<p><strong>Bakgrund:</strong> Postpartum depressioner (PPD), en förlossningsdepression, drabbar kvinnor i hela världen. En långvarig postpartum depression hos kvinnan kan ha avgörande konsekvenser för utvecklingen av hennes barn och relationen till hennes partner. Många kvinnor lider i tystnad då de inte vet att det finns en förklaring till känslorna de genomgår eller att de skäms för att inte klara av att leva upp till bilden av den ”perfekta mamman”. <strong>Syfte: </strong>Att beskriva upplevelser av postpartum depression hos vuxna kvinnor diagnostiserade med PPD.</p><p><strong>Metod: </strong>Sju vetenskapliga artiklar användes för att genomföra denna systematiska litteraturstudier med en induktiv ansats. <strong>Resultat:</strong> Utifrån frågan ”vilka gemensamma upplevelser genomgår kvinnor med PPD”? Framkom sju teman: misslyckande, stress, ensamhet, inre strid, förlust av kontroll, rädsla och skam. <strong>Slutsats: </strong>Hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal inom MHV (Mödrahälsovård) och BHV (Barnahälsovård) kan lättare upptäcka tidiga symtom och tecken hos nyblivna mammor med postpartum depression genom att förstå deras upplevelser av PPD, och därmed förhindra en långvarig depression.</p><p> </p><p><p> </p><p> </p></p><p> </p><p> </p><p><p> </p><p> </p></p><p> </p><p> </p><p><p><p> </p><p> </p></p></p>

A mixed method research methodology based on the principles of empirical research in social learning family interventions and narrative inquiry was employed to explore and explicate the effects of in-home Parent Management Training (PMT) for mothers of children/adolescents who have Conduct Problems (CP). Prior research has indicated that mothers of such children and adolescents experience more psychological, social and emotional distress than their same-sex peers. As well, these mothers report feeling less confident about their ability to parent their children in the face of on-going challenging behaviors such as child non-compliance, defiance, disobedience and aggression. In previous research, mothers have described themselves as isolated socially, personally defeated, and often economically disadvantaged by the demands of coping with their children's/adolescents' acting-out behaviors at home, school, and in their neighborhoods. The current research evaluated the effectiveness of treatment for mothers and children based on a multisystemic approach (MST) to providing in-home PMT. Mothers (n = 26) in the treatment condition were measured three times using standardized questionnaires of parenting stress and parenting self-agency. In addition, mothers and teachers each completed the appropriate form of the same behavior checklist of child/adolescent psychopathology three times. Nine of the mothers also participated in three narrative interviews, which queried their experiences of parenting a child/adolescent with CP, their subsequent experiences of the in-home parenting skills intervention, and their ability to cope four months post-treatment. Statistical analyses indicated positive changes in mothers' reported levels of parenting self-agency, and reductions in their levels of parenting stress. Teachers' scores remained unchanged. Thematic analysis of mothers' interviews yielded data that supported the quantitative findings; however, the interview data was also found to contribute unique information about the quality of mothers' parenting, marital and other relationships, as well as their opinions of whether the in-home counselling was personally supportive and effective in teaching them additional behavior management skills. Whereas most of the mothers interviewed reported feeling supported by the in-home counsellor, as well as significant improvements to their parenting skills, the mothers also reported that their children required on-going parenting efforts that were consistent with reduced but not unremitting child/adolescent CP. Implications for clinical practice and future research are suggested, based on the limited generality of the findings. / Graduate
