The current study aimed to determine the effect of Cognitive Behaviour
Therapy (CBT) on depression in fibromyalgia patients. Randomized Control
Group Pre-Post-test design was used to study the effect of CBT on depression
in fibromyalgia patients. Sample comprised of (N=120) female patients ranging
in age between 25 to 50 years diagnosed with fibromyalgia were selected from
three hospitals in Peshawar. The Siddiqui Shah Depression Scale (SSDS) was
used on all the patients (N=120) to measure depression among the patients
suffering from fibromyalgia. Both experimental (n=60) and control groups
(n=60) were prescribed medications but CBT sessions were received by
experimental group only. Results showed that fibromyalgia patients in
experimental group obtained low scores (61.9±16.16) on SSDS after completion
of the CBT sessions compared to control group (81.6±10.60). Findings
concluded that CBT is an effective intervention for fibromyalgia patients in
terms of reducing depression and coping with the disorder.
