"Let's go!"

Four-year-old Zhang Heng's arm trembled slightly, and the crayon suddenly fell to the ground and completely fell into two. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

At this moment, Zhang Heng's mother suddenly walked in, she saw Zhang Heng staring blankly at the wall, and after there was an extra pattern on the wall again, she screamed, hugged Zhang Heng, and cried directly!

"Mom, why are you crying?" A blank flash flashed in Zhang Heng's eyes, and he gently stroked his mother's cheek, "Did I make my mother angry again?" ā€

"No, Mom isn't angry!" The mother hurriedly shook her head, but kept crying, until Zhang Heng's father, who heard the voice, also rushed in, and when he saw the crayon in front of Zhang Heng and the half-drawn Stellar Technology logo, the man also cried silently, and the whole room fell into an indescribable silence.

……

"It's a very typical underlying depression." In the psychological clinic, a woman with gold-rimmed glasses and professional clothes sat on the sofa, looking at a large stack of graffiti that Zhang Heng had drawn on the wall with crayons provided by Zhang Heng's parents, her eyes flashing with a touch of arrogance and confidence.

"Depression? Dr. Bai, are you sure? Opposite the woman in professional attire, there is a long sofa, on the sofa is sitting Zhang Heng's parents, and in the middle is the young Zhang Heng, at this time hearing the name depression, Zhang Heng's parents' faces couldn't help but change.

"Yes, I'm pretty much sure that your son is sick of that condition." The woman known as Doctor Bai nodded and said solemnly, "But don't worry too much, the so-called latent depression does not necessarily turn into depression. It generally has symptoms such as autism, complex thinking disorder, multiple personality, etc., but the specific symptoms depend on the environmental factors of the patient's growth, and the patient is not good at communicating with others in early childhood, and is addicted to his own world and cannot extricate himself...... Obviously, your son's actions over the past two years are a syndrome of what is known as autism and complex thinking disorder. ā€

"And what do you say about the words and patterns on the wall?" Zhang Heng's father couldn't help but ask.

"Television, picture books, and kindergarten teachers." Dr. Bai immediately replied, "Or, it's all your son's imagination." ā€

As she spoke, the woman known as Doctor Bai put a stack of printed materials in front of the two of them, "I looked up keywords such as 'curse', 'meme', 'stellar technology' and so on on the Internet, and the first word could not find any trace on the Internet, and the second word came from an evolutionary book called "The Selfish Gene", written by the famous evolutionary theorist Richard Dawkins, which was published in 1976. As for the third keyword, there are too many on the web...... For example, Qingdao Stellar Science and Technology College, Henan Stellar Science and Technology Co., Ltd., Changsha Stellar Science and Technology Development Co., Ltd., etc., are all Stellar Technology, and more details cannot be verified at all. ā€

As he spoke, Dr. Bai raised his glasses and continued to analyze, "These keywords are actually not important, they just show that your son, like other patients with underlying depression, generally did not like to play with his peers in early childhood, and was more willing to paint on the wall, or spend a day fiddling with a few simple building blocks, and in their hearts they think that only they are real, and everything else is a false picture, including relatives and animals, for them, everything is false." ā€

"However, we don't think my son thinks we're fake." Zhang Heng's mother touched Zhang Heng's head with some heartache, and subconsciously retorted.

"I can understand your feelings." The woman known as Doctor Bai smiled and said unmindfully, "My son is defined by strangers as depressed, which is unacceptable to many parents, so he will subconsciously produce protective behaviors. But for the sake of the children, I hope you can continue to listen, in short, your son behaves like other children, but the self-isolation is very serious, and it is difficult for you to notice. ā€

Saying that, the three of them looked at Zhang Heng in unison, and at this time Zhang Heng was also silently listening to the words of the doctor in front of him, but what was strange was that he knew that the other party was talking about himself, but the child in front of him, who was only four years old, looked extremely calm, as if he and the people around him were air...... Or is a four-year-old too young to realize what he is talking about?

For a moment, Doctor Bai couldn't help frowning.

"Doctor Bai, how can my child be cured?" Zhang Heng's mother looked at Zhang Heng without the slightest reaction, and then she was sure of Dr. Bai's words, and asked again with some distress.

"It's not completely unrecoverable, but it has to be treated with medication and psychotherapy." Dr. Bai had to continue, "And I don't think you need to worry, because this disease has a very apt name - genius disease. ā€

Speaking of this, Dr. Bai sighed, "Let me make an analogy, when an ordinary person observes an ant, what the brain receives is the color of the ant, how many feet it has, and its appearance. What potential depressed patients see is the ant's internal structure, range of motion, neural network, and so on. It will also analyze what ants may eat, how they eat, how the food moves from the mouth to the inside, etc., through imagination and guessing, which is the fundamental difference between ordinary people and people with underlying depression. ā€

"Most patients are much stronger than ordinary people in terms of calculation, creativity, and logical thinking skills, and have the ability to watch suspense movies and know the end at the beginning, as well as the ability to thoroughly analyze the other person's precise character, life, and habits from a person's appearance, language, and actions." Seeing the shocked reaction of Zhang Heng's parents, Dr. Bai finally added, "It is said that Einstein, Newton, Leonardo da Vinci and others are patients with this disease. ā€

Zhang Heng's parents were stunned for a moment, and the two looked at each other, so they asked tentatively, "In other words, my son is actually a genius?" ā€

"It's up to him to adapt to his disease." Doctor Bai nodded, "It's okay when you are a child, when your son grows up, this mental illness will produce two kinds of people, one is to accept and work hard to exert this ability, these people are either very strong-willed or have a high IQ, and they will make outstanding achievements in certain fields. The rest of the people who are not strong-willed and have a low IQ will either commit suicide or go to a psychiatric hospital. ā€

"My son is very smart!" Zhang Heng's mother hurriedly said.

"I believe it." Doctor Bai nodded politely, she looked at her watch, suddenly looked at Zhang Heng, and showed a friendly smile, "Two parents, please avoid it now, I need to talk to your children personally." ā€

Zhang Heng's parents hesitated, finally nodded, got up and walked towards the door, before leaving, Zhang Heng's mother touched Zhang Heng's head lovingly.
