I mean that we each have ideas about mental illness, our own mental illness that are impacted by the stigmatizing messages we received in our lives. Sometimes I don't know whether the most difficult stigma is what is directly coming from the outside or from the messages I tell myself. I don't know how much of my depression is due to internalized stigma.
