Exploring women's perspectives on treating hypoactive sexual desire in the context of depressive disorders: A mixed qualitative methods study using online survey and focus group methodology
No full textHypoactive sexual desire is one of the most common sexual problems in women. According to the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-11), Hypoactive Sexual Desire Dysfunction (HSDD) is diagnosed when low sexual desire persists for at least several months and is associated with clinically significant distress. Problems with low desire are widespread in clinical populations of women with other mental disorders, with depression being one of the most common comorbidities (Basson & Gilks, 2018). HSDD negatively impacts various aspects of life, including reduced well-being, lower life satisfaction, mental health problems, and issues within partnerships (Biddle et al., 2009; Herder et al., 2023; Velten & Margraf, 2017). There are effective treatment options for female sexual dysfunction, including hypoactive sexual desire. However, women often avoid seeking professional help, in part due to the stigma surrounding their concerns and structural barriers within the healthcare system. The purpose of this study is to explore the unique perspective of women who experience HSDD while also being diagnosed with a depressive disorder. To this end, the lived experiences and treatment preferences of women will be explored using an online survey and focus group methodology.

A cross-sectional study of children’s irritability determining the links between their ego- resilience and symptoms of anxiety and depression
No full textChildren’s ego-resilience (within-person capacities that facilitate psychological resistance) and irritability (increased proneness to experience negative affective states following environmental stressors) are critical determinants of children’s mental health. Here, we investigated how ego-resilience engages with irritability when linked to symptoms of anxiety and depression. We analyzed cross-sectional survey data from a combined clinical and non- clinical sample. Overall, 228 children (Mage=12.52, SDage=2.69; 41.7% female) reported on symptoms of depression/anxiety, ego-resilience, and irritability. Moderated hierarchical regression analyses showed that ego-resilience was negatively associated with symptoms of anxiety and depression and that irritability was positively related to heightened symptom levels. Ego-resilience and irritability had overall stronger associations with symptoms of depression than anxiety. Irritability moderated the association between ego-resilience and depression, such that the effects of ego-resilience were stronger among highly irritable children. We discuss our findings within environmental and biological sensitivity frameworks. Future research must substantiate our findings and determine whether sensitivity frameworks help better understand the potentially interrelated impact of ego-resilience with irritability on children’s mental health
