The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on individuals' sense of self perturbating the sense of connectedness with the others, touching upon deep existential fears and deep intersubjective and cultural layers, emphasizing the importance of a neuro-socio-ecological alignment for the sense of security of psychological self. We can still observe after years how social distancing measures, quarantines, and lockdowns have disrupted social connections and routines, leading to feelings of isolation, anxiety and depressive symptomatology. Furthermore, from a physiological perspective, some people continue to experience health problems long after having COVID-19, and these ongoing health problems are sometimes called post-COVID-19 syndrome or post-COVID conditions (PASC). In this complex scenario, through the operationalization of the sense of self and its psychological and physiological baseline, our aim is to try to shed some new light on elements of resilience vs. vulnerability. Here we intend the self and its baseline as the crossroads between psychology and physiology and we show how COVID-19 pandemic, especially in post-COVID-19 syndrome (PACS), left traces in the mind-body-brain system at a neuro-socio-ecological and inflammatory level.
新冠疫情对个人的自我认知产生了深远影响，扰乱了与他人的联系感，触及深层次的生存恐惧以及主体间和文化层面，凸显了神经-社会-生态协调对于心理自我安全感的重要性。多年后我们仍能观察到，社交距离措施、隔离和封锁如何扰乱了社会联系和日常活动，导致孤独感、焦虑和抑郁症状。此外，从生理角度来看，一些人在感染新冠病毒很久之后仍持续存在健康问题，这些持续的健康问题有时被称为新冠后综合征或新冠后状况（PASC）。在这一复杂情形下，通过对自我认知及其心理和生理基线进行操作化，我们的目标是尝试为恢复力与脆弱性的相关因素提供一些新的见解。在此，我们将自我及其基线视为心理学与生理学的交叉点，并展示新冠疫情，尤其是在新冠后综合征（PACS）中，如何在神经-社会-生态和炎症层面在身心脑系统中留下痕迹。
