Anxiety disorder is a common psychological problem in college students. Its serious consequences include academic impairment, social disturbance, health problems, life quality decline and employment difficulties.
150 college students diagnosed with anxiety disorder were selected to participate in the study and assessed by the Stanford Acute Stress Response Questionnaire and the 3-minute Disorder Assessment Scale. SPSS 23.0 was used for data analysis.
The results showed that the students who received ideological and political teaching based on Morita therapy made significant progress in the reduction of anxiety symptoms. Before treatment, participants’ anxiety scores averaged 6.4 (s=1.3), which dropped to 3.2 (s=1.1) after treatment. At the same time, scores of anxiety levels were also significantly reduced, with an average score of 25.1 (s=3.9) before treatment and 13.8 (s=2.7) after treatment. In addition to the improvement in anxiety symptoms, the mental health of the participants was significantly improved. Before treatment, participants reported an average mental health score of 58.2 (s=6.5), which improved to 80.6 (s=5.3) after treatment. This shows that it has a significant effect on improving the mental health of college students.
The study shows that ideological and political teaching based on Morita therapy plays an important role in relieving anxiety disorder in college students. By providing a balanced teaching environment and teaching Vipassana and self-awareness skills, this therapy helps college students effectively cope with anxiety and promote their mental health and overall development.
