How can we heal a broken U.S. mental health system? That’s the question #SMU faculty member Neely Myers addresses in this recent Authority Magazine article. Myers is a psychological and medical anthropologist with over 20 years of research on the ways the US mental health care system treats individuals experiencing psychosis and trauma. Her forthcoming book, "Breaking Points: Youth Mental Health Crises and How We All Can Help", is based on ethnographic research that has been funded nearly continuously by the National Institutes of Health since 2009.    https://lnkd.in/gdnQGQfp   #mentalhealth #mentalhealthcare

The 2024 Alive NationalMental Health Lived-Experience Priorities Study for young people living with mental ill-health (aged 16-25) and their carers, family, or kinship groups is now active!

This year, they have decided to offer more than the usual survey and co-design, and you get to choose how you would like to take part. There are four different participation methods to help generate and prioritize mental health research topics: an online survey, photo interviews, emotion mapping, and crowdsourcing.
