Rescue the Thai team: The boys may suffer a life-long trauma

The boys who were rescued for more than 2 weeks stuck in Tham Luang cave may face psychological trauma and are haunted all their lives.

Some experts are concerned that boys may never swim, fear in the dark room or in a closed room.

The two boys are believed to have been rescued by divers.

Dr. Jennifer Wild, a psychology expert at Oxford University, said the dreadful memories could haunt the boys every day.

According to Wild, the boys should consider this a 'strange journey' , rather than the event that made them almost die, to avoid post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) .

'As long as the boys can focus on what happens, they have survived they will only remember good memories , ' said Wild. 'But there is also the possibility that horrifying memories will haunt them for life.'

The boys may become afraid of the dark, afraid of being alone in the room, or not wanting to go swimming again.'This is a normal reaction of the body, which can last for several months but can be more severe and requires psychological treatments'.

To escape, the boys have to cross many narrow areas.

Another expert, Andrea Danese, warned that the boys in the football team could experience stress and stress for months after being rescued.

However, Dr. Danese expressed optimism that young people can easily overcome and symptoms will disappear within a few weeks.

Some doctors believe that the network of tunnels that boys and coaches are stuck for more than 2 weeks has the potential to make them physically threatened.

Lack of sunlight for a long time can lead to disorientation, losing some basic functions such as sleep.

Their immune system is also threatened by malnutrition and lack of sleep. They may have infectious diseases.

Dr. Sarb Johal from Massey University said that all the behaviors, metabolism, and body temperature of the boys were affected by the long time of being stuck in the cave.
