description | Data obtained via structured interviews from members of 62 families in Malaysia & Zimbabwe are drawn on to describe the survival strategies, social support, & needs of families caring for mentally ill members. In both countries, families feel isolated, ill informed, & bereft of support, yet their needs are similar to the needs of families in developed countries. Myths surrounding the role of the extended family as a source of material & moral support are questioned. Results show how important it is for mental health systems to improve helping networks if families are to remain the primary providers of care in the community. 9 Tables, 21 References.
