Aim. The aim of this research is to investigate the severity and distinctive clinical features of anxiety and depressive disorders among people living with HIV, emphasizing potential sex-related variations.Methods. The study involved HIV-positive patients assessed using three validated psychometric instruments: the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (ZSDS). Correlation analysis was performed separately for men and women to identify interrelations between anxiety and depressive symptoms and to determine gender-specific clinical patterns.Results. Women demonstrated a stronger positive correlation between anxiety and depression (HADS: r = 0.82, p < 0.01; ZSDS: r = 0.78, p < 0.01), indicating a close interconnection between emotional and somatic components of psychological distress. Men showed a moderate correlation (HADS: r = 0.68, p < 0.01; ZSDS: r = 0.62, p < 0.01), reflecting the predominance of functional disturbances such as fatigue, irritability, and decreased motivation. Women more frequently exhibited emotional instability and somatic complaints, whereas men were prone to reduced activity and social withdrawal.Conclusion. The findings highlight the importance of gender-sensitive assessment and early psychological intervention for people living with HIV. Individualized and comprehensive approaches can help improve emotional regulation, therapy adherence, and overall mental well-being.
