Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Effect on Mental Health

By: Brock, Mary J.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) alludes to a group of illnesses that limit airflow in the body because of inflammation in the airways and lungs. It is frequently brought about by inhaling toxins, for example, those in cigarette smoke. Smoking cigarettes isn't the main source of COPD; notwithstanding, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, smoking is the leading reason for COPD in the United States. Individuals with COPD frequently find it challenging to perform everyday activities, as symptoms are moderate and worsen over time. COPD has numerous physical symptoms, but on the other hand it's related with high rates of anxiety and depression.
