憂鬱症發生的頻率在年輕族群中逐漸增加,而在台灣服役,不同於歐美國家的募兵制,易出現身體和心理及憂鬱和適應問題。本文描述一位22歲服役軍人對部隊環境適應不良,併有失眠、無法執行自我照顧、人際互動不良、攻擊行為的重鬱症個案。筆者透過整體性護理評估發現個案有睡眠型態紊亂、自我照顧能力缺失、高危險性暴力行為-朝向他人、社交互動障礙等問題,以支持性護理措施從關係建立、持續不斷的鼓勵、共同參與團體治療及運用社交技巧訓練於護理過程中。在措施執行後發現個案的憂鬱情緒、不良行為模式及社交能力均明顯改善和提昇。個案出院後可規則返診及維持穩定情緒,並至加油站擔任領班職責,因此藉由社交技巧訓練,解決個案的情緒困擾,並改善人際關係以回歸社區生活之適應。
