Register here! The COVID-19 pandemic brought with it the experience of stress and trauma. This is due to situations that are directly related, such as social isolation, illness and bereavement, and also indirectly, such as economic losses and interpersonal violence. Stress and trauma, in this context, reach epidemic proportions and differ from the usual pre-pandemic, as they are collective and continuous. Based on the knowledge developed by the COVIDPsiq research, which has been studying the mental health of Brazilians, as well as that of parallel works, this course is being proposed to update health professionals on the subject. The course intends to explore the topic from assessment to treatment, including the various disorders arising from the hospital and emergency perspective. ABOUT email inscrição Research project: Monitoring the evolution of post-traumatic symptoms, depression and anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazilians We are going through a completely atypical period in our lives, due to the spread of the coronavirus and the strategies to face it. Isolation, contagion, financial problems, stigma and boredom are things that generate stress during the pandemic, for example, and can precipitate mental disorders. As a result, we want to know how people are coping with the pandemic, what factors are related to emotional, cognitive and behavioral symptoms, and how the symptoms evolve over time. The scientific evidence produced by this research will serve as a reference for government and private intervention actions. know more Responsible Researcher Victor Crestani Calegaro, MD, PhD ​ Graduated in Medicine from the Federal University of Santa Maria (2007).

ABOUT The coordinator of the COVIDPsiq project, Prof. Dr. Vitor Calegaro, makes 8 recommendations for maintaining mental health and well-being in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. ​ The video is part of the RESILIEIGHT initiative, which consists of a program to reinforce resilience in order to promote mental health and prevent mental disorders resulting from stress and trauma situations. The video is intended for the general population in order to contribute to the maintenance of mental / emotional balance, and is not limited to the current context. ​ The recommendations are based on several studies on disaster resilience, including the experience from the Kiss nightclub fire, and it comes from the author's doctoral thesis. RECOMMENDATIONS Keep a healthy body Physical exercise and the maintenance of healthy eating habits are directly associated with mental health. ​ ​ ​ ​ Respect your rhythms Respecting biological (food, sleep, menstrual and sexual cycle) and social rhythms (cycles of activity and rest, work and leisure, weekends and holidays) is essential for maintaining mental health. ​ Focus on positive thoughts and emotions Resilient people tend to see the positive side of things; emotions color experiences, while thoughts give meaning to them. ​ Have a purpose in life To have purpose, you must have life experience: experiment, invent, try, have clear and realistic dreams and goals. ​ ​ ​ Cultivate healthy relationships Be tolerant, empathetic, avoid judgment and seek compassion; get rid of toxic relationships and seek to build a support network. ​ ​ ​ ​ Invest in internal resources Have a clean, active, attentive and prepared mind; feed your brain, develop skills and avoid information overload, reducing the use of cell phones and social networks. ​ ​ Accept and thank Live one day after another. Accept your defects, but know your qualities; accept what cannot be changed and change what is possible. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Believe it ​ Beliefs help to give meaning to life, because not everything is understood by reason. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

Dial 100 receives, analyzes and forwards reports of human rights violations related to the following groups and / or themes: Children and adolescents Old people Disabled people People in restriction of freedom LGBT population Homeless population Ethical or racial discrimination Trafficking in persons Slavery Land and agrarian conflicts Housing and urban conflicts Violence against gypsies, quilombolas, indigenous people and other traditional communities Police violence (including from public security forces within the scope of federal intervention in the state of Rio de Janeiro) Violence against communicators and journalists Violence against migrants and refugees Dial 100 works daily, 24 hours a day, including Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. ​ Military Police (Dial 190) - It is the telephone number of the Military Police that should be called in cases of immediate need or quick help.

Volunteer professionals in the areas of mental health, social work, law and psychology, as well as professionals from the University's Multiprofessional Health Residence will be responsible for listening. We are a family owned and operated business. The service, which has an emergency character, will operate during the isolation period, initially, until June.
