LOZANO, Juan Esteban et al. Depression, Anxiety, Interpersonal Support, and Self-Perceived Pain in Fibromyalgia Syndrome Patients. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.16, n.2, pp.399-411. Epub 01-Jul-2020. ISSN 1794-9998. https://doi.org/10.15332/22563067.5007.
The fibromyalgia syndrome (fs) is a pathology that generates great difficulty in movements, fatigue, and pain in different parts of the body, affecting severely the quality of life. This study was aimed to determine the indicators of depression, anxiety, interpersonal support, self-perceived pain, and their relationship in a sample of patients with fsin Colombia. The following tests were applied to 100 patients: State Trait Anxiety Inventory, Zung’s Depression Scale, Interpersonal Support Evaluation List, and Analogue Pain Scale. Moderate levels of depression and anxiety were reported, specific difficulties in social support, and high levels of self-perceived pain. Depression scores were positively associated with state and trait anxiety scores but negatively associated with social support. In conclusion, mental health, interpersonal support, and self-perceived pain are affected in fs patients. It is necessary to adjust the clinical care protocols to preserve and enhance the integral health of those affected.
