本研究调查了9名父母患有精神疾病的年轻人的个人账户。成年人的个人损失的经验，由于他们的父母的精神疾病和他们的宗教信仰之旅和精神斗争的看法进行了描述。总体而言，由于父母的精神疾病而经历更多个人损失的年轻人也报告说，他们在信仰之旅中感到更加困惑，并报告说，相对于那些经历较少个人损失的参与者，他们经历了更多的精神斗争。无论个人损失的程度如何，所有参与者都确定了应对父母疾病所带来的积极的个人属性，包括更大的独立感，个人力量和同情心。(C)2010 Wiley Periodicals，Inc.
The present study examines the personal accounts of nine young adults who have parents living with mental illness. Adults' experience of personal loss due to their parents' mental illness and perceptions of their religious faith journey and spiritual struggles are described. Overall, young adults who reported experiencing more personal loss due to their parents' mental illness also reported feeling more confused on their faith journey, and reported experiencing more spiritual struggle relative to participants who reported experiencing less personal loss. Regardless of level of personal loss, all participants identified positive personal attributes that resulted from coping with their parents' illness, including a greater sense of independence, personal strength, and compassion.
