There is a series of studies that show the presence of depressive disorders in patients with obesity concomitant type 2 diabetes mellitus, but in our study, we wanted to demonstrate the degree of severity of these changes. The aim: Diagnose depression in patients with obesity and concomitant type 2 diabetes mellitus.Materials and methods: Examine patients with obesity and concomitant type 2 diabetes mellitus and select them for research. For the diagnosis of depression were used: Patient Health Questionnaire - 2 and 9, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and Hamilton Depression Scale. Along with hypoglycemic therapy, all patients with diagnosed depression were given individual psychotherapy: cognitive behavioral therapy - 12 sessions per week, interpersonal therapy - 12 sessions per week and bibliotherapy.Results: Using the questionnaires scales, we found depressive disorders in patients with obesity and concomitant type 2 diabetes mellitus. Along with the diagnosis of depression, we managed to correct it using individual psychotherapy.Conclusions: Patients with obesity and concomitant type 2 diabetes mellitus are in a cohort with an increased risk of depression and should be diagnosed early. Given these patients polypharmacotherapy, treatment for depression should begin with non-drug therapy. |
