As a psychiatric specialist, I see too many people with mental illness every day and hear too many unfortunate stories. So I want to do my best to help more people with depression out of their predicament.
When I first graduated, I started working in outpatient clinics and found that not many people came to see me every day. Occasionally, a depressed patient comes to the doctor, butMost of them are older middle-aged and older people。Some of them are depressed because of family chores and their husbands' attitudes, and some of them are due to the fact that as the breadwinner of the family, they work hard but still can't earn money, which leads to increasing pressure. But in recent years, I've found out that I'm looking for emotional illnessThere are more and more young people, and there are even some teenagers
Once, when I was looking at a medical case, a parent with a child suddenly rushed in and shouted for me to save the child. The kid looked timid and kept trying to hide back. Parents say the child witnessed his peers abusing his rabbit at the age of 5 and has never been right since. In the beginning, kidsCrying all dayLater, when I saw something related to rabbits, I wouldTantrums。Later, the child does not go out and does not communicate with the parentsNo food or sleep, chanting the name of the rabbit all day long, and it has appearedSlowness of thinkingSymptoms too.
We have run to many hospitals, taken many medicines, and doctors always prescribe a whole bunch of Western medicines. Now the child looks a little sluggish and completely devoid of energy. So I want to try Chinese medicine, please save the child, he is only 8 years old. As she spoke, the parents cried. At this time, I noticed that a few strands of gray hair had appeared on the child's mother's head, which looks particularly dazzling in the sun.
I comforted the child's mother and looked at the child's tongue: the child had a crack on the tongue, a thick tongue coating, and some swelling on both cheeksWhen I speak, I stutter a little, repeat the sentences that have been said, think a little slowly, and my mood is not high, the pulse is weak.
Dialectic:Liver stagnation, poor qi, and mental instability
I told her that the child's condition could be cured. Depression is actually afraid of a flower。I'll prescribe a prescription for your child, let your child use it for one month, and then come back to me for a follow-up visit in the second month, and then I will adjust the plan according to the child's condition.
When the child came back for a follow-up examination a month later, it could be seen that he had become cheerful, no longer rejecting strangers, and was willing to take the initiative to communicate with others。This proves that the previous ** is on the right path. I asked the child how he was sleeping, and he said that he could fall asleep on his own, and accepted the fact that the rabbit had died, and wished the rabbit a happy life in Wang Xing. The child also said that in the future, he should study hard and become capable to save more rabbits. I am also very happy to see that the child is getting better and better. It is recommended that the family continue to give him medication to consolidate the effect.
Here's what I prescribed:Skullcap, Mai Mendong, Digupi, Psyllium, Licorice, Lotus Seed, White Poria Cocos, Astragalus, Ginseng.
Lotus seeds are the seeds of lotus flowers, and the "Compendium of Materia Medica" writes: "Lotus seeds are astringent and sweet, which can benefit the blood and qi of the twelve meridians, and settle the fire and evil spirits." The life of a hundred diseases is not separated from the fire evil, and the lotus is gasified and the heart is purified, so it eliminates all diseases. "Eating lotus seeds every day can relieve anger and make people happy. It can be described as a "miracle medicine" that blindly benefits and does no harm, which can clear away the "evil spirit" and unite form and spirit.
The lotus seeds are reused in the recipe and combined with othersRelieve liver and depressionThe combination of calming drugs is equivalent to reshaping the child's qiLetKidsofThe function of the organs returns to normal, so that the child can gradually move towards a positive stateGet rid ofDepression.
