In the study area, about two out of every seven people living with HIV/AIDS experienced anxiety symptoms. Factors such as being aged 25 to 40 years, having seen a counselor, HIV disclosure, alcohol use disorders, and perceived high stigma were significantly associated with anxiety in this population. Based on these findings, timely intervention is recommended to enhance the overall well-being and quality of life for people living with HIV (PLWH), leading to better health outcomes, reducing the burden of mental health issues, and supporting more holistic, patient-centered care
