Abstract
"The study, which is presented in the contribution, is carried out with the support of the Charles University Grant Agency in the Czech Republic. Its objective is to identify the obstacles that arise when carrying out daily parental activities of women with chronical mental illness, caring for a child or children under the age of 7. The women admitted to this study are diagnosed with mental illness in category F 00-99, are aged 19 to 49, and have their child or children in their own care, whether in a complete or incomplete family. The comparative sample consists of women-mothers without a mental health disorder. Both groups of women with comparable demographic characteristics participated in a questionnaire survey, the results of which are presented in the contribution. Subsequently, 22 women-mothers with a chronical mental illness will take part in semi-structured interviews, and the corresponding demographic sample of 22 women without a mental health disorder will again be used for the comparison. The results of the study will contribute to the knowledge of the needs of a numerically significant minority of women - mothers with mental health disorders, which is currently growing not only in the Czech Republic. From a psychosocial point of view, the results will also contribute to the destigmatization of these women."
