Whose life am I living? Relatives living in the shadow of depression
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Families living with mental illness experience added burden and need information and support. AIM: This aim of this study was to explore the experiences of families living close to a depressed individual. METHODS: Eighteen persons were interviewed individually or in focus groups. Data was analysed using a grounded theory-inspired methodology. RESULTS: Most participants expressed a feeling of not living their own life, struggling to balance relationships, adapting to and re-evaluating their life circumstances, and struggling to voice their ill relatives' and their own needs. CONCLUSIONS: More can be done to help and sustain hope in the relatives of persons with depression.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
