Depressive disorders are serious illnesses that can negatively affect an individual's quality of life. A study found that 15-25% of cancer patients also suffer from depression. Compared to the general population, this is more than double. According to cancer registry data, the number of new cancer cases in India is estimated to be about 800,000 each year, which is affected by mental health and social well-being. In any given time, there are likely to be three times the number of cases as there are at any given time. For men, tobacco-related cancer accounts for 35 to 50% of all cancers, and for women, it accounts for about 17%. The main objective of the study was to focus on the mood related, physical, behavioural and cognitive symptoms of depression in cancer survivors and to help the patients coping-up with the depression.
