WHO expects that around 9.6 million people in Ukraine might have psychological disorders. According to Dr Hans Kluge, the Head of WHO European Region, at present almost 10 million Ukrainians are potentially at risk of having psychological disorders, such as acute stress, anxiety, depression, consummation of psychoactive substances and post traumatic stress disorder. People in the regions that suffered from the conflict the most demonstrate the biggest need of assistance, but the population in relatively safer parts of the country also suffers from anxiety or grief, has sleeping disorders, fatigue, anger and indiscernible somatic symptoms.

According to the prognosis of The Ministry of Health of Ukraine, in the nearest few years around 15 million Ukrainians will need psychological support because of sufferings and loss, caused by the war. The majority of the interviewed (above 90%) have experienced the displays of at least one of the symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder, and 57% of citizens are at risk of development of post traumatic stress disorder.
