All caregivers face unprecedented challenges, but this is further intensified when caring for someone with drug and alcohol dependency which this paper argues are direct social harms.Methods: This paper presents findings from an external evaluation of three projects from a wider national programme funded by NHS England and Improvement [NHSE/I]. Identified by NHSE/I as a vulnerable community, interviews were conducted with eight caregivers who were caring for someone with drug and alcohol dependency, which this paper focuses on.Results: After thematic analysis was conducted on qualitative data, key themes emerged that emphasized a range of specific challenges faced by unpaid carers, including stigmatization and marginalization, a lack of understanding about drug and alcohol dependency, and caring for complex needs, which were particularly challenging in accessing appropriate support.Conclusions: Caregivers overwhelmingly advocated for the urgent need to raise awareness around the role of being a \"carer,\" to see more individualized support provided, in addition to the recognition of treating mental health alongside drug and alcohol dependency in a supportive holistic approach.","PeriodicalId":51468,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-Being","volume":"20 1","pages":"2500395"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12077432/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144063216","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite its significance, little research has examined how individuals cultivate, experience, and lose joy, particularly in relation to its interplay with other emotions and broader aspects of well-being. This study explored the subjective and contextual dimensions of joy among UK adults, including how it is cultivated, lost, and related to the broader aspects of well-being.Methods: Using an exploratory qualitative design, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 14 adults aged 28-59 years. Thematic analysis was employed to identify patterns in participants' experiences of joy, its influences, and impact on well-being.Results: Four key themes were constructed: The Dynamics of Joy in Everyday Life, Determinants of Joy: Influences and Barriers, Impact of Joylessness: Coping Behaviours, and Strategies for Cultivating Joy. Joy was perceived as a distinct, profound emotion, often intertwined with gratitude and love. Barriers to joy included negative relationships, societal pressures, and emotional burdens, whereas fostering positive relationships, engaging with nature, and cultivating self-awareness were identified as key strategies for sustaining joy.Discussion: Findings highlight joy as a complex emotion, distinct from happiness and shaped by individual, relational, and cultural contexts. The study offers insight into joy's emotional and psychological impact, the challenges of its loss, and the enduring value of joyful memories. Participants also shared practical suggestions for cultivating joy, which may inform well-being initiatives in community, educational, or therapeutic settings.","PeriodicalId":51468,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-Being","volume":"20 1","pages":"2508946"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12107667/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144136515","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, changing behaviours is complex, as many factors interact to determine health behaviours. Information, awareness, and knowledge are important but not enough. It is essential to move beyond focusing solely on individual psychological and cognitive factors to an understanding of the complex processes involved in health behaviour change. Social-ecological models account for these complex processes but risk being overly broad and all-encompassing. This qualitative grounded theory study explores how individual, interpersonal, and environmental factors interplay to influence health behaviour, and examines how social-ecological models in health promotion can be tailored to address different ecological needs. Participants were recruited from a community-based cardiovascular disease-prevention program in Northern Sweden. Data was collected through in-depth interviews about health and health behaviours throughout the life course among middle-aged men and women. The results illustrate how factors obstructing or enabling health behaviours vary in patterned ways for individuals with different health identities. Social-ecological interventions could be more effective if adapted to the specific needs of people with different health identities. In addition to screening for various risk factors, screening for health identities could be helpful in designing social-ecological health-promoting interventions.","PeriodicalId":51468,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-Being","volume":"20 1","pages":"2458309"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11789218/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143069436","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adolescents, who are undergoing an important and delicate developmental period, are largely understudied in research on fitfluencers and fitspiration.

Through 20 semi-structured in-depth interviews with adolescents (aged 14-18), this study explores their lived experiences with fitfluencers and the role these play in their mental and physical health, and which opportunities fitfluencers offer to positively impact adolescents. Adolescents reported minimal negative consequences of fitfluencers and experience more motivation than demotivation. Four main opportunities-information, authenticity, actionable content, and entertainment-incited motivation to exercise and make fitfluencers' appearance and lifestyle more attainable and relatable.

The search generated 9,864 studies, which were screened by title, abstract, and full text.Results: Forty articles were included comprising 826 children aged 8-19 years. The key findings were described in four themes: Identifying oneself with mental ill-health, Managing suffering and daily challenges, Seeking supportive and caring relationships and Navigating a complex school environment. Being identified with mental ill-health brought challenges for children's everyday struggles. Their own coping strategies as well as supportive relationships with friends and adults were important. However, the balance between support and stress was complex.Conclusions: Children have a desire to manage and comprehend their complex everyday lives of living with mental ill-health and wish for supported yet independent decision-making. Attitudes of friends, adults and professionals are important in providing understanding and non-judgemental support, valuable for children's well-being. Open conversations about mental health and providing accessible, child-centred interventions based on the needs expressed by children are necessary.

The findings reflected an awareness among students of the occurrence of sexual harassment but confusion over definitions and assignment of responsibility.
