Currently, medication and psychological therapy are the main methods. However, the current treatment methods have become increasingly ineffective in the long term. Therefore, research has applied the aesthetic landscape design in forest parks to the rehabilitation of patients with mood disorders, in order to alleviate their psychological problems.

The subjects and methods of the study were 100 patients with mood disorders who were treated in a certain hospital from 2021 to 2022. They were divided into an observation group (A) and a control group (B) based on their admission time. The observation group used aesthetic landscape design from forest parks for treatment, while the control group used traditional treatment methods. After the experiment, SPSS20.0 software was used for data analysis.

Before intervention, the self-efficacy score of Group A was 23.81 ± 3.10 points, while that of Group B was 23.95 ± 3.17 points; After intervention, the score of Group A reached 31.74 ± 3.91 points, and after intervention, it was 28.12 ± 3.55 points. From the sleep status, the score of Group A after intervention was 24.39 ± 3.17 points, which was higher than Group B’s 22.04 ± 2.86 points.
