This problem is exacerbated for immigrants with temporary legal statuses. Less is known about how they navigate barriers to receiving care for mental health needs and how they cope with these barriers. One form of temporary status, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, offers limited benefits to eligible undocumented young adults-providing increased access to healthcare services and insurance opportunities for some through college or work. However, these opportunities are conditional, predicated on the continuance of a program constantly at risk of termination. While DACA is generally considered a form of stability and privilege within the context of irregular legal statuses, it comes with its own stressors including additional responsibilities and the instability of the program. Drawing on the concept of <i>liminal legality</i>, we illustrate how 51 young adults with DACA navigate barriers to accessing and receiving mental healthcare services using reflexive thematic analysis. Our findings offer insight into the pivotal role of support networks in healthcare-seeking behaviors and highlight the importance of communication support among close others. Findings offer suggestions for future research exploring the mental healthcare-seeking behaviors of temporary migrants in the United States and implications for policy changes.</p>","PeriodicalId":48437,"journal":{"name":"Qualitative Health Research","volume":" ","pages":"10497323251330219"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144080478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Understanding mechanisms of discrimination is a prerequisite for developing suitable measures to address them. Intersectionality, a framework rooted in Black feminism, has proven to be a powerful tool for understanding the specific forms and experiences of discrimination within interconnected systems of oppression. This study is the first to use an intersectional lens to examine discriminatory practices within the German mental healthcare system from the perspectives of service users, providers, and psychosocial counselors. In collaboration with local organizations in Bochum, Germany, we conducted 17 semi-structured interviews. The data were analyzed according to constructed grounded theory methodology. Our results indicate that discriminatory practices undermine access to and quality of healthcare delivery for marginalized mental healthcare service users. On an interpersonal level, these practices included stereotyping, devaluation, Othering, invalidation, silencing, withholding information, and treatment refusals. On an organizational level, care was undermined by a lack of interpretation services, discriminatory admission practices and documentation procedures, a lack of competencies among mental healthcare providers, as well as suitable treatment options and environments for marginalized service users. Service users described various strategies to navigate mental healthcare, including confrontation and selective narration. Mental healthcare providers showed various reactions toward discriminatory practices, ranging from defensiveness to acknowledgment.

The three-step theory of suicide posits that three overarching contributors comprise suicide capability: acquired (fearlessness about death and high pain tolerance), dispositional (genetics), and practical (knowledge and access to lethal means) capability. Although extensive research has investigated relationships between individual contributors of capability and suicide attempts, little research has considered how an individual's capability for suicide develops as a combination of contributors. Given suicide is multifaceted and complex, our understanding of capability development is relatively limited. This potentially negatively impacts prevention and capacity reduction-focused intervention efficacy. Therefore, this study aimed to explore how suicide capability develops. Fourteen community-based suicide attempt survivors were recruited using convenience sampling. Individual narratives were collected using open-ended interviews, and data were analysed using narrative analysis. Results indicated that participant narratives contained two elements. The first included how capability development and suicide attempt facilitation were often underpinned by the relational interplay between acquired and practical contributors. For example, participants without a high pain tolerance seeking attempt methods that were perceived to be painless. The second element contained a novel finding relating to the agentic role of participants when deciding and attempting suicide. Agency was revealed within and across narratives emphasising the active role the individual plays in their movement from ideation-to-action. The role of individual agency in coming to a decision to take one's own life and then acting warrants further consideration within contemporary suicide theories.</p>","PeriodicalId":48437,"journal":{"name":"Qualitative Health Research","volume":" ","pages":"589-600"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12041613/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141447382","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
