    Mental health services in conflict areas - An experience from Libya
    (Elsevier, 2022) Shoib, S.; Baiou, A.; Saleem, S.M.; Chandradasa, M.; Gaffaz, R.
    The Libyan mental health system has long been seen as inefficient and insufficient for the demands of the country. Thousands of Libyans require mental health therapy now more than ever before. Libya's Ministry of Health has worked to improve access to mental health services. Despite international assistance, Libya continues to face issues due to stigma and a shortage of competent psychiatrists. The majority of Libyan individuals are unable to obtain private psychiatric care. This places the burden on the public sector to care for the majority's psychological pain and suffering and this needs to be addressed.
