Abstract

Palliative care and the philosophy of psychiatry converge at a profound juncture, addressing the mental and existential dimensions of end-of-life experiences. This article explores how psychiatric principles—rooted in understanding consciousness, identity, and suffering—enhance palliative care for patients facing terminal illness. By examining the interplay of mind and mortality, it highlights strategies that integrate psychological support, philosophical inquiry, and symptom management. Evidence suggests this intersection fosters resilience, meaningmaking, and dignity in dying. The findings advocate for a holistic approach, blending empirical psychiatry with philosophical reflection, to enrich end-of-life care.
