Involuntary psychiatric hospitalisation, stigma stress and recovery: a 2-year study

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Stigma stress may have a lasting detrimental effect on recovery among people with mental illness and a history of involuntary hospitalisation. Anti-stigma interventions that reduce stigma stress and programs that enhance empowerment could improve recovery. Future research should test the effect of such interventions on recovery.
