With the development of society, the incidence rate of depression is also gradually increasing, however, the pathogenesis of the disease has not yet been clear.Subjects and MethodsTo analyze the impact of integrating visual communication technology from the perspective of film communication on the mental health of depression patients, 100 depression patients were selected and randomly divided into two groups: the research group and the control group, with 50 patients in each group. Both groups used medication for basic treatment. In addition, patients in the control group underwent regular movie viewing twice a week. The patients in the research group underwent movie viewing that incorporates visual communication technology twice a week. The treatment period for both groups of patients was 4 weeks. The analysis tools used in the study include the Hamilton Depression Scale, Hamilton Anxiety Scale, Comprehensive Quality of Life Assessment Scale, and SPSS23.0.Results The results showed that after treatment, the depression and anxiety scores of the study group patients showed a significant decrease (P<0.05), and there was a significant difference compared to the pre-treatment scores. In addition, the physical health, mental health, and social function scores of the study group patients showed a significant increase (P<0.05), and there was a significant difference compared to the pre-treatment scores.ConclusionsThe integration of visual communication technology from the perspective of film communication is beneficial for the mental health of patients with depression.
