Polish police are openly expressing concerns about Ukrainian war veterans coming to Poland. Psychiatrist Radosław Tworus offers reassurance and explains what PTSD is.
It's hard to imagine thousands of Ukrainian veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder running around Polish streets with Kalashnikovs. If such veterans do appear, it will be a small percentage, said psychiatrist Radosław Tworus, commenting on theories spreading online.
The vision of thousands of raping and robbing Ukrainian veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder who will come to Poland after the war is completely unrealistic, I would not be afraid of it - said psychiatrist Radosław Tworus, commenting on the theories disseminated in the public space. However, Polish policemen, among others, have a different opinion.
Psychiatrist Radosław Tworus from the Military Institute of Medicine believes that the vision of thousands of aggressive Ukrainian soldiers arriving in Poland after the war is unrealistic. Post-traumatic stress disorder more often leads to withdrawal, and the risk is greater for individuals who already had personality disorders before the war.
Fears that after the war ends, thousands of Ukrainian veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) will come to Poland, rape, rob, and form mafias, are unfounded, psychiatrist Radosław Tworus says in an interview with the Polish Press Agency (PAP). He emphasizes that there is no reason to fear such a scenario.
