Abstract

Ovarian cancer is a malignant tumor originating from the ovaries, affecting various age groups, with multiple histological types. Depression is a common mental disorder characterized by emotional and physical symptoms. Cancer diagnosis and treatment are widely recognized as major psychological stressors that can precipitate or exacerbate mental health disturbances, particularly depressive and anxiety disorders, due to the profound emotional, social, and physiological challenges experienced by patients. This case report highlights the relationship between ovarian cancer and depressive symptoms. This case report examines the relationship between ovarian cancer and depressive symptoms, with a focus on the psychological and inflammatory pathways influencing mental health. A 44-year-old woman presented with a loss of interest in activities, beginning three weeks after her ovarian cancer diagnosis. Research indicates that factors such as advanced cancer stage, poor physical functioning, and the absence or discontinuation of chemotherapy due to disease progression or treatment intolerance may increase the susceptibility to mental health disorders among ovarian cancer patients. Cancer patients, including those diagnosed with ovarian cancer, experience heightened stress and depression compared to those with non-neoplastic diseases. Depression can arise due to both psychological stress and inflammatory processes triggered by cancer treatments.

Abstract

Depression is a psychological condition characterized by persistent sadness, hopelessness, and loss of interest that affects emotional, cognitive, and behavioral functioning. Spirituality is believed to play a significant role in reducing depressive symptoms by fostering inner harmony, emotional resilience, and a sense of meaning in life. This case report explores the relationship between spirituality and depression in a 44-year-old woman diagnosed with major depressive disorder with psychotic features. The patient continues to experience negative emotions such as pessimism, lack of self-confidence, continuous crying, and feelings of inferiority that began after being dismissed from her job, a traumatic event that deeply affected her psychological state. She also experienced a decline in spiritual beliefs and practices, which was attributed to her father’s overly strict and inconsistent religious upbringing. This case highlights the close relationship between spirituality and mental health, demonstrating that spiritual well-being can serve as a protective factor against depression by enhancing emotional stability, personal resilience, and positive psychological adjustment. The integration of spiritual care into mental health interventions is therefore essential, as it may improve recovery outcomes and enhance the overall quality of life for individuals experiencing depression.
