Keywords:
Chronic diseases, psychological state, mental health, coping strategies, patient well-being, anxiety, depression, stress, integrated care, quality of life.Abstract
Chronic diseases significantly affect not only the physical health of patients but also their psychological well-being [1, 2, 5]. This study aims to investigate the psychological state of patients suffering from chronic illnesses, including stress levels, anxiety, depression, and coping strategies [3, 4, 7]. The research analyzes data collected from clinical observations, questionnaires, and patient interviews to identify common psychological patterns and factors influencing mental health [2, 6, 9]. Understanding the psychological aspects of chronic disease management is essential for improving overall treatment outcomes and quality of life [5, 8, 10]. The study emphasizes the need for integrated care that addresses both physical and mental health needs of patients [6, 8, 10]. The article may be useful for healthcare professionals, psychologists, and medical practitioners working with chronic disease patients [1, 4, 9].
