Illness is the subjective experience of feeling unwell, characterized by a perceived decrease in physical, emotional, social, or spiritual functioning compared to one's normal state. It is distinct from disease, which is a medically diagnosed condition. Illness is influenced by personal, cultural, and social factors and affects how individuals cope and seek care. Nursing addresses illness by providing supportive, empathetic care that alleviates suffering and restores function.
