Migraine and tension-type headache (TTH) are important health problems because cause loss of workforce, affect quality of life and are frequently associated with anxiety and depression. Illness perception is defined as a cognitive aspect of illness. The aim of this study is to determinethe relationship of migraine and TTH with quality of life, illness perception, anxiety and depression. Demographic information and headache characteristics of 160 patients (80 migraine, 80 TTH) who has applied to our hospital's neurology outpatient clinics were recorded. Hospital anxiety depression scale, illness perception questionnaire and quality of life short form-36 (SF-36) were applied to these patients. Headache severity and duration were higher in migraine patients. Migraine sufferers believed that their illness would last longer and the results would be worse. Negative emotional representations were more common in TTH patients. Understanding of the disease was higher in younger and those with higher levels of education. Social functionality and bodily pain scores were worse than those of TTH patients. Headache severity and duration were higher in women. Anxiety and depression were associated with headache frequency, duration, and severity. It was determined that the severity, duration and frequency of headache also affected the quality of life. Informing patients in detail about their diseases and increasing their education level can contribute to the improvement of headache representations. In addition, screening and treatment of anxiety and depression may be other interventions that can improve patients' adherence to treatment and quality of life. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
