When it comes to breaking the social stigma on mental health, there are tons of professional advice written in books and resources on the internet. The truth is, these pieces of advice are easier said than done.
The severe impact of social stigma transcends race, social status, religion, and gender preferences. More than a mindset problem, it is rather systemic in nature. Oftentimes, the burden on the person suffering mental health issues is aggravated by social stigma leading to more serious complications.
