| Summary, etc |
Domestic violence is one of the leading factors that drive its survivors towards severe mental health problems even leading to suicides in some cases. Several national and international organisations working on social outcomes for mentally ill survivors have noted that poor outcomes are due to factors like patriarchal attitudes, abysmal health infrastructure and poor quality of treatments. This paper is a study of the social outcomes achieved by survivors of domestic violence suffering from mental distress by using five concepts of the capability approach. Select survivors of the mental health support programme implemented by the Government of Gujarat and supported by voluntary organisations are interviewed that give insights into the ways in which the social outcomes of survivors could be improved by using the capabilities approach rather than that using the one based on established dominant norms. The findings have implications for health professionals and mental health systems as a whole in that they ought to pay attention to the agency and capabilities of survivors to help them first achieve a minimum threshold of well-being and strive for more valued social outcomes. – Reproduced |
