Abstract

Introduction Cancer causes not only physical symptoms but also psychological distress. Situational forgiveness may help patients cope with emotional burdens, yet little is known about this process among Indonesian cancer patients. Aim This study explored the process and influencing factors of situational forgiveness among cancer patients using a photovoice approach. A qualitative Participatory Action Research design with photovoice was conducted among cancer patients. Result Thematic analysis identified four themes: causes of suffering, denial, coping strategies (social support and religiosity), and forgiveness through reconstruction, gratitude, spiritual beliefs, and healthy lifestyle changes. Conclusion Forgiveness developed gradually from denial toward acceptance, supported by family, community, and faith. Situational forgiveness is a dynamic psychological process shaped by emotional, social, spiritual, and cultural factors. Strengthening family, community, and spiritual support may promote psychological well-being among cancer patients.

Abstract

Introduction Depression among adolescents with antisocial behavioral tendencies is often hidden behind observable behaviors such as rule-breaking, irritability, withdrawal, and interpersonal conflict. Aim This study aimed to explore how depression is experienced and expressed among adolescents with antisocial behavioral tendencies using a participatory Photovoice approach. Result Three interconnected themes emerged: adverse childhood experiences, antisocial coping, and depressive conditions. Family conflict, parental infidelity, bullying, academic pressure, and limited emotional support were associated with participants' negative perceptions of themselves, others, and their future. Antisocial behaviors were described not only as externalizing behaviors but also as maladaptive coping strategies used to manage unresolved emotional distress. Participants also described persistent sadness, loneliness, hopelessness, low self-worth, and social withdrawal as part of their depressive experiences. Conclusion These findings highlight the complex relationship between depression and antisocial behavioral tendencies and demonstrate the value of participatory approaches such as Photovoice in understanding adolescents' subjective emotional experiences.
