“…Patients with mental illness in China stated that work-related stress and discontinuation of medication are the main reasons for the relapse of their disease. 11 In France, patients who had been ill for more than ten years had a higher risk of disease relapse compared to those who had been ill for less than 5 years. 12 In Ethiopia, patients who had been suffering from bipolar disorder for more than 5 years faced a higher risk of disease relapse.…”

Objective: Relapse is a challenge for patients with severe mental illness (SMI). The purpose of present study was to explain the health care team’s perception of social factors affecting SMI relapse. Methods: In this qualitative content analysis study, semi-structured interviews have been conducted with 23 members of healthcare team. Content analysis was used to categorize the data. Results: The social factors affecting the relapse of SMI could be classified in three categories of community-related factors, cultural factors, and family-related factors. The first category included low socioeconomic status, lack of community support for SMI patients, and insufficient awareness of community about SMI. The second category included false beliefs and misconceptions, and negative attitudes towards SMI. The third category also included dysfunctional family and non-supportive family. Conclusion: In order to deal with cultural misconceptions that lead to the relapse of SMI, it is necessary to implement culture-based interventions to correctly confront negative attitudes and stigmatized beliefs and fight against cultural taboos that govern the phenomenon of SMI relapse in Iran. It seems that the implementation of family-centered interventions for the family of patients with SMI can reduce the burden of family-related factors in disease relapse.

“…Therefore, the relationship between recurrence risk perception and health behavior is unclear for the time being. A patient's recurrence risk perception depends not only on himself, but also on those close to them [24], such as family members, support groups, non-physician healthcare personnel, and educational material that could modify their recurrence risk perception [25]. Namely, social support is effective to improve recurrence risk perception as an extrinsic support factor [26].…”

Background Health behavior is a crucial tool for secondary stroke prevention. However, stroke patients have low health behavior. Understanding the factors associated with health behavior influence them is essential to improve their health behavior.Objectives To explore the association between perceived social support and health behavior among stroke patients and the mediating role of recurrence risk perception in this relationship.Methods 254 stroke patients were investigated from June 2021 to August 2021. Demographics, recurrence risk perception of stroke scale, perceived social support scale (PSSS), and health behavior scale for stroke patients (HBS-SP) were used. Correlation analysis was used to examine the relationship between the three variables. The PROCESS macro was used to conduct the mediation analysis. The study was compliant with the STROBE checklist.Results The valid questionnaires were 250 (effective response rate: 98.4%). High recurrence risk perception and high perceived social support were associated with better health behavior (all P < 0.001). Recurrence risk perception mediated the relationship between perceived social support and health behavior. The mediating effect was 18.55% of the total effect (0.137/0.737).Conclusion Perceived social support and recurrence risk perception are promoters of health behavior. Furthermore, the effect of perceived social support on health behavior was partly mediated by recurrence risk perception. Thus, to facilitate long-lasting health behavior, it is vital to provide social support or knowledge of recurrence risk for stroke patients.Practice implications: Healthcare workers and family members can help stroke patients build confidence in the recovery, establish the accurate perception of recurrence risk and improve their health behavior by providing them with multifaceted social support.
