Abstract

Temeljeći se na relevantnoj literaturi, istraživanjima te podacima o kliničkim iskustvima i osobnim uvjerenjima prikupljenima polustrukturiranim intervjuima trojice anonimnih kazivača psihijatrijske struke, ovaj diplomski rad istražuje dva vida problema s kojima se pojedinci oboljeli od shizofrenije svakodnevno suočavaju. Uz samu bolest kao primarni izazov, osobe oboljele od shizofrenije često se suočavaju s popratnim problemom stigmatizacije. Neshvaćena je simptomatologija ovog ozbiljnog, kroničnog psihičkog poremećaja rezultirala neosnovanim uvjerenjima negativnih konotacija o nemogućnosti liječenja i opasnosti oboljelih osoba. Cilj je ovog diplomskog rada ukazati i pobliže opisati navedene probleme kroz prizmu iskustava liječnika psihijatrijske specijalizacije te istaknuti nužnost procesa destigmatizacije, kojim će se pospješiti mogućnost liječenja oboljelih osoba bez dodatnog negativnog utjecaja okoline na njihovo psihičko zdravlje.

Abstract (english)

Based on relevant literature, research, and data on clinical experiences and personal beliefs collected through semi-structured interviews of three anonymous informants from the psychiatric profession, this thesis explores two types of problems that individuals with schizophrenia face on a daily basis. Alongside the illness itself as the primary challenge, people with schizophrenia often encounter the accompanying problem of stigmatization. The misunderstood symptomatology of this serious, chronic mental disorder has resulted in unfounded beliefs with negative connotations about the impossibility of treatment and the danger posed by affected individuals. The aim of this thesis is to highlight and further describe these issues through the lens of experiences from psychiatric specialists and to emphasize the necessity of the destigmatization process enhancing the potential for treating affected individuals without additional negative impact from the environment on their mental health.
