Strokes or disorders of the neurovascular system continue to increase, leading to increased disability and death rates. This research aims to determine the level of depression, anxiety, and stress of stroke patients at the Lhokseumawe Hospital. A cross-sectional design with a total sample of 113 respondents was used. Furthermore, to measure the level of depression, anxiety, and stress, the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21) questionnaire consisting of 21 questions with a Likert scale of 0-3 was used. The results showed that the majority of respondents experienced mild depression (34.5%), moderate anxiety (55.8%), and normal stress levels (33.6%). Therefore, health services should investigate patients' mental health with chronic diseases such as stroke to avoid persistent complications.
