Psychological problems of the elderly

Hello! I don't think the elderly have any psychological problems. He just feels lonely and wants the attention of his children. What she needs most is someone to chat with her. The following are some psychological states of the elderly, and I think it may be helpful for you to have a look.

When people get old, their psychology will also change. If you don't understand their psychological changes, sometimes it will be ridiculous or unreasonable. In fact, there are basically several mental States of the elderly:

Insecure. They will worry all day: what if I have no income? What should I do if I get sick in the future? What should I do if I give my child trouble? At this time, children should always tell their parents: "Don't worry, we will take care of you anyway, don't worry." Solve their worries.

Without self-confidence, I always worry that my children will dislike me. People are old, deaf, dizzy, their teeth have fallen out, their legs and feet are not flexible, and their brains are not working well. They will feel useless and a burden. I remember my grandmother, who was hard of hearing in her later years, but every time we talked to her, she always pretended not to hear. Once I asked her, "Grandma, you obviously didn't hear me. How can you promise us? " Grandma said, "well, I'm afraid you think it's too uncomfortable to talk to me, bother me and ignore me." I still remember that every time I went to see her at that time, she would always add, "I washed them all, but they were clean." Don't mind my dirty old woman! " Grandma died, and I still feel sad when I think about it.

Therefore, please encourage and praise the elderly as much as possible, and ask them more questions when you encounter something, such as: "Mom, you have to live well for us. What can we do without you? " Or "hey, ginger is still spicy, dad, I really don't listen to you." You should give me more advice in the future. " Secondly, we should increase physical contact with the elderly: rubbing their backs, shoulders, hugs and kisses. Please believe that such hugs and kisses will definitely bring great happiness and pleasure to the elderly.

I often feel lonely and desolate. Children should spend more time visiting and accompanying their parents, chatting with them, cooking and eating together, as the song goes: "... parents don't want their children to make too much contribution to the family, so it's not easy to get together for life ..."
