| Summary: | The review of data from the available literature cites the results of studies of psychological disorders comorbid to multiple sclerosis and highlights scientific papers detailing domestic and foreign research. The high prevalence of affective and adaptive impairment is linked both to the neurophysiological particularities of this chronic, progressive, neurodegenerative illness and to psychological factors — individual personality traits and the attitude of those afflicted to their illness, to the change in their social functioning and to their prognosis. It is demonstrated that patients with multiple sclerosis have a significantly higher frequency of depressive and anxiety disorders than the general population, which suggests the need for an integrated, personalized approach to people with this illness. |
