Autism is a lifelong obstacle, and parents are always worried about autistic children. On the one hand, because the whole family has to bear social and economic pressure, the psychological pressure of parents (especially mothers) can be imagined; On the other hand, how parents adjust their psychology is often ignored, or there is no recourse. Maintaining such a depressed state for a long time is not only bad for parents' physical and mental health (premature aging, physiological decline, interpersonal and social adaptation obstacles, family problems, etc.). ), is not conducive to the rehabilitation of autistic children (parents' pressure will affect children's self-confidence and the correctness of behavior, thus directly or indirectly affecting children's training effect).

Therefore, parents' psychological adjustment is very important. You can try the following methods.

1. Admit the pressure and current situation you have experienced. First of all, we must abandon the wrong guilty mentality. We know that the cause of autism is mostly not the fault of parents, so there is no need to blame yourself or be too sensitive to the environment. On the contrary, parents can frankly admit the reality and actively seek all possible help and measures.

2. Make a rehabilitation training plan for autistic children rationally. It is necessary to master some knowledge about autism, pay close attention to the research status of autism, and then keep sincere cooperation with a formal training (research) institution according to family conditions and children's current situation to jointly formulate a rehabilitation plan. Of course, this plan can be divided into short-term, medium-term and long-term, which can not only help you maintain your confidence, but also maintain the continuity and stability of your training.

3. Form a "fighting" alliance with family members, families of other autistic children and professional institutions (including psychologists). Many hands make light work, and the existence of the alliance can make you always see hope and progress, and keep the psychological energy of fighting against the disease for a long time.

4. Find a professional psychologist regularly to adjust psychology and release negative emotions. This is very important and necessary.

5. Appropriate expectations. Autism is a difficult problem, and the prognosis of autistic children is also difficult to predict. Parents only need to ask themselves to do their best not to exceed the effect of forced mutation, because it is unrealistic.

6. Maintain a "mass" mentality. Autism is our common enemy. Parents can adjust their internal environment to the "public" mentality of fighting for all mankind, which can not only add endless fighting spirit to themselves, but also maintain emotional stability.

7. Never give up, never give up. The education and training of autistic children is not a one-day or two-day thing. As long as you pay, you will get a reward. This is a universal truth! With the improvement of human civilization, more and more people will fight side by side with you. With the continuous development of science and technology in the world, I believe that a truly effective treatment will be found one day.

Finally, as a professional worker of adolescent health and intervention, I sincerely hope that the majority of autistic children and their parents can be happy. Please believe that we will win!
