Purpose:
To examine the experiences of outpatients with bipolar disorder recording a 10-minute film to show their "being" in a euthymic mood state.
Design And Methods:
A multicenter qualitative study, in the context of a feasibility study for a newly developed intervention. Data were analyzed using the Stevick-Colaizzi-Keen method.
Findings:
Participants experienced the recording as positive and valuable. Although camera anxiety was mentioned frequently, the overall conclusion is that recording a film in the context of a newly developed film intervention is valid.
Practice Implications:
Clear information and support for the patient should be provided during the preparatory conversation and recording.
