Results: Depressive disorders were diagnosed in 84 (78.5%) patients, including: a major depressive episode in 31 (29%), dysthymia in 30 (28%), and an episode of depression with melancholic features in 23 (21.5%). Only 23 (21.5%) patients met no criteria for a mental disorder on the M.I.N.I. There were statistically significant differences among mean BDI scores in the following groups: depression with melancholic features (M=20.9, SD=9), a major depressive episode (M=18.08, SD=8), dysthymia (M=13.75, SD=6), and no depressive disorder (M=3.8, SD=3). There were statistically significant moderate correlations between the intensity of depressive symptoms and acceptance of illness (r=0.5; p<0.001).
