by Assist. Univ. Dr. Cristina Schiopu
Stigma in Psychiatric treatment is a major barrier, leading to fear, shame, misinformation and underdiagnosed patients. It often stems from negative stereotypes, media misrepresentation, and a lack of mental health education, that leads us to believe common phrases like „there is no depression, you are too sensitive“. Reducing stigma and discrimination requires public education, advocacy, and integrating mental illness into general health services to normalize it as part of routine care.
Dr Schiopu will help us understand the root causes and ways to deal with the stigmas in a conference this Thursday 7th of November at 18:30 in Amphitheater Negel.
Join us in this conference to contribute in creating a safe, sympathetic and supportive environment for people to seek treatment!
