Natural disasters pose unique challenges to individuals living with HIV/AIDS, impacting their mental health and psychosocial well-being. This review explores the complex interplay between natural disasters and the mental health implications for HIV patients. Disruptions in healthcare infrastructure, medication access, and treatment continuity during disasters significantly affect disease management, leading to heightened stress, anxiety, and trauma among this vulnerable population. Social support networks, crucial for those with HIV, often suffer severe setbacks, exacerbating mental health issues. The aftermath of disasters may induce long-term psychological effects, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression. Understanding these multifaceted impacts is critical in developing tailored interventions and support systems to mitigate the mental health consequences experienced by individuals living with HIV in the wake of natural disasters. Further research and targeted interventions are essential to address the specific needs of this population and promote resilience in the face of such calamities.
