The National Work Group on Literacy and Health recommends that patient-oriented literature should be written at or below a sixth-grade level. However, 88% of the websites are written above a 9th-grade and are difficult to read. The majority of YouTube videos were from private agencies, in contrast to government agencies. Most content describes clinical symptoms, with 50% validating ICD/DSM criteria. However, less than 50% detailed onset, prognosis, or course of illness.

Data were analysed thematically.Results: Fourteen carers were interviewed for the study. Twelve of them (86%) cared for their own adult children and 8 (57%) had been in the caring role for over 10 years. Five categories emerged from the data. They were: (1) The responsibility for caring falls on the carer, (2) Caring is exhausting work, (3) Carers are secondary consumers, (4) Carers have specific needs and (5) What carers want.Conclusion: Family carers have no reasonable alternative but to take over the responsibility of caring. Caring is exhausting work and carers struggle to cope with the challenges of caring to the point where they become mentally unwell themselves. Therefore, carers need to be treated as secondary consumers.","PeriodicalId":48135,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mental Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145076457","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given the influence of online discourse on public attitudes, understanding which diagnoses attract the most scepticism and what conversational themes surround these concerns is important in understanding lay controversies in mental health.Methods: We used topic modelling using Latent Dirichlet allocation, a natural language processing technique, to analyse over 850,000 forum posts from August 2020 to December 2022 to identify the main topics.Results: Topic modelling identified 15 topics, of which several identified specific disorders: anxiety, depression, OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder), ADHD (attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder), autism, Tourette's syndrome and tics, and DID (dissociative identity disorder). Other topics included faking and attention-seeking, school and childhood context, trauma and abuse, validity of self-diagnosis, medical research evidence, gender identity and sexuality, profanity, and sarcasm-laden commentary.Conclusions: This scepticism does not mirror previously identified public doubts about the legitimacy of specific diagnoses and seems to more commonly focus on conditions that have seen a recent increase in diagnosis in young people.","PeriodicalId":48135,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mental Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145055884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
