The International Journal of Mental Health and Addictions (IJMH) offers a forum for up-to-date information and developments in mental health and addiction-related research, policy, etiology, literature reviews, and prevention and treatment. Our scope includes mental health, substance addictions, behavioral addictions, and concurrent mental health and addictive disorders. Through publishing high-quality peer-reviewed articles, it is our aim to seek and lead an international debate on mental health and addiction-related issues, and to help make sense of how mental health, addiction, and their comorbidities affect individuals, families, and societies. The journal offers broad-ranging coverage in such fields as psychology, sociology, anthropology, criminology, public health, psychiatry, history, and law and publishes feature articles, review articles, clinical notes, research notes, letters to the editor, and commentaries. We publish 6 issues a year. The IJMH presents three subsections: (i) mental health; (ii) addictions and (iii) psychometric analysis/validation studies about mental health and addictions instruments. We also take into consideration the diversity/balance of subjects, region and authorship. Some main topics are: Social determinants of mental health/well-being; Workplace and mental health; Mental health and addictions in educational settings; Digital mental health resources; Community-based and recovery-oriented practice and mental health/addictions services; Harm Reduction; Mental health and addictions related stigma. We welcome the submission of manuscripts for publication by researchers, clinicians, educators, frontline workers, other allied health professionals, policy makers, people with lived and living experience, and community stakeholders.
