Resumen

El trastorno depresivo afecta a personas de todas las edades, incluidos niños y adolescentes, comprometiendo la calidad de vida familiar. El objetivo de este estudio fue: (1) analizar la percepción de los familiares sobre la experiencia de convivir y cuidar de niños y adolescentes con trastorno depresivo; (2) identificar los recursos movilizados por las familias para responder a las demandas de la depresión infantil y adolescente. Los datos, recolectados de entrevistas realizadas con 26 familiares de niños/adolescentes vinculados a dos Centros de Atención, se sometieron a análisis temático. Los resultados muestran la percepción de los cuidadores con relación al trastorno depresivo; al niño y a la vida familiar; y apuntan a la religiosidad y a las familias nucleares y extensas como los recursos que más utilizan. Se concluye con la necesidad de que los profesionales amplíen la asistencia a todos los que conviven con la depresión infantil, ya que este trastorno impacta la vida familiar como un todo.
