Resumo: |
The growth of the elderly population is occurring rapidly in Brazil and will continue to grow in the coming decades, increasing coexistence between generations and demanding new mental health services for the elderly. Scientific evidence points to conflicts within the family and between generations as the main causes of suffering in old age, inciting aspects such as physical decline, suicide, and institutionalization. Thus, Brief Psychodynamic Group Psychotherapies (PPBG) are relevant practices, scientifically pointed out as valid to improve interpersonal relationships, promoting the mental health of elderly people. It is believed that the use of PPBG should be encouraged, whether in the public or private sectors, providing more access. Therefore, this research aimed to analyze the possible effects of PPBG in the management of intergenerational conflicts experienced by elderly people in their families. It is an applied, qualitative, exploratory, observational, and descriptive research, which was interested in the perception of elderly people about their experiences in a psychotherapeutic group of PPBG. Through the Literature Review, a survey of the state of the art on PPBG and family and intergenerational conflicts was carried out, and then, two groups of PPBG were organized to observe the psychotherapeutic effects, both in the year 2021, in the city of Recife. One of the groups was composed of six and the other of seven elderly people, totaling 13 participants of both sexes, aged between 60 and 84 years. A total of 16 sessions were offered in both groups, each occurring once a week and lasting one hour and 30 minutes. The elderly people participating in the groups were selected through the Mini Mental State Examination and an anamnesis, evaluating their cognitive states, the ability to get involved in groups, the existence of family and intergenerational conflicts, and the motivation for changing these conflicts. After the application of the two groups of PPBG, data collection was carried out through the psychotherapist's and cotherapist's field diaries, and semi-structured interviews, applied individually and in groups. These instruments were used to identify the themes that supported the investigation of the effects of the PPBG. The data were analyzed by the method of Content Analysis, in the thematic modality, and based on the psychoanalytic theory, which considers the subjects as having an unconscious. It was observed that the "projection of ideals" of the elderly people generated frustration when they were not approved by family members, which is one of the main drivers of intergenerational conflicts in the family. It was found that communication obstacles, aggressive impulses, the existence of traumas and mental disorders related to mood or substance use, present in the family relationship, were drivers of family conflicts. It was considered that the "intersubjectivity" and "identification" formed in the groups drove changes in the face of conflicts and strengthened the psychotherapists' interpretations during the management of PPBG. The space for speaking and listening, promoted in the two groups of PPBG, reduced the "aggressive impulses" existing in family relationships, and increased the awareness of the elderly in the face of conflicts, with effects analyzed as lasting and provoking new research. |
