today, the Wenchuan earthquake anniversary of the. Reporters revisited disaster area, looking for are still stick to the volunteers.
after the earthquake, a large number of counselors and psychological assistance, volunteers came to the disaster area, but most people leave in a hurry, take away the newly kindled the hope that recipients bring the secondary damage. Psychological assistance was daunting, even being demonized as a slogan of “fire, theft, anti-psychological counselor”.
4 years, the numerous heart injury of the affected people have recovered? There are volunteers in the stick?
the only volunteer organization in the Beichuan – Beichuan workstation, Institute of Psychology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 28-year-old Fang, head of Jiao said: “We need to do too much; can do it too little! people willing to do together, but also too little.

The surviving students of psychological abnormality fragile
topic talking about, they face pressures from the disaster area teachers.
surviving students, school inadvertently listen, lack of motivation to learn, and frequently drop out of school. Lectures, some children will pay close attention to the desk legs, slightly abnormal sound, we intend to push the table to escape. Not bear to criticize a teacher, classroom time and again out of control, coupled with a number of colleagues were killed, the dramatic increase in the quality of teaching affected them exhausted.
Beichuan Station was established, they plan to start from the school, training mental health backbone teachers. “Ensure that all primary and secondary schools in Beichuan, with at least one side if Jiao recalls, at first the teachers do not want to register, feel no sense psychology class. The rest is small, and great work.
“We look for cooperation in the Teachers Training College, the training included in the education hours, and finally to hire 120 people four years, training nearly 30 times, is still continuing. 120 teachers have not changed the baton gradually pass out. Today, Beichuan 1/3 of the principal does not understand that psychological counseling is not necessary.
thetraining locations tend not to Beichuan. “These teachers only completely out of the original living environment, it may be first out of the shadows.” Fang Jiao said, “When some teachers changed, and will be actively infected with colleagues and students.”
another focus of the work, but also schools. Beichuan station selected four primary and secondary schools, and send professional psychology teacher, a mental health demonstration lesson a week. “I hope the kids feel the pain I can experience joy and to help them tap the more beautiful life.”
demonstration lessons full video, video sharing to other schools, expand our coverage. “But we can intervene in the crowd, or very few. Four years, one-on-one effective intervention is not more than 2000 people.”/P>
, move into a new hard to move the hearts of large stone
initiative callers rarely, Fang Jiao and colleagues would often home visits.
“I do not conceal her identity, nor the initiative to ask the painful past, the first attempt to establish a good friend, and then his inner desire to voluntarily open their hearts.” Side if Kau softly said, “After all, no witnessed the disaster, can not truly appreciate their painful experience, at least to listen to accompany. “
a seven-year old woman, two years after the earthquake, still deny the reality of his wife passed away, all day self-blame: He did not want to go to Beichuan meeting all blame me, more than a reminder of a few volunteers to accompany the elderly chat, enlighten her to find a new hope, such as the grandson of future expectations. Earthquake killed many relatives, rarely between the surviving family is scattered. We encouraged her to strive to put the family back together. “
four years, heart to heart exchange, so that does not few people slowly coming out of grief, however, the time is not always healing.
last year after another moved into the new county seat of Beichuan, the mood of many people suddenly fell into a trough. Compared to the life of the board room, the more water, electricity overhead, increasing the pressure of the mortgage, mostly middle-aged migrant workers, the elderly and infirm left behind the main.
moved into a new house, the knot failed to move out. “Back to the empty house, less relatives accompanied, and some might even think of a big house in exchange for the lives of their loved ones.” Side if Kau added that “in the board room just to get to know new friends through thick and thin, and suddenly scattered, and also allow people to feel lonely, and re-addicted to the painful memories. “
some negative emotions seem to disappear, in fact, only suppressed at the bottom of my heart. As soon as possible to eliminate the strangeness, to identify with the new city again.
Institute of Psychology, Chinese Academy of Sciences survey shows that continuing psychological services, repeated to ease a protracted war. “
” Teahouse of the soul “to share the neighborhood pain
90% of the families in Beichuan lineal relatives within two generations was killed and 30% of households the number of killed the whole family of double-digit. Psychological problems after the earthquake will affect a generation or even generations.
side Kau visited lonely old people, orphans, orphans and disabled persons, loss of a child is unable to give birth again, parents, teachers, government officials, all belong to the high-risk groups most in need of psychological assistance.
Beichuan Station where the Palma district, over 5000 inhabitants, more than 300 mothers childless. Some age appropriate, but because of psychological reasons, difficult pregnancy or risk of miscarriage. “Some can not give birth again, and then adoptive baby. Can be had for a few years, more and more discontent, and often think of the victims children’s chatter adopted son.”
how to rebuild the confidence and hopes of these people? The volunteers heard that the locals like to drink tea, a “spiritual Teahouse will be open in the the Yongxing board room area, put tables and chairs, brew tea, to attract people out of the house. Sitting around drinking tea, chatting, and the new neighbors with each other
familiar with, but also shared their pain. The beginning of attendance is not high, two months later, the 10 tables is not enough, also acquired 5.
Sichuanese love to play mahjong, volunteers on the organization of the board, jump Guozhuang than calligraphy and painting, organizing multi-session karaoke contest, both 80 years old singing the “September 18″, 9-year-old children crooning “I Love Beijing’s Tiananmen Square”.
side Kau frankly, high-risk groups, officials of psychological intervention for at least. “Because they are too busy, it is difficult to track long-term.”
seven workstations are now only one
Institute of Psychology of the shock soon after intervention psychological relief in disaster areas on June 20, 2008 Recently, the built in Beichuan, Mianyang, Deyang, Mianzhu, Shifang and other seven volunteers workstation. Today, only Beichuan station also insisted on.
due to funding and other issues, the other site after another shut down. In April 2010, the Charitable Foundation of Jiangsu Far East for three years to donate 1.8 million yuan to help Beichuan station back to life. April 20 next year, three years about to expire. “If there is no follow-on funding, this station can only be closed, remote monitoring of high-risk populations, interventions can not be taken.” theside if Kau, within the Permanent five volunteers, all single, the age of 30, a Psychology background, without a full-time, monthly living allowance of less than 2000 yuan. Excitement when, once the Permanent Mission of 10 people, some of the students gradually facing graduation. “Go to colleges and universities to hire earthquake longer the more difficult strokes, warm and cold.”
four years, Beichuan station left the footprints of more than 2,000 volunteers. The waves of cramps to go, time is short, less than a week. If the side Kau analysis, some people are impulsive, harsh environment quickly scare off; some of the old under a small, helpless to leave; some really want to help the disaster area, but had plenty of theoretical knowledge, a lack of practical experience. Had volunteers to take a psychological counselor certificate, to comfort the victims, after listening to a few tears, he broke down and cried.
University majoring in psychology, but after all, is not professional psychological therapists. June 2010, the party if Kau resigned from the work of a newspaper in Jinan, came to Beichuan. 3-5 years after the earthquake, psychological assistance in the key to success in urgent need of volunteers and experts, but four years, taking a lot of, but few come. “
