among 35 patients in the treatment group,7 patients were cured,15 patients were significantly effective,10 patients were effective and 3 patients were ineffective,and the total effective rate was 91.43%.Evaluation of treatment effect of the control group of 35 cases to recover a total of four people,a total of 9 people were markedly improved,a total of 12 people effectively,invalid 10 people,the final total effective rate of71.43%.By comparison,the treatment group’s effectiveness is significantly higher than the control group,and there still exists certain statistical significance

chi-square test,two groups have statistical significance(P <0.05),compared with the control group,treatment group recurrence rate is lower and show that long curative effect in treatment group is better.(7)Comparison of mental score: two groups of patients mental score showed that in the relief of tension,depression,anxiety,compulsion,depression and other adverse psychological states,the two
