Abstract

Background: Parkinson's disease is distinguished by ailments such as shaking hands,   difficulties with walking, instability, depressive disorders, anxiety, and diarrhea. PD  Patients belonging to the middle class and below exhibited the greatest prevalence of  Parkinson's disease, accounting for 40% of the cases. It is likely to be more common  among those in the middle socioeconomic class.  Aim: The objective is to gather the existing empirical data regarding the influence on   mental wellness in older adults afflicted by Parkinson's disease.  Methods and Materials: Data was collected from additional resources such as search engines and databases, specifically Scopus, PubMed Central, Google Scholar, ProQuest,  and JSTOR were consulted.  Results and   Conclusions: Furthermore, the complexity and severe negative  consequences may differ, although the impacted persons are able to adapt to both the  physical and non-physical symptoms. In order to improve the health and well-being  of senior individuals affected by Parkinson's disease, it is important for mental health   specialists, neurologists, healthcare workers, caregivers, and family members to  collaborate as a group.
