Abstract:

Anxiety and fear are the most common emotional disorders among patients with diabetes, which have also been proved by the outcome of many researches. Both diabetes and depression belong to so called “life style” or “civilization diseases” and their development may depend on life-style – in the case of type 2 diabetes in females. Depressive symptoms are among the major contributors to non–successive aging by the influence on both mental and physical health. Depression may lead to an unhealthy life style among patients with high risk of coronary heart disease and the life-style may be one of the major factors contributing to life span. Additionally, good health perception and wellbeing exert an effect on the mortality ratio. In this article, review on psychological stress, anxiety and depression has been highlighted.
