Abstract

Our paper describes the process of creating a stakeholder group for service development and research in Post-partum Psychosis (PP) at a Perinatal Psychiatry Service in India. We involved women who have recovered from PP as `experts by experience’ in identifying areas that need attention from a research and service perspectives. A total of 13 group meetings were conducted, in which 9 group meetings involved women with lived experiences of PP and 4 group meetings were with the family members involved in the care of women during the PP episode. Of the 58 participants, 23 women and two family members expressed their willingness to participate in future stakeholder meetings. Involvement of women with PP and their caregivers as stakeholders in mental health decision-making appears feasible in a LMIC setting and should be encouraged.
