Alkol Bağımlılığında İçselleştirilmiş Damgalanma: Depresif Belirtilerle İlişki

Abstract

Alkol bağımlılığında, hastaların

yaşadıkları damgalanmayı içselleştirmeleri

ve buna eşlik depresif belirtiler hem hastaların

sosyal ve mesleksel açıdan verimli bir

hayat yaşamalarını engellemekte hem de

tedavi süreçlerini olumsuz etkilemektedir. Bu

araştırmada alkol bağımlılarının yaşadıkları

içselleştirilmiş damgalanma ve depresyon

ilişkisi ve demografik ve klinik değişkenlerin

içselleştirilmiş damgalanma üzerindeki etkisi

incelenmiştir. Çalışmaya yatarak ve ayaktan

tedavi gören 50 alkol bağımlılısı hasta

alınmıştır. Çalışmada demografik-klinik veri

formu, Ruhsal Hastalıklarda İçselleştirilmiş

Damgalanma Ölçeği (RHİDÖ) ve Beck

Depresyon Ölçeği (BDÖ) kullanılmıştır.

Sonuçlar içselleştirilmiş damgalanma puanı

ile BDÖ toplam puanı arasında pozitif yönde

bir ilişki olduğunu, yatarak tedavi görmenin,

düşük eğitim düzeyinin ve işsizliğin

içselleştirilmiş damgalanmayı olumsuz

yönde etkilediğini göstermektedir. Tartışma

bölümünde depresyon ve damgalanma

ilişkisi ele alınmış ve içselleştirilmiş damgalanma

ile ilişkili bulgular ilgili literatür

ışığında incelenmiştir.

Internalized Stigma in Alcohol Dependence: Association with Depression

Abstract

The internalized stigma and depressive

symptoms in alcohol dependency could have

negative impacts on patient’s social and

occupational life and treatment processes. The

main aims of this research are to examine the

relation between internalized stigma and

depression and to determine the effects of

demographic and clinical variables on

internalized stigma in alcohol dependency.

Patients who attended the study were receiving

outpatient and inpatient alcohol dependency

treatment. In this research demographic- clinic

data form, Internalized Stigma of Mental Illness

Scale (ISMI) and Beck Depression Inventory

were used. Results indicated that internalized

stigma was positively related to depression. In

addition, depression and outpatient treatment,

low educational level and unemployment were

found as the risk factors for internalized

stigma. Findings regarding the relation

between internalized stigma and depression

were discussed in reference to existing

literature.
