[Being a stroke patient. Psychosocial aspects].
In this article I attempt to throw some light on the psycho-social consequences of stroke. 50% of stroke patients reported depression and/or anxiety. They lost their former interests, and became resigned and passive. There was little connection between psychic well-being and physical function (except in the case of speech difficulties). The relatives of stroke patients felt frustrated over the patients' attitudes, and the lack of help and support from health personnel.
