Abstract

Anhedonia, defined as the reduced ability to experience pleasure, is a core symptom of major depressive disorder (MDD) and is increasingly recognized as a transdiagnostic marker that bridges depressive and anxiety disorders. This report presents the case of a 16-year-old Indonesian girl who exhibited pervasive sadness, irritability, fatigue, and marked anhedonia characterized by complete disengagement from competitive swimming, a central aspect of her self-identity. Psychosocial stressors, including parental conflict and academic pressure, preceded the escalation of symptoms. Clinical assessment revealed a severe depressive episode, with a Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) score of 24 and significant anhedonia confirmed by the Snaith–Hamilton Pleasure Scale (SHAPS). Neurological and laboratory examinations were unremarkable. The patient was diagnosed with severe MDD (F32.2) and comorbid generalized anxiety disorder (F41.1) according to PPDGJ-III and DSM-5 criteria. Treatment included sertraline (up to 50 mg/day), short-term clobazam, and supportive psychotherapy with family intervention. At four-week follow-up, depressive symptoms improved, accompanied by partial recovery of motivation and social engagement. This case highlights anhedonia as a clinically prominent and functionally impairing symptom in adolescent depression and anxiety. Beyond its emotional dimension, anhedonia reflects a disruption of reward processing that contributes to poor academic, social, and developmental outcomes. Routine assessment of anhedonia using structured instruments such as SHAPS and culturally sensitive interviews may improve diagnostic precision and guide personalized treatment. Early detection and integrative interventions—combining pharmacological, psychotherapeutic, and family-based approaches—are essential for optimizing recovery and preventing long-term disability in adolescent mood disorders.

Abstract

Prevalensi stunting di Jawa Timur pada tahun 2022 mencapai 23,5%, lebih tinggi dari target WHO sebesar 20%. Stunting pada balita berdampak tidak hanya pada pertumbuhan fisik, tetapi juga meningkatkan risiko penyakit seperti tuberkulosis (TB). Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa balita dengan status gizi stunting berisiko 2,96 kali lebih tinggi terkena TB, sementara balita dengan severely stunting memiliki risiko 8,18 kali lebih tinggi. Di Desa Roomo, Kabupaten Gresik, penanganan stunting dan TB masih terbatas, khususnya terkait pemenuhan gizi seimbang untuk ibu dan anak. Oleh karena itu, kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan partisipasi masyarakat dalam pencegahan stunting dan TB secara berkelanjutan melalui pemanfaatan modul terapan. Metode yang digunakan adalah pemberdayaan kader desa, edukasi masyarakat, serta distribusi makanan tambahan (PMT) berbasis ikan laut dan virgin coconut oil (VCO). Kegiatan ini dilakukan dengan melibatkan RS Graha Husada Gresik dan kelompok nelayan Gresik Utara. Hasil menunjukkan adanya peningkatan berat badan anak sebesar 0,5 hingga 1 kg, serta peningkatan pengetahuan kader desa dan masyarakat tentang pencegahan stunting dan TB. Kader yang telah dilatih berhasil menjalankan perannya dalam memantau pemberian PMT dan memberikan edukasi kesehatan. kegiatan ini berhasil meningkatkan status gizi anak dan memberdayakan kader desa dalam mendukung program pencegahan stunting dan TB. Keberlanjutan program ini diharapkan mampu menurunkan prevalensi stunting dan TB di Desa Roomo melalui Posko Tanggap Stunting dan TB Anak yang aktif digunakan untuk pemantauan kesehatan.

Abstract

Schizophrenia is a chronic psychiatric disorder that imposes a substantial burden on patients and caregivers. Antipsychotic polypharmacy remains a common clinical practice to manage persistent positive and negative symptoms, although growing evidence indicates it does not significantly improve treatment outcomes and may instead increase adverse effects, treatment costs, and non-adherence. This case study aimed to describe the clinical benefits and rational considerations of switching from antipsychotic polypharmacy to monotherapy in a patient with hebephrenic schizophrenia. A 37-year-old woman with a 20-year history of hebephrenic schizophrenia was observed. She had previously received a combination of chlorpromazine and trifluoperazine with trihexyphenidyl for extrapyramidal symptom prevention. Clinical evaluations were performed to assess therapeutic effects, side effects, and medication adherence before and after the switch to chlorpromazine monotherapy. During the polypharmacy phase, the patient experienced several side effects, including insomnia, restlessness, irritability, and mild extrapyramidal symptoms. After transitioning to monotherapy with an adjusted chlorpromazine dose, she showed notable improvement in psychotic symptoms, sleep quality, and social functioning without severe adverse reactions. Medication adherence increased as the patient reported greater comfort and tolerance with a single-drug regimen. This case suggests that switching from antipsychotic polypharmacy to monotherapy can reduce side effects, improve adherence, and maintain clinical stability. Rational and individualized use of antipsychotics should be prioritized to achieve better long-term outcomes and quality of life in schizophrenia management.

Abstract

Micro and small-scale digital startups face intense psychological and operational pressures that often result in burnout, chronic stress, and adjustment problems. Yet, mental health issues within startup ecosystems remain insufficiently addressed and lack structured intervention. This literature review synthesizes cross-disciplinary studies published between 2013 and 2025 to examine how workplace spirituality can be integrated into startup work culture and its potential application within community psychiatry. The review indicates that workplace spirituality enhances mental well-being, reduces stress symptoms, and strengthens resilience, functioning as a psychological buffer for entrepreneurs facing high uncertainty. Spirituality also provides a conceptual bridge between managerial and clinical perspectives, enabling more holistic and human-centered approaches to mental health in startup environments. Integrating spiritual values into entrepreneurial settings emerges as an effective non-clinical strategy to sustain founders' mental health and expand opportunities for contextual community psychiatry interventions. The novelty of this study lies in its cross-disciplinary mapping that links startup management, spiritual psychology, and community psychiatry into a practical and preventive intervention framework.

Abstract

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) frequently coexists with chronic medical illnesses, creating a complex interaction that may intensify psychological distress and the perception of physical symptoms. This case report describes a 62-year-old male with GAD and multiple chronic comorbidities, including atherosclerotic heart disease, hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus with nephropathy, and benign prostatic hyperplasia. The patient presented with persistent health-related worry, sleep disturbance, and heightened preoccupation with bodily sensations, accompanied by moderate impairment in quality of life. Clinical assessment and psychological screening indicated significant anxiety symptoms without prominent depressive features. Based on clinical observations and integration with the biopsychosocial framework, somatosensory amplification, body hypervigilance, and difficulties in emotional expression were hypothesized to contribute to a psychosomatic interaction pattern. These processes may contribute to a reinforcing psychosomatic cycle in which anxiety intensifies the perception of physical symptoms, while chronic illness functions as a persistent internal stressor that maintains health-related worry. These mechanisms were not directly measured using standardized instruments but were inferred from behavioral patterns, illness narratives, and longitudinal clinical documentation. This case highlights how psychological and medical factors may mutually reinforce each other in elderly patients with multimorbidity. An integrative management approach combining pharmacological treatment, psychoeducation, and supportive psychotherapy may help interrupt this reciprocal cycle and improve functional outcomes and quality of life.

Abstract

Treatment for people with mental disorders (orang dengan gangguan jiwa, ODGJ) in Gresik Regency is still limited to curative (medication) because Gresik Regency does not yet have adequate psychosocial rehabilitation facilities (RPS). RPS aims to restore the social functions of ODGJ so that they are more productive according to their abilities. Activity goals. To initiate the hospital-based RPS activities. Problem-solving framework. The framework is carried out through several activities, such as conducting assessments and focused group discussions with hospitals managers as potential partners, creating RPS service guidelines, conducting training and upgrading skills for health workers, involving ODGJ, families, and health cadres in RPS services, and planning a follow-up with the community health center (community health center, puskesmas), social institutions, and local officials. Results. Grha Husada Gresik Hospital (RSGH) is willing to initiate RPS services in Gresik Regency. This RPS service will be carried out for a minimum of two years, with ODGJ clinical evaluations every three months. The RSGH’s advantage is that it has 4 (four) certified health workers as behavior therapists for children with special needs (ABK). The RPS module was made by modifying the ABK behavior therapy module to suit the needs of adult ODGJ. RPS training is carried out based on the module. A total of 30 participants attended the initial RPS service, consisting of 10 ODGJ patients, 10 companions, and 10 local health cadres. The consistency of the arrival of ODGJ and companions is still low, due to the lack of awareness of the benefits of RPS services. RSGH and the health cadres took the initiative together to pick them up, but the arrival rate was still around 5-6 people per meeting. Conclusion. Good cooperation between hospitals, health cadres, and families is the first step for sustainable RPS services. The main challenge is to raise awareness of the need for RPS services for patients and their families.
