PROJECT Technical information For more information, access the full research project: RESEARCH PROJECT RESEARCH PROJECT ABSTRACT In view of the evolution of the pandemic by COVID-19 in Brazil, and the adoption of social restriction measures, an increase in cases of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety disorders and depression is expected. In epidemic situations, mental health services can become overwhelmed; however, it is not known how these disorders evolved over time. This study aims to monitor the evolution of PTSD symptoms, anxiety and depression during the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazilians, and to investigate sociodemographic risk factors related to psychiatric history and contagion, as well as maladaptive personality traits and post-traumatic growth . It will be a longitudinal study, carried out through online questionnaires, with a sample of non-probabilistic convenience. The inclusion criteria are: being born in Brazil or residing in Brazilian territory; being over 18; have access to digital devices; and be literate. A sample of at least 2000 people is expected. The instruments applied are a research questionnaire, the Posttraumatic Checklist 5 (PCL-5), the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21), the Personality Inventory for the DSM-5 - brief form (PID-5-BF ), and the Post-Traumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI). The study will be carried out in four stages: entry, one month, three months, and six months after. The study has voluntary participation, with the agreement through the Free and Informed Consent Form. Data collection will be carried out in 2020, and the study will be completed in 2021. It will be financed with its own resources, and incentives will be sought through the agencies that promote research. Keywords: Pandemics; Psychological stress; Depression; Posttraumatic Stress Disorder; Anxiety Disorders. OBJECTIVES General Monitor the evolution of PTSD symptoms, depression and anxiety in a sample of Brazilians, during the COVID-19 pandemic, and identify sociodemographic risk factors and those related to maladaptive personality traits. Specific Identify patterns of evolution (trajectories) of PTSD symptoms; Document and report in real time the sample prevalence and severity of PTSD symptoms at the beginning, during, and in the decline of the pandemic; To verify sociodemographic risk factors and those related to maladaptive personality traits associated with PTSD symptom trajectories; Check the stability of the maladaptive personality traits during the pandemic, that is, verify that these traits remain stable even during life events, or not; Relate symptoms with variables attributed to exposure to COVID19, such as contact with cases, having contracted the disease, being in regions with high incidence, being quarantined / socially isolated and others; Compare symptoms presented by professionals who were unable to quarantine during the indicated period (professionals in essential areas, such as health, cleaning, food, delivery, etc.), with individuals who were quarantined; Relate post-traumatic growth to PTSD trajectories and personality traits. HYPOTHESES Bearing in mind that the COVID-19 pandemic is in full evolution in Brazil and in the world, and the moment in time that the country is in, this study brings the following hypotheses: H1: There are at least four trajectories of PTSD symptoms, identified over 6 months of evolution: little symptomatic (resistant), rapid recovery (resilient), gradual growth, and chronic. H2: The trajectories of more severe symptoms are associated with worse sociodemographic indicators (unemployment, being single, low income, etc.) H3: Personality traits, such as negative affectivity, disinhibition and psychoticism are associated with worse symptom evolution. H4: Post-traumatic growth, six months after the beginning of the study, is negatively associated with negative affectivity and detachment; and positively associated with psychoticism. H5: The maladaptive personality traits remain stable for six months of evolution, on the resistant and resilient trajectory.

- RESILIEIGHT | COVIDPsiq
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.

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.
