In the study of the state of the psycho-emotional sphere of volunteers whose activities are related to providing the military in a combat zone, signs of a depressive reaction of varying severity were revealed, significantly more common than in a sample of ordinary people. This indicates that volunteer activity carries with it the potential risks of developing psycho-emotional disorders.
