Mental health can be negatively affected during life to varying degrees, from minor indispositions created by daily debates, to major psycho-social traumas that have a significant and long-term impact. Physical injuries, especially those involving limb amputation, are probably the most traumatic and hard to accept events, as they cause severe biological, psychological and social damage to the individual. Losing a limb or part of a limb leads to significant physical disability, changes in physical appearance and self-esteem, difficulty returning to work and problems with social integration. Consequently, after an amputation operation, the patient's recovery must be approached with great care. Some of the patients adapt relatively easily to the new condition, while others successfully benefit from intensive recovery programs. Unfortunately, a small group of patients fail in post-operative recovery and some even believe that isolation/suicide could be a possible solution for their difficulties.
