Alena Kurilova explains how to survive in the terrible conditions of reality
No one in the world could have imagined that in the 21st century what is happening on the territory of Ukraine – the genocide of the civilian population, which the world has not seen since the Second World War, could happen. While Ukrainian soldiers selflessly defend their country and successfully confront the enemy, civilians are gripped by horror. How can a man survive a war who watches the news day and night and wakes up to the sound of sirens? How do you stay afloat when nothing in life seems to make sense anymore? Today, the editors will share the advice of psychologists.
“Everything can be taken away from a person except one thing: a person’s last freedom – to choose his own attitude to any circumstances, to choose his own path.” – Viktor Frankl Austrian psychologist not only survived in a concentration camp, but also retained the best mental qualities. In part, he was helped by daily recordings of his own experiences and those of those around him.
Ukrainian psychologist Elena Adamova says that if a person wants to live, he will live. The task is to set your consciousness on a positive wave. It is necessary to find in this situation the meaning of life that will pull a person by the hair when all hope is lost. You have to tell yourself “I will survive” and focus on life, not the horrors that surround you.
In today’s world, it’s hard to focus on something positive when you’re reading the news 24 hours a day. People who are somehow involved in helping refugees or the military, it is easier to cope with apathy and despondency, because they feel needed. At the same time, the people who kept their jobs are also very important in their place for Ukraine. In order not to lose heart and not to succumb to fear and panic, you need to follow a certain algorithm.
A person is able to adapt to the most extreme situations. In order to survive today, you have to plan for tomorrow. Saying to yourself, “I will finish the job to which I devoted years of my life”, “I must feed the cat and call loved ones”, “I will be strong for my children, parents” and so on.
Before going to bed, focus on what you will do tomorrow. It is important to be grateful every day for what you have. Gratitude means that you have a reason to live, that life is worth all the effort and you simply cannot give up when the military protects civilians. It should be understood that people on the front lines are fighting for Ukrainian mothers, children, grandparents to feel protected and free.
Being careful is necessary, but this does not mean that you need to sit in one place. Degradation and apathy are not what Ukrainian soldiers give their lives for in war. Before the war, many people did sports, went for a run, meditated. A simple 10-minute charge at home is invigorating and uplifting. Any physical activity is a bit of a distraction from news and endless stress: walking your dog, cycling to the grocery store, and so on.
You can distract your mind only by doing: cleaning the house, cooking, washing dishes. The main thing is to focus your thoughts only on the process. Psychologists say that it is easier to distract those who are engaged in physical activity. Since people of intellectual labor experience the situation many times more difficult. The opportunity to volunteer is great, the opportunity to work and support the economy is very good.
Giving up or continuing to do something is a choice. And if a person gives up, then the chances for a bright future are very small. In this difficult time for all Ukrainians showed the whole world what unity and patriotism are.
When you do not see the meaning in your life and find no reason to hold on to it, hold on to loved ones. Your parents need you, you need to take care of your children. It is much harder to cope with experiences alone than together. Call your parents, talk to your friends, support people with word and deed.
