Major depression is a serious mental health problem that affects 35.1 million Americans and disproportionately affects women at a rate of 2:1. Recovery from major depression includes relief from symptoms as well as improved psychological well-being and quality of life. Improved quality of life and decreased morbidity have been linked to "hope" as a factor in recovery in a variety of medical conditions. Hope has rarely been studied from the perspective of women recovering from depression. While the nursing literature does describe the critical role that hope plays in the healing process of other health problems and in the practice of nursing, it does not specifically address hope in women's recovery from major depression. This phenomenological study guided by Streubert's (1991) method, describes the lived experience of hope from the perspective of 11 women recovering from depression. Four essences of hope were revealed: belief in a better future, vital life energy, fostered in caring connections and diminished in distress, that comprise the formalized description of the lived experience of hope in women recovering from major depression. Hope was revealed to be powerfully energizing as the awareness of hope arose concurrently with the onset of recovery from depression. Specific hope fostering characteristics of self, spiritual, and interpersonal connections were uncovered. These findings have important implications for research, practice, and education in relation to recovery from major depression.
