Vivencia e impacto en la salud mental y las emociones de quienes transitaron la enfermedad por Covid-19

Abstract

This document exposes the emotional experiences of four people who acquired and went through the disease caused by the Covid-19 virus, in the midst of the context of a health emergency and confinement in the city of Bogotá. Starting from a psychosocial approach, where the emotional dimension is central to human development, the research draws attention to the impact on mental health of the general population, as well as of people, who in particular experienced the disease. It shows how, through conducting interviews, the subjects manifest emotions such as fear, anger and sadness, which sometimes triggered feelings of uncertainty, anxiety or depression.
