The eligibility criteria were based on the population, concept, and context framework: people diagnosed with major depressive disorder aged &gt;18 years (population), therapeutic guidelines for self-management of major depressive disorder symptoms (concept), and symptoms of major depressive disorder (context). Data collection was carried out from March to July 2022 and updated in June 2024. The included studies were experimental, quasi-experimental, analytical observational, descriptive observational, qualitative, or quantitative studies; systematic reviews and meta-analyses; and scoping and literature reviews published in full without time restrictions in English, Spanish, or Portuguese. All the information, as well as the studies captured, was stored in a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet using Rayyan and the JBI Manual for Evidence Synthesis. The titles, abstracts, and full texts were carefully read and classified, extracting the results. After review by 2 independent researchers, 62 studies were selected. The results are presented descriptively, including characterization of the studies and mapping and categorization of groups and subgroups of therapeutic guidelines for self-management of major depressive disorder.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In total, 62 studies published between 2011 and 2023 were included, where 44 (71%) came from indexed data sources and 18 (29%) were gray literature indexed on Google Scholar (13\/62, 21%), doctoral theses (3\/62, 5%), and master\u2019s dissertations (2\/62, 3%). Among the therapeutic guidelines identified, mapped, and categorized, 7 major groups were identified for self-management: psychotherapy (32\/62, 52%), adoption of healthy habits (25\/62, 40%), integrative and complementary practices (17\/62, 27%), relaxation techniques (9\/62, 14%), consultation with a health professional (14\/62, 22%), pharmacological therapy (9\/62, 14%), and leisure or pleasurable activities (4\/62, 6%).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>It was possible to identify therapeutic guidelines to promote self-management of major depressive disorder in the adult population.
