Since preventing adverse psychological effects of surgical stomas is important in planning nursing care programs, exploring the experiences of these patients seems necessary. Method and Materials: This was a phenomenological qualitative study. A purposeful sample of seventeen hospitalized patients was selected through convenient sampling. They had undergone colostomy surgery in hospitals affiliated to Isfahan Medical University. Data was gathered by means of in-depth semi-structured face-to-face interviews. Data analysis was conducted using the phenomenological analytic method defined by Colaizzi. Findings: Seven main themes were obtained related to psychological experiences including depression, feelings of being a burden on family, feelings of worthlessness, distrust, dishonor, non-acceptance and dependency. Conclusion: Based on our findings, psychosocial problems were of the most important experiences mentioned by patients. This finding is congruent with previous similar studies. In a holistic approach, nurses as essential members of health care system should consider patient's psychosocial needs in their care planning.
