Medical Students Attitudes Towards Mental Health Disclosure: A Qualitative Study

Ryan Christy

The aim of this research project was to obtain and explore the perceptions of medical students at the University of Glasgow surrounding mental health and its disclosure. In 2013, the GMC conducted research in order to advise medical schools on how best they can support students withmental health concerns and produced a document outlining how medical schools must play a role in supporting their students and giving advice to symptomatic students (Grant, et. 2013). A common theme running through many of the beliefs held by medical students in previous studies, was the stigma surrounding mental health and help-seeking (as per Erving Goffman 1963) (Tyler, et. 2018; Dahlin, et al. 2005; Afsar, et al. 2015; Billingsley, 2019; Winter, et al. 2017).
