As a psychological counselor for seventeen years, I have seen too many children labeled as "Internet addicted" and "rebellious". They are blamed and corrected, but few people truly see the loneliness and fear behind their actions. The healing stories on the market always feature the protagonist being saved, but real growth always involves self-awakening and self-salvation.
An unpublished manuscript transformed my understanding of healing. The book records multiple real cases of adolescent psychology: a teenager who was immersed in games for 72 hours continuously and woke up in pain during the sinking; a child who became violently uncomfortable when taking an exam due to family trauma; a family who repeated painful patterns under the influence of generations.
The counselor Yiren in the story uses a method that is not conventionally understood to see the hidden self in each child. Internet addiction is not a stubborn disease, but a cry to find a sense of belonging; rebellion is not a fault, but a self-struggle that does not want to be obliterated.
This book is based on real psychology and explores the psychological logic behind family relationships, adolescent self-identity and addiction, emphasizing understanding and seeing rather than control and correction. There are no problem children, only unread souls. Real healing is to awaken the inner strength; the real bond is greater than technology, greater than loneliness, and greater than all suffering.
Purpose: To explore the real needs behind teenagers' Internet addiction and psychological difficulties, to oppose simple and crude "correction" and "rescue", and to advocate seeing, understanding and companionship. True psychological healing is not about repairing problems, but about awakening oneself; it is not about being redeemed by others, but about learning to be one's own light. Emphasizing the bond and empathy between people, we believe that every child has the power of self-growth and self-salvation.
