Resumen

La autoestima (AE) y la adaptación social (AS) se deterioran a menudo durante el curso de los trastornos afectivos; este deterioro se asocia con el comportamiento suicida. El propósito del presente estudio era investigar la AE y la AS en los pacientes unipolares o bipolares en relación con las características demográficas y clínicas, especialmente la presencia de suicidalidad (ideación suicida, intento de suicidio o ambas cosas). Se examinó a 44 pacientes, 28 bipolares y 16 unipolares, en remisión durante 3 meses al menos, y a 50 individuos sanos por medio de una entrevista clínica estructurada. La AE y la AS se evaluaron por la Escala de Autoestima de Rosenberg y la Escala de Adaptación Social, respectivamente. Los resultados han mostrado que los pacientes bipolares no diferían de los controles desde el punto de vista de la AE, mientras que los pacientes unipolares tenían una AE más baja que los bipolares y los controles. No se encontraron diferencias significativas en las puntuaciones medias de AS entre los tres grupos. La suicidalidad durante la depresión se asociaba sólo en los pacientes bipolares con AE más baja en la remisión; la asociación de la suicidalidad con la AS era similar, pero no tan pronunciada. Se concluye que la AE baja que permanece en la remisión parece estar relacionada con la expresión de suicidalidad durante los episodios depresivos de los pacientes bipolares, mientras que ningún patrón similar es evidente en los pacientes unipolares.
