Kaygı Bozuklukları: Duygular, Duygu Düzenleme ve Tedavi Yöntemleri

Öz

Gündelik hayatta birçok duygu deneyimleriz ve bu duygular hayatın birçok alanda hayati role sahiptir. Bu duygular çoğunlukla normal ve işlevsel olurken aşırı, yoğun ve uzun süreli deneyimlenen duygular kişinin işlevselliğini ciddi ölçüde zedeleyebilmektedir. Kaygı bozuklukları üst başlığı altında ele alınan bozukluk listesine göz gezdirdiğimizde bu alanların her birinde duyguyla ilişkili süreçlerin önemli bir etkiye sahip olduğu görülmektedir. Ancak sanılanın aksine yalnızca kaygı ve korku gibi temel duygular değil aynı zamanda tiksinti, öfke, suçluluk ve utanç gibi duyguların da dikkate alınması gereken bir role sahip olduğu bilinmektedir. Bu çalışmada bahsi geçen duyguların ve duygu düzenleme süreçlerinin kaygı bozukluklarındaki rolü tartışılmıştır. Akabinde Bilişsel Davranışçı Terapi, Kabul ve Kararlılık Terapisi ve Metakognitif terapilerin kaygı bozukluğu ile çalışırken psikoterapide duyguları nasıl ele aldıklarına kısaca değinilmiştir. Bu çalışmanın psikoterapide duyguların rolünün daha iyi anlaşılması için bir temel oluşturması ve bu alandaki çalışmalar için yeni bakış açıları sunması amaçlanmaktadır.

Anxiety Disorders: Emotions, Emotion Regulation and Treatment Methods

Öz

We experience many emotions in daily life and these emotions play a vital role in many areas of life. While these emotions are mostly normal and functional, excessive, intense and prolonged emotions can seriously damage the functionality of the person. When we take a look at the list of disorders under the title of anxiety disorders, it is seen that emotional processes have a significant effect in each of these areas. However, contrary to popular belief, it is known that not only some core emotions such as anxiety and fear, but also disgust, anger, guilt and shame have a role to be considered. In this study, the role of these emotions and emotion regulation skills in anxiety disorders is discussed. Subsequently, how Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Metacognitive therapy address emotions in psychotherapy when working with anxiety disorders is briefly mentioned. This study is intended to provide a basis for a better understanding of the role of emotions in psychotherapy and to offer new perspectives for studies in this field.
