Guelph professor cites importance of friends Family and friends play an impor- tant role both in keeping us physical- ly and pnentally healthy and in help- ing us cope with illness when it does occur. Guelph psychology professor Benjamin Gottlieb is interested in the way professionals can encourage these social networks, including self- help groups, to contribute even more in helping people overcome life's problems. Gottlieb says most troubled people first seek help by turning to their own social networks - their friends and relatives. Studies have shown that acute life stresses, such as the death of a loved one, job loss or divorce, and major turning points in people's lives, such as becoming a parent or retiring, are often followed by mental or physical illness. An accomulation of stresses seems to increase a person's vulnerability to diseases. Interaction with friends and family, however can help protect health and prevent the onset of depression or other illness. The functions of the social network include informal diagnosis, referral, support and aftercare, Gottlieb says. People use.their networks as sounding boards to make sense of the way they feel and to obtain an informal" diagnosis. Networks give them an idea of the seriousness of their pro- blems and help them decide whether further help is needed. He says peo- ple are often unaware they have pro- blems until friends and family let them know something is wrong by saying, "you're just no yourself". Studies that have examined peo- ple's physical health in relation to their participation in social networks and involvement in the community found that people with greater social contacts had death rates two to three times lower than those with few social contacts. Another study found that people who use their social networks remain mentally healthy despite stressful situations. Gottlieb says the self-help move- ment, now flourishing in North America, is a prime example of infor- mal support. There is barely an af- flication that doesn't have a mutual aid self-help grop formed around it, he says. Groups exist for both suf- ferers and their families - a ex- ample is AA for alcoholics, Mon for spouses and Alateen figr dren. Gottlieb says people nee4to affiliate with others who are in the 'Same boat. It's not just that misery buts com- pany, but that "misery benefits from, miserable he explains. Professionals now portance of informal social and use them to treat their tients, says Gottlieb. A physi example, might organize a heart attack victims in the hosp they can support each other long professional contact ends.
