The impact of a mental disorder on the patient\u27s quality of life

Kakovost življenja in z njo sreča, ni pogojena samo s posameznikovim finančnim stanjem in imetjem, ampak predvsem s tem kako zadovoljen je s svojim življenjem. Kakovost življenja ima velik pomen tudi za paciente z duševno motnjo, saj so zaradi svojega stanja velikokrat prikrajšani pri osnovnih stvareh, ki vplivajo na zadovoljstvo v življenju. Pregled literature je pokazal, da na kakovost življenja pacienta z duševno motnjo vpliva veliko dejavnikov, tako pri pacientih pred hospitalizacijo kot pri pacientih v času hospitalizacije in ponovnemu vključevanju v družbo po hospitalizaciji. Najpomembnejši izmed teh dejavnikov so družina in njena podpora, stigma, razpoložljiva pomoč in možnosti zaposlitve, ki posamezniku omogočajo karseda normalno in neodvisno življenje. V diplomskem delu smo raziskali, kako posamezni dejavniki vplivajo na življenje pacienta z duševno motnjo in ugotovili, da kljub izobraževanju na tem področju in porastu v pojavu duševnih motenj, paciente še zmeraj spremlja močna stigma. Ta izvira iz nerazumevanja duševnih motenj, saj je vsaka drugačna in posebna tako kot tudi vsak posameznik, ki za to motnjo zboli.The quality of life, and with it happiness, is not conditioned solely on the individual\u27s financial situation and property, but above all, how satisfied he is with his life. The quality of life is also important for patients with a mental disorder, because they are often deprived of their basic state of things because of their state of health. A review of literature has shown that the quality of life of a patient with a mental disorder is influenced by many factors, both in patients from hospitalization and in patients during hospitalization and reintegration into society after hospitalization. The most important of these factors are the family and its support, stigma, available help and employment opportunities that allow an individual to live a normal, independent life. In the diploma work, we investigated how individual factors influence the life of a patient with a mental disorder and found that, despite education in this field and an increase in the occurrence of mental disorders, patients are still accompanied by strong stigma. This originates from the misunderstanding of mental disorders, since each is different and special, just like any individual who falls ill with this disorder
