Summary

This chapter examines the importance of family, social networks, social capital, and personal safety to people with mental health conditions and how these are often missing from their lives and replaced by social isolation and loneliness. For people with mental health conditions, social contacts and levels of support play a role in the genesis of their conditions as well as their recovery. People with mental ill-health often lack access to some forms of social capital but may benefit from the buffering effects of other forms. Social interaction may be curtailed by the subjective experiences of the mental health conditions, but also from the stigma and discrimination experienced by people with mental health conditions as personal experience of or fear of crime, aggression, and persecution. These are experiences that can set up a vicious cycle of loneliness and depression and exclusion for social contacts and important sources of support. These mental health and social conditions are unevenly distributed and exacerbated by the nature of the physical and social conditions of neighbourhoods. Whilst communities can be supportive, they may also present unacceptable risks to vulnerable groups in the form of crimes and victimisation.
