Coronavirus breathing: on the implementation of remote psychological assistance during a pandemic

Dilyara N. Efremova

In the situation, associated with the introduction of the self-isolation regime during the COVID-19 pandemic, the remote form of psychological assistance has confirmed its relevance. Features of the development of anxiety reactions in people who seek psychological help have shown the need to introduce information hygiene rules. A sense of danger and an excessive flow of information about it accelerate the development of stressful reactions in people with different levels of perception of the situation. Continual information on the topic related to mortal danger is a trigger for the development of hysteria, panic attacks, conflicts and domestic violence, disorders of the depressive spectrum and, including paradoxical behavior, a complete denial of danger.These and other issues are covered in the interview with D. N. Efremova, the practicing psychologist. Questions were asked by N. S. Kramarenko, the deputy editor-in-chief of the electronic journal Bulletin of Moscow Region State University, Doctor of Psychological sciences.
