Bakgrund Transsexualism innebär att en persons upplevda könstillhörighet inte stämmer överens med det kön denne blivit tilldelad vid födelsen. Att genomgå könskorrigerande behandlingar kan förbättra hur personen mår i den egna kroppen. Studier som rör hälso- och sjukvården visar att transsexuella personer upplever att de bemöts annorlunda och bristen på kunskap om transsexualism lyfts som ett av de grundläggande problemen. Syfte Syftet var att beskriva hur bemötandet i det dagliga livet påverkar transsexuella personer. Metod Kvalitativ intervjumetod användes för att kunna beskriva informanternas upplevelser. Sju transsexuella personer intervjuades. Intervjuerna transkriberades samt analyserades enligt metoden kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat Bristen på kunskap om transsexualism går som en röd tråd genom fynden. Frågan om en person skall vara öppen om sin bakgrund eller inte är ständigt närvarande, personerna är oroliga för att bli ifrågasatta eller behandlade annorlunda. När de kommer ut som transsexuella möts de av nyfikenhet som kan vara både uppskattad och besvärande. Hälsooch sjukvården är oerfaren och saknar kunskap men det går att ge ett bra bemötande ändå. Slutsats Transsexuella personer blir i regel väl bemötta, men bristen på kunskap i omgivningen upplevs som ett problem. Information om vad transsexualism är bör spridas samt att tidig diagnos och behandlingsstart är väsentlig.

Bakgrund: Psykisk hälsa är ett tillstånd av välbefinnande där individen kan klara av vanliga påfrestningar, kan arbeta produktivt och bidra till samhället. Inom elitidrotten ställs det höga krav på individen vilket genererar stora fysiska och psykiska påfrestningar för individen. Det gör elitidrottare till en utsatt grupp för psykisk ohälsa och risktagande beteenden. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva erfarenheter av psykisk ohälsa hos personer som utövar elitidrott. Metod: En litteraturöversikt har genomförts. Artiklarna hämtades från Cinahl och PsycInfo. Litteraturöversikten är baserad på kvalitativa och kvantitativa artiklar. Både systematiska och osystematiska sökningar genomfördes vilket resulterade i tolv artiklar. Resultat: Erfarenheterna kring psykisk ohälsa hos elitidrottarna sammanfattades i tre teman: att leva upp till egna och andras förväntningar, bristande kunskap och stöd samt konsekvenser av psykisk ohälsa. Temat egna och andras förväntningar består av två subteman: att förändra sin identitet och att utsättas för stigmatisering. Konklusion: Den psykiska ohälsan inom elitidrotten ökar liksom den gör hos allmänheten i övrigt. Stigmatiseringen och bristen på kunskap kring psykisk ohälsa inom elitidrotten har visat sig vara stor. Det bör därför läggas mer resurser på utveckling och förbättring genom utbildning för att kunna ge bättre stöd till personer som drabbas av psykisk ohälsa inom elitidrotten. / Background: Mental health is a state of well-being where the individual can cope with common stress, be able to work productively and to contribute to society. In the elite sport, there are high demands on the individual, which generates a great physical and mental stress in the individual. It makes elite athletes a vulnerable group for mental ill health and risk-taking behaviors. Aim: The aim was to describe experiences of mental illness among people practicing elite sports. Method: A literature review was conducted. The articles were retrieved from the databases Cinahl and PsycInfo. The literature review was based on qualitative and quantitative articles. Both systematic and unsystematic searches were conducted, resulting in twelve articles. Results: The experiences of mental illness among the elite athletes were summarized in three themes: Living up to one's own and others' expectations, lack of knowledge and support, and consequences of mental illness. The theme, Living up to one's own and others' expectations consists of two sub-themes: to change ones identity and to be subjected to stigmatization. Conclusion: The mental illness in the elite sport increases as well as it does within the general population. The stigmatization as well as the lack of knowledge about mental illness within the elite sport have proved to be great. Therefore, it should be added more resources on education in order to be able to provide better support to people who suffer from mental illness in elite sports.
