HISTÓRIAS DE VIDA E SAÚDE MENTAL: REVISÃO DO PAPEL DA NARRATIVA AUTOBIOGRÁFICA NO ENVELHECIMENTO
Resumo
De acordo com análises demográficas realizadas, observou-se um aumento progressivo na proporção de pessoas idosas na população ao longo do século XX. Nesse contexto, a prática de narrar histórias autobiográficas emerge como um ato imaginativo que envolve vários processos cognitivos, visando estabelecer conexões, empatia e afetividade. Com base nisso, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo explorar as evidências científicas sobre o papel da narrativa autobiográfica no bem-estar psicológico de pessoas idosas, com foco em intervenções que utilizam essa prática. Para isso, empregou-se como metodologia a revisão integrativa de literatura. As fontes de informação utilizadas incluíram as bases de dados eletrônicas Medline via Pubmed, Scielo, Pepsic e Lilacs. As buscas nessas bases foram conduzidas utilizando os seguintes descritores: “Envelhecimento”, “Memória Autobiográfica”, “Psicoterapia” e “Narrativa Pessoal”. A escolha desses descritores levou em consideração a busca na plataforma DeCS/MeSH (Descritores em Ciências da Saúde). Na análise inicial nos bancos de dados, foram encontrados 120 artigos. Após análise preliminar de todos esses dados, restaram 9 artigos para a revisão. Os resultados indicaram que a prática de narrar histórias autobiográficas está significativamente associada à melhoria do bem-estar psicológico em indivíduos idosos, com efeitos positivos como a redução de sintomas depressivos, fortalecimento da identidade e promoção de um senso de continuidade e propósito de vida. Conclui-se que a narrativa autobiográfica desempenha um papel crucial na promoção da saúde mental no envelhecimento e longevidade, servindo como uma ferramenta terapêutica eficaz para o envelhecimento saudável.
