Anyone
can be stigmatised at work, university
or home by a friend, family member,
stranger or someone on social media.
The
common diagnosis is depression followed by anxiety, schizophrenia, bipolar
disorder OCD and eating disorders.
There's a lot more of what people say or think mental
health is and they just don’t get it.
Raise awareness of the damaging effects
of ignorance and
discrimination of those who have to experience the stigma surrounding mental
health.
People
have their own problems that they are trying to deal with themselves and the
stigma causes them to feel worse about themselves.
People
need to understand because you cannot see it, it is still there.
If
you had some sort of chest or viral infection, you would go ask for help, you
would go to the doctors. It is the same as having mental health problems - just
because you cannot see your chest or viral infection, it is still there, you
are still affected by it, you still have physical symptoms from it – just like mental health.
Feedback
Focus on one topic - is it to make people aware? Is it to stop stigmatisation? Is it to make supposed to make people talk to each other about issues they're facing?
