THE CONSEQUENCES OF PSYCHOTRAUMATIC EVENTS IN MODERN WARTIME CONDITIONS FROM THE POSITION OF ADAPTIVE HABILITATION
SUMMARY:
The article is devoted to highlighting the consequences of psychotraumatic events and defining the structure of neurotic disorders that come to the fore in the events of wartime. The negative impact of modern stressful events can subsequently initiate post-traumatic stress disorders in the early and long-term period, which have an obsessive nature and worsen a person’s life and health. During the observation of military personnel undergoing rehabilitation after treatment in a multidisciplinary hospital, the structure of psychoneurological disorders was determined. The clinical-catamnestic method of examination and psychological diagnostic methods were used. It was clearly determined that according to the results of the first stage of the study, among the examined contingent (124 people), neurotic manifestations that went beyond the scope of physiological adequate adaptation reactions dominated. The presence of certain neurotic manifestations in the form of increased irritability was determined; intemperance; emotional tension; quick fatigue; night dreams that are saturated with military themes and combat experience, as well as vegetative dysfunctions. It was determined that at the second stage of the study, in the remote period, the leading manifestation of the disorders was a depressive syndrome with asthenic inclusions, which arose under the condition of long-term significant psychotraumatic situations. Among these individuals, a pronounced social maladjustment was manifested in combination with a desire for isolation from society. The stages of development of post-traumatic changes of a neurotic nature are: 1) acute reaction to stress; 2) neurotic reactions; 3) neurotic conditions; 4) neurotic personality development. It was emphasized that the consequences of psychotraumatic events in modern wartime conditions are very threatening. This actualizes the use of various rehabilitation methods aimed at restoring the health of persons with psychoneurological disorders for the opportunity of society to include each of those who have experienced post-traumatic changes in the life and work process. At the same time, habilitation is an auxiliary set of activities carried out with the help of information technologies and aimed at forming and improving the physical, mental, and social skills of an individual. How to eliminate or reduce the health risk due to one’s own behavior, how carefully and responsibly a person will treat his own body, largely depends on social learning.
