Disease acceptance plays great importance in process of accommodation for chronic disease. The study was aimed at the evaluation of the effect of acceptance of addiction from alcohol as a disease on long-term abstinence among male alcoholics attending in outpatient clinics. The attempt of finding personal resources which are connected with disease acceptance was taken too. 132 Jan Chodkiewicz The patients were evaluated twice: at the beginning (N= 194) and the end of therapy (N = 98). According to the results of a questionnaire two subgroups on the grounds of the duration of their abstinence after alcohol treatment were distinguished. The first subgroup of 52 patients (A) abstained for over 12 months, while the other (B) included 28 patients who had relapses in that period. On the beginning of the therapy the disease acceptance differentiate patients from these two groups. A-group patients has statistical higher level of disease acceptance than B-group patients. This difference is invariable despite of growth of disease acceptance in both groups in the course of treatment. Most helpful for disease acceptance happen the personal resources like: preference of active ways of coping with stress, a sense of self-worth and efficacy, satisfaction with life, optimism and low level of fear.

Introduction: Diabetes is a disease whose course is strongly determined by self-monitoring and self-care. Ensuring metabolic control of diabetes is not only important for the current state of health, it also allows to maintain the body in the best condition despite the existing chronic disease. Purpose: To assess the relationship between sociodemographic factors and depression symptoms and the level of disease acceptance in diabetes. Materials and methods: The study used a diagnostic survey method with a questionnaire, the Beck Depression Inventory, and the Acceptance of Illness Scale. The study group consisted of 43 women (51%) and 41 men (49%). A total of 67% of respondents had diagnosed type 2 diabetes, 24% type 1 diabetes, and 6% LADA. Average disease duration was 15 years. Results: In the studied group, 15% of patients had diagnosed symptoms of depression; while according to the Beck Depression Inventory, depressive episodes occurred more often in mild (30%) and moderate (23%) severity. They were observed more often in people over 50 years old. Depression symptoms were significantly more common in the group of overweight and obese people (p=0.022, r(X,Y)=0.2490). Conclusions: The problem of depression increases with disease duration. People diagnosed with type 2 diabetes have lower levels of disease acceptance. Disease acceptance is a factor that eliminates the occurrence of depressive disorders of varying severity.
