Subjective experience of people living with bipolar disorder is gaining attention in the field of research. Improving well-being could be as important as symptom remission, but this constitutes a vague concept. This study aimed at exploring the boundaries and the determinants of the well-being of people living with bipolar disorder in a French context.
Individual semi-structured interviews were conducted with 16 patients by three professionals. Interviews were transcribed and analysed using the thematic analysis method.
Various dimensions emerged as contributing to well-being: daily routines, connectedness, regaining a positive identity, and self-awareness for self-management.
In addition to those common to the general population, this study highlighted specific determinants of well-being: the construction of a positive identity through acceptance of the diagnosis, the importance of self-awareness and self-management. They are highly intertwined with those of personal recovery and could help caregivers design interventions that directly target these goals. This study aimed to identify specific components of well-being for people living with bipolar disorder. Understanding the determinants of well-being enable caregivers to design tailored interventions that directly target quality of life and help improve bipolar disorder outcomes.
在研究领域，双相情感障碍患者的主观体验受到关注。改善幸福感可能与症状缓解同样重要，但这是一个模糊的概念。本研究旨在探索法国背景下双相情感障碍患者幸福感的边界和决定因素。
通过三位专业人员对 16 名患者进行了个体半结构化访谈。使用主题分析方法对访谈进行转录和分析。
各种维度都对幸福感有贡献：日常生活、联系、重新获得积极的身份认同和自我管理意识。
除了与一般人群共有的维度外，本研究还强调了幸福感的具体决定因素：通过接受诊断来构建积极的身份认同、自我意识和自我管理的重要性。它们与个人康复的决定因素高度交织在一起，可以帮助护理人员设计直接针对这些目标的干预措施。本研究旨在确定双相情感障碍患者幸福感的具体组成部分。了解幸福感的决定因素使护理人员能够设计针对生活质量的个性化干预措施，并有助于改善双相情感障碍的预后。
