Today, with the development of technology, the concept of the virtual world is gaining more and more importance. "Metaverse", which has become popular in recent years, aims to provide an environment where people can interact, do business, have fun and even live in the digital world. Metaverse, which has become increasingly popular in recent years, offers many different uses in the field of mental health. However, we do not yet have enough information about the effects of this technology on mental health. The effect of Metaverse on mental health has been the subject of many researches that it can be used in areas such as the treatment of psychological disorders, stress reduction, self-confidence, and development of social interaction skills. The biggest advantage of using Metaverse for psychiatric treatment is that the virtual world is separated from the real world. Therefore, the stress, anxiety and other emotional reactions experienced during treatment have no real-life consequences. In addition, the therapist is easier to access in the virtual world and can help patients adapt to treatment more easily. However, the use of Metaverse for psychiatric treatment also has some disadvantages. For example, this method of treatment may be an unrealistic experience for some patients and not effective enough for others. Also, this treatment modality has limited accessibility as it requires high cost equipment and technology. In particular, there has not been enough research on the relationship between the use of Metaverse in the diagnosis and treatment of psychiatric diseases. More research is needed on the effect of Metaverse on mental health. In particular, more studies are needed on its long-term effects and effects on different people. In this review, studies investigating the potential relationship between Metaverse technology and psychiatry and how this technology can be used in the psychiatric field are reviewed.

Metaverse ve Psikiyatri: Bir Gözden Geçirme

Günümüzde teknolojinin gelişimiyle birlikte sanal dünya kavramı giderek önem kazanmaktadır. Son yıllarda popüler hale gelen "Metaverse" ise, dijital dünyada insanların sanal olarak etkileşimde bulunabilecekleri, iş yaptığı, eğlendiği ve hatta yaşadığı bir ortam sunmayı hedeflemektedir. Son yıllarda giderek popülerleşen Metaverse, ruh sağlığı alanında da birçok farklı kullanım alanı sunmaktadır. Ancak, bu teknolojinin ruh sağlığı üzerindeki etkileri hakkında henüz yeterli bilgiye sahip değiliz. Metaverse'in ruh sağlığı üzerindeki etkisi, psikolojik rahatsızlıkların tedavisi, stres azaltma, özgüven kazandırma, sosyal etkileşim becerilerinin geliştirilmesi gibi alanlarda kullanılabileceği yönünde birçok araştırmaya konu olmuştur. Metaverse'in psikiyatrik tedavi için kullanımının en büyük avantajı, sanal dünyanın gerçek dünyadan ayrılmış olmasıdır. Bu nedenle, tedavi sırasında yaşanan stres, kaygı ve diğer duygusal tepkilerin gerçek hayatta olabilecek sonuçları yoktur. Ayrıca, sanal dünyada terapiste erişim daha kolaydır ve hastaların tedaviye daha kolay uyum sağlamalarına yardımcı olabilir. Ancak, Metaverse'in psikiyatrik tedavi için kullanımının bazı dezavantajları da vardır. Örneğin, bu tedavi yöntemi bazı hastalar için gerçeklikten kopuk bir deneyim olabilir ve bazıları için de yeterince etkili olmayabilir. Ayrıca, bu tedavi yöntemi, yüksek maliyetli ekipman ve teknoloji gerektirdiğinden, erişilebilirliği sınırlıdır. Özellikle psikiyatrik hastalıkların tanı ve tedavisinde Metaverse kullanımıyla ilişkisi hakkında yeterli araştırma yapılmamıştır. Metaverse'in ruh sağlığı üzerindeki etkisi hakkında daha fazla araştırmaya ihtiyaç vardır. Özellikle, uzun vadeli etkileri ve farklı insanlar üzerindeki etkileri konusunda daha fazla çalışma yapılması gerekmektedir. Bu derlemede, Metaverse teknolojisi ile psikiyatri arasındaki potansiyel ilişkiyi inceleyerek, bu teknolojinin psikiyatrik alanda nasıl kullanılabileceğini araştıran çalışmalar gözden geçirilmiştir.
