Abstract. Psycho-emotional disorders such as depression and anxiety disorders are important modifiable risk factors for the development and complications of many chronic non-communicable diseases. A special feature of such comorbidity is the significant negative impact of psychoemotional disorders at the motivation and adherence of patients to a healthy lifestyle and various variants of therapy. The actuality of screening and correction of psycho-emotional disorders in the practice of general practitioners is based, on the one hand, due to their high incidence in patients with chronic non-communicable diseases, deterioration of life quality and an increase in adverse outcomes, and, on the other hand, due to insufficient awareness of the possibilities of correcting the psycho-emotional state of patients with comorbidity. Therapy for psychoemotional disorders includes both drug and non-drug methods, however, the efficacy of such treatment in relation to the clinical course and prognosis in patients with different comorbidity options is not the same. Current review presents the most common variants of comorbidity of psycho-emotional disorders and somatic diseases in therapeutic practice.
