This is a case study carried out in a city in the countryside of Sao Paulo, SP, Brazil in 2015 with the objective of understanding the emotional impact and the coping of a patient who experienced a trophoblastic pregnancy. A non-directive interview with a therapeutic character was used in the study and the interpretation of the data was made through thematic content analysis. There were two categories: " The mourning process " and " The psychic imbalance and its symptoms ". Subjective suffering was observed, as well as the extent to which a complication during pregnancy together with personal aspects related to the life history (various processes of mourning) had shaken the patient. However, there was a recovery of her mental health through psychiatric and psychological follow-up. The professional care promoted the understanding, leading to resilience and, consequently, recovering the psychic balance. |
