Outside the ward.
Zhao Fuling's father, Zhao Zhiquan, looked at Chang Yuan and said, "Doctor Chang, what's wrong with my daughter?"
Lu Yao also looked at Chang Yuan. She felt that Zhao Fuling's state seemed not right.
A woman cannot live without her child after giving birth, wishing that the child would always be by her side, but Zhao Fuling was very repulsive to the child.
She even saw the hatred for the child in Zhao Fuling's eyes.
Dr. Chang: "It's not convenient for you to tell me the reason why the patient committed suicide. Don't worry, we are a regular hospital and will not spread the patient's condition to the outside world."
Zhao Zhiquan sighed and said, "It's not inconvenient. My son-in-law is a doctor. He was sent abroad to study three years ago. He only comes back for half a month every year. After my daughter became pregnant, he never came back. In the past few months, "My daughter was suddenly in a bad mood. We saw that she looked bad, so we took her home to raise the baby. We asked her several times, but she was unwilling to tell us. Also yesterday, we received a letter."
Lu Yao thought that this letter should be the key.
Zhao Zhiquan said with a dark face, "The letter was written in English. We didn't recognize it, but my daughter did. She didn't tell us, so we asked someone to translate it in a hurry. Only then did my daughter tell us the truth, saying that the letter was written by my son-in-law's best friend. Yes, the two got married abroad and had a child!"
"My daughter didn't say anything at the time. I thought she believed my son-in-law. Who knew something would happen today!"
Zhao Zhiquan: "How long has Zhao Fuling been in this state?"
"It's been three or four months. We took her home after we found out. We rarely saw her smile at home, and she rarely spoke after that. We thought she was afraid of giving birth. Now think about it, she I must have known it for a long time.”
Chang Yuan: "Zhao Fuling should have a mental illness, and he needs heart medicine."
Zhao Fuling’s mother, Yan Hongmei, asked, “What is mental illness?”
Chang Yuan explained, "It means psychological illness. In layman's terms, if the patient is in a bad mood, and if the mood is bad to a certain extent and exceeds the limit of psychological endurance, he will have thoughts of suicide. Medically speaking, it is called depression."
Zhao Zhiquan's throat tightened, "Is it serious?"
Chang Yuan shook his head, "I don't know. Our country doesn't do deep research on this disease. Many people don't even think it's a disease, and they don't realize its seriousness. They even blame the patient and don't understand the patient. In the end, The result is that patients are getting sicker and sicker."
Yan Hongmei took a deep breath, "Then my daughter might commit suicide at any time in the future?"
Chang Yuan: "There is a possibility."
Lu Yao said on the side, "Has her lover been contacted?"
Zhao Zhiquan is deeply resentful, "His family is contacting him and they say they haven't been contacted, but I don't know if they really haven't been contacted."
Lu Yao: "Can you get in touch?"
Zhao Zhiquan: "We don't have his contact information, and we don't want to talk to him now."
Lu Yao blinked, "I think you can sit down and chat with your in-laws to understand the specific situation. According to what you said, Zhao Fuling discovered something was wrong a few months ago, and obviously didn't get the answer she wanted. Or is it that she kept the matter in her heart and just made blind guesses without asking her husband personally? I think you all need to understand it. Only by understanding it clearly can you understand Zhao Fuling's psychological appeal."
Zhao Zhiquan looked at Lu Yao and said, "You're right, we really haven't understood it."
"I think you can ask. Now is not the time to have conflicts, nor is it the time to keep your temper," Lu Yao continued, "It can be seen that you all love your children, and you can definitely put aside your grudges and take the initiative for the sake of your children. Find the reason.”
Zhao Zhiquan and Yan Hongmei looked at each other.
Next to him, Zhao Fuling's brother Zhao Fuzhong said, "Father, mother, I think the nurse comrade is right. The Bai family has been coming all the time, and it won't look good if we stop them from telling them to leave."
Yan Hongmei gritted her teeth: "Then I'll ask them!"
Chang Yuan warned her again, "If it's a misunderstanding, you can tell her, but if it's true, try to hide it first, enlighten her first, and be sure not to irritate her again."
"Thank you doctor for reminding me."
Chang Yuan took Lu Yao and Li Jinshan back.
Lu Yao held her face in her hands and looked at Chang Yuan curiously, "Dr. Chang, is depression common among pregnant women?"
"Of course it's not common. I have been practicing medicine for decades, and she is the second one."
Lu Yao bit her lip, "The chance is indeed quite small."
"So what's going on with the first one now?"
Chang Yuan shook his head, "She came to my place a few times, but she hasn't been here since, but I know she has a mental problem. Her husband's family and her mother's family all said I was making a fuss, thinking that pregnancy is something that all women will experience. Yes, it’s no big deal, the implication is that she is being pretentious.”
Lu Yao was speechless: "Don't they believe it even if you say it?"
Chang Yuan smiled and shook his head.
"What are the symptoms of maternal depression?"
Chang Yuan: "They don't want to see anyone, especially their children. In their world, children may be their enemies and a shame in their lives. Some even want to die with their children."
Lu Yao frowned.
"Then what can we do in this situation?"
Chang Yuan played with the pen, "There is very little we can do. The main thing is the understanding of the family members. The family members can help untie the knot. Once the patient wants to let it go, it will be fine."
Lu Yao: "It would be great if there were experts in this field who specialize in solving psychological problems for people. This situation is more serious than physical illness. If someone can't help it, the patient will commit suicide. When he meets family members who don't understand, they will also..." They would say she has poor mental endurance."
Chang Yuan smiled and said, "Your idea is good, maybe it will be realized one day."
Lu Yao: "Dr. Chang, do you have any books or cases in this field?"
Chang Yuan stood up, came to the bookshelf, and pulled out a book.
"This ancient book has records, please take it and read it."
Lu Yao took it like a treasure, "Thank you, Doctor Chang."
There were no patients in the afternoon, so Lu Yao opened it and took a look.
As expected, it is an ancient book, the font is traditional Chinese, and it is written in classical Chinese, so it is a bit difficult to read.
Fortunately, Lu Yao has good grades in Chinese and can understand almost everything.
At around four o'clock, Lu Yao went out to use the toilet. When she came back, she passed by Zhao Fuling's ward and subconsciously glanced inside.
Zhao Fuling stared blankly at the ceiling, with no one around him.
Lu Yao thought for a while and walked in.
