The Hamilton depression scale and state anxiety scale were used. Results: A total of 86 patients admitted to clinic, but 8 patients were out and study was completed with 80 patients. Seventy-seven patients were female (96.3%), 3 were male (3.7%). All but one of patients had generalized pain complaints, 63% had regular analgesics (78.7%). Fourteen patients had antidepressant use. Anxiety score was measured 50.07±10.19 in patients using antidepressants, 52.79±12.1 in not taking. The anxiety score was measured 55.8±12.7 in patients using analgesics, 51.35±11.4 in patients without analgesics. The highest anxiety scores were observed in 60-69 age. The severity of common pain increased with anxiety scores. There was no depression was observed in 42 patients (42.5%).
