    Throughout the course of the illness, older people experience a multitude of emotional responses, often manifesting as anxiety and/or depression. A predominant feeling among them is fear of what awaits them: the uncertainty, the potential for pain and the risk of complications that could deteriorate their physical well-being, strip them of their independence or even cause death. In this study we seek to examine the correlation between anxiety and depression among older adults with diabetes mellitus and high blood pressure who attend the outpatient clinic of a Hospital in Metropolitan Lima, 2023. The research will use a quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional approach. Sectional correlational methodology. The complete sample will be made up of 88 older adults. To evaluate our objectives, we will use the Beck Anxiety Scale (BAI) to measure the first variable and the Yesavage Geriatric Depression Scale to measure the second variable. Analysis of the results will involve the use of Spearman's Rho parametric correlation test.
