Gaza journalists seek psychological recovery
The article discusses the psychological state of Palestinian journalists working amidst the ongoing war in Gaza. They face psychological trauma related to loss, displacement, and constant fear due to ongoing bombings and attacks, all while remaining at risk during their work. Despite their efforts to adapt, many of them experience symptoms such as persistent tension, dissociation, guilt, and difficulty coping with severe and repeated trauma. Several Palestinian media organizations have launched mental health support programs to help manage the ongoing stress. These programs include group and individual sessions based on techniques for organizing physical responses, focusing on the concept of “ongoing traumatic pressure” rather than traditional post-traumatic stress disorder. The goal is to help journalists maintain their psychological and social resilience and to achieve gradual recovery. Emphasis is also placed on the importance of providing a continuous space to talk about fear and emotional exhaustion.
