How does lifestyle affect depression and anxiety in Parkinson's?

Many people with Parkinson’s experience depression and anxiety.  A researcher wants to find out how lifestyle factors like diet, sleep, exercise and stress affect these symptoms. And whether these factors can help predict who depression and anxiety will affect. 

Who

98 people with Parkinson’s who:

• Are 40 or older

• And living in the community (not in full time residential care)

What

Completing an online survey:

• This will take up to 40 minutes to complete

• It will ask questions about lifestyle, mood, and sleep habits

• People who complete the survey will be entered into a prize draw for 1 of 2 £25 vouchers

All responses are confidential.
