title: Mental health. Heads and tales.
abstract: Interviews conducted by other users can be a successful means of capturing mental health users' views on services. In this study, more than a third of those with severe mental health problems considered themselves over-medicated, and many wanted more 'talking therapies'. More than three-quarters were satisfied with their community psychiatric nurse but under half were satisfied with their consultant. A fifth did not know how to get help in a crisis.
