The quality of life of caregivers of patients with severe mental illness was found to be low. Living in a rural area, being illiterate, having chronic medical illnesses, having probable cases of anxiety and depression, and being stigmatized were negatively associated with the overall quality of life. The findings indicate the necessity for health professionals, the government, and other concerned bodies to pay more attention to caregivers' quality of life
