In addition to bowel symptoms, patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) also experience depression and anxiety more frequently than healthy individuals and than individuals with chronic conditions without IBD. Depression and anxiety as comorbidities in IBD may be widespread in adolescents and young adults (1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
Depression and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) may influence each other. There is evidence that depression may precede the diagnosis of Crohn's disease (CD) and may contribute to disease recurrence (6, 7).
