Description

Chronic diseases can significantly impact psychological well-being, often leading to psychopathological manifestations. The constant stress of managing symptoms, enduring treatments, and facing uncertain prognosis can exacerbate anxiety and depression. Coping with the limitations imposed by chronic illness may trigger feelings of helplessness, frustration, and grief, further straining mental health. Moreover, the stigma associated with certain chronic conditions can isolate individuals socially, compounding psychological distress. Effective management of psychopathological aspects involves holistic care that addresses both physical symptoms and emotional needs. Supportive therapies, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy and mindfulness techniques, can help patients navigate these challenges and improve their overall quality of life. Understanding and addressing the psychosocial impacts of chronic diseases are crucial for comprehensive patient care and well-being. The book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of chronic diseases and the recent researches in this field. It strives to provide a fair idea about this discipline and to help develop a better understanding of the latest advances within this field. This book will prove to be immensely beneficial to students and researchers in this field.
