Mental health, including widespread depression, a high suicide rate
and institutionalisation, is a major problem in Japan. At the same
time, the mental health care system in Japan has historically been
more restrictive than elsewhere in the world. This book looks at
the challenges of mental health care in Japan, including problems
such as the institutionalisation of long-term patients in mental
hospitals. The book discusses the latest legislation to deal with
mental health care, and explores the various ideas and practices
concerning rehabilitation into the workforce, the community and
service user groups that empower the mentally ill. It goes on to
look at the social stigma attached to the mentally ill in Japan and
Britain, which touches upon the issue of counselling those with
post traumatic stress after the recent earthquake.
