Özet

Objectives: It has been found that pain response is higher in patients with depression and anxiety and also found higher in the patients with psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES). However, these studies are limited in number and they are mainly focused on the chronic pain perception. We aimed to investigate anxiety and depression levels and the perception of acute pain along with childhood traumas among the patients with PNES.
