Post-stroke depression and changes in behavior and personality
Journal Title: Archives of Depression and Anxiety - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Disorders now well identified and recognized by caregivers are observed post stroke especially fatigue and depression. The patient and especially his family must be informed, to reduce the destabilizing effect of finding a loved one different from that known before the stroke, especially when returning home. The disorders can change over time or be improved by medication. Sometimes, they will permanently alter the character or behavior of the person, psychological help to the patient and his relatives is often useful.
