A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her

Chapter 16 Treatment Plan, Wild Vegetables

After returning to the room, bolting the door, Gu Qinghuan went straight into the space.

Without time to clean up, she turned on her computer with a glimmer of hope. Sure enough, the screen was pitch black. It seemed that neither the computer nor the mobile phone could be used.

Then there is no way to find out how to treat post-war stress disorder. Gu Qinghuan closed the computer disappointedly, hating himself for not knowing more at that time.

Although I now roughly know the cause of the disease, I don’t know how to help him treat it correctly.

Just when she was feeling lost, she suddenly saw a pile of books on the desk. She had an idea to find another way, so she quickly went to the vending machine on the first floor to verify it.

Type in the vending machine: books on the treatment of post-war stress disorder.

I didn't expect that this kind of book actually existed.

Gu Qinghuan directly bought two of the best-selling books.

Guidelines for the prevention and treatment of traumatic stress disorder

Handbook of Treatment for Traumatic Stress Disorder

After getting the book, Gu Qinghuan immediately began to read it eagerly.

Post-traumatic stress syndrome can be treated through daily conditioning, medication, physical therapy, psychotherapy, exercise therapy, etc.

Daily conditioning mainly focuses on creating a relaxed living atmosphere, allowing patients to maintain a happy mood and avoid excessive tension and anxiety.

The condition is more serious and must be treated with medication. The main medications are sertraline tablets, paroxetine tablets, etc. In addition, buspirone hydrochloride tablets, estazolam tablets and other drugs can also be used for treatment.

As for physical therapy, it needs to be assisted by transcranial magnetic stimulation, electroencephalogram therapy, etc., which is not possible in the current era, so we can only give up.

Psychotherapy requires doctors to conduct psychological education intervention, cognitive behavioral therapy, psychoanalytic therapy, etc., which can help change bad cognition and establish correct cognition.

When I have the chance, I will take him to a big city to see a psychologist. In this era, there should be psychologists, right?

The company and guidance of family members are also an indispensable medicine.

You can also do some exercise to help relieve stress and keep your emotions stable.

With a general understanding of the cause and treatment of the disease, Gu Qinghuan realized that the long-term life of being bound and isolated from the public, as well as the pain of being unable to take care of himself, were all factors that aggravated his symptoms.

This disease is actually similar to depression, but it is more difficult to treat than depression. Triggering his trauma points will make him lose his mind, and all previous efforts will be wasted if you are not careful.

If you want to cure him completely, you have to slowly let him return to normal life.

Thinking of this, she sat down, took out a pen and paper and wrote a treatment plan.

First of all, the quality of life must keep up. A comfortable environment is important, which can keep his emotions calm at all times.

The second is medicine, which you can try to buy from a vending machine.

Then comes the most important psychological treatment. The children have to talk to him more every day, allowing him to participate in the children's innocent world, slowly restore his sanity, establish correct cognition, help him gradually face the memories of the war correctly, and learn to deal with emotions and stress.

The most difficult part is exercise therapy. Later, you can slowly try to untie the ropes when he is awake and let him move around, starting from untying the legs and then untying everything, and try slowly.

In short, if you want to make him better, you can't tie him to the bed every day.

After making a simple plan, Gu Qinghuan went downstairs and came to the vending machine.

Try typing: sertraline

There is medicine, but it is a prescription drug. They will not sell it without a prescription.

Gu Qinghuan kept searching and finally found a store that didn't require prescriptions, but when he saw the prices, he was dumbfounded.

Damn it, the price is three times more expensive than other stores, why doesn’t he just go and grab it.

In other stores, a box costs eight dollars, which is still affordable, but this store charges twenty-four dollars a box.

Paroxetine is also a prescription drug. It costs three dollars a box in other stores, but nine dollars in this black shop.

The two drugs together cost thirty-three yuan.

The key is that there are only fourteen pills in a box, one pill a day, and it can only be taken for two weeks.

This means that I have to spend sixty-six dollars a month on medicine.

Fighting PTSD is a long-term thing. A rough calculation shows that it costs nearly 800 yuan a year on medicine. She suddenly felt like her wallet was leaking air.

Gu Qinghuan suddenly felt a sense of urgency to make money, otherwise she wouldn't be able to afford the medicine.

Although he said that he was reluctant, he still decisively placed an order for two drugs and planned to give them to Xu Huaian starting tomorrow.

Next is the daily relaxation routine: drink a glass of spiritual spring water, wash up, apply a facial mask, take a bath for half an hour to relax, and then you can go to bed.

A good night's sleep.

The adult and two children next door drank the spiritual spring water, ate their fill, and covered themselves with warm quilts, so they had a rare good sleep. Even Xu Huaian, who usually stayed awake until dawn, slept soundly.

In the big tiled house of Lao Xu’s family.

Liu Guifang stood in the yard with her hands on her hips, cursing.

"You two are more lenient than each other. You both want to save face. I am the only bad guy, right? If it weren't for my careful calculation, you wouldn't be living a good life now."

As Xu Huaizhi pushed his bicycle into the house, he heard his mother's voice, saying helplessly: "Mom, my second brother is already in this state. If you don't give him food, what will he eat? Will he starve to death?"

Moreover, you took away all his retirement pay and allowances, which added up to at least a few thousand dollars. You divided them up and were reluctant to even give him some food. It's really unreasonable.

Of course Xu Huaizhi was smart enough not to say this out loud.

"You are such a jerk, my food supply is low, it must be them!

That little bastard dared to bite me. If you hadn't stopped him, I would have taught them a lesson today.

Why did you give them fine grains? You only gave them 300 kilograms. If you don't manage a household, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are. In a year of famine, these 300 kilograms of grain are enough to support the whole family for a year!"

Liu Guifang was angry and started cursing.

Xu Huaizhi didn't dare to say anything else and secretly winked at his son who was watching the fun nearby.

Dacheng immediately understood and hurried over to hug grandma's legs: "Grandma, when is dinner time? I'm hungry."

"My dear grandson is hungry. Wait, I'll make it for you right away. I have some snacks in my room. I'll give you two to fill your stomach."

When the word "dim sum" was heard, a door in the west room opened instantly: "Mom, I want some dim sum too."

It is Liu Guifang’s youngest son, Xu Huaiyu.

Liu Guifang glared at him with disappointment.

"All he does is eat. He doesn't do anything serious all day."

However, when she took the snacks, she did not forget to take two pieces for her youngest son.

He was caught red-handed by Xu Meiling who was returning from work.

"Mom, you are biased. I asked you to take one piece but you refused. Now you secretly give two pieces to my second brother." Xu Meiling shouted angrily.

Lin Xiaomeng was afraid that innocent people would be implicated, so she quickly put down her hoe and went back to her room to hide.

"You're so fat now, why are you still eating snacks!" Xu Huaiyu attacked his sister without any hesitation.

Xu Meiling's biggest pain point is her weight of 120 kg. Her third brother hit the sore spot and she was so angry that she gritted her teeth. The two siblings chased and beat each other in the yard.

Liu Guifang simply stuffed all the snacks into her eldest grandson's hands and turned to cook.

There was a fierce quarrel in the Xu family's yard.

Dacheng quickly slipped back into the house with the snacks in his hands: "Mom, have some snacks."

Lin Xiaomeng took a bite from her son's hand. Pastries these days don't taste very good.

She has been reborn for two days. When she first came back, everything felt unreal, but now she has finally adapted.

In her previous life, she abandoned her husband and children and ended up dying on the street. However, her ex-husband Xu Huaizhi became an entrepreneur and amassed enormous wealth.

She never expected that the good home she had been struggling to find all her life actually already existed, but she gave it up herself.

If she were to live her life over again, she would never do such a stupid thing again. In this life, she would take good care of her husband and children, be a good wife and a good mother, and wait patiently for her husband's family to prosper.

However, what happened today made her a little confused. Didn’t the wife she bought for her second son in her previous life die on the road?

How come I am not only alive in this life, but also have the courage to ask my mother-in-law for food?

Could it be that she was also reborn?

-

The next morning.

Gu Qinghuan was awakened by the alarm clock at six o'clock.

I opened my eyes and looked at the ceiling of the villa, feeling as if I were in a dream.

After struggling for a long time, I finally accepted the reality that I had come to the 1970s and now had a family of elderly, weak and sick people to take care of.

Commonly known as: the main pillar.

Gu Qinghuan got up resignedly, washed up, put on his tacky and ugly "work clothes", and left the space.

There is still a lot of work to do today, so we must cheer up.

We brought back a lot of food yesterday. Now we need to solve the problem of eating, so we have to clean up the kitchen.

She cooked and took out meals from the space these past two days. This definitely can't be done every day.

She thought she had gotten up early enough, but she didn't expect Dabao to get up even earlier than her. He was sitting at the door of the main room, sorting something in his hands.

"Dabao, why are you getting up so early? Children need more sleep to grow taller."

Gu Qinghuan walked over while speaking.

Dabao was stunned for a second. Can you grow taller by sleeping more?

No wonder, he felt that he had not grown for a long time. Erdan and other boys in the village who were the same age as him were already half a head taller than him.

No, I have to sleep more in the future and try to grow as tall as my dad as soon as possible, so that I can earn a lot of work points and food for the family.

Gu Qinghuan didn't know that her casual words had caused Dabao to have so many fantasies.

At this moment, she was looking at the pile of wild vegetables in front of Dabao with curiosity.

"Did you pick these yesterday?"

"Well, these wild vegetables can be made into vegetable dumplings. It saves food and can also fill you up." However, he doesn't know how to make it, so he always cooks it directly. He doesn't know if his stepmother can make vegetable dumplings.

Of course, Gu Qinghuan had never eaten the most primitive kind of vegetable dumplings, but she had eaten them in the Youth League Home.

Well, we all eat it to survive. Otherwise, only those who have eaten it know how it tastes.

But the children still need to be praised.

"Dabao is amazing. He can recognize so many wild vegetables. Let's eat them for lunch."

It was the first time that Dabao received positive praise. To him, this was something that couldn’t be more ordinary, but being taken seriously by others made him feel like he was on a roller coaster.

I lowered my head shyly, feeling sweet in my heart.

"I will look for more wild vegetables and mountain products in the future."

Gu Qinghuan flipped through the wild vegetables, which included dandelions, cat's claws, bracken, prickly ash, mountain celery, shepherd's purse, and broccoli.

These are all common wild vegetables in the northern mountains and are quite fresh.

Even this portion is too much, estimated to be several kilograms or so. It's okay to eat it as a fresh treat, but she can't stand eating it every meal, especially the vegetable dumplings, which she can't eat at all.

But looking at the child's eager eyes, Gu Qinghuan couldn't say no, but these wild vegetables really couldn't be eaten every meal.

After a brainstorming session, an idea suddenly came to me.

She can't eat it, but some people like to eat it.

In later generations, people who were tired of eating a lot of meat and fish and who were concerned about their health would pay a high price to ask mountain people to pick wild vegetables for them to eat. But the vegetables in front of her were purely wild and pollution-free.

Never mind, just hang it on the vending machine and try, maybe you can sell it?

Gu Qinghuan did what he said and took the pile of wild vegetables away.

"Leave these to me, you go take care of your sister and dad."
