We investigated the lived symptom experiences of eight adolescents (age 13–17 years) with FAPDs, who had received ICBT. Semi-structured interviews were conducted using photo-elicitation, and analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis, identifying three main themes; "Power of thoughts" describes the impact of thoughts on understanding symptoms and self. "Freedom in new behaviors" explores behavior changes in the adolescents and their families. "Mediators of change; why not give it a chance?" explores the helpful treatment-parts and the adolescents' approach toward it. The findings support the positive effects of ICBT for pediatric FAPDs. Specific treatment elements motivated the adolescents, who experienced acquiring self-agency and improved symptom management. An encouraging secondary benefit was the experienced change of family-relationships, likely to further enhance the personal growth of the adolescent. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
