Being UnNormal

How Stigma Impacts Each Of Us


Listen Later

In this episode we welcome back friend of the show Cory Anton to talk about mental health stigma. We break down some of the truths of the therapeutic process, being patience during the treatment process, how stigma effects those with diagnoses, and how stigma prevents people from seeking the care they desperately need. Cory and I talk about medication stigma, how stigma impacts our approach to diagnoses, and some personal experience with how even the medical and behavioral health community can sometimes shame people in mental health crisis.

Social stigma is the disapproval of, or discrimination against, a person based on perceivable social characteristics that serve to distinguish them from other members of a society. Social stigmas are commonly related to culture, gender, race, intelligence, and health.
