While some stress is necessary to successfully adapt during the transition from adolescence to adulthood, many college students may have difficulty adapting and be more prone to significant emotional distress that impacts daily life. Grounded theory methodology was used to examine the process of managing self-identified depression during the first year of college. Purposive sampling was used to recruit first-semester sophomore students who self-identified as being depressed during their freshman year. Thirty-five interviews were completed, each began with one open-ended question: \"What was the experience of your freshman year in college?\" Participants described the social context of depression during their freshman year. Analysis was completed by four experienced researchers using NVivo. Four themes emerged to form the grounded theory of <i>Managing Self-identified Depression during the Freshman Year of College.</i> These themes included: navigating the day-to-day context; making and maintaining meaningful connections; living with emotions, behaviors, and history of depression; and coping to manage depressive symptoms. As the mental health issues continue to increase in this population, grounded theory provides a better understanding of the needs of students living with depression during their freshman year in college.</p>","PeriodicalId":14664,"journal":{"name":"Issues in Mental Health Nursing","volume":" ","pages":"180-188"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143364867","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study is to describe district nurse's experiences of encountering people with mental ill-health in rural primary care. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine district nurses working in primary care in rural areas in Northern Sweden. Interviews were analyzed with qualitative content analysis. The results describe district nurses' experiences of encountering people with mental ill-health as a strive for a good relationship. They wanted to understand the core of patients' needs and adjust their approach based on that. However, organizational obstacles and opportunities affected these encounters, particularly the lack of time and the importance of continuity. Being a primary care nurse in a rural setting provides specific challenges and opportunities when caring for people with mental ill health. District nurses would benefit from organizational support in establishing and maintaining good relationships as a foundation for quality care.
