Abstract

Çocukluk çağı travması (ÇÇT), psikolojik esneklik ve obsesif kompulsif bozukluk (OKB) üçlü modeli, bunların ruh sağlığı üzerindeki birbiriyle bağlantılı etkilerini vurgulamaktadır. Ancak doğrudan bu model ile ilgili olarak Türkiye’de herhangi bir çalışma bulunmamaktadır. Bu nedenle modelin Türkiye’de kullanımı hakkında bir bilgiye ulaşılamamaktadır. Çocukluk çağı travması, duygusal düzenleme ve nörobiyolojik sistemleri bozarak OKB'ye karşı savunmasızlığı artırırken, psikolojik bu etkileri hafifletir ve semptom şiddetini azaltır. Bununla birlikte, kronik travma psikolojik esnekliği aşındırarak sıkıntıyı sürekli hale getiren geri bildirim döngüleri yaratabilir. Uyarlanabilir başa çıkma ve duygusal düzenlemeyi teşvik eden psikolojik esneklik, farkındalık temelli terapiler, güç temelli yaklaşımlar ve sosyal destek yoluyla geliştirilebilir. Travmayı ele alan, dayanıklılık inşa eden ve OKB semptomlarını hedef alan entegre, kişiselleştirilmiş tedaviler iyileşme için çok önemlidir. Risk altındaki popülasyonlara yönelik önleyici müdahaleler, travmanın uzun vadeli etkilerini daha da azaltabilir. ÇÇT, dayanıklılık ve OKB'yi birbiriyle bağlantılı faktörler olarak kavramsallaştıran üçlü model, bu durumları anlamak ve tedavi etmek için bütüncül bir yaklaşım sunmaktadır. Bu çerçeve, sıkıntının temel nedenlerini ele alan, dayanıklılığı teşvik eden ve uzun vadeli iyileşme sonuçlarını iyileştiren çok boyutlu tedavi planlarına olan ihtiyacı vurgulamaktadır.
Türkiye'de çocukluk çağı travması, psikolojik dayanıklılık ve OKB'nin araştırılması, ülkenin ruh sağlığı manzarasının anlaşılması için elzemdir. Çocukluk çağı travmasının yüksek yaygınlığı ve OKB de dahil olmak üzere çeşitli psikolojik bozukluklarla ilişkisi göz önüne alındığında, etkili müdahaleler ve destek sistemleri hakkında bilgi veren araştırmalara acil ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Ruh sağlığı uzmanları, dayanıklılık artırıcı stratejilere odaklanarak çocukluk çağı travmasının olumsuz etkilerini azaltmaya yardımcı olabilir ve OKB geliştirme riski taşıyan bireyler için daha iyi psikolojik sonuçları teşvik edebilir.

Childhood Trauma, Psychological Flexibility and OCD: ATriple Perspective

Abstract

The triadic model of childhood trauma, resilience, and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) highlights their interconnected impact on mental health. However, there is no study directly related to this model in Turkey. Therefore, there is no information on the use of the model in Turkey. Childhood trauma increases vulnerability to OCD by disrupting emotional regulation and neurobiological systems, while resilience mitigates these effects and reduces symptom severity. However, chronic trauma can erode resilience, creating feedback loops that perpetuate distress. Resilience, which fosters adaptive coping and emotional regulation, can be cultivated through mindfulness-based therapies, strength-based approaches, and social support. Integrated, personalized treatments that address trauma, build resilience, and target OCD symptoms are crucial for recovery. Preventive interventions for at-risk populations can further reduce the long-term effects of trauma. By conceptualizing childhood trauma, resilience, and OCD as interconnected factors, the triadic model provides a holistic approach to understanding and treating these conditions. This framework emphasizes the need for multidimensional treatment plans that address the root causes of distress, foster resilience, and improve long-term recovery outcomes.
The exploration of childhood trauma, psychological resilience, and OCD in Turkey is essential for understanding the mental health landscape of the country. Given the high prevalence of childhood trauma and its association with various psychological disorders, including OCD, there is a pressing need for research that informs effective interventions and support systems. By focusing on resilience-building strategies, mental health professionals can help mitigate the adverse effects of childhood trauma and promote better psychological outcomes for individuals at risk of developing OCD.
