Mind distress refers to a state of imbalance,disorder,negativity,and powerlessness in an individual's mind.It is characterized by a lack of self-identity,unclear development goals,and an inability to find a solid foundation of meaning in life.When psychological distress transforms from individual struggles into a public issue in the field of education,it signifies that this problem not only affects the living conditions and spiritual world of students,but also hinders the realization of educational goals.Psychological distress as an educational issue manifests in negative behavioral stagnation,disruptions,conflicts,and failures in social roles,and even in the occurrence of educa-tional norm violations.At the psychological level,it is manifested in the individual's inability to form a rational self-cognition,insufficient intrinsic motivation for development,and nihilism in val-ues and utilitarianism in ideal pursuit.The resolution of psychological distress in education requires students to clarify their development goals through role understanding and role practice,to stimulate their potential through intrinsic motivation,and to guide their spiritual growth with correct values.
