1. Anxiety and depression
According to research, roughly half of the people who are diagnosed with this disease might experience some kind of emotional distress due to the condition. Someone’s mood might fluctuate for a variety of reasons, and many patients said that they’ve experienced a wide range of emotions, from sadness, daytime sleepiness, and loss of interest to irritability and trouble sleeping.
Besides that, those who suffer from anxiety typically report being “on edge,” a state characterized by excessive worry or concern. Sometimes, they’re so worried about what’s going to happen that they can’t focus on their actual lives.
