| Objectives: This study was conducted to evaluate the stress level and coping methods of patients with a chronic itching problem.Methods: The research was carried out with patients who presented at the dermatology outpatient clinics of Yozgat Bozok University Research and Application Hospital, Yozgat State Hospital, and Sorgun State Hospital with a chronic itching complaint.
