The subacute period was characterized by the predominance of posttraumatic stress disorders (PTSD), whereas the long-term posttraumatic period by personality disorders pertaining to the asthenic (type I) and asthenic (type II) sphere. The clinical characteristics of type I patients was determined by a range of asthenic, psychasthenic, autistic, sensitive, subdepressive, and hystero-conversion disorders, whereas from the clinicopsychological standpoint, by a high level of somatization, anxiety, depressive disorders, with the aggressiveness level corresponding with normal. It has been established that social rehabilitation of such patients requires measures aimed at an increase of the activity and improvement of communicative functions.
