It would seem stigma is alive and well....especially if you are unfortunate enough to be unable to work or unable to work a sufficient amount to make a livable income due to said mental health issue. Then god forbid you burden the taxpayers who actually 'earn' their money.
I try my best not to accept stigma but with so much of it floating around essentially everywhere, its very hard not to feel like a worthless piece of crap, especially when I already fight that on a daily basis just due to how I feel with the depression bringing me down even without being exposed to any stigma.
