ABSTRACT Depression is experienced by children and young people worldwide and can have serious long-term impacts, including a high risk of suicide. To date, there are few in-depth qualitative studies investigating young people’s experiences of living with depression and how this affects their education. The current study investigated university students’ lived experiences of depression. Three students, aged 19–21 participated in three sequential individual interviews, each with a different focus: before living with depression; the experience of living with depression; and reflections of the meaning of living with depression. Data were transcribed verbatim and analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), identifying master themes. This paper reports on findings from two themes: ‘the weariness of the world was upon me’, and 'it all fell down to chance' which discuss students’ experiences of living with depression; and facilitators and barriers to accessing help. These are discussed in relation to transition to university, help-seeking and accessing support. Limitations of the study are considered and possible implications for practice outlined.

大学生对抑郁症的看法

摘要全世界的儿童和年轻人都经历过抑郁症,并且可能产生严重的长期影响,包括自杀的高风险。迄今为止,很少有深入的定性研究来研究年轻人的抑郁症生活经历以及这如何影响他们的教育。当前的研究调查了大学生抑郁的生活经历。三名年龄在19-21岁的学生参加了三个连续的个人访谈,每个访谈都有不同的重点:抑郁症发作之前;患有抑郁症的经验;和反思抑郁症的意义。逐字记录数据,并使用解释现象学分析(IPA)进行分析,确定主要主题。本文报告了以下两个主题的发现:“世界的疲倦正在临到我,”和“ 一切都落在了机会上”,它讨论了学生抑郁症的生活经历;以及帮助的障碍和障碍。讨论了有关过渡到大学,寻求帮助和获得支持的问题。考虑了研究的局限性,并概述了对实践的潜在影响。
