Abstract

In this paper the authors analyze subjective experiences on different levels (cognitive, emotional-sensory, motivational-volitional) of the people with military disability. The authors state the qualitative changes of perception, self-consciousness, body image, activity levels, and expression of emotions which can be viewed as an altered state of consciousness. It serves as a background for the mental activity of a disabled person. The authors consider some of the forms of social alienation of the people with military disability. Based on defining the altered state of consciousness as both adaptive and non-adaptive way for expressing one’s feelings, need, wishes, emotions, it can be concluded that a person with military disability can use the adaptive way to change one’s state of consciousness to find new ways of harmonizing its inner experience and feelings.
