Pełny tekst źródłaMajor findings. epidemiological data vary, but all point to a widespread problem. The diversity of meaning and of etiological theories appears to be linked to the heterogeneity of this population. An integrated treatment strategy is the current modality of choice, despite outcomes that are only mildly encouraging; finally, there is consensus among consumers that recovery from a disease is possible even in the absence of a complete cure.
Research limitations and knowledge gaps are to be expected in a new field of study. Additional research is necessary to determine the extent and causes of these comorbidities. Social workers must become knowledgeable in this field and remain abreast of new developments in order to engage in evidenced-based practice. Greater education about comorbidities is necessary, as is an overarching policy response from all levels of government. The principal contribution of this master's thesis to the discipline of social work is to provide a general synthesis of knowledge in a domain that is highly medicalized in the literature.

Pełny tekst źródłaA cross-sectional population-based study was conducted to identify the prevalence of common mental disorders (CMD) and verify its association with chronic illnesses and the declared number of chronic conditions. The Self-Report Questionnaire (SRQ-20) was applied in a multi-stage random sample of 1276 adults aged 40 and older. Socio-demographic, behavioral and health-related variables were also obtained with a structured questionnaire. The CMD prevalence was 30.2%. Lower educational level and social class and the group 46- 55 years old were associated with psychiatric morbidity. Each chronic illness was associated with CMD. However, a stronger association was found between CMD and the declared number of chronic conditions, with a prevalence ratio of 4.67 (IC95%: 3.19 6.83) for five or more declared conditions. The present work emphasizes the importance of CMD in chronically ill patients, particularly when a greater number of chronic conditions is declared.
Estudo transversal de base populacional foi conduzido tendo como objetivos avaliar a prevalência dos transtornos mentais comuns (TMC) e verificar sua associação com determinadas enfermidades crônicas e com o número de doenças crônicas relatadas pelo indivíduo. Para a avaliação de TMC, o Self-Report Questionnaire (SRQ-20) foi aplicado em 1276 adultos com 40 anos ou mais, identificados por meio de amostragem aleatória em múltiplos estágios. O ponto de corte utilizado foi de 6 ou mais pontos para homens e 8 ou mais pontos para as mulheres. Variáveis sócio-demográficas, comportamentais e relacionadas à saúde foram obtidas por meio de um questionário estruturado. Os TMC apresentaram uma prevalência de 30,2%, estando associados à baixa escolaridade e classe social, e à faixa etária de 46 a 65 anos. Todas as doenças crônicas pesquisadas mostraram-se associadas aos TMC, mesmo após ajuste para as demais variáveis. Entretanto, o número de enfermidades apresentadas pelo indivíduo teve maior importância do que cada uma delas individualmente, com uma razão de prevalência (RP) de 4,67 com intervalo de confiança de 95% (IC95%) de 3,19 6,83 para cinco ou mais doenças relatadas. O presente estudo realça a importância de se atentar para os transtornos mentais em indivíduos com enfermidades crônicas, principalmente naqueles que se apresentam com um grande número de doenças.

Pełny tekst źródłaIntroduction: It is estimated that 25 percent of youth between the ages 16-29 and 20 percent of the population between the ages 30-44 in Sweden suffer from some sort of mental illness (Folkhälsomyndigheten, 2019d). The covid-19 pandemic is the biggest health crisis of our time and many of the well known risk factors in mental illness, such as stress, loneliness and anxiety could be on the rise, according to the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) (u.å.b). Aim: The purpose of the study is to collect information around the connection of the covid-19 pandemic and mental illness in the age span 18-44 in Sweden. Methods: A quantitative cross-sectional study that has collected data through an online survey where a convenience sample has been used. The survey was answered by 157 respondents of both sexes between the ages 18-44 and the result was analyzed with the help of descriptive analysis, cross tables and chi-square tests. Results: The result shows that there has been an increase of 7,1 percent amongst respondents that experience mental problems daily/a few times a week before the pandemic (19,7 percent) compared to the time during the pandemic (26,8 percent). Furthermore, 52,2 percent state that their mental well-being has worsened as a result of the pandemic. Conclusion: This study shows that the mental well-being of the respondents may have been worsened as a result of the covid-19 pandemic. The result of the study is not generalizable amongst the population of Sweden in the age span 18 to 44, as a convenience sample has been used. Further studies in the field that include more respondents may be necessary in the planning of future work of improving the mental health of those age group during and after the pandemic.

Pełny tekst źródłaBackground: Honor related violence and oppression is a significant societal subject in the field of public health sciences resulting in negative consequences for children and adolescences. One form of honor oppression is children and adolescences unable to choose their future partner. This can derive claim of virginity and control from the family with the aim to marry a partner who can contribute to increased socioeconomic status. The emphasized control results in multiple negative health-consequences for the individual. Previous research implies that honor related violence and oppression can be related to child abuse and mental illness among children and adolescences. Exposure to violence and oppression from home can also be related to exposure for bullying where the individual because of her home conditions may be perceived as different from her school-peers. Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate the correlation between honor oppression and poly-victimization, mental illness and bullying among Swedish adolescences. Method: The study is based on cross-sectional data derived from a national survey about violence against children from year 2016 included 4741 students from year 9 in elementary school and the second year of high-school in total. Cross-sectional and logistical regression analyses where applied to answer the aim of the study with included research questions. Furthermore, multivariate logistical regression analyses adjusted for gender, economy, age, residential-situation and disability were practiced. Results: The results showed that honor oppression had a statistically significant correlation to poly-victimization, mental illness and exposure to bullying. The adjusted analyses presented that honor-oppression increased the probability for poly-victimization (aOR 10.2, CI 5.6 – 18.4), mental illness such as self-harm (aOR 1.9, CI 1.1 – 3.2), suicidal attempt (aOR 2.4, CI 1.3 – 4.7) and exposure to bullying (aOR 2.4, CI 1.5 – 4.1). Conclusions: The results of the study confirmed that honor oppression can increase the possibility for exposure to violence and negative health consequences included lethal outcomes for adolescences. This emphasizes the importance of prevention concerning honor- oppressed children and adolescences where they can get adapted help and support from professional practices in different societal arenas.

Pełny tekst źródłaIntroduction: Globally, it is estimated that one in four families has at least one family member with a mental disorder and relatives are often the primary caregivers. A majority of people with mental illness are or will be parents. Research shows a significant association between parental mental illness and mental illness in children. Purpose: The purpose of this systematic literature review was to identify the risk factors and the protective factors of the health of children living with a mentally ill parent. Method: A literature study involving 15 articles both quantitative and qualitative. Analysis of the articles has been done according to a thematic analysis method. Result: Children of parents with mental illness constitute a high-risk group for developing problems such as behavioural, emotional and psychiatric disorders. There is a strong relation between the parent's mental illness and stigmatization as well as lack of school attendance. Protective factors include social support, knowledge of the parent's illness, having an active coping strategy and a family-focused care that can enhance the family and children's resilience. Discussion: There is a great need of early efforts and interventions to support children. Many times, the focus from health care is only on the mentally ill parent and many children's needs are missed. This study shows that support and information to the children in many cases is not implemented or inadequate.

Pełny tekst źródłaIntroduction: Bipolar disorder is one of many other psychiatric diagnoses which contributes to mental illness. Bipolar disorder is characterized by mania and depressions that can become so severe that hospitalizing might be needed. The care and treatment between health professionals and people with bipolar disorder are therefore particularly important to ensure that people with bipolar disorder receive the care they need. Purpose: The aim of this literature review was to investigate people’s experiences from health professionals for care and treatment of bipolar disorder in both open and closed care. Method: A structured literature study has been used, where qualitative articles have been studied and analyzed. Results: Ten scientific articles were included for analysis and resulted in five different themes as follows: the importance of health professionals listening to people with bipolar disorder, lack of time as an obstacle to care and treatment, the importance of support and understanding from health professionals, the need of information for people with bipolar disorder and the need of person-centered care for people with bipolar disorder. Conclusion: This study brings knowledge in various aspects that are considered important in both care and treatment for people with bipolar disorder. The results of this study can support health professionals care and treatment for people with bipolar disorder.

Pełny tekst źródłaBackground: The district nurse triage daily patients with mental illness in primary care. Mental illness is multifaceted and to some extent taboo in society. This requires that the district nurse has a good knowledge of mental illness and how it can express itself in different patients. The district nurse also needs to take a holistic approach with person-centred care in focus. Aim: The aim was the district nurse experiences with triage of patients with mental illness in primary care. Method: A qualitative research approach based on interviews with eight district nurse/nurse active in primary care. Qualitative content analysis. Result: The result was three categories and ten subcategories. The three categories were: Deficiencies in education, Challenges in triage and Deficiencies in collaboration. The results showed that the district nurse needs to have more knowledge about mental illness and have the conditions required to carry out a good triage, such as support tools and security in dialogue about suicidal thoughts in the patient. The district nurse needs to be aware of somatization and its impact on triage. The collaboration between primary care and the open psychiatric clinic needs to be improved. Conclusion: In order for triage of mental illness to improve, the district nurse needs to receive more training in mental illness. There, both employers and education managers have a responsibility to influence the opportunities for triage of mental illness in primary care. The district nurse also needs support tools to ensure equivalent triage of mental illness in primary care.

Pełny tekst źródłaIdag använder ca 55 % av Sveriges befolkning i åldrarna 12–55 år tjänsten Instagram. De senaste åren har användandet ökat med 12 % varje år. Under år 2016 har den psykiska ohälsan i Sverige ökat kraftigt, särskilt i åldersgruppen 16–29 år. Denna grupp är också stora användare av Instagram. Tidigare studier visar att exponeringen av bilder bidrar till att de exponerade jämför sig med andra, vill förändra sig själva och funderar mer över sitt utseende. Dessa beteenden kan också bidra till diagnoser som depression och ätstörningar och bli en typ av ett självskadebeteende. Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur användandet av Instagram ser ut bland svenska internetanvändare. Ytterligare ett syfte var att undersöka om det finns en association mellan det ökade Instagram-användandet och den psykiska hälsan. Metoden som används var en tvärsnittsstudie med enkäter, med både kvantitativa och kvalitativa frågor. Detta presenterades som beskrivande statistik samt tematisk analys med citat. Urvalet var ett bekvämlighetsurval och snöbollsurval, där enkäterna delades ut via författarens Facebook. Resultatet visade att många använde Instagram flera gånger om dagen och många av dem visade sig vara i riskgruppen för att drabbas av psykisk ohälsa. Många upplevde att bilderna man exponeras för på Instagram bidrar till att man jämför sig själv vilket skapar ett missnöje med den egna kroppen. Det fanns ett samband mellan att använda Instagram flera gånger per dag och att uppleva missnöjdhet, osäkerhet, att inte räcka till, samt att man jämförde sig med andra och tänkte mer på sitt utseende. Slutsatsen blev att det som använder Instagram flera gånger per dag upplever ett minskat psykiskt välbefinnande och är i riskgruppen för att drabbas av psykisk ohälsa. Många användare av Instagram jämförde sig med andra och tänkte mer på sitt utseende när de exponerades för bilder på Instagram.

Pełny tekst źródłaIntroduction: Mental illness in children and adolescents continues to increase and has become a major societal problem. The prevalence and high burden makes mental illness apublic health disease. The covid-19 pandemic has led to deterioration in mental health due to changes in lifestyles due to restrictions to reduce the spread of infection. Consequences of these restrictions can affect individuals for years to come. Aim: The aim of this study was to identify risk factors that have a negative impact on children and adolescent's mental health during the covid-19 pandemics. Methods: This study was a thematic literature study and articles has been selected from the databases Academic Search Premier, CINAHL, Directory of Open Accsess Journals, MEDLINE EBSCO, PubMed och SpringerLink. Conclusion: The covid-19 has had a negative effect on the mental health of children and adolescents and covid-19 restrictions have led to a reduction in the spread of the infection but at the expense of increased mental illness. More studies on the subject are needed to explore the additional consequences

Pełny tekst źródłaPrevious studies have shown that in every drug addicted person’s life there is about five relatives which risks developing co-dependency. Therefore, the riskfactors affect the relative’s mental health and increase the risk of developing other illnesses such as depression, anxiety and emotional issues. The aim of the study was to investigate how co-dependency in close relationships can develop self-destructive behavior and mental illness. With the use of a qualitative method and interviews as a data collecting method, the aim for this study became fulfilled. The study was based on semi-structured interviews, performed by six participants. The results showed similar outcomes for all interviews, such as the prevalence for mental illness, self-destructive behaviour and the importance of introjective identification. These three categories complement each other in the order written. The results indicates that a co-dependent individual could not, without the phenomenon introjective identification and self-destructive behaviour acquire mental illness. However in order to acquire some kind of mental illness the co-dependent person would have to develop self-destructive behaviour, and the results showed that it is not possible without introjective identification in the context of a close relationship. Although, with the use of attachment theory and coping-strategy, the conclusion showed that not every co-dependent developed mental illness. The prevalence of illnesses was affected by the individuals early life attachment-pattern and coping skills. The study led to a conclusion that mental illness is a big issue among co-dependent individuals. Co-dependency is not a determined as a disease, despite the risk of possibly developing mental illness. It is still not a prioritization among public health authorities.

The method that has been used is a qualitative method using semi-structured interviews. The participants in the interviews were young adults with a Somali ethnic background. There were three men and women and their ages vary between 19 to 29 years old. The analysis was done using a qualitative manifest content analysis. The result of the study shows that young adults Somalis’ perception of mental illness looked different and difficult to define. Young adult Somalis also feel that it is not possible to talk openly about mental illness with people in their surroundings, especially with members of the family. Their perception of support and help is that it is avoided, religion plays a major role among it and there is a lack of knowledge regarding where they can seek help and support for mental illness.

Pełny tekst źródłaIntroduction: The mental ill-health of young adults has increased over the past ten years and is one of Sweden's largest public health challenges. Globally, 322 million people are suffering from depression and 264 million are suffering from anxiety disorder. One of the global sustainability goals is that mental health must be considered and promoted with preventive measures. Another step to achieve good and equal health is Vision e-health 2025, in which Sweden is aiming to become a world leader in utilizing the opportunities of digitalisation. Information and communication technology [ICT] and social media increase the possibility of interaction, regardless of time and space. Aim: To describe health-promoting effects that social media and ICT tools can have to alliviate the mental ill-health of young adults. Method: A structured literature study based on 20 scientific original articles obtained from the PubMed and CINAHL databases. The articles have been analyzed with a thematic analysis. Results: Six themes with a promoting effect on mental health were identified and grouped into three categories. The categories were knowledge development, psychological aspects, and useful tools. The themes were personal development and change, increased knowledge and ability, security and anonymity, motivation and engagement, social belonging, and social support, as well as easy accessibility and user-friendliness. Conclusion: The result shows that health-promoting effects are evident in the digital field. The use of technology can contribute to the implementation of digital health promotion efforts aimed at alleviating the mental ill-health of young adults. However, research in the field is limited and more studies are needed to achieve the full effect of the opportunities of digitisation.

Pełny tekst źródłaThe study’s background was based on the association between those who mainly used social media, young women between the ages of 16 and 25, were also the group that dominated in mental illness. Current research on why young women suffers from mental illness more than others is inadequate. Although, it is well-known that environments that young people integrates with growing up plays a significant role in youths mental health. Despite that young women spend at least 3 hours there daily, social media is not included as such environment. This motivated the study's purpose, to investigate young women's experiences about social media as an emerging environment in relation to their identity and health. Qualitative methodology enabled the collection of material through semistructured interviews in focus groups. The study found that young women perceive social media as an environment as realistic as any other environments they interact with growing up. The results of the study also describe the experiences of mental illness associated with social media, but that a high self-esteem serves as a protective factor. The conclusion explains whether there are determinants of health on social media, these should be considered as impactable provided they are discovered and documented. Therefore, future health work is proposed focusing on safe navigation for young people on social media. The conclusion demonstrates the importance of public health science research continuing in line with current social development, which in the study is understood to be digitized, in order not to lose valuable knowledge about what leads or interrupts courses against mental illness.

Pełny tekst źródłaIntroduction: The development of mental illness among children and adolescents is a serious public health problem today. Evidence shows that spiritual health is important for mental health and well-being. Snacka om livet (SOL) is a project designed to promote the existential health of children and adolescents. Continued work on the project depends on creating the conditions for the area’s implementation and on policymakers prioritizing the area. Purpose: To investigate the experience of existential health within Skåne's municipal and regional cross-sectoral public health work in the promotion of children and young people's mental health. Methods: The study had a qualitative approach with ten participants with senior positions within the municipality and region. The informants were selected based on a strategic selection. The interviews were conducted with a semi-structured method and with thorough ethical considerations. The empirics were analyzed based on qualitative content analysis. Results: The results showed that the area is new, important and of current interest in relation to mental illness among children and adolescents. The concept was to some extent perceived as complex and taboo but was also described as having great benefits for individuals and society. Spiritual health was perceived to strengthen and equip children and adolescents. A prerequisite for the area’s implementation was meant, among other things, to include the concept in public health work. Conclusion: The study has been able to contribute additional evidence and knowledge to this relatively new and unexplored area. Spiritual health is a resource in both prevention and promotion of public health work. The study has identified that health literacy can be an important tool for the area's integration into public health. The concept needs to be clarified, made aware and given space in the public health perspective.

Pełny tekst źródłaIntroduction: In recent years, the use of social media has increased significantly in young people. 92 percent of all 13 to 16-year-olds today use social media where the most common media are Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat. Something else that increases at the same rate as social media is mental illness in young people. Aim: The purpose of this literature study is to investigate whether adolescents and young adults (age 13-24) use of social media has any effects on their mental health and well-being. Method: The method is a literature study in which 21 peer reviewed articles have been analyzed to answer the questions. Result: Social media proved to have both a negative and a positive effect on young people. Psychological consequences could be demonstrated and explained by how social media are used, how often they are used and different mediating variables. The strongest mediation was shown to be FoMO, the fear of missing something out if not constantly checking through their social media. Social media was also shown to be a health-promoting tool if used in moderation, as the individual then develops his or her communication skills and strengthens the social interaction and support. Conclusion: Social media have both positive and negative effects on mental health. However, the conclusion in this literature study is that the negative effects outdo the positive effects, and social media should therefore be used with more caution and reflection.
