RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: The refugee international protection seekers show high vulnerability and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). OBJECTIVES: We used an integrated multidisciplinary approach to assess their vulnerability and psychopathology. METHODS: 180 refugees were assessed according to the criteria of the DSM-IV-TR. RESULTS: in a high percentage of political refugees the primary diagnosis of PTSD was associated with personality disorders and/or other mental disorders. CONCLUSION: Political refugees have more difficulty managing their emotions, this is probably due to one's personal history steeped in traumatic experiences, however, through a work both psychotherapeutic and pharmacological, it was possible to improve their conditions.
