According to the World Health Organization’s World Health
Report 2001, one family in four worldwide has at least one member
currently suffering from a mental disorder. This disorder often
remains undiagnosed and untreated, but the behaviour of the ill
person usually has a significant impact on the quality of life of
the family and on the mental health of the other members of the
family, and generates feelings of shame, guilt, helplessness and
despair.
This book provides a comprehensive picture of currently
available evidence about the specific characteristics of the burden
on the families of people with the various mental disorders, the
coping strategies which increase or decrease this burden, the
family interventions of proven efficacy, and what should be said
and what should not be said to the relatives of people with the
various conditions.
