Keywords: neurosis, psychotherapy, stress, depression, psychological trauma, anxiety, emotional tension.

Introduction

Nowadays, people are experiencing an increase in mental disorders, stress, depression, and psychotrauma. Such changes lead to a mental state called neurosis in psychotherapy. The term neurosis was introduced into science in 1769 by the Scottish physician William Cullen. Historically, it has been studied as a result of mental trauma, internal conflicts, and psychogenic factors, and was developed by Sigmund Freud and other psychoanalysts in the 19th and 20th centuries. Initially, neuroses were considered physical nervous diseases, but later more attention was paid to mental and emotional disorders. Currently, neurosis is associated with psychological trauma.

Causes leading to neurosis: constant stress, depression, chronic fatigue, poor daily routine, personal psychological factors. In a neurosis, a person’s emotional state, behavior, and quality of life are significantly reduced. Constant irritability, strong anxiety, panic, fear, sleep disturbances, various body pains, loss of interest in life, sticky fantasies in the brain, inability to concentrate, memory problems.

Review of the used literature..

In the present study, an analysis was carried out based on the scientific works of leading scientists in the field of psychotherapy and neuropsychology and the results of modern research to clarify the concept of neurosis and its causes. During the literature review, the theoretical foundations of the problem of neurosis and its causes were examined based on various approaches. In particular: Bessel and der Kolk’s trauma theory explains that childhood traumas later lead to neurotic states, and the importance of processing trauma through psychotherapy. The interdependence of the body and the psyche is interpreted as the main source. Joseph Le Doux connects neurosis with brain activity. This approach explains that a person develops a constant state of anxiety as a result of changing brain reactions to severe stress. Also, the works of scientists such as Albert Ellis and Aaron Beck are of great importance in the causes of neurosis and its reduction and elimination. Their research shows that neurosis is not only associated with brain activity, but also with cognitive, biological and traumatic factors. The literature written by local scientists covers the origin, causes and treatment of neurosis in detail. Neuropsychologist Zarifboy Ibodullayev. has scientifically proven that the origin of neurosis is based on social factors and psychotrauma. In general, a review of the literature used shows that neurosis was studied in different periods, based on different approaches, and its origin was based on a combination of biological, social and psychological factors.

Research Methodology

This study uses the questionnaire method to study the psychological characteristics of neurosis. 30 students aged 18-25 participated in the study. A questionnaire consisting of 15 questions was developed for the study. The research process was carried out in 2 stages. In the 1st stage, a questionnaire was tested. In the 2nd stage, the results were analyzed. They answered Yes or No on a 1-5-point scale

1 I often get nervous

2 I feel anxious for no reason

3 I often have trouble sleeping

4 I get tired easily

5 I have difficulty concentrating

6 I take small problems seriously

7 I get moody easily

8 I am under a lot of stress from studying or work

9 I think a lot and get “stuck” on one idea.

10 I worry too much about the future

11 My self-confidence sometimes decreases

12 I feel tired even when I rest.

13 I sometimes can’t get out of depression

14 I often have headaches or muscle tension

15 I feel a rapid heartbeat or internal discomfort.

Methodological analysis

This study helped to identify neurotic symptoms of anxiety and stress in students. The study involved 30 students aged 18-25. The research process was carried out in 2 stages.

At stage 1, a questionnaire was tested

At stage 2, the results were analyzed.

According to the analysis of the results of the questionnaire test, it was determined that neurotic states are manifested in students to varying degrees

15-30 – points – low-level neurotic state

31-55 – points – moderate neurotic state

56-75 – points – high-level neurotic state

Some of the respondents who participated in the study were observed to have frequent symptoms of anxiety and emotional tension. High-level neurotic symptoms were detected in 20% of students. 50% of students had moderate anxiety and stress, and 30% had low-level neurotic indicators. The analysis revealed that the occurrence of neurosis is most influenced by high academic workload, sleep disturbance, emotional stress, and anxiety.

Research conclusions: According to the results of the study conducted on students: neurotic symptoms were observed to be less frequent in students who regularly rested and engaged in physical activity. In order to prevent neurosis, students were recommended to conduct psychological training, organize a proper rest regimen, and develop emotional stability.

Women

I was wondering if I am free?

Do u feel free?

Nooo

Every day I walk in a street of possibilities and opportunities..

But nobody look at me

As i am a woman..

It is unspeakable how much a woman is used..

From day one

A woman needed to educate the child

To cook for a child

To learn him how to think.. Speak..

Act.. 

A lot for a woman to do

But what happens after..

A woman need

A woman wish

A woman word

Inexistant person

Until one day

You will look at the mirror

You see your face

You will see your heart

You will see your body

And u will not recognize it

Because u will be so used

Used from the rejection

Used from the loneliness

Used from the fake people

Used from the bad decisions

Without faith!!!

If Not Love 

The couple sat upon a green-painted bench in the park. In the distance, a dog barked and children squealed with glee. Motes of dust danced in the sunlight which bled through the clouds. 

“Libby,” he asked, “do you even want my love?” 

“It’s not a matter of what I want,” she said. “You either love me or you don’t.” He maintained his silence. “So you…don’t love me now? We’ve been lovers for more than a year now,” she pointed out. 

“It’s not as simple as that,” Matt said. “I do love you already, Libby, but I’m on the edge of falling in love with you. But, if I see there’s no hope, no room for me in your life, and no real future for us, then I’ll hold back.” 

“So,” she mused thoughtfully, “it’s up to me whether you fall in love or not?” 

“Libby, I want to, but…” 

“But?” she prompted. 

“I don’t want to set myself up to fail. I’ve been married twice before,” he reminded her. 

“What assurances do you need, or expect, from me?” she asked. “If you’re asking me, do I have a permanent place for you in my life, I do. But, Matt, we might fail no matter what; there are no guarantees. It’s all a chance, a mystery….that they call love.” 

“I’ll take the chance,” he said meaningfully, closing the distance between them and running his fingers deeply through the auburn tresses spilling down Libby’s shoulders and back. She moaned softly and fell into a warm embrace with Matt.

After they loosened their embrace, Libby asked “As a practical matter, would this require me to give up sex with my husband?”

“No,” Matt assured her, I don’t think that would be fair to you. I know I’m not great in bed,” he acknowledged, “and according to your all-too-vivid descriptions, I could never match what he does for and to you. Was he ever some kind of acrobat or contortionist?” he asked.

“He spent a couple of years with a circus, in fact,” she admitted.

“Does he know about me, Libby?”

She frowned. “Of course! What kind of woman do you think I am?” she asked. “I wouldn’t cheat on Jack without telling him. He’s cool as long as I don’t talk about leaving him. He has a couple of side pieces on a string too. He says, if I have time on my hands, it’s OK if you fill out my dance card.” She hesitated a beat. “As long as you’ve had all your shots.”

They both laughed.

Matt nodded. “Speaking of which, I do love going dancing with you. Just thinking about holding you close…”

“Then let’s have some more of that,” murmured Libby. “No need to talk. My husband is great at the big event, so to speak, but not much for petting and intimacy. Do you mind putting one hand here and rubbing a little? Use the fingers on your right hand. That’s right. Mmmmm.”

“If you like that, Libby, you could return the favor, by…ooh, good, I don’t need to explain, do I?”

Several minutes later they pulled apart. Libby said, “You know, what we’ve got now seems like the best of both worlds. I get two guys to satisfy me in two different ways, and you can’t afford another wife after two divorces.”

At Matt’s wistful look, Libby asked, “What is it?”

“I envy Matt getting to spend every night with you,” he said. “Lying in your arms is what I live for.”

“Then I’ve got some good news,” she said brightly. “Jack works the midnight shift every third week, so you can come over at, say, 10:30 on nights when he works. Work for you?” Libby asked.

“It does,” agreed Matt. “Baby, things couldn’t get any better!”

“Then how about this,” said Libby. “You could move in.”

“With you two?” asked Matt. “How would that work?”

“Well, you could move into the vacant apartment over the garage. Jack has been wanting to rent it out to get us some extra money.”

“When can I move in?” asked Matt eagerly. “But, wait,” he said. “Don’t you need to talk it over with Jack first?”

“No need,” replied Libby. “Maddie, one of Jack’s girlfriends, is already set to move in. Now you two could share the expenses, and the bed, when we’re not…you know. That way, you won’t get lonely when Jack is at home.”

“What’s this Maddie like?” asked Matt.

Libby shrugged. “I dunno. Tall, skinny, blonde, some kind of athlete at college, a distance runner or something? I’ve just seen her twice. What do you think, Matt?”

He only smiled.

Keywords: Autism Spectrum Disorder, preschool education, early intervention, ABA therapy, inclusive education, individualized approach, play therapy.

INTRODUCTION

In recent years, the number of children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has been steadily increasing worldwide. According to the World Health Organization, at least one in every 100 children is affected by autism. This growing prevalence highlights the urgent need to improve specialized pedagogical approaches, particularly in preschool education.

Preschool age is a critical period in a child’s psychological, speech, emotional, and social development. Early pedagogical and psychological intervention during this stage plays a decisive role in determining the effectiveness of future education.

In Uzbekistan, supporting children with special educational needs has become a priority of state policy. Reforms initiated by Shavkat Mirziyoyev focus on social protection and the development of inclusive education, ensuring equal opportunities for all children. Every child has the right to quality education and full participation in society, which requires scientifically grounded methodologies for working with children with ASD in preschool institutions.

Children with ASD often exhibit limited social interaction, repetitive behaviors, and delayed speech development. Therefore, it is essential to apply a комплекс of methods, including Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), visual supports, structured teaching, play therapy, and sensory integration.

The relevance of this study lies in developing and implementing effective methodological approaches that enhance social adaptation, independence, and future educational success of preschool children with ASD. The study follows the IMRAD structure: Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion.

METHODS

This study focuses on improving methodologies for working with preschool children with ASD. Both theoretical and practical research methods were applied.

The theoretical stage involved analyzing scientific literature in special pedagogy, defectology, and inclusive education.

The practical stage included:

Observation

Interviews

Diagnostic assessment

Experimental pedagogical work

The study involved children aged 5–7 diagnosed with ASD. Individual development programs were designed for each participant.

The following methods were applied:

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) techniques

Visual supports and pictograms

Structured teaching

Play therapy

Speech development exercises

Sensory integration activities

Sessions were conducted 3–4 times per week in both individual and small group formats. Additionally, regular consultations were held with parents, providing guidance for home-based activities.

RESULTS

The experimental work showed that systematic and individualized intervention had a positive impact on children’s development.

The following improvements were observed:

Speech development: Increased vocabulary and ability to form simple sentences

Social interaction: More frequent engagement with peers

Behavioral changes: Reduction in repetitive behaviors

Attention skills: Improved concentration and task completion

These results confirm that early intervention and parental involvement significantly enhance developmental outcomes for children with ASD.

DISCUSSION

The findings indicate that individualized approaches, visual supports, and structured teaching methods are key factors in successful intervention. Furthermore, an inclusive educational environment plays a crucial role in children’s social adaptation.

State policy also contributes significantly to this process. As emphasized by Shavkat Mirziyoyev, every child must have access to quality education and opportunities for full participation in society.

Effective collaboration between educators and parents is essential for achieving sustainable developmental progress.

CONCLUSION

The study demonstrates that early diagnosis, individualized approaches, and systematic pedagogical intervention are crucial when working with preschool children with ASD.

Methods such as ABA, visual supports, structured teaching, and play therapy have proven effective in developing communication, social, and behavioral skills.

The IMRAD-based research confirms that individualized programs significantly improve children’s social adaptation and reduce stereotypical behaviors. Additionally, parental involvement and inclusive education environments are critical components of success.

In conclusion, improving methodologies for working with children with ASD requires:

Enhancing teacher qualifications

Developing modern methodological resources

Expanding inclusive education practices

Beyond methodology, the most important factor remains the educator’s patience, empathy, and individualized approach to each child. With proper support and collaboration between families and educational institutions, children with ASD can successfully integrate into society.

Wan Yilong: Practicing Great Love with High-Dimensional Wisdom

Casting the Soul for the Inheritance of Dongba Culture

By Lan Xin (Lanxin Samei)

Mr. Wan Yilong is an outstanding master of traditional Chinese culture, a high-dimensional wisdom mentor, spiritual practitioner, poet, and philanthropist. He is also the founder of the Nine Dragons Realm, Dean of the High-Dimensional Wisdom Academy, Dean of the Dongba Culture Academy, and a rare Han Chinese inheritor of Dongba Culture.

Born in Anyang, Henan, the hometown of China’s oracle bone inscriptions, he has been deeply nourished by 5,000 years of Chinese civilization since childhood. Proficient in I Ching at a young age, he devoted himself to Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, integrating ancient Eastern philosophy with spiritual wisdom. He enlightens hearts with wisdom and expresses the soul with poetry, spreading Eastern high-dimensional wisdom and great love to the world.

He is a true man of action who “does more than he speaks.” In daily life, he lives simply and frugally, with no pursuit of luxury or fame. Yet in charity and cultural inheritance, he gives his all without reservation. He has quietly helped countless strangers, never seeking recognition or reward, embodying great love through deeds and fulfilling his mission with a devout heart.

My encounter with Mr. Wan Yilong was legendary and destined. In a spiritual workshop with many fellow practitioners, I stood quietly and independently in the crowd, with a unique and serene aura. Though surrounded by many admirers for his “Third Eye” that perceives the truth of life, he noticed me at first sight among all those people.

He walked toward me gently, with firm and sincere eyes, and whispered: “We have met before.”

At the moment our eyes met, a familiar feeling across time and space arose naturally. With his high-dimensional perception, he clearly saw my form in multi-dimensional space and revealed the deepest imprints and mission of my soul. I was deeply shocked and convinced that this meeting was divinely destined. Since then, we have become closest partners, awakening the wisdom of countless lifetimes together, and guarding the inheritance of Eastern civilization hand in hand.

Over the years, Mr. Wan and I have worked together to protect and inherit Dongba Culture, a precious World Memory Heritage. We co-founded the public-welfare Dongba Culture Academy. Introduced by me, he became one of the very few Han Chinese inheritors of Dongba Culture. Together with Elder Aheng Dongta, he has devoted himself to sustaining this thousand-year-old cultural lineage. With profound cultural knowledge and high-dimensional insight, he helped me awaken the hidden wisdom of sacred mantras, rituals, and life energy, allowing the ancient civilization to shine anew in the modern era.

Deeply moved by the crisis facing Dongba Culture — few inheritors, most of them elderly and struggling to make a living — he made the rescue and inheritance of Dongba Culture his lifelong mission. Together, we restored an ancient thousand-year-old temple into the now-renowned Yulong Wenbi Dongba Culture Academy, creating a sacred home for Dongba inheritors to practice, research, and pass on their heritage.

Mr. Wan upholds the philanthropic philosophy of “teaching people to fish rather than giving them fish.” He provides not only material support but also platforms for cultural exchange, ancient scripture research, traditional ceremonies, and public education in the most dignified way for Dongba masters. This enables them to gain stable livelihoods and social respect while preserving their culture. He has traveled many times to remote mountainous areas such as Shangri-La and Muli in Sichuan to visit, comfort, and support the elder Dongba masters guarding the cultural roots, warming hearts with sincere and practical love.

As an extraordinary high-dimensional wisdom mentor and spiritual practitioner, Mr. Wan integrates the essence of wisdom from Buddhism, Taoism, Christianity, and Dongba Culture. He perceives the karmic roots of life through the “Third Eye,” explores the mysteries of the multi-dimensional universe via astral travel, and chants cosmic sounds from high-dimensional realms with pure intention. This energetic frequency helps people break through physical limitations, connect with ancestral wisdom, awaken their soul guardians, resolve life confusion, and find their ultimate life purpose.

He never boasts of his extraordinary abilities or pursues personal gain, always guiding and healing all beings with compassion. For those trapped in confusion and suffering, he illuminates their path with high-dimensional wisdom and liberates them from karmic obstacles through spiritual practices. He heals both physical pain and spiritual wounds, helping countless people regain light and hope from hardship. For him, spirituality is not abstract theory, but a way of living integrated into every word, every deed, and every ordinary moment — seeing the sacred in the mundane, realizing the Tao in daily life.

At the Dongba Culture Academy, Mr. Wan is one of the core spiritual guiding forces. People from all over the world come seeking help with health, relationships, career, and spiritual struggles. With his ability to “see through karma,” he accurately identifies the root of their difficulties. Combining Eastern spiritual wisdom and ancient Dongba rituals, he has helped countless people experience life transformation: infertile couples welcoming children, critically ill patients recovering, lost souls finding direction, and suffering beings regaining peace. These real transformations are the best proof of his high-dimensional wisdom and boundless love.

Mr. Wan Yilong lights the path of cultural inheritance with high-dimensional wisdom, walks the way with selfless love, and guards the roots of civilization with poetic spirit and devotion.

He is a practitioner of Eastern high-dimensional wisdom, a distinguished Chinese poet on the international stage, a humble and profound philanthropist, a soul-builder for Dongba cultural inheritance, and a guide who transforms lives through life.

He shows the world the vision and dignity of a true Chinese spiritual practitioner. With perseverance, he revives the thousand-year-old culture; with compassion, he shines like starlight, illuminating countless lost souls.

He lives by this truth:

True high-dimensional wisdom begins with awakening and belongs to great love.

True spirituality and charity lie not in words, but in devoted action.

Father – Love Spoken in Silence

       My father never speaks much, yet his silence becomes the most reliable presence in our home. In the morning, he closes the door quietly as he leaves for work, and in the evening, he places his shoes neatly in their place. The order he maintains, even on the table, reflects his strong inner discipline. This silence does not feel cold; instead, it creates a sense of stability and reassurance. For my father, life is not expressed through loud words. He values action over speech and sees being a father not as a special status, but as a continuous responsibility. He never feels the need to highlight his efforts, because fulfilling his duties is simply a natural part of who he is.

      My father gives little advice, but every word he says is meaningful and timely. He allows me the freedom to choose while gently guiding my path, showing trust rather than control.

      As time passes, I understand more clearly that my father’s quiet nature comes not from indifference, but from inner calm. He chooses to bring peace into the family and carry worries on his own shoulders, protecting us from unnecessary anxiety. Sometimes I study his face and find support in his thoughtful seriousness and stability. He teaches not through long speeches, but through his actions. His life feels like a lesson written in silence yet filled with deep meaning and quiet strength.

      Today, I know that a father’s love is not always openly expressed. It often lives in quiet care, constant responsibility, and the unspoken words that shape a child’s life.

Introduction Language is more than a collection of words and grammar rules; it is the heartbeat of human connection. Through language, we share ideas, express emotions, and build bridges across cultures. In today’s globalized world, the ability to learn and teach languages has become one of the most powerful tools for fostering understanding and unity. This article explores the transformative role of language learning and teaching, highlighting how they shape individuals, societies, and the future of global communication.

The Role of Learning Languages Learning a new language is like opening a door to another world. It allows us to step into different cultures, traditions, and perspectives. For example, mastering English provides access to international education, business, and technology, while learning smaller, less widely spoken languages helps preserve cultural heritage and identity.

The benefits of language learning extend far beyond communication. Studies show that multilingual individuals often have stronger problem-solving skills, better memory, and greater adaptability. Language learning also nurtures empathy: when we learn another language, we begin to see the world through the eyes of its speakers. This ability to understand and respect diversity is essential in a world where collaboration across borders is increasingly necessary.

The Art of Teaching Languages Teaching languages is not simply about transferring knowledge of vocabulary and grammar. It is about inspiring curiosity and confidence in learners. A good language teacher acts as a cultural ambassador, introducing students to the traditions, values, and stories embedded in the language.

Modern teaching methods emphasize interaction and creativity. Instead of rote memorization, teachers now use storytelling, role-playing, and digital tools to make learning engaging. Technology has revolutionized language education: apps, online courses, and AI-powered platforms allow learners to practice with native speakers, receive instant feedback, and immerse themselves in authentic content.

Yet, the human element remains irreplaceable. A teacher’s encouragement can transform a hesitant learner into a confident speaker. By creating a supportive environment, teachers help students overcome the fear of mistakes and embrace the joy of communication.

Challenges in Language Learning and Teaching Despite its rewards, language learning is not without challenges. Many learners struggle with pronunciation, grammar complexity, or lack of practice opportunities. Cultural barriers can also make communication difficult, as words often carry meanings shaped by traditions and social norms.

Teachers face their own challenges: balancing diverse student needs, keeping lessons engaging, and adapting to rapidly changing technologies. In some regions, limited resources and lack of access to qualified instructors hinder effective language education.

However, these challenges also present opportunities. Online platforms connect learners with teachers worldwide, breaking geographical barriers. Language exchange programs allow students to practice with native speakers, while AI tools provide personalized learning experiences. The key is persistence and creativity — qualities that both learners and teachers must cultivate.

Language as a Bridge Between Cultures Perhaps the most profound impact of language learning and teaching is its ability to unite people. When we learn another language, we gain access to its literature, music, and traditions. We begin to appreciate the richness of human diversity and recognize our shared humanity.

Consider international diplomacy: leaders who speak multiple languages can build trust and negotiate more effectively. In business, multilingual employees create opportunities for global partnerships. In everyday life, speaking another language allows us to form friendships across borders, travel with confidence, and experience cultures authentically.

Language is also a tool for peace. Misunderstandings often arise from communication gaps, but when people share a common language, dialogue becomes possible. Teaching languages, therefore, is not just an educational act — it is a contribution to global harmony.

The Future of Language Learning and Teaching As technology advances, the future of language education looks promising. Artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and translation tools are reshaping how we learn and teach. Imagine practicing French in a virtual Paris café or using AI to receive instant corrections during a conversation. These innovations make language learning more accessible and immersive than ever before.

Yet, technology should complement, not replace, human interaction. The emotional connection between teacher and student, or between two people communicating in a new language, cannot be replicated by machines. The future lies in combining technological efficiency with human warmth, creating a balanced approach that maximizes learning outcomes.

Conclusion Language learning and teaching are acts of building bridges. They connect individuals to cultures, societies to opportunities, and humanity to a shared future. Every word learned is a step closer to understanding the world, and every lesson taught is a gift that empowers others to communicate, collaborate, and dream beyond borders.

In honoring the power of language, we honor the essence of human connection. Whether as learners or teachers, we participate in a timeless journey — one that transforms not only our minds but also the world around us.
