Cover Story: In recent years, there has been a fundamental shift in healthcare towards shared decision making (SDM). This study explores the perspective of individuals affected by mental illness and their family members, as well as the needs, barriers and facilitators of SDM based on fifteen telephone interviews. The results indicate that there is a strong desire for SDM. Barriers are potentially modifiable and a variety of approaches for interventions in the psychiatric sector could be identified. As stigmatization is a significant barrier to SDM, destigmatization should be increased. Peer support, self-help associations and psychosocial counseling services could promote empowerment and strengthen recovery. This study also demonstrates the importance of understanding SDM as a process that should begin at the diagnostic phase. View this paper
