How does post-traumatic stress develop? How does it affect health? And how can we, who work with the target group, treat these people correctly? Psychologist Frida Johansson Metso works for the Red Cross Centre of Excellence for Torture and War Injury Rehabilitation. The centre focuses on research on the patient group. This week, Conecto gave an interesting lecture on the subject.<\/strong><\/h5>

The definition of a potentially traumatising event is that we cannot imagine it before it happens. No-one can imagine how powerless and terrified you might feel.<\/p>

\"Getting a little adrenaline rush makes us stressed, which helps us stay sharp. But if someone points a gun at our head, the adrenaline rush can be incredibly high. The brain basically screams. It can be a traumatising event,\" says Frida.<\/strong><\/h5>
Not small or manageable events<\/u><\/strong><\/h5>

\u00a0<\/strong>The framework of Frida's lecture was competence development on a theoretical level. Among other things, she went through the diagnosis of post-traumatic stress and linked it to the work we do in Lumena.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/strong>\"I base my work largely on patient groups with a migration background, because it is ten times more common in the group that has fled from torture and war to Sweden.\"<\/strong><\/p>

Frida believes that most of us have or will experience a traumatising event at some point in our lives.<\/p>

\"It could be a car accident, a robbery, becoming homeless or losing your job. Or like many of the patients Frida meets who have had to leave their homes and become refugees.\"<\/strong><\/p>

Stress sensitivity remains<\/u><\/strong><\/p>

\"Most of us have a resilience for a single event. How we cope with it will affect how we fare for the rest of our lives. If I can handle the event well, I will come out of it stronger. In the past, it was thought that anyone who experiences an event develops PTSD.\"<\/strong><\/p>

\u00a0<\/strong>Today, it is seen as a link between an event and a disease reaction. Healthcare still often focuses on the triggering event.<\/p>

\"If we can treat the whole sequence of events rather than just the individual event, we can address stress sensitivity. Then you can treat the patient. \"<\/strong><\/p>

The diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder has clear symptoms such as intrusive memories, so-called flashbacks, increased tension, avoidance and negative thoughts and feelings.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
