Is this really appropriate for me? Don’t you think it’s too much?”

Mu Chun shook his head desperately with an innocent look on his face, "Xiaoxiao, I'm not, I'm not laughing at this, I just thought that you would say later that Tourette's syndrome exists in various industries, including the famous writer XXX who may be Tourette syndrome patients, a certain mathematician may also be a potential Tourette syndrome patient, and a certain musician may also be a Tourette syndrome patient, etc. When I think of the gossip you mentioned about celebrities, I think I really want to laugh."

Mu Xiao picked up a pencil and threw it at Mu Chun.

"Xiaoxiao is still so violent." Muchun said while grabbing the flying pencil with one hand.

"Eh? Your ability to grab a pencil with your bare hands has not deteriorated?" Mu Xiao said.
