Psychological problems of women working in the sex business
Original language description
The study deals with the psychological problems of women working in the sex business. The most frequent mentioned psychological problems of these women are depression, then emotional exhaustion and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Posttraumatic stress disorder in women working in the sex business is connected with sex violence, mostly from a client, but also with sexual abuse in childhood or physical and psychological abuse. Posttraumatic stress disorder may be accompanied by dissociative disorder when a person experiences unbearable emotion, memories or thoughts that form the basis for other mental and physical symptoms. Psychological problems, however, are not only connected with women working in the sex business but also with women who have already left this business; as it resulted from the research, the so-called ?ex-prostitutes? have significantly higher problems with alcohol and smoking, and more frequent PTSD symptoms than other women. The study is an output of the GAJU project No. 029/2016/S ? Lifestyle of women in the private sex business and their (self) reflection
