HIV as a chronic illness is manageable but not curable. Psychiatric disorders not only act as risk factors for HIV infection but also result from the diagnosis of HIV infection. The psychiatric disorders range from anxiety, depression to neurocognitive disorders. The diagnosis also means psychological and emotional effects on the patients and the caregivers. This requires that biopsychosocial perspective be employed in managing such patients for better treatment adherence and increased quality of life. There are various psychological interventions available like cognitive behavior therapy, group therapy, mindfulness based therapy etc. Despite wide prevalence of such problems present in India, very few clinicians are aware of these psychological interventions and make them available to the patients.

BackgroundInfection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is associated with substantial psychiatric morbidity. This paper summarises the main forms of psychological intervention currently used, and reviews research evidence for their efficacy.MethodPublications on the mental health aspects of HIV infection and psychological interventions were identified through the main HIV journals and general psychiatric and psychological periodicals, with the assistance ofAIDS Abstracts.ResultsPublications concerned psychological interventions at the time of HIV testing, interventions for infected people at different stages of disease, and risk-reduction interventions. While many publications were identified describing uncontrolled investigations, only a few studies had involved systematic evaluative research.ConclusionsThere is a need for systematic evaluation of psychological interventions for HIV infection, in terms of both efficacy and cost.
