首次发作精神病是进行干预以防止未来损伤和启动最佳干预的关键时期。使用一个解释性的互动框架,进行了二次分析的基础上的叙述青年精神病的经验,访谈记录。我们的目标是更好地了解决定寻求(或不寻求)心理健康系统帮助的因素。研究结果表明,寻求帮助是一个社会过程,涉及广泛的影响,两个这样的影响突出在本文中,一个人回避战略的忽视和隐藏的早期症状,并在社会网络中的重要他人的说服力的影响。
First episode Psychosis represents a critical period for intervention to prevent future impairments and to initiate optimal interventions. Using an interpretive interactionist framework, a secondary analysis of interview transcripts was conducted based on the narratives of youth experiences of psychosis. Our goal was to better understand the factors involved in the decision to seek help (or not) from the mental health system. Findings suggest that help seeking is a social process involving a wide range of influences; two such influences are highlighted in this paper, an individual avoidant strategy of ignoring and hiding early symptoms, and the persuasive influence of significant others in the social network.
