Aim

To study clinical features of PTSD and adjustment disorders

in refugees from the zone ATO.

Methods

We have a complex psychopathological and psychodi-

agnostic research 156 refugees in volunteer center in Kharkiv.

Results

Among the IDPs observed, 75.9% have violations of

adaptation: long-term depressive reaction and predominant dis-

turbance of other emotions. The men reactive alarm indicators

(average – 37.7

±

3.0), were higher than trait anxiety (aver-

age – 32.6

±

2.9). On the contrary, women figures trait anxiety

(average – 38.6

±

2.9) were higher than reactive anxiety (aver-

age – 34.7

±

3.0). Severity of depressive symptoms also slightly

prevailed in women. The mean score on the Hamilton scale for men

was 17.0

±

2.3 points, women – 18.0

±

2.3 points.

Test results on a scale of quality of life showed no significant dif-

ferences between men and women. We have developed a medical

and psychological support system to correct the neurotic disorders

in refugees.

Conclusions

The majority of people who left the ATO zone have

psycho-emotional disorders of different severity and require a fur-

ther correction in the specialized medical institutions.

Introduction

Mental health professionals find it very challenging

to provide counselling and therapy when confronted with disclo-

sures of ritual, satanic and extreme abuse. Psychometric andmuscle

testing can facilitate diagnosis and healing in this context. Psy-

chiatrists of renown such as David Hawkins and Colin Ross have

embraced and written about energetic medicine in their practice.

Objectives

The presentation explains how somatoform disso-

ciations are tell-tale indications of abuse and neglect of early

childhood trauma and how ‘Energetics’ therapy facilitates healing.

Aims

Delegates will learn to recognise somatoform dissociation

symptoms, understand advances and limitations of psychometric

assessment tools, appreciate energetics approaches as an adjunct

to other intervention methods and gain an insight into the origins

of complex trauma.

Methods

Two case studies are used to illustrate causes, impact,

diagnosis and healing of complex trauma.

Results

A set of psychometric assessments helped to unravel a

chilling revictimisation crime series. ‘Twice Exceptional’ character-

istics were very high IQ coupled with Dyslexia, very weak auditory

memory and psychic capabilities. In another case that stemmed

from extreme abuse of ancient, commercial and high-tech vari-

eties muscle testing and energetics therapy lead to a remarkable

recovery.

Conclusions

Psychometric and muscle testing can inform diag-

nosis, therapy and healing. Energetics can be used to bring about

profound healing for those who have repressed severe trauma. This

method has many advantages in that parts of it are easily learned,

it is non-invasive, has no side effects, gives patients control over

their reactions, eliminates triggers and offers healing.

Purpose

Single prolonged stress (SPS) is an animal model of post-

traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Until now, it has not been known

how PTSD develops from the first exposure to traumatic events

and neurochemical differences between acute/single stress and

PTSD-triggering stress. The object of this study is to determine neu-

rochemical changes in prefrontal cortex of rats using in vivo proton

magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) at 9.4 T.

Method and Materials

Male Sprague–Dawley rats (

n

= 11; mean

body weight: 200–220 g) were used. The SPS was used in this

study. Rats were restrained for 2 h and then immediately forced

to swim for 20min in water (20–24 C). After a 15min recupera-

tion period, rats were exposed to ether until anesthesia occurred.

MRS was performed 30min before SPS, 30min after the stressors,

3 and 7 days after the stressors to investigate time-dependent

changes on metabolites levels in the PFC. Acquisition of MRI/MRS

was conducted at four time points using 9.4 T Agilent Scanner. Con-

centration of metabolites was quantified by LCModel. A one-way

ANOVA test with Tukey’s HSD post-hoc test was used for statistical

analyses.

Results

The SPS resulted in altered absolute metabolite

concentrations for GABA [F(3.0) = 1.450,

P

= 0.035], glutamate

[F(3.0) = 3.417,

P

= 0.026], glutathione [F(3.0) = 3.759,

P

= 0.018],

NAA [F(3.0) = 3.919,

P

= 0.015], total choline [F(3.0) = 7.584,

P

= 0.000], total NAA [F(3.0) = 3.760,

P

= 0.018], total creatine

[F(3.0) = 3.248,

P

= 0.032] and glutamine/glutamate [F(3.0) = 3.552,

P

= 0.023] among the four time points.

Conclusion

PTSD in human is associatedwith decreased neuronal

activity in the PFC. In this study, SPS decreased glutamate (excita-

tory) and total choline (membrane turnover) on day 7.

In Ukraine, the significant participants of the “Anti-Terroristic

Operation” (ATO) need to provide a system of psychiatric, psy-

chotherapeutic assistance. The 6 groups of disorders:
