PHILOSOPHICAL AND WORLDVIEW ASPECTS OF TEACHERS' MENTAL HEALTH IN THE CONTEXT OF THE RUSSIAN-UKRAINIAN WAR

The article is devoted to the problems of studying the philosophical and ideological aspects of the mental health of pedagogical workers at the modern historical stage. The article analyzes the impact of the Russian-Ukrainian war on the mental health of the educational community, as one of the main social institutions, and develops an algorithm for the ideological and psychological restoration of the personality. A mentally healthy person has a number of basic behavioral and ideological characteristics, among which the following can be identified: awareness of one’s emotional state; independence in making decisions; enjoyment of life and awareness of the value of life in general; high-quality communication with the ability to establish relationships with new people and people who have different views; the ability to adapt to new conditions and stressful situations; openness to learning and gaining new experience. The Russian-Ukrainian war caused complex psychological stress. Modern studies have recorded two aspects of psychological stress – informational and emotional. There is a high level of emotional burnout in society, degradation of the emotional and moral sphere. The main negative processes occur at three levels: biological, when the work of the organism is disrupted; mental, which includes mental health; socio-psychological, because of which a person loses the meaning of life and does not see himself/herself in the future. Algorithms and mechanisms that will contribute to the restoration of a person’s mental health constitute a complex system that has a direct impact on the individual’s worldview. The main factors of this system are: maintaining physical health; harmonizing work processes with a clear demarcation of working time and space; positive communication and positive perception of oneself; overcoming the inferiority complex and other stereotypes and information viruses of consciousness; returning the integrity of being through the restoration of harmonious control over one’s life; active activity and emotional involvement in historical processes. When the mental health of educators is restored, it affects not only the professional activities of teachers, but also the life of the community as a whole.
