The aim of the comparative analytical study was to investigate indicators of the depressed patients’ relatives’ burden, its correlation with different patients’ and relatives’ factors, comparison the obtained values with data of schizophrenic patients’ caregivers. Relatives of depressive patients (22) and schizophrenic patients (70) were examined. The caregiver burden questionnaire (ZBI) was used. The results showed: predominance of subjective parameters in structure of depressed patients’ relatives’ burden; a lower level of depressed patients’ caregivers burden in comparison with schizophrenic patients’ caregivers (p≤0.05); the correlations between depressed patients’ relatives’ burden and hospitalizations’ number. Thus, relatives of patients, regardless of nosology, are vulnerable and need support from psychiatric health professionals.
