PREVENTION OF POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER IN ATHLETES, INCLUDING IN THE CONDITIONS OF MILITARY ACTIONS IN UKRAINE

Abstract

Post-traumatic stress is defined, both in terms of terminology and content, as a special form of the general pathological reaction of the human body, which occurs in a situation (as a result) when stress (as a process) overloads the adaptive, psychophysiological resources of the human body with the occurrence of post-traumatic stress disorders. A gender (sexual) feature of the occurrence of post-traumatic stress disorders is the fact that this syndrome occurs twice as often in female adults than in male adults. The above must be taken into account in practice, both in relation to women's sports in general and the sports activities of female athletes directly, especially under the conditions of martial law, as is the case in Ukraine. The purpose of the study: to determine the main approaches to the prevention of post-traumatic stress disorder in athletes, including under the conditions of military operations in Ukraine. Research methods: theoretical analysis of scientific literature: generalization, synthesis, formalization, abstraction. Research results and conclusions. In order to prevent the occurrence of post-traumatic stress disorder in athletes, especially during the period of military operations on the territory of Ukraine, preventive measures are necessary. The main methodological approaches to the prevention of post-traumatic stress disorder in athletes under the conditions of military operations in Ukraine are proposed. A special sportsmen survey questionnaire was developed to detect possible post-traumatic stress disorder in sportsmen and women. In order to prevent the possible occurrence of PTSD, it is recommended to carry out educational work among athletes on the prevention of PTSD, to organize healthy and healthy nutrition using computer programs for assessing and correcting nutrition. It was concluded that athletes, especially during military operations, are recommended to carry out such a preventive measure as a survey using special survey questionnaires for athletes in order to prevent and diagnose the occurrence of post-traumatic stress disorder. It is desirable to carry out explanatory work with athletes regarding the prevention of post-traumatic stress disorder, especially during the military period. In order to prevent the occurrence of post-traumatic stress disorder, it is desirable to organize a healthy and healthy diet for sportsmen and especially sportswomen.
