Emotional influence of mass tragedy
The consequence of the mass tragedy often brings a wave of intense emotions – shock, sadness, a sense of loss and deep uncertainty. D -R -Gupto, Chief Director and Chief of Neurology, Fortis Hospital, says: “Along with people who have survived it first -mouth, people who are not directly related and participate can also feel significant anxiety in their future, and in this case their future travel plans.” Survivors may be afraid that in the future they will again face similar traumatic events.
Consumption of news and scrolling in social media, especially focused on a particular incident, can cause. “It can leave a direct effect on the brain, causing feelings of fear even more. You can also experience deep sadness for people who have lost their lives in the incident,” the D -R is conducted.
