Ten participants directly exposed to pellet gun violence were interviewed. Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis was used for data analysis. Physical injuries led to severe emotional dysregulation, including irritability, aggression, and frustration. Victims reported disrupted eating patterns and psychological trauma. Their self-identity was deeply affected, marked by role reversal, temporal disconnection, guilt, and worthlessness. Economic struggles emerged as a major challenge. Academically, vision loss and trauma-induced distress resulted in diminished motivation and uncertainty about continuing education. Socially, many victims faced victim-blaming, though parental support served as a crucial resilience factor. Spiritual beliefs and religious practices, like prayer, helped individuals cope, avoid self-harm, and stay resilient during hardship. The study highlights the need for trauma-informed interventions, social inclusion programs, and faith-based approaches to support survivors of pellet gun.","PeriodicalId":72633,"journal":{"name":"Cogent mental health","volume":"4 1","pages":"2561668"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12536716/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145558640","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although these symptoms may co-vary, they often require distinct clinical attention. Treating each disorder in a sequential way may be beneficial, but no evidence supports the choice of one sequence over another. Allowing participants to choose the order of treatment may increase engagement and reduce attrition. This study explores the efficacy of a sequential intervention combining three cognitive-behaviour treatment (CBT) protocols (for PTSD, insomnia and recurrent nightmares) allowing participants to choose the order. The aims of the study were to document the overall intervention efficacy and to evaluate the differential outcome of the chosen sequences. Fourteen participants suffering from PTSD, comorbid insomnia disorder and recurrent nightmares were recruited. Results showed decreases in PTSD, insomnia, depression and anxiety symptoms and nightmare distress after the intervention. Participants targeting PTSD first did not seem to benefit more from the intervention than those targeting sleep difficulties first. All participants who completed the intervention were in PTSD remission at post-treatment, and 90% at 12-month follow-up. These exploratory findings support the feasibility of sequentially addressing PTSD, insomnia and nightmares, and provide evidence for selecting treatment sequence according to patient preferences.","PeriodicalId":72633,"journal":{"name":"Cogent mental health","volume":"4 1","pages":"2555229"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12536719/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145558559","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Daily life can be made easier by learning from others or developing one's own strategies. The healthcare services can provide information and interventions, but we know little about what the adults with ADHD themselves say they need, and in which ways they are involved in their care. The purpose of this study is to explore the experiences adults with ADHD have of being involved in their care. Fifteen semi structured in-depth interviews were conducted. The data were analyzed with qualitative latent content analysis that revealed one major theme: \"Becoming someone like anyone else\" and three sub-themes \"Being connected\", \"Finding a place in companionship\" and \"Pathways to participation in care\". The findings of this study emphasize that adults with ADHD express a desire to be involved in the care and treatment for their ADHD if a sense of security and their information needs are met. This involvement becomes part of what leads them towards a more self-sufficient state where they can feel like anyone else and gain more strategies to manage their daily lives.","PeriodicalId":72633,"journal":{"name":"Cogent mental health","volume":"4 1","pages":"2550308"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12536718/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145558678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigated how environmental, governmental, and commute-related stressors relate to everyday wellbeing. We hypothesized that the presence of these daily stressors would be linked to experiences of higher negative affect. To capture individuals' daily experiences in an ecologically valid manner, experience sampling methodology was adopted. Over the course of a day, participants were randomly prompted once within every hour (a total of 10 prompts) to report their negative affect and encounters with specified daily stressors. The environmental, governmental, and commute-related stressors were linked to higher negative affect. Environmental stressors were uniquely associated with worse daily wellbeing after accounting for health stressors. Environmental stressors also interacted with other governmental stressors. Particularly, the experience of both environmental and governmental stressors was cumulatively associated with significantly higher negative affect, compared to either one of these stressors being absent. These findings highlight the connection between environmental stressors with governmental and health stressors and the daily toll these stressors can have on individuals' everyday wellbeing. This work emphasizes the importance of addressing complex stressors relevant to climate change vulnerabilities.","PeriodicalId":72633,"journal":{"name":"Cogent mental health","volume":"4 1","pages":"2539201"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12536717/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145558667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These changes influence various aspects of early adolescents' lives, including sleep patterns. Sleep is essential for healthy development, impacting cognitive functions, psychological well-being, and physical health. During puberty, sleep-wake regulation undergoes substantial modifications, often leading to changes in subjective sleep quality, daytime alertness, sleep timing, efficiency, duration, and sleep-related behaviours. This review aims to examine the intricacies of sleep during puberty, taking a biopsychosocial approach to the factors at different levels that affect sleep health changes, including individual-level (hormonal, neurocognitive, and psychological), contextual-level (school, family, peers, and social media use), and cultural and environmental-level (social roles, socio-economic factors and cultural aspects), with a focus on the differences observed between boys and girls. Clinical implications for promoting sleep health and treating sleep difficulties in puberty will be discussed. Understanding the different factors affecting sleep health in puberty and the sex-specific sleep patterns is crucial for addressing the unique needs of pubertal girls and boys and promoting their overall well-being.","PeriodicalId":72633,"journal":{"name":"Cogent mental health","volume":"4 1","pages":"2541697"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12442616/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145558534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The prevalence of hypertension is rising due to aging and lifestyle factors such as poor diets and insufficient physical activity. Conventional therapy modalities often encompass physical or pharmacological measures; nevertheless, the mental practice of meditation has been employed for centuries to reduce cardiovascular risk. However, the scientific revitalization of this technique has previously prompted doubts over its legitimacy. This paper examines the effects of guided meditations and mindfulness techniques on blood pressure regulation and their potential to enhance cardiac biomarkers, including heart rate variability, cortisol levels, and inflammatory markers, through a review of existing literature and empirical studies. The findings suggest that mindfulness and guided meditation may serve as promising, non-pharmacological complements to traditional hypertension and cardiovascular disease treatments, though further research is needed to strengthen these conclusions.","PeriodicalId":72633,"journal":{"name":"Cogent mental health","volume":"4 1","pages":"2535718"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12442586/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145558676","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The screening tool was an adapted Patient Health Questionnaire - 9 (aPHQ-9). The PHQ-9 is validated and used worldwide. aPHQ-9 scores range from 0 to 27, with a score ≥ 9 used to define eligibility for counseling. The screening tool is administered by a counselor. A culturally adapted cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) curriculum was developed, designed to mitigate the adverse consequences of dysphoria and empower participants to constructively reintegrate into their families and communities. All communication with the illiterate participants utilized pictures and verbal idioms. Counseling was largely delivered individually, and consisted of six 45-minute sessions. Sustained counseling participation was 92%, as defined by attending multiple sessions.

In this qualitative descriptive study, 30 semi-structured online interviews were conducted between June and August 2021 with adolescents (13-18 years old, 53.3% girls) living in Canada and analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. Four themes were constructed: 1) perceptions of others being unable to understand and/or help them, 2) discomfort disclosing concerns to a potential helper, 3) concerns about parents and/or peers finding out due to questioned privacy and confidentiality, particularly in the school context, and 4) perceptions about their capacity to access formal support. Themes were related to participants' perceptions of parent/guardian and peer beliefs regarding mental health and help seeking. Parents were experienced as gatekeepers to adolescents' access to mental health services and resources. This study highlights the importance of considering adolescent development in accessibility, particularly their increasing autonomy. Despite schools often being regarded as the ideal location to first connect youth with mental health services, adolescents continue to experience many barriers to seeking and accessing help within this context.
