Psychological Health of Migrants
Psychological Health of Migrants
Sluzki has identified five stages of the migration
process. Each of these stages may be associated with particular forms of stress or negative feelings for the migrants, which may in turn lead
to psychological and physical health problems. Yet,
the psychological burden of migration does not usually
manifest itself soon after arrival in the host country.
It is during the decompensation stage that problems,
which may have been suppressed in earlier stages,
present as somatic complaints. Exacerbations of chronic
conditions for which care was not sought on time, because other concerns (such as basic survival) were more pressing, will also surface.
