This article is aimed at analyzing the psychological significance of stress in military families. It discusses how the family relationships of military personnel, particularly the impact on their wives and children, are influenced by stress, its psychological negative consequences, and the type of socio-psychological support needed for these families. The study examines the internal relationships within military families, the family support system, society's attitudes, and the formation of coping strategies used to manage stress. Qualitative and quantitative approaches were employed as the research methodology, with the goal of developing effective psychological assistance and stress management strategies for military families. The results of the study show that strengthening the social and psychological support systems is crucial for managing stress and maintaining family stability in military families.
