A triad of interconnected feelings: pain, aggression, emptiness

The research of the triad of feelings of pain, aggression, and emptiness in the context of the war in Ukraine is relevant and essential for understanding their impact on the health and quality of life of victims, the development of support and rehabilitation, and the process of rebuilding society after the conflict. The purpose of the research on interrelated feelings is to understand their interconnection and influence on each other, to identify the factors and mechanisms underlying this triad, and to determine their impact on human well-being.

Systematisation, analysis, comparison, and typological approach.

The research has identified that emptiness can increase the feeling of pain, and pain can cause a feeling of emptiness. An analysis of the relationship between feelings of pain and aggression demonstrates that pain can lead to aggressive reactions, and aggression can increase feelings of pain. In addition, it was identified that aggression can increase feelings of emptiness, and emptiness can lead to aggression; risk factors associated with feelings of pain, aggression, and emptiness were found. The research surveyed 100 Ukrainians of all ages on the presence of strong feelings, including pain, aggression, and emptiness. The highest rates of pain (12) were reported by representatives of 26-35 years old, aggression (13) - 18-25 years old, and emptiness (7) - 36-45 years old.

These results provide a deeper understanding of the interaction between these feelings and their impact on human psychological processes, and disclose the causal connections between feelings of pain, aggression, and emptiness, helping to understand how these feelings can interact and affect people's lives and well-being. The results of the research can be used by scientists, practical psychologists, and psychotherapists to develop effective strategies and interventions for managing destructive feelings.
