Chronic airways diseases involve alterations in the person's social roles, relationships and self-perception so demands continual psychological adjustment .

Also Kunik studied patients with chronic breathing disorders for depression and anxiety and found that 65% of patients were positive for depression and anxiety.

Much of the evidence explored so far relates to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. While other chronic lung diseases have received less attention In addition to, several studies have been found relationship between asthma and psychological disturbance .One review of literature describes an increased prevalence of psychological co-morbidity in asthmatic adults and another research suggests that anxiety and depression are more common in patients with moderate to severe asthma than in the general population Gift. found significantly greater self-reported depression scores among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease receiving prednisone compared to patients not receiving any steroids.

Interestingly, the psychiatric sequel of steroid treatment are often sudden in onset and appear to generally occur within 2 weeks after steroid introduction
