Israel War Impact: 435,000 in Therapy
An Israeli study reported that approximately 435,000 Israelis are currently receiving psychological treatment following the war, with a 16.7% increase in the use of sedatives. The report showed that the ongoing conflict since October 2023 has led to a sharp rise in mental health disorders among both military personnel and civilians, including a deterioration in soldiers' mental health, waves of mass trauma, and an increase in the number of those affected—from 62,000 before the war to about 87,000. The Ministry of Security projected that the numbers could exceed 100,000 injured within a year, alongside rising rates of suicide, addiction, and psychological recovery, amid continued tensions within Israeli society.
