ABSTRACTThis paper presents a systematic review that assessed the different types of mental health programs and interventions available for young people from Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) backgrounds in Australia, and identified core elements of practice for supporting the mental health of CALD youth, and key barriers that preclude CALD youth from engaging with mental health services. A total of 19 articles met inclusion criteria and a total of six distinct practices were identified: (1) personalization, identity and recognition of trauma; (2) creative expression; (3) cultural competence; (4) self-efficacy and empowerment; (5) social connections and relationships; and (6) information and content delivery. Key barriers related to engagement with CALD youth mental health programs included language and literacy barriers, stigma and shame, and service providers’ limited cultural competency, and lack of diverse understandings of wellbeing. The findings from this review suggest several avenues for ensuring practice that effectively meets the unique mental health needs of CALD young people and reduces barriers to their access and engagement.KEYWORDS: CALDAustraliaculturally and linguistically diversemental healthpracticeyoung people Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Supplementary materialSupplemental data for this article can be accessed online at https://doi.org/10.1080/15332985.2023.2273227.

ABSTRACTCurrent understanding of the expressions of people who have lived experiences of mental illness on social media about mental health services is limited, particularly relating to state-wide variations in these services. We examine whether associations exist between the availability of mental health services, Medicaid expansion, poverty, and sentiments expressed on Twitter by people who have social media markers that indicate their direct experience with mental health disorders. Statistically significant negative associations were found between the normalized Twitter sentiments and SAMSHA counts of mental health services reported for each of the 50 States from 2016 to 18 and Medicaid expansion status. The findings indicate that limited access to mental health services, which is often compounded in states that have not participated in Medicaid expansion, manifests itself on Twitter discussions around issues of mental health.KEYWORDS: mental health servicessocial media dataTwitter sentiments Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).

This article reviews the nature and prevalence of nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) and suggests how it can be better recognized and treated in the mental health community. Throughout history, NSSI has been a core element of many types of rituals (e.g. cultural, religious, spiritual, and healing rituals) and is now also regarded as a pathological expression of emotional pain, particularly in Western cultures, where its occurrence has increased dramatically since the 1980s. NSSI involves the direct and deliberate self-infliction of bodily harm without suicidal intent. Self-injury can be viewed as a distinct mental health disorder, a defining criterion of other mental disorders, or a transient response to trauma or stress. Notwithstanding its etiology, NSSI should become a more salient aspect of psychiatric evaluation and intervention considering its frequency of occurrence and deleterious consequences, especially among young people. The current article consists of six sections that describe the terminology associated with NSSI; its general prevalence, measurement, and variability (age, race, and gender); its relationship with other psychiatric illness; and its diagnosis and treatment.

The study aims to describe the perceptions that trauma-exposed older people hold about how Eye Movement Integration therapy (EMI) facilitates their processing of trauma symptoms. Ten older persons participated in a qualitative interview to review their perceptions of the therapy, combined with pre- and post-intervention quantitative checklists of trauma symptoms. The results show improvements in most trauma symptoms for most participants. Older persons perceived EMI as helpful in alleviating trauma symptoms. Further research into EMI is warranted to verify the results of this study, with a view to increasing affordable access to mental health services for trauma among older persons.

ABSTRACT This study utilized a U.S. national dataset of sexual and gender minority youth (SGMY) to examine the relationships between gender identity, sexual orientation, and overeating. Results indicate transgender/gender diverse (TGD) youth had a greater risk for overeating than their cisgender counterparts. Youth who identified their sexual orientation as queer, pansexual, or questioning were found to have greater odds of overeating compared to transgender/gender diverse (TGD) straight youth. Among ethno-racial identities, Asian SGMY had the lowest rates of overeating, while Native American and Middle Eastern/Arab SGMY presented the highest rates. Exercise and stress were explored as covariates, along with demographic factors.
