Hi Fuzzy
You are so right. Stigma is one of the worst things. Unfortunately, I converted stigma into self stigma and then I fighting against it every single day. It is pervasive. I like this article Stigma of mental illness and ways of diminishing it | BJPsych Advances Maybe it is bit old, but I found it is good Sending you a big hug

I'm the same as you. Society's stigma has turned into self stigma. My family feels that I'm a better person being in medication so I hate needing medication even though I know it helps. I feel like having depression is my fault. It's awful. I hope our society will understand mental illness better soon.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
