Maria Holovan, MSF psychologist

"People whose houses were flooded help each other as much as possible. But the destruction, the flooding, the fact that their pets, gardens, and their property in general have suffered, has a very negative impact on people. These territories were under occupation. People have gone through quite difficult times. They feel anxiety, have trouble sleeping, worry about their property. [They experience] anxiety, depression, and many people are experiencing post-traumatic stress disorder. Disbelief begins, people do not see the future. That's why we are here, so that people realize that they need to come to a psychologist. Sometimes a person just needs to be with somebody, to talk about their grief, and to get advice on what can be a resource for them. We also teach people to talk and open up so that we can provide assistance and clarify what exactly is bothering them now."
