Psychospołeczne uwarunkowania percepcji problemów życiowych osób zakażonych wirusem HIV i chorych na AIDS

Abstract

AIDS does not only bring somatic changes in one's organism but problems connected with it can also be viewed from psychological and social perspective. The problems can be connected with family, personality, social attitude or changes in lifestyle. Whether they appear and whether people suffering from AIDS perceive them as problems depends mostly on the support and help they receive from the surrounding society. As well as emotional support they need help with their everyday life and should be informed about their situation.
