description The relationship between social support, stressful life events and psychosocial dysfunction was studied in 197 neurotic patients comprising 65 patients of Generalized Anxiety Disorder, 81 of Dysthymia and 51 of Dissoiative (conversion) Disorders.

Significant correlations between social support and life events and social support and dysfunction were also obtained and it was observed that lack of social support is negatively correlated with greater life stresses and dysfuction.
