“…This may deter them from seeking subsequent help (Henderson et al, 2013). It has been reported that women generally fear to be called "attention-seeking" or "dramatic" if they reach out for help (Taylor, 2022). However, it is important to point out that our ndings only indicate intention and not the actual help-seeking behaviour, and that we did not measure their past help-seeking behaviour to con rm this speculation.…”

Suicide is a significant concern globally, although research among adolescents in low- and middle-income countries remains scarce. This study aims to investigate gender differences and the factors that can contribute to Vietnamese adolescents’ intention to seek help when experiencing suicidal thoughts. A total of 2,976 adolescents reported their level of suicidal ideation, suicide literacy, attitudes toward suicidal individuals, and preferred sources of help. One third of them experienced suicidal ideation. Mean suicide literacy was generally low but was lower in males. Low suicide literacy also correlated with higher level of suicide stigmatization, and males reported more stigmatization towards suicidal individuals. As expected, adolescents sought help from families and friends more than from professionals. Contrasting to our hypothesis, being male, having more stigma, and less suicidal ideation predicted more help seeking intention. The results of this study highlight the importance of careful suicide prevention and intervention strategies for this population.

“…Participants with BPD complained that they felt humiliated when they were accused of attention seeking. Some argue that this is a misconception among mental health professionals ( 64 ).

IntroductionThe opinions of service users and carers are crucial to identifying ways to innovate and implement system change. This study aims to explore the views and experiences of service users and carerson the services they have used for their mental health challenges and their suggestions for service reform.MethodsTwenty participants (15 carers and 5 service users) were interviewed for the study.ResultsEight categories emerged from the data. They were: Several gaps in the system, Barriers to accessing services, Services are not fit for purpose, Services operate in isolation, System is not person focused, Service users and carers are treated poorly, Services are overloaded and under resourced and Recommendations for service reform. Respondents reported that a persistent lack of funding and resources for mental health services was a main cause of these shortcomings. Respondents also noted that innovations were needed to re-orient services to enable continuity of care, and training of mental health professionals was needed for a better understanding of the needs of service users and their carers.DiscussionAdditional research is needed with larger and more diverse samples to further explore these findings.
