How does arthritis affect your mental health?

Thank you for your interest in this survey.

This research is being conducted to gain an understanding of how arthritis impacts the mental health and well-being of people in Ireland. We also want to investigate what supports are available in the health service for you to discuss these issues and your experiences of doing so.

This is a voluntary survey. You can leave the questionnaire at any point.

All data are being collected anonymously. You will not be asked for any personal information that would identify you. The data will be stored securely.

If you would like to speak with someone about any of the issues raised in this research, you can access help and support via our helpline on 0818 252 846. Information about arthritis is available on our website, www.arthritisireland.ie.

This research is supported by a grant from Novartis, as part of an awareness campaign about mental health and arthritis. Novartis have not had any input into the development of this survey.
