In einvernehmlich nicht monogamen Beziehungen (ENMB) sind Menschen mit mehr als einer Person in einer (sexuellen und/oder emotionalen) Intimbeziehung verbunden. Vermehrt nehmen Personen, die in ENMB leben (wollen), psychosoziale Angebote in Anspruch. Damit Berater*innen angemessen auf deren Beratungsanliegen reagieren können, werden konkrete Empfehlungen für die therapeutische Arbeit formuliert. Die Empfehlungen basieren auf veröffentlichten Fallstudien, die bisher fast ausschließlich in englischer Sprache vorliegen, sowie der Beratungspraxis des Autors. Dadurch soll ein Beitrag zu einer besseren psychosozialen Versorgung von Menschen geleistet werden, die einvernehmlich nicht monogam leben (wollen).
BACKGROUND Anxiety and depression can be a long-term strain in cancer survivors. Little is known about the emotional situation of cancer survivors who have to deal with work- and family-related issues. The purpose of this study was to investigate anxiety and depression in working-age cancer survivors and associated factors. METHODS A register-based sample of 3370 cancer survivors (25 to 55 years at time of diagnosis) diagnosed up to six years prior to the survey was recruited from two German cancer registries. Demographic and medical characteristics as well as self-reported measures were used. RESULTS Overall, approximately 40% of the survivors reported moderate to high anxiety scores and approximately 20% reported moderate to high depression scores. Compared to the general population, working-age cancer survivors were more anxious but less depressed (p < .001). Subgroups with regard to time since diagnosis did not differ in anxiety or depression. Anxiety and depression in cancer survivors were associated with various variables. Better social support, family functioning and physical health were associated with lower anxiety and depression. CONCLUSIONS Overall, we found higher anxiety levels in cancer survivors of working-age than in the general population. A considerable portion of cancer survivors reported moderate to high levels of anxiety and depression. The results indicate the need for psychosocial screening and psycho-oncological support e.g. in survivorship programs for working-age cancer survivors. Assessing the physical health, social support and family background might help to identify survivors at risk for higher emotional distress.
