摘要
最近,吸毒过量死亡人数的增加在美国造成了严重的公共卫生危机。被诊断出患有药物滥用障碍(SUD)的人在接受治疗和康复的过程中,往往会依赖于他们的社会支持网络。虽然来自父母的支持对康复尤其重要,但与支持患有药物滥用症的亲人相关的压力可能会对健康和幸福产生不利影响。对父母和亲人的成见使他们所能提供的支持变得更加复杂。本研究探讨了患 SUD 儿童的父母所经历的照顾者负担和耻辱感。这些经历对他们为自己和子女获得支持和资源的能力所产生的影响尤其令人感兴趣。我们对 25 名患有 SUD 儿童(17-32 岁)的父母(92% 为母亲)进行了一对一的深入访谈。定性主题分析产生了三个主题:(1) 照顾和相关负担,(2) 父母在 SUD 耻辱化方面的经历,(3) 耻辱化对照顾者支持的影响。负担和污名化的经历普遍存在;家长们报告说,由于孩子的诊断,他们受到了污名化(联想污名化),他们目睹自己的孩子受到污名化(替代性污名化),从而产生了心理压力。害怕被评判和感到羞耻导致家长避免向他人透露其子女患有 SUD,并阻碍了他们寻求帮助的行为。当家长寻求正式帮助时,资源有限且不足。研究结果表明,需要提高社区对这一问题的理解和接受程度,并强调了教育在重塑观念方面的潜在作用。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA,保留所有权利)。
"Everyone blames you": Stigma and caregiver burden among parents of children with substance use disorder.
Recent increases in drug overdose deaths have created a significant public health crisis in the United States. Individuals diagnosed with substance use disorder (SUD) often rely on their social support network as they engage in treatment and recovery. While support from parents, in particular, can be vital in recovery, stress associated with supporting loved ones with SUD can have detrimental effects on health and well-being. Stigma toward parents and loved ones further complicates the support they can offer. The present study explores caregiver burden and stigma experienced by parents of children with SUD. The impact of these experiences on their ability to access support and resources, both for themselves and their children, is of particular interest. In-depth one-on-one interviews were conducted with 25 parents (92% mothers) of children (ages 17-32 years old) with SUD. Qualitative thematic analysis resulted in three themes: (1) caregiving and associated burden, (2) parent experiences with SUD stigma, and (3) impact of stigma on caregiver support. Experiences of burden and stigma were prevalent; parents reported stigma directed at them due to their child's diagnosis (associative stigma) as well as psychological distress they experienced witnessing their children experience stigma (vicarious stigma). Fear of judgment and shame led parents to avoid disclosing their child's SUD to others and impeded help-seeking behavior. When parents did seek formal help, resources were limited and insufficient. The findings underscore the need for increased understanding and acceptance from the community, emphasizing the potential role of education in reshaping perceptions.
