In order to study the spectrum of psychopathology in internally displaced persons (IDPs) who asked for help, 68 IDPs with three categories of diseases were examined: organic mental disorders (F06.3, F06.4); aff ective disorders (F32.1, F33.1, F34.0); neurotic disorders (F40—48).

It was established that among the surveyed IDPs, young people of working age prevail (from 40 to 49 years old — 41.18 %, from 30 to 39 years old — 23.52 % and from 18 to 29 — 20.59 %); with the presence of signifi - cant unsolved problems in the sphere of employment (52.94 % of the surveyed did not work). The clinical picture of the disease, regardless of the disorder, was characterized by polymorphism of symptoms and included a violation of the emotional spectrum, vegetative-somatic and cognitive impairment. In the structure of psychopathological manifestations in all mental disorders, there were isolated symptoms of posttraumatic disorder in the form of obsessive anxious memories of past events, fear that the situation with military actions would repeat, with dreams, accompanied by pictures of experienced events. Personal characteristics were manifested in passivity, inertia, emotional lability, reduced life satisfaction and inadequate self-esteem. All of the above should be considered when making a diagnosis, identifying specifi c targets in the development of therapeutic and rehabilitation measures.
