Can Depression Double The Risk Of Death In Heart Patients?
Depression along with heart problems could prove to be fatal!
Do you feel like your world has ended during certain days? Do you feel an utter sense of hopelessness? If yes, and if these signs have been long-standing, then it could mean that you may be suffering from depression.
As we all know, as humans we are prone to get a number of diseases in our lifetime, either physiological, mental or both!
Now, physiological and mental diseases are closely related, because in many cases, physiological diseases can show mental symptoms and vice versa.
For example, when people are affected with certain physiological disorders like thyroid, due to the hormonal imbalances, they could experience depression symptoms.
Similarly, when a person is suffering from depression, there could be physical symptoms such as stress, stomach ache, etc.
So, many a times, it could become very hard for people to decipher between certain mental and physiological illnesses, as they could be connected to each other in more ways that we think.
So,
it
is
very
important
to
take
better
care
of
our
health
and
do
everything
we
can
to
avoid
diseases!
Now,
we
know
that
heart
ailments
are
one
of
the
most
dangerous
types
of
diseases
that
could
affect
a
human
and
can
even
prove
to
be
fatal!
Heart is one of the most important vital organs of the body and when it is affected even to a small extent, it could be dangerous!
There are a number of causes for heart ailments such as defects in the heart, high cholesterol, hypertension, obesity, stress, etc.
In
extreme
cases,
one
can
even
experience
cardiac
arrests
which
could
result
in
immediate
death.
Mental
ailments
like
depression
can
make
certain
physiological
illnesses
more
pronounced.
A recent study has found that people with heart ailments who are also suffering from depression could be at a higher risk of death!
Read more to find out how the two ailments are related, here.
Link
Between
Depression
And
Heart
Ailments
When
a
person
is
diagnosed
with
even
a
simple
ailment
like
flu,
it
could
lead
to
a
lot
of
disappointment
and
frustration,
as
any
disease,
be
it
minor
or
major,
could
affect
a
person's
quality
of
life.
So, imagine the case where people are diagnosed with serious heart ailments; it is bound to make a person feel anxious and hopeless, eventually leading to depression!
Although it is easier for people to give advice to heart patients and ask them to not worry, they know their pain the best and most of them are prone to depression!
Also, in a few other cases, people who have been suffering from depression could develop heart ailments.
Either way, the risk of death increases in heart patients who also have depression, is what a team of researchers from Intermountain Medical Center Heart Institute, have found.
The researchers opine that when people with heart ailments have depression, the hormonal imbalance caused by depression could further affect the heart and lead to a relatively quicker death of the patients.
So, people with heart ailments who are also suffering from depression must seek professional help immediately.
