Dear clients and readers, this earthquake we have experienced has affected everyone, from the health personnel who experienced the earthquake, to the rescue teams, to almost the entire public watching the situation on television and social media.
Sadness, anger, helplessness, guilt. Many symptoms such as emotional states such as alienation, feeling of being in a dream, shaking, feeling that an earthquake is happening, being overly alert, insomnia, nightmares, avoidance behaviors are commonly experienced. Before making any diagnosis and thinking that it is still early to make a diagnosis, I have listed some suggestions that I think may help you. sleeplessness, fear, etc.) are gradually decreasing, accept it as normal.
*Although the desire to be alone, unresponsiveness and similar feelings are normal in the first weeks, do not surrender completely. Be sure to take action, even if you feel bad, try to help people without trying too hard, if you can't do anything, try short walks.
*Sharing your feelings with friends, family and neighbors, getting support, giving support has a healing effect. Deal with each other in a mutual and balanced way.
*The occasional feeling of alienation or being in a dream is common after traumas and is a kind of defense. Do not be afraid, it will disappear in time.
*From your feelings; Do not be ashamed of your helplessness and weakness. Don't try to be too strong. As you accept your situation, your fear and dizziness decrease, your motivation towards life increases, and you begin to feel more controlled.
*Anxiety, palpitations, dizziness, fear of going crazy or dying, etc. Be sure to try breathing and relaxation exercises, mindfulness, worship, meditation, and similar practices to eliminate it. p>*Create “happy scenes in your mind about 1 year from now” as many times a day as you can, and support these thoughts and images with happy feelings (even 5 minutes will help, although it may be difficult for most of you).
*Finish If heavy losses are present, the symptoms will increase continuously. If you are tired, if it does not decrease, if excessive introversion, insomnia and avoidance behaviors increase, if there is a risk of suicide, if the symptoms are too active to provide basic needs and communication, if previous psychological problems (panic attacks, etc.) have been triggered, early specialist intervention may be required.
Our condolences. , get well soon.
