Exploring the Mediating Role of Insomnia in the Relationship Between Fibromyalgia, Depression, and Anxiety in Lebanese Adults
This study focused on the mediating role of insomnia between fibromyalgia and development of depression and anxiety on a sample of 641 Lebanese individual. With the use of specific scales and guidelines of the American College of Rheumatology, we were able to clearly elucidate the relationship between the selected variables. These findings underscore the importance of addressing issues such as insomnia in chronic pain as well as the associated comorbidities which have been proven to play an important role in the course of the disease. Future research should further explore targeted interventions that could enhance overall wellbeing in individuals with FM, considering the multiple factors influencing one's condition.
