“…Still, the ability of adolescents to access reliable and valuable information is affected by their lack of mental health literacy and a lack of knowledge regarding which resources to look for [18]. Mental health literacy recognizes mental health problems and adolescents' knowledge about the causes, risks, symptoms, effective treatment and expertise in seeking information on MHS with professional health workers [19], [20]. Adolescents think they can rely on themselves when facing mental health disorders [21].…”

Insufficient knowledge and information about mental health hinders the optimal use of adolescent mental health services. This qualitative case study aims to describe the utilization of adolescent mental health services (MHS) from the perspective of healthcare providers in primary health care (PHC). The primary informants were psychologists and youth care health services (YCHS) coordinators, while the triangulated informants comprised adolescents; they were selected using the purposive sampling technique. This research employs primary data collected through focus group discussions with the primary informants and in-depth interviews with the triangulated informants. The study results reported that there is no PHC providing MHS specifically designed for adolescents. Further, as low mental health literacy and stigma from parents were identified as challenges, peer support was detected to be the reinforcing factors for adolescents to access MHS. Hence, mental health literacy must be integrated into the school curriculum so that adolescent self-diagnosis does not occur.

“…Ada peningkatan jumlah menjadi 7 per mil rumah tangga, yang artinya per 1.000 rumah tangga terdapat 7 rumah tangga dengan orang dengan gangguan jiwa (ODGJ) sehingga jumlahnya diperkirakan sekitar 450 ribu ODGJ berat. Kondisi buruk seperti itu masih diperberat lagi dengan rendahnya literasi kesehatan mental pada dewasa awal yang sering ditemukan di negaranegara berpenghasilan rendah dan menengah, termasuk Indonesia (Asyanti & Karyani, 2018).…”

Literasi kesehatan mental masyarakat yang rendah menyebabkan kondisi kesehatan mental kurang dilaporkan dan tidak terdiagnosis. Hal ini meningkatkan gangguan yang tidak tertangani, morbiditas, mortalitas, peningkatan stres serta kasus bunuh diri. Ketidakmampuan seseorang dalam mengenali gangguan mental diduga berkaitan dengan berkurangnya kemungkinan mencari bantuan. Penelitian terdahulu menyatakan bahwa mahasiswa merupakan kelompok terendah dalam mencari bantuan. Oleh sebab itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara literasi kesehatan mental dengan intensi mencari bantuan pada mahasiswa. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode survei. Sampel dalam penelitian ini meliputi 111 partisipan yang merupakan mahasiswa berusia antara 18-25 tahun di Indonesia. Pengukuran dalam penelitian ini menggunakan skala Mental Health Literacy (MHL) dan skala General Help-Seeking Questionnaire (GHSQ). Analisis dilakukan dengan uji korelasi Spearman's rho pada JAMOVI 2.3.0.0 for macOS. Hasil analisis pada penelitian ini adalah tidak ditemukannya bukti yang dapat mengonfirmasi keberadaan hubungan antara literasi kesehatan mental dengan intensi mencari bantuan (r=0,034; p=0,727).

“…Inadequate mental health literacy in adolescents, often identified in LMICs including Indonesia [15] significantly increases the risk of developing moderate-severe depression [13]. Encouragingly, adolescents demonstrate a strong preference for peer and family support over professional help-seeking strategies, suggesting that universal mental health literacy programs may have benefit for both primary and secondary disease prevention [16].…”

Background Depression and anxiety are two of the leading causes of disease burden in low-to-middle income coutnries. The World Health Organisation has engaged in a programme of scaling-up mental health services, but significant challenges remain. Improving mental health literacy in children and young people, a core part of recent, global health strategies has the potential to address some of these challenges. The study aims to co-develop and feasibility test, a culturally-appropriate toolkit to promote depression and anxiety focused mental health literacy and self-management skills in Indonesia, for children aged 11–15 years. Methods A mixed methods study comprising four phases. Through a systematic review of existing evidence, phase 1 will review approaches to improve mental health literacy and self-management in South East Asia and critically review current evidence regarding intervention effect. Phase 2 will explore stakeholders’ views on depression, anxiety and mental health more broadly and identify priorities for the intervention through the use of semi-structured interviews and/or focus groups with policy makers, clinicians, teachers, adolescent service users, carers and young people aged 11–15. Phase 3 will comprise iterative workshops with local stakeholders to present our findings and co-produce a testable, culturally appropriate toolkit to promote mental health literacy and depression/anxiety focused self-management in 11–15 year olds in Java, Indonesia. Phase 4 comprises feasibility evaluation of our developed intervention via nine in-depth case studies (Jakarta, Bogor and Magelang). We will examine the impact, acceptability and feasibility of our prototype intervention and produce evidence-based guidelines for wider implementation. Discussion Tools to support mental health literacy and self-management are a low cost way in which mental health services in LMICs can attempt to address the burden of anxiety and depression amongst children and young people. However, this is an underexplored area in Indonesia. Working closely with local stakeholders, this study will design and undertake feasibility evaluation of co-produced mental health literacy and anxiety and depression focussed interactive self-management tools.
