المشكلات الزواجية وتغيير الأدوار المرأة في ظهور الاضطرابات السيكوسوماتية لدى المرأة المتزوجة قبل سن اليأس:دراسة عيادية بالمؤسسة الاستشفائية "الدكتور أحمد مدغري" بعين تموشنت

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the impact of marital problems and role changes on the onset of psychosomatic disorders in premenopausal women by examining the relationship between marital problems and role changes, which are considered risk factors for psychosomatic disorders. It also seeks to understand how unexpressed psychological stress can manifest as physical symptoms. This topic is considered one of the most important in clinical psychology, especially in light of the social changes that have occurred in the family structure, such as women assuming roles other than their own—roles that were in the past the exclusive domain of men—which gave rise to psychological pressures that manifested as physical symptoms. The methodology employed is clinical, as we conducted a case study using a sample of two cases at the Ahmed Madghari Public Hospital in Tamouchent. We utilized a range of tools, including observation, various types of interviews, and scales measuring marital compatibility, role conflict, and psychosomatic disorders. The aim was to gather accurate information about the psychological and physical condition, and through this study, we reached the following conclusions: There is a clear relationship between the increase or exacerbation of marital problems and role changes and their impact on the emergence of psychosomatic disorders. It also became evident that psychological stress can manifest as physical symptoms. Our study concluded that both cases suffer from poor psychological compatibility and high role conflict, which led to the emergence of moderate physical disorders. Finally, this study concluded with recommendations, including the need to nurture the marital relationship through effective communication and each partner’s commitment to their respective roles to alleviate psychological stress and prevent psychosomatic disorders.
