AbstractMental health and mental health disorders among clinicians remain a taboo, despite increasing evidence showing the direct impact on medical teams and patient care. This editorial is aimed at increasing awareness of mental issues amongst healthcare professionals, identifying perceived barriers to seeking help, and suggesting ways in which to seek help. Mental health disorders, including anxiety and depression, are prevalent from medical school, leading to increased burnout and suicide risks at later stages of a clinician’s career. There is often a reluctance to seek help, particularly amongst the surgical specialties, caused by self-criticism, lack of convenient access and the potential negative impact on medical licensure. This editorial has been written in loving memory of our colleague, friend and board member Dr. Nikolaus Veit-Rubin, who sadly passed away at the beginning of the year. It is written in the hope of highlighting the importance of maintaining mental wellbeing amongst the medical team, supporting help-seeking behaviour and changing attitudes toward mental health disorders amongst clinicians.

Health Legislation

SummaryThis commentary explores the issue of personality disorder and mental health legislation from a UK perspective, highlighting the differences between its four countries and three mental health acts. It discusses data from Scotland that support the contention that the addition of the term ‘personality disorder’ to mental health legislation is not alone sufficient to change current practice. The legislative criterion of risk to others is discussed and the varying responses in the UK to the contentious issue of preventive detention, highly likely to be relevant to serious offenders with personality disorder, are described, including the indeterminate sentence of imprisonment for public protection and the order of lifelong restriction. It is concluded that, regardless of location, care of patients with a primary diagnosis of personality disorder will be driven forward not by legislation but by service development, research and changing attitudes.

There is a dearth of qualitative research exploring how freelancers working in the cultural industries have been affected during COVID-19. In particular, there is a lack of research exploring how socioeconomic and psychosocial adversities may have changed or evolved, and how these changes have been experienced. This study builds on qualitative interviews carried out in July-November 2020 (n=20) by exploring findings from follow-up interviews conducted in May-July 2021 (n=16). It presents a diversity of experiences, showing how some freelancers experienced small changes (e.g., to the kind of work carried out), with others experiencing major changes (e.g., leaving the sector completely). The study also explores experiences of ongoing or increased mental health impact, as well as changing attitudes to cultural work. It concludes with a call for highly bespoke support in the future that can address the huge disparity of experiences during this time.

Nabi Muhammad Swa. diturunkan Tuhan untuk memperbaiki akhlak kaum Quraish Mekkah yang tidak beradap/jahiliyah, begitu juga Nabi Isa AS diturunkan sebagai gembala umatnya yang sesat, Sidarta Gautama, Tau Tse, rupanya Tuhan masih sayang pada manusia sehingga mengutus berbagai orang suci penuntun umat manusia pada kaumnya” (Fathurrohman, dkk., 2013:14).  Pendidikan karakter yang kita kenal mencakup 9 pilar pendidikan karakter yaitu: 1) cinta Tuhan dan alam semesta, 2) tanggung jawab, kedisiplinan dan kemandirian, 3) kejujuran, 4) hormat dan santun, 5) kasih sayang, kepedulian dan kerja sama, 6) percaya diri, kreatif, kerja keras, pantang menyerah, 7) keadilan dan kepemimpinan, 8) baik dan rendah hati, 9) toleransi, cinta damai, dan persatuan.

IntroductionStigma effects on the process of mental disorders and many researchers consider it as the most serious risk factor and inhibitor in promoting mental health.AimsThe aim of this study was to explore the strategies to reduce the stigma toward people with mental disorders in Iran.MethodsThis qualitative study, using content analysis method, was undertaken from 2013 to 2015. All participants were recruited by purposive sampling method. They were stakeholders of mental health in Iran. Data were collected through 16 individual interviews, 2 focus group interviews and 6 written narratives. The data were collected, coded and analyzed simultaneously.ResultsThe major themes were: “Emphasis on education and changing attitudes”, “Changing the culture”, “Promoting services and support coverage”, “Role of various organizations and institutions”, “Integrated reform of structures and policies to improve the performance of custodians”, and “Evidence-based actions”.ConclusionIt seems crucial to adopt strategies that lead to reduce the stigma of mental illnesses and increase awareness among people, scholars and service providers in the field of mental health. Additional studies are needed to evaluate the effectiveness of the emerging strategies to reduce stigma.Disclosure of interestThe author has not supplied his declaration of competing interest.
