Mental Health Literacy

Many people with mental health problems do not use mental health care, resulting in poorer clinical and social outcomes. lengthwise for low service use rates is still incompletely understood. In this lengthwise, populace occupying study, we inspected the influence of mental health literacy, attitudes toward mental health services, and perceived need for treatment at baseline on actual service use during a 6-month follow-up period, controlling for sociodemographic variables, symptom level, and history of lifetime mental health service use. conclusive perspective to mental health care, surpassing mental health literacy, and more perceived need at baseline significantly predicted the use of psychotherapy during the follow-up period. The greater perceived need for treatment and better literacy at baseline were predictive of taking psychiatric medication during the following 6 months. Our findings suggest that mental health literacy, attitudes to treatment, and perceived need may be targets for interventions to increase mental health service use.
