Summary

From the interview, the mentioned knowledge gap identified in the field of Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner is the gap in the implementation of efforts of enhancing global mental health. According to the interviewee, mental disorders have already been mentioned as a major public health issue today and a lot of research done in the various mental disorder, their causes and even prevalence (Barlow, 2018). Even further in many countries across the globe resources to help fight these disorders have been deployed. Despite all this, however, the levels of mental health disorders are in the rise across the globe. This to him meant that the implementation of the efforts has not been successful and therefore there is a gap of knowledge on how to implement activities of alleviating mental disorders in order to cause the intended impact.

He recommended a re-evaluation of the efforts to make sure that they are not only addressing the disorder, but rather the underlying causes to make sure that a more permanent solution is pursued. In exploring these knowledge gaps, he recommended an investigation into the disconnect that exists between the good proposed efforts and unfruitful implementation (Cunico, Fredo & Bernini, 2017). World Health Organization journals and reports can be a major source of information on this because this is an organization that has already started looking into this disconnect. National Institute of Mental health was also mentioned as a good source. For any researcher, he said the best tip he could offer was that the aim should not only be to contribute to knowledge but also ensure that the knowledge being contributed is accurate and based on evidence since this is the only way to make a positive impact in the field and this is the biggest lesson I took from the interview.

Research topic

A systematic review of the association between stigma and or on help-seeking among mental health patients.

Research Problem

Stigma or the process of labelling, discrimination and prejudice towards individuals suffering from mental health problems is considered to have numerous adverse consequences compared to the health conditions themselves according to Thornicroft, Mehta, Clement, Evans-Lacko, Doherty, Rose & Henderson, (2016). In addition, research has found stigma to be responsible for the failure of numerous individuals suffering from mental health to seek help from both their close relatives or trusted individuals and from healthcare providers (Clement, Schauman, Graham, Maggioni, Evans-Lacko, Bezborodovs, Thornicroft, 2015).

Given an increase in mental health disorders and the challenges that such disorders pose to both individuals and society, numerous studies have been conducted to examine the association between stigma and help-seeking among mental health patients. However, research has largely focused on the attitudes that constitute stigma towards mental health patients and little on the interventions required to reduce or eradicate stigma. Moreover, since the failure to reduce stigma prevents mental health patients from seeking help and hence worsening their conditions, there is need for further studies regarding the association between stigma and help-seeking and the need to reduce stigma making the study not only relevant but significant.

Research purpose

The purpose of this paper is to explore the association between stigma and help-seeking among mental health patients and to identify proven strategies or actionable recommendation for reducing stigma.

Research objectives

The objective of the study will be to (1) Explore the extent to which stigma posses a barrier to help-seeking among mental health patients, (2) Identify whether stigma affects certain populations more than others and (3) propose strategies that can help reduce stigma.

Research question

The study will aim to answer the following questions (1) What is the association between stigma towards mental health patients and help-seeking? (2) To what extent does stigma constitute a barrier to the search for help among mental health patients and (3) Are there populations that are more deterred from seeking help due to stigma?

Research hypothesis

Ho: Stigma towards mental health patients deters them from seeking help

Ha: There is no association between stigma and the search for help among mental health patients.

In addition, the study hypothesizes that a reduction in stigma would result in increased help-seeking among mental health patients.
