Anxiety Disorders And Comorbidities
نویسنده
چکیده
1 Louise just came out of the doctor’s office, after having received a diagnosis of major depression. She feels relieved to know that she will finally be able to get help for her problems. On the other hand, she remains ambivalent about what she could have told the doctor and did not dare to talk about, like the aggression she experienced that continues to haunt her every day, her frequent alcohol consumption and her uneasiness when talking to strangers for fear of being laughed at. She said to herself : «to receive one diagnosis is enough» and «they will think I am crazy». Yet, it is not rare or embarrassing to suffer from more than one problem at the same time. This is called a comorbidity.
