Cardiologists and general physicians focus on immediate and lifelong medical treatment in patients with any cardiac ailment. During the course of treatment, the patient's mind undergoes physical and mental turmoil wherein the brain starts infusing with soaring levels of anxiety, fear and depression. These factors start impacting the patients concerned with mental, emotional, social, physical, financial, sexual and occupational domains of life. So, while the patient receives medical treatment, a well-balanced psychological setup should be considered to keep levels of anxiety, fear and depression at the minimum levels which will in turn fasten the impact of all modes of treatment. The treatment is not accomplished until the psychological, behavioural and personality components are all addressed. This achievable goal will enable the patients to cope with various issues in life with a strong mental and physical attitude.
