title: [The user perspective studied by users of psychiatric institutions].
abstract: The perspective of users of psychiatric services has mostly been studied by professional researchers. In this study a group of users investigated subjective quality of life, assessment of psychiatric treatment and needs of other users. A special questionnaire was constructed and used. Psychiatric institutions were assessed as being on average good to satisfactory; satisfaction with different life domains was fairly good; needs for support varied very much.
