Nesiller Arası İz: Travma, Dissosiyasyon ve Anne-bebek Bağlanması Üzerine

This book explores the intergenerational transmission and effects of trauma, dissociation, and mother-infant attachment through psychological, neurobiological, and social perspectives. The first section provides an in-depth examination of the definition, historical evolution, and neurobiological foundations of dissociation, emphasizing that traumatic experiences can trigger dissociative responses which may serve adaptive or pathological functions. The second section discusses the concept of disorganized attachment and mechanisms by which it is transmitted from mother to child, highlighting the influence of the mother's caregiving history, mental state, and dissociative defense mechanisms on mother-infant interactions. It also suggests that clinical interventions can disrupt this cycle. The final section revisits postpartum depression from a nervous system perspective, detailing the biological, psychological, and social transformations during the transition to motherhood. It focuses on autonomic nervous system functioning, interoception, and mother-infant co-regulation, arguing that postpartum depression is a complex biopsychological process. Overall, the book underscores the value of an interdisciplinary approach in trauma and mental health fields and stresses the importance of early intervention for maternal and infant well-being.
