Saint-Martin Santé: First discussion workshop on post-Irma stress management

0

The Saint-Martin Santé association, with the collaboration of COM, Trait d'union, city psychotherapists, general practitioners, social workers, and hospital psychologists, carried out the first exchange workshop on stress management: "Feeling of my chronic illness after IRMA"

The session took place in Quartier d'Orléans on Wednesday January 24, 2018 at 14 p.m. The support group was made up of people with high blood pressure, diabetes and most of both.

The words, the sentences are "released":

"… .. I was afraid… the wind was terrible… I was afraid of dying… I have had palpitations since… IRMA has changed everyday life… Ah, it's hard… I have stress… bad experience… I prayed a lot… ”

This meeting allowed them to express their fear, their feeling of helplessness and imminent death in connection with the passage of Hurricane Irma. All this in a spirit of modesty and conviviality.

Other workshops are planned in Quartier d'Orléans and in other sectors of Saint-Martin in English, French, Creole and Spanish.
