Introduction
| Last updated: 04.04.06 |
This booklet provides information on mental health for people with HIV. Problems with mental health can affect anybody, but it seems that HIV-positive people are more likely to experience a range of mental health problems. Treatment for depression and many other mental health problems work well in HIV-positive people.
A summary is provided on page 20 and a glossary on page 21.
