What is Mental Health Stigma?
"It refers to the negative attitudes, preconceptions, and ideas that society at large has about those who struggle with mental health issues or disorders. It involves mistreating someone and discriminating because of their mental health. There are many types of stigma: self, public, and systematic. Understanding the multifaceted nature of stigma is crucial in comprehending the challenges individuals face with mental health".
