Ref.:  (LML) Common mental disorders: what really works

 

 

From:  Joel Almeida, London and Mumbai

 

Dear Pieter and colleagues,

 

There is wide acceptance of the fact that common mental disorders (e.g. anxiety, depression) can be brought on or aggravated by social exclusion, job loss, disfigurement, repeated painful episodes, reinfection, amputation, disruption of relationships, eviction, homelessness, destitution and the many other disadvantages that too often accompany a diagnosis of "leprosy". 

 

Those keen on quality care for persons with HD or its sequelae might find this document interesting.

 What science has shown can help young people with anxiety and depression  

 

It is likely to be relevant to all age groups. Increasing competence tends to be reflected in better outcomes for those being served.

 

Best,

 

Joel Almeida
