Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS) [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
    epression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS) is a self-report questionnaire that is used to assess the severity of depression, anxiety, and stress. The DASS consists of 42 items that are scored on a scale of 0 to 3, with 0 indicating "not at all" and 3 indicating "severely." The total score for the DASS is the sum of the scores for the 42 items. A higher score indicates more severe symptoms of depression, anxiety, or stress.

  2. International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
    International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) is a self-report questionnaire that is used to assess physical activity levels. The IPAQ consists of 7 questions that ask about the frequency, duration, and intensity of physical activity. The IPAQ can be used to assess physical activity levels in people of all ages and activity levels.

  3. Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ) [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
    is a self-report questionnaire that is used to measure disability in patients with fibromyalgia. The FIQ consists of 21 items that ask about the impact of fibromyalgia on physical function, social function, and role function. The FIQ can be used to assess the severity of fibromyalgia and to monitor the effectiveness of treatment.
