Abstract Background Reddit is a highly visited social news and discussion website where individuals anonymously ask questions, post opinions and share experiences, which provide a valuable pool of publicly available data. Our objective was to systematically search and analyze threads on the social news website, Reddit, to understand experiences of individuals with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) regarding their mental health. Methods We conducted a patient-oriented descriptive qualitative study. We identified threads from two subreddits, “r/Thritis” and “r/Rheumatoid”, using keywords such as “mood”, “mental health”, “stressed”, “depressed”, “anxious” over a 1-year period between June 2018 and June 2019. For included threads, we extracted the title, original post, and corresponding comments and responses. We applied thematic analysis using an inductive approach. Results Of 81 threads identified, we included 27. We identified four themes: 1) Navigating the management of RA explores how the physical impacts of the disease, lack of health resources/support and the complexity of medications affect mental health; 2) Experiencing impact on relationships and social isolation includes experiencing misconceptions of RA, feeling misunderstood and feeling guilt; 3) Experiencing loss, touches on the helplessness brought by challenges with performing self-defining activities such as self-care, work, and childbearing/parenting; and finally, 4) Experiencing emotional struggles captures how tension between fighting through and despair has led some to suicide ideation and thoughts of death. Conclusions Online forums and communities such as Reddit have created opportunities for individuals with RA to share experiences on mental health matters, which they may not necessarily be able to share with others.

Abstract Background: Despite the speculations in literature regarding the importance of “social undesirability of hookah smoking”, to our knowledge, no study has yet clearly attempted to define this phenomenon and to make sense of it in terms of the meanings adolescents bring to the concept. The present study was aimed to explore the perceptions of high school students on Social Undesirability of Hookah Smoking (SUoHS).Method: In this qualitative study, 31 students (16 boys and 15 girls) at the range of 15 to 17 years of age in Tabriz, Iran, were invited to participate in semi-structured individual interviews (18 participants) and focus group discussions (FGDs) (13 participants). The data were managed applying MAXQDA-10, and analyzed using interpretative thematic analysis. Results: The SUoHS was viewed at the “highly negative attitude towards hookah smoking and hookah smokers”. The students also explained the SUoHS in “the disvaluing to hookah smoking and smokers in the society”, “the negative attitude towards hookah smokers and their families”, and “the consequences of hookah smoking”. Conclusion: The SUoHS originates from the social context of society, and is rooted from the social values and norms within communities. These social values may affect the attitude and subjective norms of adolescents toward the behavior. Adolescents’ conceptions on SUoHS should be considered while designing hookah smoking prevention/cessation programs with the hope to bridge the gap between their recognition of SUoHS and subsequent behavior change.
