Abstract Creative activities have been used as therapeutic resource for people with mental disorders in Brazil and worldwide. There is a need to consolidate the body of evidence on the subject by incorporating qualitative data and the conceptual model of recovery. This paper presents a systematic review on the effects of art making as therapeutic resource in mental health. The databases PubMED, LILACS and SciELO were searched and studies on the subject that had qualitative approach and were published in English or Portuguese between 2000 and 2013 were selected. Benefits were evident in key aspects of the subjects' rehabilitation process, such as the relief of negative feelings, empowerment and social reintegration, which are fundamental principles of recovery. It was found that art has a significant therapeutic potential in the psychosocial rehabilitation of people with mental disorders and may represent a valuable resource in the current scenario of challenges to mental health care.

Data and R code used for the analysis of data for the publication: Coumoundouros et al., Cognitive behavioural therapy self-help intervention preferences among informal caregivers of adults with chronic kidney disease: an online cross-sectional survey. BMC Nephrology
Summary of study
An online cross-sectional survey for informal caregivers (e.g. family and friends) of people living with chronic kidney disease in the United Kingdom. Study aimed to examine informal caregivers' cognitive behavioural therapy self-help intervention preferences, and describe the caregiving situation (e.g. types of care activities) and informal caregiver's mental health (depression, anxiety and stress symptoms).
Participants were eligible to participate if they were at least 18 years old, lived in the United Kingdom, and provided unpaid care to someone living with chronic kidney disease who was at least 18 years old.
The online survey included questions regarding (1) informal caregiver's characteristics; (2) care recipient's characteristics; (3) intervention preferences (e.g. content, delivery format); and (4) informal caregiver's mental health. Informal caregiver's mental health was assessed using the 21 item Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS-21), which is composed of three subscales measuring depression, anxiety, and stress, respectively.
Sixty-five individuals participated in the survey.

According to a March 2024 survey conducted in the United States, 32 percent of adults reported feeling that social media had neither a positive nor negative effect on their own mental health. Only seven percent of social media users said that online platforms had a very positive effect on their mental health, while 12 percent of users said it had a very negative impact. Furthermore, 22 percent of respondents said social media had a somewhat negative effect on their mental health. Is social media addictive? A 2023 survey of individuals between 11 and 59 years old in the United States found that over 73 percent of TikTok users agreed that the platform was addictive. Furthermore, nearly 27 percent of those surveyed reported experiencing negative psychological effects related to TikTok use. Users belonging to Generation Z were the most likely to say that TikTok is addictive, yet millennials felt the negative effects of using the app more so than Gen Z. In the U.S., it is also not uncommon for social media users to take breaks from using online platforms, and as of March 2024, over a third of adults in the country had done so. Following mental health-related content Although online users may be aware of the negative and addictive aspects of social media, it is also a useful tool for finding supportive content. In a global survey conducted in 2023, 32 percent of social media users followed therapists and mental health professionals on social media. Overall, 24 percent of respondents said that they followed people on social media if they had the same condition as they did. Between January 2020 and March 2023, British actress and model Cara Delevingne was the celebrity mental health activist with the highest growth in searches tying her name to the topic.

This publication contains the official statistics about uses of the Mental Health Act ('the Act') in England during 2023-24. Under the Act, people with a mental disorder may be formally detained in hospital (or 'sectioned') in the interests of their own health or safety, or for the protection of other people. They can also be treated in the community but subject to recall to hospital for assessment and/or treatment under a Community Treatment Order (CTO). In 2016-17, the way we source and produce these statistics changed. Previously these statistics were produced from the KP90 aggregate data collection. They are now primarily produced from the Mental Health Services Data Set (MHSDS). The MHSDS provides a much richer data source for these statistics, allowing for new insights into uses of the Act. People may be detained in secure psychiatric hospitals, other NHS Trusts or at Independent Service Providers (ISPs). All organisations that detain people under the Act must be registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC). In recent years, the number of detentions under the Act have been rising. An independent review has examined how the Act is used and has made recommendations for improving the Mental Health Act legislation. In responding to the review, the government said it would introduce a new Mental Health Bill to reform practice. This publication does not cover: 1. People in hospital voluntarily for mental health treatment, as they have not been detained under the Act (see the Mental Health Bulletin). 2. Uses of section 136 where the place of safety was a police station; these are published by the Home Office.
Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.The Surveys of Psychiatric Morbidity in Great Britain aim to provide up-to-date information about the prevalence of psychiatric problems among people in Great Britain, as well as their associated social disabilities and use of services. The series began in 1993, and so far consists of the following surveys:OPCS Surveys of Psychiatric Morbidity: Private Household Survey, 1993, covering 10,000 adults aged 16-64 years living in private households;a supplementary sample of 350 people aged 16-64 with psychosis, living in private households, which was conducted in 1993-1994 and then repeated in 2000;OPCS Surveys of Psychiatric Morbidity: Institutions Sample, 1994, which covered 1,200 people aged 16-64 years living in institutions specifically catering for people with mental illness;OPCS Survey of Psychiatric Morbidity among Homeless People, 1994, which covered 1,100 homeless people aged 16-64 living in hostels for the homeless or similar institutions. The sample also included 'rough sleepers';ONS Survey of Psychiatric Morbidity among Prisoners in England and Wales, 1997;Mental Health of Children and Adolescents in Great Britain, 1999;Psychiatric Morbidity among Adults Living in Private Households, 2000, which repeated the 1993 survey;Mental Health of Young People Looked After by Local Authorities in Great Britain, 2001-2002;Mental Health of Children and Young People in Great Britain, 2004; this survey repeated the 1999 surveyAdult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey, 2007; this survey repeated the 2000 private households survey. The Information Centre for Health and Social Care took over management of the survey in 2007.Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey, 2014: Special Licence Access; this survey repeated the 2000 and 2007 surveys. NHS Digital are now responsible for the surveys, which are now sometimes also referred to as the 'National Survey of Mental Health and Wellbeing'. Users should note that from 2014, the APMS is subject to more restrictive Special Licence Access conditions, due to the sensitive nature of the information gathered from respondents.Mental Health of Children and Young People in England, 2017: Special Licence; this survey repeated the 1999 and 2004 surveys, but only covering England. Users should note that this study is subject to more restrictive Special Licence Access conditions, due to the sensitive nature of the information gathered from respondents.The UK Data Service holds data from all the surveys mentioned above apart from the 1993-1994/2000 supplementary samples of people with psychosis. The Adult Psychiatric Morbidity Survey, 2007 (APMS 2007) is the third survey of psychiatric morbidity in adults living in private households. The main aim of the survey was to collect data on poor mental health among adults aged 16 and over living in private households in England. The specific objectives of the survey were:to estimate the prevalence of psychiatric morbidity according to diagnostic category in the adult household population of England. The survey included assessment of common mental disorders; psychosis; borderline and antisocial personality disorder; Asperger syndrome, substance misuse and dependency; and suicidal thoughts, attempts and self-harmto screen for characteristics of eating disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, and problem gamblingto examine trends in the psychiatric disorders that have been included in previous survey years (1993 and 2000) to identify the nature and extent of social disadvantage associated with mental illnessto gauge the level and nature of service use in relation to mental health problems, with an emphasis on primary care to collect data on key current and lifetime factors that might be associated with mental health problems, such as experience of stressful life events, abusive relationships, and work stressto collect data on factors that might be protective against poor mental health, such as social support networks and neighbourhood cohesion Further information can be found on the Information Centre for Health and Social Care survey web page. For the fourth edition (September 2017), three new weighting variables were added to the data, to be used for analysis when combining the 2007 and 2014 APMS datasets (the 2014 survey is not yet available from the UK Data Service). In addition, derived alcohol variables DVAudit1, AUDITgp, SADQCSC, SADQGP, AUDSAD2, AUDSAD3 and DRNKPROB were replaced to correct previous errors. The documentation has also been updated to cover these changes. Main Topics: Topics covered include: general health and health conditions; activities of daily living; caring responsibilities; service use and medication; self-perceived height and weight (for calculation of BMI); common mental disorders; suicidal behaviour and self-harm; psychosis screening questionnaire; attention deficit hyperactivity disorder; work related stress; smoking; drinking; drug use; personality disorder and social functioning; problem gambling; Asperger syndrome; post traumatic stress disorder and military experience; domestic violence and abuse; eating disorder; discrimination and sexual identity; intellectual functioning (TICS-M, National Adult Reading Test, Animal naming test); stressful life events; social support networks; parenting; religion and spirituality; social capital and participation; socio-demographics.

This data was collected as part of a Master of Research in Anthropology exploring the medicalisation of companion animals in Australia. Ethnographic data was collected along with interviews.The data set contains the transcripts of interviews conducted with individuals involved in animal-assisted therapy, who have a service animal, or believe their companion animals significantly impact their mental health.Further research outputs by Katherine Fletcher use this data to discuss the intersubjective relationships between humans and their companion animals, the complexities of these relationships, and the ethical considerations of using another lively social creature as an instrument of therapy.The data has been de-identified.Unspecified consent was obtained by the research participants for data to be used in future research projects.Data context:This data was collected in various locations of the Central Coast NSW Australia.This data was collected to answer a research question: What is the lived experience of people who utilise their relationship with companion species to better their mental health? This was an anthropological project and utilised ethnographic methods, observations and phenomenological theories.Abstract of masters thesis:In modern Australian society, viewing negative human experiences as pathological events is becoming increasingly common. Experiences of suffering, trauma, stress, poverty, neurodivergence and anxiety are conceptualised in terms of clinical disorders, treatable through medical interventions. Human interactions with companion animals have also been medicalised through animal-assisted therapy, service animals, and individually proclaimed ‘emotional support animals’. In the process, interactions with non-humans have been commodified, researched, and medically sanctioned for their utility for human mental health. Yet, while these companions play a hugely significant role in human lives, their relationship to human health is more complicated and ambiguous than clinical psychological models allow. Medical literature often reduces the agency, individualism, and contextual behaviour of non-human species in favour of finding a statistically significant connection between the reduction of pathological symptoms and various human-animal interactions. Critiquing this project, this thesis explores the experience of living, healing, and suffering with non-human companions through a phenomenological lens. It looks beyond clinical psychological models to explore the intersubjective encounters, lively responses, and inevitable conflicts between different social species. Interactions with companion species can allow people to view themselves from different perspectives and undergo animal-motivated self alteration. However, multispecies healing experiences are subjective. They involve an intersection of particular bonds between entities, the interests of the animals, and the attitudes and expectations of humans. Our shared mortality and sociality bind humans and our companion animals together but also create conflicts, existential suffering, and change.Data processing declaration:This data has been processed to ensure the anonymity of the research participants.Details such as names, ages, and locations have been omitted or changed.Some data has been intentionally left out as it cannot be anonymised and still reflect a true research context. This data includes details surrounding medical diagnosis, medication regimes, and specific event details.Please be aware that if you intend to use this data in your research, these anonymising details may change certain aspects of your research results.The words of participants remain as unchanged as possible to ensure the sentiment of their words and their experiences can be used accurately within other research projects.

The HealthLink BC Mental Health and Substance Use (MHSU) data set includes the following: Programs that offer early intervention, transitional care or other services that supplement and facilitate primary and adjunctive therapies; which offer community mental health education programs; or which link people who are in need of treatment with appropriate providers. Programs that provide preventive, diagnostic and treatment services in a variety of community and hospital-based settings to help people achieve, maintain and enhance a state of emotional well-being, personal empowerment and the skills to cope with everyday demands without excessive stress or reliance on alcohol or other drugs. Treatment may include emotional support, introspection and problem-solving assistance using a variety of modalities and approaches, and medication, as needed, for individuals who have a substance use disorder involving alcohol and/or other drugs or for people who range from experiencing difficult life transitions or problems in coping with daily living to those with severe, chronic mental illnesses that seriously impact their lives. Multidisciplinary programs, often offered on an inpatient basis with post-discharge outpatient therapy, that provide comprehensive diagnostic and treatment services for individuals who have anorexia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, bulimia or a related eating disorder. Treatment depends on the specific type of eating disorder involved but typically involves psychotherapy, nutrition education, family counseling, medication and hospitalization, if required, to stabilize the patient's health.

BackgroundSingle-session mental health interventions are frequently attended by children and young people (CYP) in both web-based and face-to-face therapy settings. The Session “Wants” and “Needs” Outcome Measure (SWAN-OM) is an instrument developed in a web-based therapy service to overcome the challenges of collecting outcomes and experiences of single-session therapies (SSTs). It provides pre-defined goals for the session, selected by the young person prior to the intervention, on which progress toward achievement is scored at the end of the session.ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to evaluate the instrument's psychometric properties, including concurrent validity against three other frequently used outcome and experience measures, at a web-based and text-based mental health service.MethodsThe SWAN-OM was administered for a period of 6 months to 1,401 CYP (aged 10–32 years; 79.3% white; 77.59% female) accessing SST on a web-based service. Item correlations with comparator measures and hierarchical logistic regressions to predict item selection were calculated for concurrent validity and psychometric exploration.ResultsThe most frequently selected items were “Feel better” (N = 431; 11.61%) and “Find ways I can help myself” (N = 411; 11.07%); unpopular items were “Feel safe in my relationships” (N = 53; 1.43%) and “Learn the steps to achieve something I want” (N = 58; 1.56%). The SWAN-OM was significantly correlated with the Experience of Service Questionnaire, particularly the item “Feel better” [rs(109) = 0.48, p < 0.001], the Youth Counseling Impact Scale, particularly the item “Learn the steps to achieve something I want” [rs(22) = 0.76, p < 0.001], and the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule, particularly the items “Learn how to feel better” [rs(22) = 0.72, p < 0.001] and “Explore how I feel” [rs(70) = −0.44, p < 0.001].ConclusionThe SWAN-OM demonstrates good concurrent validity with common measures of outcome and experience. Analysis suggests that lesser-endorsed items may be removed in future iterations of the measure to improve functionality. Future research is required to explore SWAN-OM's potential to measure meaningful change in a range of therapeutic settings.

Australia’s headspace initiative is world-leading in nation-wide youth mental healthcare reform for young people aged 12 to 25 years, now with 16 years of implementation. This paper examines changes in the key outcomes of psychological distress, psychosocial functioning, and quality of life for young people accessing headspace centres across Australia for mental health problems. Routinely collected data from headspace clients commencing an episode of care within the data collection period, 1 April 2019 to 30 March 2020, and at 90-day follow-up were analysed. Participants came from the 108 fully-established headspace centres across Australia, and comprised 58,233 young people aged 12–25 years first accessing headspace centres for mental health problems during the data collection period. Main outcome measures were self-reported psychological distress and quality of life, and clinician-reported social and occupational functioning. Most headspace mental health clients presented with depression and anxiety issues (75.21%). There were 35.27% with a diagnosis: overall, 21.74% diagnosed with anxiety, 18.51% with depression, and 8.60% were sub-syndromal. Younger males were more likely to present for anger issues. Cognitive behavioural therapy was the most common treatment. There were significant improvements in all outcome scores over time (P

The data is comprised of transcripts of conversations (approximately 45 minutes in length) that were conducted with mental health professionals. These professionals (therapists, clinical psychologists and doctors), as well as charity workers, were asked to critique concepts and prototypes from a digital design event that sought to create digital tools for individuals affected by self-harm.
The HealthLink BC Mental Health and Substance Use (MHSU) data set includes the following: Programs that offer early intervention, transitional care or other services that supplement and facilitate primary and adjunctive therapies; which offer community mental health education programs; or which link people who are in need of treatment with appropriate providers. Programs that provide preventive, diagnostic and treatment services in a variety of community and hospital-based settings to help people achieve, maintain and enhance a state of emotional well-being, personal empowerment and the skills to cope with everyday demands without excessive stress or reliance on alcohol or other drugs. Treatment may include emotional support, introspection and problem-solving assistance using a variety of modalities and approaches, and medication, as needed, for individuals who have a substance use disorder involving alcohol and/or other drugs or for people who range from experiencing difficult life transitions or problems in coping with daily living to those with severe, chronic mental illnesses that seriously impact their lives. Multidisciplinary programs, often offered on an inpatient basis with post-discharge outpatient therapy, that provide comprehensive diagnostic and treatment services for individuals who have anorexia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, bulimia or a related eating disorder. Treatment depends on the specific type of eating disorder involved but typically involves psychotherapy, nutrition education, family counseling, medication and hospitalization, if required, to stabilize the patient's health.
