Abstract

From the cartography method conduction, this  research sought to investigate, with workers and users of a psychosocial care center, the ways of everyday invention of mental health care, considering the effects of micropolitics of work and the pandemic context of COVID-19. Health work, in this sense, is a micropolitical production among all the actors involved in the territory in which the Psychiatric Reform takes place in daily life, going through numerous challenges in a field of forces and clashes for the consolidation of a psychosocial care model based on care in freedom, citizenship and autonomy of users of mental health services. In order to carry out the investigation, cartography was established in two acts: in the first one, with a collective of workers from a psychosocial care center, the tool ‘user-guide’, which intends to build the narrative of a user’s care path; in the second, together with the users of the same service, their unique paths were built in the search for mental health care.
