- W2732350161 abstract "One of the most common reasons individuals do not seek mental health treatment is a preference to manage emotional concerns on their own. Self-management refers to the strategies that individuals use on their own (i.e., without professional guidance) to manage symptoms. Little research has examined self-management for anxiety despite its potential utility as the first step in a stepped care approach to primary care. The objectives of this study were to describe patients' anxiety self-management strategies, identify which types were perceived to be effective, and explore potential correlates.This was an exploratory descriptive study (N = 182) of nontreatment seeking Veterans Health Administration primary care patients (M = 58.3 years of age, SD = 14.9) who reported current anxiety symptoms (≥8 on Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7). The Institutional Review Board approved the study, and all participants provided informed consent. We assessed self-management strategies, anxiety and depression symptoms, and past-year treatment via telephone. Two independent raters coded strategies into 1 of 7 categories (kappa = 0.85) and 23 subcategories (kappa M = 0.82, SD = 0.16).Participants reported nearly universal (98%) use of self-management, with an average of 2.96 (SD = 1.2) strategies used in the past 3 months, and 91% of all strategies perceived as effective. Self-care (37.0%), cognitive (15.8%), and avoidance (15.1%) strategies were reported most commonly; the most prevalent subcategories were exercise (11.0% of all strategies), redirecting thoughts (9.1%), and family/friends (8.1%). Age and depression screen status were associated with self-management strategy use.Our results demonstrate the ubiquity and high perceived effectiveness of self-management for anxiety among Veteran primary care patients. Although avoidance strategies were fairly common, self-care strategies, particularly exercising, and cognitive strategies, such as redirecting thoughts, were most prevalent in this sample. Strengths of the study include its novelty, our sample of non-treatment seeking Veteran primary care patients with current symptoms, and the open-ended format of the strategies questions. Limitations include reliance on self-report data, dichotomous response options for the perceived effectiveness item, limited number of potential correlates, and sampling from a single medical center. Overall, this research highlights the opportunity that health care providers have to engage primary care patients around self-management to determine what strategies they are using and how effective those strategies may be. Future directions include identification of the most effective and feasible self-management strategies for anxiety to facilitate promotion of evidence-based self-management among primary care patients." @default.
