What are the most prevalent or serious psychological problems among college students today

Taking myself and my classmates and friends around me as an example, I feel lazy and afraid that I won't be able to find a job. I think college students are useless.

Melancholy, depressed, confused, dull, extreme, irritable, insomnia, etc.

Employment problems, and some psychological problems in the society, the most important thing is confusion and helplessness.

The most common psychology of college students is that they don't know what to learn when they are in school.

What will help you with later employment.

I look forward to what a good job I will have in the future.

Pry into classes that don't interest you.

Then there's the issue of love.

Postgraduate Entrance Examination Questions.

I feel that my low self-esteem is the worst.

They're right, that's all the questions you had when you were in college, and they were always unrealistically fantasizing.

Contemporary college students are under more and more pressure, and there are more and more psychological problems, such as confusion, loneliness, depression, anxiety, etc., which may cause extremely serious consequences if not channeled in time!

I am the dividing line of silence.

There are many reasons for these psychological problems, and here are some of the most common psychological problems that can easily occur and the causes of such psychological problems:

From high school to university, the unfamiliar environment, different from the rigorous learning atmosphere of high school, without the teacher's urging all day long, they don't know what to do, which is a big reason for the confusion of college students, many college students don't know how to spend college life to the fullest, don't know what to do in the future, can only spend every day in a mess, and the whole person is also decadent.

Confused. A big reason for the anxiety of college students is peer pressure, others will not you, you are easy to be anxious, especially in some competitions, graduation, further education, etc., it is easy to bear that others are better than yourself, resulting in self-doubt, and the whole person is very anxious.

Anxiety. It is often said that university is like a small society, in the society to deal with interpersonal relationships, and roommates, classmates, and teachers, this is a very important interpersonal relationship, many people are sensitive and introverted, often do not know how to deal with interpersonal relationships, resulting in themselves alone, very withdrawn, people are social animals, alone for a long time is easy to have psychological problems.

Eccentric. High school is considered early love, college can be free to fall in love, many people are crazy for love, crazy for love, for love to hit the wall, this kind of person is also easy to get hurt, so, how to deal with the relationship in love is also the top priority, it is easy to be depressed if you don't handle it well

Depression. The above psychological problems are very common among contemporary college students, and they are also very easy to appear, and there are some examples of this around meWhether you are in college or later in society, you will face these problems, and only by strengthening your heart can you calmly face all kinds of difficulties in life

1. Emotional problems.

Love is the most delicate and the most prickly rose, a considerable number of college students' love values are not yet mature, they often rely on their adolescent impulses, to see anything very beautiful, once they encounter problems, often unprepared, unbearable. In addition, in college, classmates and roommates have male (female) friends, but they are still single, so there will be problems such as psychological gap, emotional instability, and even falling in love for the sake of falling in love.

2. Academic problems.

Anxiety caused by study stress.

Nowadays, universities have strict requirements for students' learning. If they fail several courses, they are in danger of losing their degree or even dropping out, which can cause a certain amount of psychological stress on students. In addition, universities pay more attention to students' self-learning ability, and some students have poor grades due to improper learning methods, resulting in frustration and anxiety.

A moderate level of anxiety and the necessary arousal and nervousness are necessary for people to study and work, but persistent and severe anxiety can make a person lose self-confidence, interfere with normal thinking, and thus hinder learning.

3. Adaptability.

One of the more common psychological problems is adjustment disorder, especially after arriving at university, there is no way to adapt to a new environment, and at the same time, there may be no way to establish a good relationship with your new classmates and dormitory classmates, so there will be anxiety, depression and many other emotional reactions.

4. Anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, etc.

Anxiety disorders. This symptom is mainly characterized by generalized and persistent anxiety or recurrent panic and anxiety, and is often accompanied by physical symptoms such as dizziness, chest tightness, palpitations, shortness of breath, dry mouth, frequent urination, urgency, sweating, tremor, etc. Test anxiety is a common manifestation of anxiety among college students.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder. Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is mainly manifested as spontaneous repetitive behaviors or thoughts, but they know that they are unnecessary but cannot control them, and at the same time, they are accompanied by painful emotional experiences, so that they affect their normal study and life. Patients are often in great distress themselves, but they are reluctant to let others know.

Severe obsessive-compulsive disorder requires a major**, and sometimes a temporary suspension or even dropout** is also necessary.

Depression. The more common symptoms are some manifestations of depression, mainly depressed mood, lack of interest, depression all day long, and even grievances, tears in the face, no hope for the future, low self-esteem, self-blame and so on.

5. Psychological pressure brought about by employment pressure.

Finding a job for college graduates is a common problem, and finding a dream job is even harder. The various problems encountered in the process of choosing a career have brought a lot of pressure to the graduating college students. This pressure is vented through some unfair channels, such as littering, drinking and fighting, and being negative and misanthropic.

In the book "College Psychology", Lin Zhengfan summarized some common psychological problems of contemporary college students, and I believe that they are quite common. Always ask yourself, what would college and graduate school be like if you had the opportunity to do it all over again? Of course, I didn't start over, but I can still summarize and reflect.

1) Lack of self-awareness development. Traditional education in China often requires "taking care of everyone and abandoning the small family", "thinking about others", "thinking about the family, thinking about the parents". There is nothing wrong with this kind of education in itself, but it is based on the fact that we have enough self-awareness.

However, due to the lack of self-awareness education in the basic education stage, when it comes to university education, college students do not even know who they are, what characteristics they have, what ideals they have, and what majors they like to study, so they are easy to fall into confusion and confusion.

(2) Lack of interpersonal skills. College students crave intimate relationships but don't know how to build them, and among college students, especially among college girls, they either build unclear or bad relationships with classmates. This is often due to simplistic (centre-centred) or poor interpersonal communication patterns in their families of origin, as well as a lack of opportunities to practice interpersonal communication skills at the basic education level.

3) Lack of positive emotional experiences. Most college students' emotional experience is healthy, but there are also some students who have more experiences of loneliness, nervousness, depression, anxiety, etc., so that they have more positive emotions, which is also the specific content of college mental health work.

(4) The problems of love, marriage orientation, and broken love are more prominent. The rapid development of the modern economy and the quick success and quick profit of the society also have a direct impact on the love concept of college students; The economic status of the other party's family, whether the other party can become a "meal ticket" during college, etc., affect the love behavior of college students. The indiscretion of romantic relationships has also made the phenomenon of falling out of love a common phenomenon on campus.

5) Conflict between sexual psychology and sexual morality. At the special age of college students, the maturity of sexual physiology, the lack of sexual psychological development, and the restriction of sexual morality on sexual behavior are also the reasons for the internal repression of college students. Some college students break through the view of sexual morality and have sex with the opposite sex, but they are not fully prepared psychologically and behaviorally, and the result is very confused, especially some female students are extremely regretful; There are also some students who have nowhere to put their energy into it, and sexual impulses and pressures become the focus of their lives, leading to social and learning disabilities.

(6) Bad network behavior. Internet behavior is a necessary behavior of contemporary college students, through which knowledge and information can be obtained, and interpersonal communication can be obtained. However, there are also some college students who experience excessive behavior on the Internet and even Internet addiction.

Online dating and cybercrime also appear from time to time.

7) Inappropriate career planning and career goals. When the college entrance examination is voluntarily filled, most students do not understand the major, often rely on their own subjective imagination, and lack of career planning education and employment guidance after entering the university, coupled with the objective economic problems of the society, the employment of college students has become one of the most onerous issues in the work of college students.

Common psychological problems among college students:

1) Academic issues.

Problems such as lack of motivation to study, feeling pressured in learning, not achieving the expected learning goals, unsatisfactory academic performance, and learning difficulties are common among college students. Because some college students have never been able to enter the learning state, they are always passive learners under the pressure of exams, and some students with weak self-control ability are often addicted to surfing the Internet and playing games, so that they feel that learning is difficult and will feel very miserable, and then produce boredom and anxiety in the face of exams.

2) Emotional problems.

Stable and positive emotions play an important role in the mental health of college students and the growth and success of students. The main negative emotions of college students are depression, anxiety, and emotional imbalance.

During college, students are unable to control their emotions due to the influence of exams, emotions, love and frustration, resulting in mood swings, moodiness, difficulty in controlling their emotions, and inability to maintain a normal psychology.

(3) Interpersonal and adjustment problems.

Compared with middle school, college students are more open to participate in various forms of social activities, social practice activities and other forms of communication, and college students in the new interpersonal relationship put forward new and higher requirements for students' interpersonal communication. College life can be said to be a small society, from passive interaction in high school to active interaction in college, in the process, due to the lack of social experience of college students, anxiety and difficulties.

In addition, there are some students who lack the ability and courage to express their thoughts in public, and are unwilling to participate in some activities, resulting in interpersonal barriers, which directly affects the full potential of college students.

When entering the university, college students are faced with a new learning and living environment, learning goals, learning methods, etc., breaking the old equilibrium state, and the new equilibrium state will produce adaptive psychological problems before the establishment of the new equilibrium state, which is mainly manifested in the freshmen who have just entered the university life.

4) Dependence on mobile phones, computers, and networks.

With the development of society and technology, electronic products have been popularized to every family, which brings convenience to people's lives but also brings some negative effects to people. Some college students have developed a dependence syndrome on mobile phones, computers and the Internet, which endangers their physical and mental health. One is that the radiation generated by the unrestricted use of electronic products affects the health of students, and long-term poor sitting posture will have to chase the disease, and the birth period is not good for the eyes.

Second, the performance in learning is that college students directly check the homework answers from the Internet, and will not use their brains to solve problems, which greatly reduces the ability of college students to think about problems and their enthusiasm for learning. The third is to rely on electronic products for a long time, staying up late to brush the circle of friends, Douyin, online games, etc., will break the law of life, and once you leave, you will have extreme emotional changes.

Common psychological problems among college students:

1. Environmental adaptation. It is more common among freshmen.

2. Learning problems. The common learning problems of college students are mainly manifested in the following aspects: learning purpose, learning motivation, learning method, learning attitude, and poor academic performance.

In college, learning is often no longer valued by the vast majority of people as it is in high school, and unclear purpose, lack of motivation, and poor attitude constitute the main aspects of learning problems.

3. Interpersonal problems. How to get along with the students around them and establish harmonious interpersonal relationships is an important issue faced by college students. Compared with high school, college students pay more attention to interpersonal problems than studying, and they have become one of the main psychological distress of college students.

Interpersonal problems often manifest themselves as difficulty getting along with others, lack of close friends, lack of necessary communication skills, excessive compromise, etc., as well as the resulting painful feelings of loneliness, depression, lack of support and love.

4. Love and sexual psychological problems. College students are in the middle and late stages of their youth, sexual maturity is an important feature, and love and sexual problems are inevitable. Generally includes:

Unrequited love, frustration in love, relationship problems between love and school, revenge psychology due to emotional breakdown, etc., while common psychological sexual problems are: fear, anxiety, and worry caused by premarital sex, campus cohabitation, etc.

5. Personality and emotional problems. Personality disorder is a serious psychological disorder among college students, and its formation is related to growth experience, and the reasons are more complex, mainly manifested as low self-esteem, cowardice, dependence, neuroticism, extremism, hostility, isolation, depression, etc.

6. Job search and career choice are common problems among senior college students. When they step into society, they often feel a lot of confusion and worry. Questions such as how to choose one's career, how to plan one's career, and what skills are needed to find a job will all bring more or less troubles and worries.

7. Neurotic problems. Long-term sleep difficulties, anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive, hypochondriasis, and phobia are all clinical manifestations and symptoms of neurosis.
