Obesity and Psychiatric Disorders

Numerous studies have shown that patients with mental illness are more likely to experience obesity compared to the general population. Mental illness can elevate the risk of obesity, while obesity, in turn, may raise the likelihood of developing a psychiatric disorder. The connection between obesity and psychiatric conditions is influenced by factors such as poor self-image, biological disruptions caused by obesity, physical inactivity, and the social stigma associated with being overweight. Epidemiological research supports positive associations between obesity and mood disorders.
