Objective To describe and analyze the experience of parents of non-suicidal self-injury(NSSI) adolescents in caregiving and coping,and to provide a basis for developing family support programs. Methods It was a descriptive phenomenological study. Purposive sampling was used to select 19 parents of NSSI adolescents who sought medical treatment at a tertiary hospital in Guangzhou from August to October 2022. Face-to-face semi-structured interviews were conducted,and the Colaizzi 7-step analysis method was used to summarize and refine the themes. Results 4 core themes were identified:parents of NSSI adolescents experienced various negative emotions in caregiving,including helplessness,confusion,panic,self-blame,anger,and grief;parents created a positive family environment through acquiring relevant knowledge,improving communication,and increasing companion time;some parents lacked effective coping strategies and tended to use violent communication,strict prohibitions,or indulgence as a single strategy;external support was insufficient,and parents hoped to receive more help from schools,hospitals,and communities. Conclusion Parents of NSSI adolescents experienced complex negative emotions,and attempted to create a positive family environment to reduce their adolescent’s NSSI behavior. However,they still lacked effective coping strategies and hoped to receive more external support. Healthcare professionals should provide emotional support and positive guidance to parents,explore effective family intervention strategies,and collaborate with families,schools,and communities to promote the physical and mental health of adolescents.
