Reason For Admission

The association between violence and mental illness is well-studied, yet remains highly controversial. Currently, there appears to be a trend of increasing violence in state hospital settings, including both civilly and forensically committed populations. In fact, physical aggression is the primary reason for admission to many state hospitals. Given that violence is now often both a reason for admission and a barrier to discharge, there is a case to be made for psychiatric violence to be re-conceptualized dimensionally, as a primary syndrome, not as the byproduct of one. Furthermore, treatment settings need to be enhanced to address the new types of violence exhibited in inpatient environments, and this modification needs to be geared toward balancing safety with treatment.

Constructive Engagement

Taking the Middle East as an example, we explore ways to empower service users and carers. Resources are required for the introduction of community mental health systems and the development of tailor-made psychoeducation, both of which need to be culturally and historically sensitive. A further aim should be the sustained and constructive engagement of families in caring for relatives who have a mental illness, in the community.
