چکیده مقاله
Climate change represents a critical global challenge with profound implications for mental health, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of its psychological impacts and potential mitigation strategies This paper synthesizes current evidence to delineate the multifaceted pathways through which climate change affects psychological well being, including elevated rates of post traumatic stress disorder, major depression, anxiety, and suicidality Beyond these acute impacts, slower onset processes such as economic disruption, displacement, and the degradation of environmental determinants of health contribute to chronic population level distress Concurrently, a distinct category of psychological responses, encompassing climate anxiety, solastalgia, and ecological grief, has emerged from the existential awareness of the escalating crisis, presenting as often debilitating yet non pathological reactions to a genuine threat In response to this complex challenge, this paper argues for a paradigm shift toward building psychological resilience, conceptualized as a multi level capacity It identifies key intervention pathways, including fostering self efficacy to empower individual action and combat helplessness, strengthening community led initiatives and social cohesion to reduce collective distress, and implementing robust public health and system level strategies to ensure mental health service delivery during climate shocks The findings reveal that protecting mental well being amidst climate change is an urgent public health imperative, requiring the integration of psychological science into adaptation policy to transform vulnerability into proactive adaptation and collective resilience
