EMDR in India
Description
After the earthquake in January 2001 in India,40 trained EMDR Therapists participated in helping more than 1600 people.The symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder(PTSD) were observed both in children and adults;no gross disintegration of personality was noted.Through analyzing children's drawings,the study finds the relationship between individual emotions and traumatic impact on their psychological health.Although people who had suffered greater destruction and severe loss demonstrated greater emotional upheaval,people in the large residential areas mostly intact from the earthquake felt more insecure than those in severely destructed areas,due to the threat of further destruction.
